"Ok Mr. Kent, why do you always vanish when the big blue guy shows up?"
Niceâ€"very hipster. Is that your daughter in the first photo?
Very nice.. looks just like mine.
Yes, that is my youngest Catherine. She is 11 years young.
:)
Nice glasses. I've been meaning to get new ones myself, but I never got around to it. Plus going to the optometrist is like going to the dentist for me: I hate it. :)
Anyways, they look great on you. ;)
Thanks everybody... i'm blushing. :blush
They sure have come a long way from when I was a kid. (I sound old.) I went to Walmart and had the exam for $60. They took me in a room used two machines that looked at my eye, it made a reccomendation for the Optometrist who used a little gadget on my eyes just to make sure the machine got it right and ... TADA! I had my perscription. Then I ordered my cheapo frames, the expensive lens so the stigmatizm in my right eye would behave and in four days I had my new glasses. Quick and painless. Ah, technology! I didn't even need my eyes dialated. How cool is that? :ohbaby
Great glasses. They look good on you.
I also wear glasses but I'm thinking about having that Lasik procedure done on my right eye (my left eye is fine). I still need to do all my research concerning that procedure though.
Wow, this is my 100th post. Yay! :cheering
I've known a few dudes that had Lasik - they all came out great! Most got back to near 20/20. Cool glasses dude.
Very nice
Yes, nice looking Glasses. I need to get myself a new set. I got my Wife a new set last year, but did not get any for me. So this year it is my turn :)
I have been told I have super hero vision. But I sit in front of a giant monitor for 8 hours a day...I'm sure I'll have to wear them in a few years. If I do, I'll be sure to pick some cool ones like yours. ;)

That's way cool. I went to ShopKo recently for an exam. It was the normal kind - "Which is better, 1? or 2?" over and over again. They ordered lenses for the frame I already had - which they sold - and a week later when they came in they'd ordered the wrong material, so they were twice as thick as they were supposed to be. So they sent them back. A week later when they came in, they didn't fit in the frames. They'd made them too big. So they sent them back. A week later the lenses came in, the right size, but the wrong prescription. I couldn't see. Gah! A week later (total of 4 now) they come in and they finally work. It only took them a MONTH to get them right. Guess where I won't be going next time I need glasses.

Murphy's Law #2
Everything takes longer than you think.
Murphy's Law #3
Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
Murphy's Law #4
If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to occur. Corollary: If there is
a worse time for something to go wrong, it will happen at that time.
For a list of all of Murph's Laws go here...You may need them ;) :

Yeah, that about covers it. I guess I should be grateful they got my contacts right on the very first try.

That's why I go to Lenscrafters. It might be more expensive, but I get my glasses in one hour. And they've never goofed up.
Yeah we are Lenscrafters users also.. and they always seems to be having deals and if you are an AAA member you can get an additional discount.
Hey guys, are we all speccys?
