I shoot in a necktie and i work in one as well. I am now often the only person on an airplane in a tie. The wearing of ties in the year of our Lord 2011 is as offensive to the riffraff as were the first tattoos to the "suits" in the 80 s. I find this satisfying.

- Tacitus, Germania
"One must work in solitude as a man who opens a clearing in virgin forest, sustained by the unique hope that somewhere in its depths, others are working to the same end."
- Ernst Jünger
"I find that I must go handsomely, whatever it costs me, and the charge will be made up in the fruit it brings."

I agree with Jeeves. It is with ties as it is with Champagne: "In victory, you deserve it, in defeat, you need it".
I hope this current trend reverses and gentlemen again wear neckties more often.
Light years away!
The strange thing is that tie sales seem to be booming!
Yes, yes, yes!

I have between 300-500 neckties. I tend to wear but a dozen or so.
In a bar brawl, always remember to shed it straight away; it is a noose around your neck.
