    As the only female in the house, why is it that I am the only one who knows how to tie a necktie? Because, in the marching band in high school many, many years ago, we wore ties with our uniforms. I taught my grandson and now he ties his grandfather's ties for him. Great lens for those who can't seem to get it.
