Of the reasons I've come across, this, from some chappy called Warren St John in 'The New York Times', sounds like the most likely:<br /><br />"Perhaps most of all, wearing a bow tie is a way of broadcasting an aggressive lack of concern for what other people think."<br /><br />Also, I think wearing a bow tie is a way of broadcasting that you don't anticipate ever having sex again.<br /><br />I'm gonna need a whole website to cover what's wrong with chiropractors.Kettlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555996290361714986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-479564812187394191.post-84056644401408187402010-02-16T15:43:19.754+11:002010-02-16T15:43:19.754+11:00Ramon, oh dear oh dear
