I don’t think you have to be a suit to read the Wall Street Journal. I purchase it on occasion. "Mac" in the ad looks like a credible subscriber to me. And the Norwegian equivalent of it, Dagens Næringsliv, is read by some of the hippest people I know. In fact, I would venture to say that its (DN) Saturday edition is far and away the country’s best newspaper.
And for those who don’t read the WSJ, rest assured that Mr Mosberg’s musings are quoted in publications throughout the world. He truly is respected.
But I wouldn’t be caught with a necktie more than two-three times a year. Tops. I coined a phrase about neckties; roughly translated:
"Ties strangle clear thinking."
:cool:
