I have a confession.





I have been using the same knotted necktie since 1998. That's right. The day before I left for university, my dad helped me by putting a tying a tie around my neck, and I have never untied it. That's 13 years, folks (and counting).





In 2006, I got a new tie for a wedding, but before leaving the store, I had the salesman help me out. He tied the tie for me, and when he went to take it off (after I agreed to purchase it), I told him that it was okay - I'll take it off myself. I took it off, ever so gently so as not to untie the knot, and placed it in the bag.
