CC-FLP-SL Be Wilder With the Floppy Disk   It’s safe to say we’re now well into the 21st Century.  We’re long and away from dial-up phones and dial-up modems, brick-sized phones, and cathode-ray television monitors.  We’re long gone from the days when 386 computers were the latest in computer technology and pizza was delivered in 30 minutes or less or it’s free.  Things are changing so rapidly that sometimes it’s tough to keep abreast of what the latest technology can do.  Just to check this out, wear a pair of these Floppy Disk Cufflinks to work or wherever, and see if anyone recognizes them.  Chances are, if they do they’re older than twenty-five.  Watch how many times you have to explain what they are.  Maybe they’ll remember them, but it’s been something that has been done away with by digital media like portable thumb drives and the miracle of high speed internet.  Imagine seeing a computer that still utilizes floppies; what could 1.5 megabytes save these days?  Half a song?  Word processing documents and the like?  Funny cufflinks like these will no doubt give you a lot of amusement, as well as some sparkle and fun that silver cufflinks can give to your outfit.  It may have not been too long ago when the 3.5 inch floppy was a mainstay of computer systems but in the years to come as thumb drives slowly phase out in favor of something superior you can only get more and more amusement with these as you bewilder new generations with these relics of a budding Information Age society.

ST-ENT-SL These Are The Voyages of The Starship Enterprise

It could be said that the biggest star of all of the Star Trek shows is the USS Enterprise.  Without the Enterprise, in all likelihood the original Star Trek probably would not have worked out as well as it did.  Every space opera needs a distinctive ship and the Enterprise is arguably the most distinctive, and quite beautiful compared with fictional spacecraft such as the Battlestar Galactica or the Imperial Star Destroyer.  Created by modeler Matt Jeffries, the Enterprise’s design of a primary hull, a secondary hull, powered by two cigar-shaped engine nacelles is evocative in some ways of the old wooden ships of sail, where the primary means of motion was by means of sails on tall masts, resulting in the most iconic fictional spacecraft in the history of science fiction.  Unless you’ve been living in a cave like a hermit during the last forty or so years, you’d immediately recognize the Enterprise when you see it.  Recently she’s had numerous updates, with several incarnations to represent new versions of the starship Enterprise over the course of decades, but the general design had remained the same.  These Starship Enterprise Cufflinks retain the design of the ship from the Original Series.  Complete with the shield grid and the stenciled “NCC-1701,” these silver cufflinks will immediately be noticable on your sleeve, probably more quickly by the other Trek fans who see them.  Star Trek Cufflinks make great gifts to any sci-fi or Star Trek fan, and come in various designs from the shows and films to make them excellent collectors’ items.

p-1296 Never Be Without a Watch

Time is a luxury in this fast-paced high-tech world we live in.  It wasn’t too long ago, really, when we all just didn’t have clocks.  We measured time by where the sun was, giving us an approximation on how much actual daylight we had left to work in before we had to start lighting candles.  Unless you’re lazy or careless, time means a great deal to you.  Managing your time means maximizing your productivity to get what you want accomplished as fast and effectively as possible.  For that, you’ll need tools to help you organize; without them, you’ll eventually end up missing appointments, or working too long on one or two different things, and as a result you’ll end up more stressed.    Forget to wear your wristwatch just one day will be an annoyance.  To leave it behind for another in a row will raise your blood-pressure without you even realizing it.  Continually forgetting it will have you working later than you want, worried about deadlines and projects, and eventually you’ll hate what you do for a living as items to get done just seem to pile up.  With a set of watch cufflinks, on the other hand, you now have a very classy and distinctive back-up.  These gold cufflinks actually work, and if you should happen to forget your dress watch, or if it somehow quits on you, you’ve got a pair of stylish timepieces on your sleeves that you can turn on and off as you need.  Choose the Elegant Working Roman Numeral Gold Watch Cufflinks for that extra bit of style that’ll show to one and all how much you care for the precious time you have.  Because you can never replace any time that is lost, so try to make the most of it that you can.

CD-984 Good Luck Requires A Red Dragon

Since the beginning of time, the legendary, mythical dragon has been a creature we hold in awe. For the Chinese, they are a symbol of immortality, power, wisdom, and good luck. They are the reincarnation of their ancestors, and their endorsement is needed before any momentous decision is made. They are revered as the seat of all knowledge in their culture; dragons are placed as statues to ensure security for their homes, and good fortune for their families and business ventures. One must always take immense care not to draw the wrath of the dragon, his retribution is swift. In Chinese mythology, the dragon is the main character. You can see the relevant part dragons play in their architecture, literature, art, poetry, song, and all other aspects of their culture and conscience. Their emperors are the dragon incarnate; they sleep in the dragon bed and sit on the dragon throne. Dragons bring the rain and dragon kings sleep in the caves beneath the oceans. Like the dragon, the color red is representative of good luck and prosperity. A combination of the two is a harbinger of extraordinary luck. A red dragon is a symbol of power and luck and brings to the wearer a sense of feeling connected to that power and prosperity. One way they can be worn is on a pair of cufflinks. Men who try these red cufflinks with the image of a lone powerful dragon can feel the dragon close by. The Red Chinese Dragon Black Silver Cufflinks are appropriate for wearing by any man who exudes competence in work. The wearing of these silver cufflinks will bring the sharpness of your cuff into the sight of anyone, and your image can only be enhanced by their beauty.
