    What are you listening to?

    Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a CD of the Connecticut Twins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjrvofVxtDQ

    First TV show you ever watched (and can recall)

    The first TV show I can recall watching was Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. I don't remember exactly how old I was, but I was probably either 2 or 3 years old. I also remember writing him two letters, both which received kind replies from Fred Rogers himself.

    What are you listening to?

    I am not currently listening to it as I post, but I was listening to Polka Jammer Network before.

    How would you earn a living?

    I would probably be a musician playing the Accordion or Piano. It would probably be easier for me to be a musician, since I only play old genres. Either that, or I would work on a farm or in a factory, as they have better pay than being a cashier. Or maybe I would be a musician and have a job...

    Show us your TIES

    On a knot planned tie, such as this one, how many inches is it from the tip to the knot color? Specifically on a 48 inch tie.

    What would you miss most?

    I would miss the iPod, or similar portable music devices. However, I would find it much easier to find music, since back then music was real music, unlike today, where 99% of music is garbage.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Nutty Professor (the original one, not the remake from the 90's).

    What modern invention/innovation do you wish had *never* been developed?

    I completely loathe those whom make malware. They are one of the reasons to never apply for a job online, do online banking, and other things which can easily be affected by hackers and malware creators. Just one click, and one of these scammers can install their vile creation to your computer...

    What are you wearing today??

    Today I am wearing my new homemade American flag necktie.

    Show us your TIES

    I made yet another new tie today. This one is the shortest of them all, at 48 inches long (the others are about 52 inches long). The fabric is from the same Ben Franklin in Chatham Cape Cod as the Golf fabric.

    What Are You Reading

    I am currently reading two books. One is Of Mice and Men. The other is This Saint Will Change Your Life.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Dead Poets Society. It is a good movie, but I feel they could have done a better job on the hairstyles. Practically no man in the movie has any hair product in his hair at all. I could be incorrect, but it seems to me that history says otherwise, and most men used hair products.

    The general decline in standards today

    It is quite possible that I said this before, but it seems that 95% of comments on Youtube are either immature, irrelevant, rude, nonsensical, or all of the above.

    What modern invention/innovation do you wish had *never* been developed?

    Why must almost every magazine in the checkout shelves at the supermarket feature scantily clad or half naked women on them?

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Horse Whisperer. However, I did not finish watching it, because it was on past 9:00, and around 9:00 I always fall asleep.

    Reactions from people...

    I had two people complement my homemade golf necktie last week while visiting relatives on the cape. The first guy is a member of a band (he used to be the leader), and he is in his late 80's - Early 90's. He complemented both my tie, and my clothes. Later in the week, I got a second complement...

    Spectator Shoes

    I do indeed know of Allen Edmonds. However, I am looking specifically for spectator shoes with completely white tops, like the one I posted. This variety seems very difficult to find interestingly. The Walk-Overs seem good then I guess, but an issue that arises is the fact that the sellers may...

    Show Us Your Purchases....GUYS !

    I posted this elsewhere on these forums, but I guess I will post them here too. The one on the top is made by Flex-Let Quality (or at least that's what it says on the back), and I got it at an antique store. The owner said that it was probably from the 60's or 70's, but I think it may be...

    Spectator Shoes

    I found these shoes on Amazon. They are exactly what I am looking for, but they are made by Walk-Over, a company I have never heard of. Does anyone have any experience with this company, and are they any good? These are the shoes
