Heh.. learned that in mili'try school

Now I can't say that the 'dimple' part resonates (while we're discussing rilly Important stuff.) Do you mean that, the ~flat outer surface of the er vee-shaped 'knot-covering' should be drawn just tight enough that it isn't perfectly smooth? / has a teeny wrinkle? (Which sounds like ~ "See? he ties it every. morning. and, gets it juust-Right: What A Leader of Men!") Gawd, the fragility of homo-sap $-mating rituals; no surprise how little actual thought happens in the bizness enviro.. get a drop of sweat-from-brow - - on your Armani?! :-0

The full (or double) Windsor is only for spread-collar shirts, which I don't have any of. The four-in-hand is the lazy, crappy one. And [link\|http://www.boardroomties.com/tiedimple.html\|this] is the dimple. Do a Windsor -- full or half -- without it and the top of the tie looks like a candy-cane. === Purveyor of Doc Hope's [link\|http://DocHope.com\|fresh-baked dog biscuits and pet treats].

Amazing that C-man went 13 years of Catholic schools without ever learning the skill. Guess that is a skill in and of itself!
