Tonight's tie, not a fan favorite, is a stripe which reminds me of the view outside my western bedroom window: the neigbor's grey weathered fence, topped by a span of sky which, on most summer mornings, is a satisfyingly pleasant blue. It's not distasteful, but it's not remarkable or inspiring, either.
On another note, this correction to the 19 July Tie: most definitely NOT Tie Which Shall No Longer Be Reviewed And Is Now Dead To Me. Upon further review and perusal of The Archives, the tie in question was found to be the Debut Tie of 21 June. Please read germane Tie Reports from Archive site as necessary.

Why Aren't There Pictures Of The Ties On This Blog?
I have to chuckle every time I get this question--and I get it more than I care to admit.
Putting photos of the ties on my blog would then render my descriptions totally unnecessary and extraneous, would it not? Why then, would I need to describe them if you could just look at them? If you would, however, like to witness the Sartorial Splendour of Bri's Ties, you can always do what I do--watch the newscast! If you aren't home or can't eke out that time, then after 10 PM, you can go to the MSNBC.com Nightly News site and play the webcast.

What does "TWSNLBRAINDTM" Mean?
This strange acronym stands for Tie Which Shall No Longer Be Reviewed And Is Now Dead To Me. Brian wore it with such shameless frequency and it is such a boring, pedestrian tie (which spawned a series of ties with the similar color combination and stripes--always stripes!) that I have forever refused to describe it ever again. If you wish to read a description of this awful tie, you may refer to the 2/19, 4/18, 5/3, 5/10, and 5/15 of the 2007 Tie Reports. After that, I went completely over the edge and conferred TWSNLBRAINDTM status.
