Knot Answers

The answers to the knot trivia are as follows: Knot A- Granny Knot (This is probably the knot you are tying if your shoes come untied frequently, or you use a double knot to keep them from coming untied.) Knot B- Reef Knot. Some people call it the Square Knot, but a Square Knot is a completely different animal. (This is the base for a properly tied shoe.) Knot C- This is called a Thief Knot. Sailors used it to tie up their possessions in bags. It looks similar to a Reef Knot and then they could tell if someone had been stealing from them because the thief would surely use a Reef Knot to retie the bag. Unlike a Reef Knot it will easily come undone when pulled on. Brett got 100% on the first two, and half credit on the extra credit question. He's the only one who who even tried. It's like you people don't care about properly tied shoes. What's the matter with you. (Excuse me while I breathe in to a paper bag.) ..........OK, all better now.
