    I give the Oakley's five days in the field before I start regretting not getting real ones, but hey, they were only $3 each.

    I would be more worried about the lack of real UV protection and the sun damaging my eyes while they "think" they are protected.

    Yeah the lenses pretty much just tinted plastic. I have never really wore sunnies before so they're better than nothing. All they'll do is reduce any glare and make me look tacticool.

    Is the Beats by Dr. Dre real? I heard some cheap knockoffs and counterfeit products have been found in authentic boxes.

    Sound quality on the genuine ones probably wouldn't be much better.

    Not surprising. The genuine ones are probably sh*t, but are being sold $50 or more because it has Dr.Dre's name on it.

    Look at something, then bring the lenses over your eyes, if the object moves significantly, you're in for more trouble than they're worth.

    No problem there. Slight movement, but barely noticeable.

    A 7ft by 4ft maple table I had made by a local furniture maker. It was time for a grown up table.

    That's on my list, along with a charging dock.
