One of the things we say in DBMA is "The Search for the Totality of Ritual and Reality".
In the Reality category we have, for example, our "Die Less Often" DVD series (currently two releases, should be 4 releases by year's end). And we will gradually begin offering practical reality items in our catalog too. Typically these items will not be weapons-- there will be practical things such as emergency medical kits (you survived the knife attack, but you are bleedling badly. Now what?), mini-flashlights, cool "just in case" things to carry in your car or to set up for your wife to have in her car, walking sticks, and things of that sort. Now, no doubt some of you may be thinking that some of these items can be improvised weapons too. No doubt some of you would like that we sell weapons too! But then Pay Pal would be unhappy and be unwilling to do business with us. That said
we will be kicking things off with some key fobs. Huh? Key fob? Wuzzat?
=======================
Woof All:
As defined on Wikipedia, "a key fob is a generally decorative and at times useful item many people often carry with their keys, on a ring or a chain, for ease of tactile identification, to provide a better grip, or to make a personal statement. Key fobs are often called "key rings" or "key chains" in colloquial usage. The word fob may be linked to the low German dialect for the word Fuppe, meaning "pocket", however, the real origin of the word is unknown."
Made for the esthetics and hands of dainty women and the men they rule, the simple fact of the matter is that most fobs simply are too dainty and delicate to meet the demands of folks like ourselves. "Ease of tactile identification" for us means something big and sturdy and these sturdy hard plastic fobs are exactly that.
When you are rooting around in your gym bag looking for your eyes amongst your training gear, you want something big and obvious.
When you are looking for your keys around the house, you want something big and obvious.
When you are wearing gym shorts or sweats, which when they have pockets at all have pockets which are rather untrustworthy for something as important as your keys, you want a practical solution and these fobs give you just that! Just tuck the fob down your shorts or sweats and let the keys dangle outside-- its just that easy.
As seen in the fotos in our catalog (any day now- when Cindy gets them up), we offer five basic models: two different lengths of tapered, one cylindrical, and one cylindrical with a loop so you can choose the one that suits you for your every day carry. The fifth model is a softer and relatively pliable version for those of you who prefer that.
In a related vein, we also offer a sturdy manly sized stylus-- no more fussing around with dainty little styluses made for soft unathletic
hands. It the size and appearance of a normal pen (pocket clip included of course) and is made of the same hard, easily gripped material as the key fobs.
The Adventure continues!
