Truth in Advertising Department

[alexxkay]

I was talking with kestrell the other day about how wrist watches have largely become obsolete. Practically everyone has a cell phone and/or PDA which they can tell time with. The only real use for wrist watches now is as fashion. Or, I suppose, because you're so used to the idea of wearing one that you do it out of habit.

I was walking past a jewelry store recently, and glanced in the window. They were advertising a new line of Seiko watches. The brand name? "Citizen fossil".

hate to tell you, but the "Fossil" line has been around for easily 15 years. This may be a new joint venture with Citizen watches, or a new design group in the Fossil line.

I used to wear a watch on my ankle. It didn't get in the way of my hands. And it was silly.
