A great article about bow ties. Here are some highlights (and remember, no one ever asked you to read this blog!):
"A bow tie is like a wrapped gift. If I wore one every day, it wouldn't be a treat."
"Never wear a clip-on bow tie. Never admit you even know anyone who does."
"Tying a bow tie is like tying your shoes in the dark while drunk."
"A bow tie is like the ideal life: You have to play with it, tweak it, to get it right. Even then, of course, it's always a bit askew. But it should be."
How to read the bow tie: "The little-polka-dot people are generally lawyers, professors, or doctors. Stripes are what these same lawyers, professors, or doctors wear on weekends--more informal. A tie with a single stripe and little figures like animals represents a club--golfing, social, or professional--to which the wearer belongs. You will be expected to know this and not to inquire as to what these little figures mean."
"Men who wear bow ties care more about themselves than they do about you."
"Do not wear bows all the time. Keep the viewer off balance. Wear them once in a while, the way you might eat liver."
Overheard to a bow tie wearer: "Which are you?A waiter or a clown?"

Now that I we have a blog, I suppose I will probably end up reading more of other people's blogs as well. So as a means of supporting your bow tie post, I'll make a comment. I think it was a good post, and I hope to one day be man enough to wear a bowtie.
