My dad always wore a red tie whenever he was unusually angry. The problem was, whenever he got happier, he was still wearing his red angry tie. I propose a 'Watch my rage tie' that gets progresively red according to your stress levels.

I would call this type of thing a "mood tie". Goes well with the mood lip gloss. |
|

What I would really like to watch is a cross between a sweater that was a plot point in one of the Rudy Rucker novels (wetware?) and this tie - measure the wearer's pulse, and display it as expanding colored ripples from the throat downwards. If each ripple ring has constant width, faster/slower pulse results in a color change. |

[The Rucker sweater displayed the wearer's heart beats. How this might turn into a plot point is left as an exercise to the reader.] |

Yes then you could avoid the businessman rage thatI have expirienced way too many times, those breifcases sting like a motha. |

Speaking from the professional world, a "mood-tie" would be good for men, but we have to come up with something for the women as well. This world is annoying fake (worse than the movies), and I think it would be totally stellar to cut through the B.S. beause the tie would tell all. Of course, this presumes mood apparel becomes mandatory. My question is would the tie register arousal? Because it would be great for THAT truth to come out in the work place as well. |

Jutta, you admit to having read the "ware" series? What a horrible cluster of novels! |
|
| |
Neat ideas mind you, Rucker's a walking halfbakery all on his own, but the characterization is something out of an Italian "horse opera" western... |
|
| |
Oh, wait, this is the wrong idea for country references, isn't it? |
|
| |
[bear, If you think Rucker's characters are cardboard, I dare you to get through Marvin Minsky's cooperative foray into fiction. You'll come back begging forgiveness like the lonely narrator of a Johnny Cash song... |

For invention-rich stories visibly not written by a computer science professor, I enjoyed reading Jeff Noon's collection of short stories "Pixel Juice".] |

What does a blue tie stand for? |
|
| |
What if you're angry at not being able to
find your tie? |
|
| |
More to the point, what if you're angry AT your tie? |
|
| |
When the tie reaches boiling point just pull the rip cord. <link> |
