I decided not write write anything geeky or techy today, but instead talk about another love of my life... My sunglasses. Some people like to walk around sporting $200 Raybans, or $300 Oakleys. I on the otherhand hate paying for expensive sunglasses mainly because I lose them all the time.
No, my favorite pair of sunglasses only costs roughly $6.00. Cheap compared to Raybans right? Perhaps, but can your Raybans withstand a forklift being driven over them? I doubt it. Mine can though. They are Hercules Sunglasses from Global Vision. Check out this video:
I have owned several pairs of these, not because they have broken or worn out, but like I said above, I tend to misplace my sunglasses. At $6.00 it's not that big of a deal. The first pair I had for over four years though, and they were as good as the first day I bought them.
What got me writing about them now is I just had to buy some new ones, because I lost my last pair. I'm pretty sure there are Gremmlins in my house or something.
