Day 78 – Deep Space Nine

 

I have been on a search for a good bow tie costume from the upcoming Star Trek Las Vegas Convention that includes a bow tie. However, I did come across this “Bashir, Julian Bashir – The Spy Who Healed Me” video. However, it was not what I was looking for. I did remember that in Star Trek: The Next Generation there was a Mr. Whalen in a bow tie for the episode “The Big Goodbye.” Perhaps, if anyone remembers a good episode that I can watch and see if I can create a good Star Trek costume using a bow tie, they would be so kind as to let me know. Thanks.

Day 72 – Bow Tie Tuesday for Everyone

Another bow tie Tuesday but  today’s post will focus on Nicholas Ruiz’s blog (Made in Forest Hills) on two bow tie personalities, Jeffrey Armando Vasquez and Aaron Cocjin (seen in Day 34). Both of these gentlemen have committed to wearing bow ties each day. I suggest you visit them. Bow ties can mean many things but to some, it is a commitment and passion to live.
