    Help with buying First SLR Camera

    I think I'm gonna go with the canon rebel xsi. I'm not sure if I should get the kit or body and then a better lense. If I got just the body I would have no idea what lense to pick or where to get it from.

    Brooks Brothers Ties at Marshalls

    Went to Marshalls today and saw some Brooks Brothers ties. Didn't buy any of them because I went to the tags and it said: irregular, was wondering what this meant as they looked basically fine to me but I was skeptical to buy.
