My husband just recently started wearing bow ties on Fridays. He calls it bow tie Friday and his students look forward to it. I came home one afternoon and found my husband running back and forth from his laptop to the bathroom mirror, trying to teach himself how to tie a bow tie. I asked him why he hadn't just brought the laptop into the bathroom with him. This all started because Dr. Who said bow ties are cool. I guess my husband will be wearing a Stetson next. I purchased this particular tie as a surprise for him to wear on Halloween, even though it falls on a Wednesday and not a Friday.
