Tony, That brings a number of images to mind. Most of which cause my eyes to water and my nose to run. So I will not endulge these fantasies lest I saturate my aglets (if I stored any spares there).

:coffee:

Max the wunderdog loves to chew them off the laces.

The only thing I'd decide is if that person was ****-retentive. lol I've never considered aglets as a personality definition...

Aglets are rarely ***y.

I thought aglets were meant to be worn around the waist.

See William Style of Langley.

EDIT: From Science Daily: "A review of relevant literature and paintings from European sources revealed that the most likely origin of the tubes was not beads but strung together lacetags, or aglets, from European clothing. From the 15th century onwards, these were used to prevent the ends of laces from fraying, and to ease threading in the points for fastening clothes such as doublets and hose. Examples of such usage include a 1636 portrait of William Style of Langley (Tate Gallery, London), which depicts the use of aglets in his waist to secure his trousers through his jacket."

Somehow I missed this thread until now.

Must have thought it involved small eagles or something. Anyway you can tell I'm reading the posts in reverse order now:

My favorite Franklin Mint statue shows a bald aglet in flight with one perfect tear in its eye, wolves carrying American flags in their mouths running below, all superimposed on a cut glass etching of the WTC with gold inlay spelling out "Never Forget".
