I also remember those wraparound torture device temple pieces.

I may be incorrect, but I believe the original aviators were AO - American Optical. I know they were (probably still are) standard issue.

Bingo- that is exactly of whom I was thinking. She wants me to get RBs, but the AOs look close enough.

I have both, and while the Raybans are more comfortable, and have better (polarized) lenses, they are also several times more expensive. AOs are sturdy and look more expensive than they are.

I was going to start a post about something. Unless you're on reflective surfaces, like water while fishing, are polarized lenses really worth it? The price difference between normal AO lenses and polarized is $41- I don’t see the real benefit.

I have the non polarized version and they are fine. And it makes it easier to use electronic devices with screens.

New watch.

New shoes and boots! Allen Edmonds

Wool & Prince merino shirts. The red one is a bit on the thin side. But I like it. I think this will pair nicely with my Higgs Boson bow tie.

The white/natural work shirt is a much heavier fabric, 170 GSM I believe. It’s a little boxier than the red and wears well untucked.

Very nice. I like the color.

After 20 years of being a blue shirt (it seems all sim shops have adopted dark blue for simulator techs), my company has said that senior lead techs are eligible for red. I got five, and the great thing is that they are performance material. Hopefully this means I am more like Mr. Scott and not just the average red shirt (gets killed on the planet surface).

Three new Van Heusen shirts to go with the new suit. Red, white and blue.

Yes, it's been my experience that you NEVER want to be cast in a red shirt role.
