14. I worked for a large men's clothing retailer at the time. You'd know the name.

We had people coming in all the time asking "Have you got any Rush ties?"

People who looked like they showered only when they remembered to, shaved last around the time Reagan was President, and had a wardrobe consisting entirely of denim. But they wanted Rush's shitty ties.

I was always happy to tell them 'no.' The CEO of this clothing retailer was a well-established liberal Democrat.
