He probably still wears a tie to church. I'm not honestly sure whether the men at my office wear them.

(Our classroom is the first one between the parking lot and the school that has a coach.) It's about the only time any of these guys wear them on a regular basis. It's funny to see them come in, tie in hand, looking for Daniel and he isn't there. I've even learned to tie one although I don't know the name for it. It's just the regular 'tie' knot.<br>Jackie Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7035517739895851365.post-44576430409124458892006-06-07T08:07:00.000-07:002006-06-07T08:07:00.000-07:00Even funnier, to me, is that she probably bought a...Even funnier, to me, is that she probably bought all the ties that MY husband Roddy donated, most from the 60's and 70's...quite wild!

A different era, but a much better one, when kids had respect for their elders, we asked permission to leave the table after a meal and violence of any sort wasn't tolerated. Hubby used to be very finicky over his tie knots, they had to be just right. Can't remember the last he wore one, or a suit and highly polished shoes. Now it's jeans in varying colours, polo tops and dealer boots! <br>Take care.<br>Love Sylvia x<br>http://journals.aol.co.uk/sylviam4000/YeOldeEnglishPosy/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7035517739895851365.post-1404932747707617292006-06-07T22:25:00.000-07:002006-06-07T22:25:00.000-07:00I think that is an excellent lost art format. I...I think that is an excellent lost art format. I didn't think that I remembered how to tie a knot but it just was like riding a bike. I think it is one of the greatest traditions we have. I think it illustrates respect and honor. If I could give some history to the tie that I have read. During the Revolutionary War "Huns" were recruited by the British. The Huns' had a bad habit of wiping their noses with their coats arm material. The British incorporated the "tie" for them to wear to wipe their noses with as an altenative. I feel that the tie is something that has grown to symbolise a sacred and cultural endearment of respect.
