I’m hoping a good friend of mine reads this entry because he’s been having trouble choosing a new pair of glasses. I think these are for him for two reasons: he’s a big Lou Reed fan and he’s near sighted -I think. Anyhow, I found these advertised on Lou Reed’s Website, apparently Lou says that these flip-up lenses are good for people tired of taking off their glasses to read a menu or to peep through a telescope pointed into your neighbors window. Hey, that’s a market!

“people were all over me to get a pair BECAUSE I COULD LOOK THROUGH A TELESCOPE EASILY BY SIMPLY FLIPPING THE LENSES. ” - Lou Reed referring to the crowd at a NASA space shuttle launch he recently attended wearing a pair.

But ultimately I think my friend should get these so he can “be cool again and don’t look like your high school teacher.”- Loureed.org

So far we don’t have a category for engineering, but maybe I should add one.
