Quote from Jerry in The Wig Master
[stand-up:] Jerry: I was thinking about the wig historically. I guess the revolutionary war was the last war fought in wigs. And it seems that it must have been hard. You know, they're going in to battle thinking, "Well, do I have my bullets? Do I have my bobby pins?" You got to make sure you have everything. A lot more to worry about, "What if I get killed? Is my wig on straight?" I don't know when the whole wig thing came in to style for men, but I know when it went out. When the mirror was invented. No guy is looking in the mirror powdering a thatch of horsehair on his head going, "All right! Let's go rap to the ladies."
