Ahh,, the nasal self conscious pitch of a voice that mocks, but never offers, the look of rumpled and harried perfected even when there is no hurry at all, the purposefully windsor knotted tie, the look of a long time DC resident this one looks to be the perfect “gollum” to the machismo of Rolling Thunder, the mere whiff of testosterone sends them scurring along in pursuit of the haven of false intellect and gazing at the works of others, never daring to compare...
“A work of art can lift you up from the mishmash of life, the weight of the unintelligible world, and the situations where vulgarity squats on you like an enormous toad and won’t get off.”
Garry, you ARE a vulgar enormous toad! A great many of those bikers you so despise are Veterans!
Perhaps he’s more of a vulgar enormous load!
Windsor Knot
The Windsor Knot is a thick, wide and triangular tie knot that projects confidence. It would therefore be your knot of choice for presentations, job interviews, courtroom appearances etc. It is best suited for spread collar shirts and it’s actually quite easy to do.
While just about everyone can use this tie knot to tie his tie, it looks especially well on men with longer necks as its wide form shortens the perceived height of the neck a little bit.
To tie the Windsor Knot, select a tie of your choice and stand in front of a mirror. Then simply follow the steps below:
1) The wide end “W” should extend about 12 inches below the narrow end “N”. Cross the wide end “W” over the narrow end “N”.
2) Bring the wide end “W” up through the loop between the collar and your tie; then back down.
3) Pull the wide end “W” underneath the narrow end “N” and to the right, back through the loop and to the right again so that the wide end “W” is inside out.
4) Bring the wide end “W” across the front from right to left.
5) Pull the wide end “W” up through the loop again.
6) Bring the wide end “W” down through the knot in front.
7) Using both hands, tighten the knot carefully and draw it up to the collar.
Congratulations, you did it! You see, it is not rocket science after all. Simply keep practicing the Windsor Knot a few more times until you can tie this necktie knot within less than 30 seconds.
