He is dear and true to my heart, though....

Widebrim said:Congratulations! And, again, it is not an ugly tie...
Widebrim said:^^Wow! What was this thing about the Bold Look and amoebas??[huh]
It seems there was some odd trend back in about the late forties to late fifties in tie design that featured abstract renditions of various protozoans. I have seen countless ties from the general era with designs that are reminiscent of something one would see under a microscope in a sample of pond water. Or maybe this was just The Atomic era version of a "paisley"? [huh]Widebrim said:^^Wow! What was this thing about the Bold Look and amoebas??[huh]

I see you just reached 2000 posts! Congrats!!! :eusa_clap I just need a few more to catch up so I'd better get crackin' lol
Widebrim said:Thanks. Well, start postin' some more ties, and you'll catch up!
Widebrim said:I think your last assumption is viable. But the question is, did Shemp wear any?
jamespowers said:You both have to post your entire collections to catch up.
Widebrim said:True, although hopefully I'll be selling some tomorrow at the Rose Bowl flea market (I do so once a year)...
