"War is like playing a game of chess.  You move units on a field, and stratiegically try to weaken the opposing force, a sort of... elequent ballet.  Sure you might lose a few units,.... but, at times, it all part of the plan..."

Truth is, as soon as you're born, you're old!  My cousin had a kid not more than a week ago, and that kid is now a week OLD!  So, old, in fact, that she's completely out of style with all the other young, hip kids.  I hear she's thinking about suicide since she knows that in another 30 years, she'll have wrinkles.  The poor thing.

With little need to practice, most of them do not know how to tie a tie.

That's awful.

I was born in 1986 and will turn 19 in a few days. So I guess I am just barely old.

As far as my brain is concerned, I stopped aging in the year 2000. My brain is too lazy to do the math to go any further.

Basically if you were born on or after 1987, I'd reflexively assume you were 13 years old or younger. Until higher reasoning kicked in and went "Hey, wait a minute..."

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I just use those clip-on ties on the extremely rare occasions that I have to wear them.

I wear them all the time in the fall and winter. I derive my cold-weather fashion from The Great Gatsby.

I have to wear a tie everyday to work =)


And at a camp this summer we actually bought our kids cheap ties and taught them the Full Winsor.  It was hilarious.
