I agree. No noose is good noose.

OK - I'll get back on the meds.

Darn you, Padgett. I just expelled a whole mouthful of soda all over everywhere.

I use the noose style lanyard because the "Smitty" style was too short. When I raised my head up very high, it yanked my shirt up which bothered me.

I prefer the noose as well. I find it easier to put in on and off. I get all cross-eyed trying to put on the Smitty.

I've had two lengths of smitty lanyards....one for V necks and one for collared/zippered shirts. The V neck one is a little longer so that it doesn't yank up on the shirt when you raise your head. I only see one offered on honigs now...perhaps they only sell the longer one now.

That reminds me of the time I (Cacausian) went with a couple African-American partners to do a basketball game in a town that was all-white as well as the visitors. My partners were the only non-whites in the gym that night. Someone from the stands yelled "hey, if the token white guy makes a bad call, there's always that noose around his neck!" I tried not to laugh, as well as my partners. Wow.
