Does anyone still wear ties?
Wasn't sure whether to put this here or the death thread. One of my wife's former neighbors passed away. My stepdaughter grew up in their house, their daughter grew up in my wife's house, there were three girls that grew up together inseparable.
But on to the subject of the thread. The family is asking for the funeral guests to wear something green. I don't own a green dress shirt, nor any tie that would go with a green shirt. The wife wanted to go to a resale shop yesterday to look for fabric, so while she was looking, I wandered over to the men's section. I didn't find any green Dragon Azz jeans, but I did find a suitable J.C. Penney green shirt that looked practically new, and a fairly large selection of Jerry Garcia ties. I like some of his designs, I own a couple other of his ties, but these days they're only worn for weddings and funerals. So here's what I ended up with. Should work OK with a dark suit. Six bucks each. If we would have gone on a Tuesday, I would have got another 30% off.
