We are watching a movie about the Irish Republican Army and the British legal system. As you know, the judges, barristers and solicitors in British courts wear powdered wigs. My wife says, “Culture is so strange. Would you ever wear a wig? How would you pick the wig you want to wear?” I look up at the screen, see the accused sitting in court, and reply, “What is the difference between a wig and a necktie?”
Frank Zappa once said to a concert audience, “Everyone in this room is wearing a uniform, don’t kid yourselves.” And so we are.
