Father's Day Ties

It's that time of the year when the Sunday paper is full of ads for Father's Day gifts.

Shannon spotted the Kohl's ad in the paper yesterday, and right on the front of it was a dapper looking man in a tie sporting what is apparently the new style on how to wear it:

(But it's right there on the front page of the big ad. How could they have screwed that one up?) But there in the middle of the multi-page ad is another guy:
