Now Ken Lay me down to sleep
Contrary to popular opinion, the probe into Enron's deceptive business practices has been steadily moving up the chain of command, albeit much too slowly for our "I-want-it-and-I-want- it-now" culture. Why just yesterday, Enron's #3, Andrew Fastow, plead guilty to a couple of light fraud charges in exchange for a 10-year sentence and information on former Enron chair Kenneth "Kenny-Boy" Lay and former Enron president Jeff Skilling. In the full spirit of wanting to get the big boys, Fastow's wife was also allowed to plea guilty to minor charges so that she may stay home with the couples' children while daddy does his time in the clink. For those not in the know: the "Kenny-Boy" moniker was given to Lay by the Flyboy-in-Chief. Granted, I doubt there are those among us who have not been friendly with a criminal at some time or other.
