Fit to be tied

With Jimmy's being housebound so much, the television blares constantly, usually tuned to CNBC, which is heavily into constant blaring. One of the more annoying blarers, Larry Kudlow, asks his guests questions, then interrupts them mid-sentence when they've barely begun to answer.

But if you ever manage to get past his rudeness, you can't help noticing his wardrobe, with his boldly striped suits, his contrast-collar shirts, his pink or lilac polka-dotted ties. Curious, I googled him and learned that he wears bespoke suits by Savile-Row trained tailor Leonard Logsdail, and ties by Turnbull and Asser (by appointment to HRH the Prince of Wales), Vineyard Vines, and Venazi.

It used to be, when you wanted to know something, you'd go look it up in the World Book, or Encyclopedia Britannica, or a World Atlas, but information was hard to find. What a joy the Internet is, making such delicious trivia so immediately accessible.
