All my life I have rebelled against the "norm" - the "status quo" - and 
have been a noncomformist when it comes to personnel attire. I have 
steadfastly refused to wear ties, for example. I prefer function over 
form, and ties seem to serve no funtion whatsoever.

BUT, I am in my last year of training to become an elementary teacher, 
and as such, am doing a lot of field work. This requires a certain level 
of professionalism, inlcuding - you guessed it - wearing ties. Well, I 
figure if I have to wear the darn things, I'm going to have fun with it. 
So I'm out looking for fun/cool ties (I still refuse to wear the stoic, 
bland, brown/black/blue/striped/etc type)....

And what do I come accross? A tie covered with chiles! Red, orange, and 
green chiles, with black, shadow-like chiles in the background. Cool. 

This tie thing might not be so bad after all....
