Bill Nye told this joke when he visited MSU the other month...

People always ask me why I wear bow ties. Well, it's a family tradition. My father wore a bow tie and my grandfather did before him. The interesting part is how we started wearing them. You see, my grandfather was a doctor, and he was invited to a conference in New York City, and the invitation mentioned that the dress code was to include a bow tie. My grandfather had never tied a bow tie before in his life; in fact, he had to buy a bow tie right before he got on a train to New York.

Anyway, the night of the Conference came, and my grandfather stood in the room trying to tie the bow tie over and over, without a single successful result. Finally, exasperated, he looked at his watch. He was running out of time.

Without any other options, my grandfather walked out of his hotel room and knocked on the door of the next room. A man answered.

"I know this is strange, but I really need this bow tie tied, and I don't know how to do it. Could you help me?"

"Sure," The man said, "Just go lay down on the bed."

Confused, but without any other options, my grandfather laid on the bed, on his back wondering what on earth this man was about to do. Seconds later, the man came over and effortlessly tied a perfect knot with my grandfather's bowtie.

My grandfather thanked the man, but couldn't help to wonder.

"Why did you make me lie down on the bed?"

The man replied, "Well, you see, I'm an undertaker."
