John Rogers Home Page. Neckties.com Men's Silk Neckties and Bowties. Choosing the Right Knot for the Job Not all knots are created equal. Size, symmetry and shape can vary greatly from knot to knot and all should be taken into consideration. Thick ties often necessitate the use of smaller knots like the Four-in-Hand or the Simple knot.

One of the biggest thrills of "kinky" type play is the anticipation.It can even get a bit overwhelming at times.

It had been a while since we had our fun and I knew that that night we were going to really let it all hang out since neither of us worked the next day or really needed to do anything the next day. All day I was a wreck. I am sure my students had to know something was up, and at their ages, I am sure that quite a few of the girls at least had an idea of what I was on edge about, and how antsy I was looking forward to the evening.

It started out as everything I could hope for. We didn't get too dressed up, but we did go out for some dinner so that there would not need to be cooking or cleaning to look forward to.

[Warning: Extremely Colourful Language Ahead] This incredible memo, purportedly issued to all Major League Baseball teams in 1898 as part of a documented campaign — spearheaded by John Brush — to rid the sport of filthy language, was discovered in 2007 amongst the belongings of the late baseball historian Al Kermish, also a respected collector of memorabilia.

Essentially an on-field code of conduct, most amusing is that the memo was in fact so expletive-laden and obscene as to be "unmailable" to its intended audience via the postal service, and so was delivered by hand to each of the League's 12 clubs and their foul-mouthed players. A fascinating document.

(It's worth noting that experts are somewhat divided about the document, with some believing it to be a satirical memo, circulated amongst players at the time in response to what was a very real campaign within the organisation. Either way, very notable. Discussion can be found here, here, and here.) Transcript follows. Transcript.
