« Manly Watch Accessory: Seiko Kinetic Winder | Main | Why a Caprice with a Crass Watch Is So Dangerous to the Soul »
There's something about a strong fan that produces wind gusts that are very assuring to a man who's trying to stay cool whether he be reading Flaubert or doing kettlebell workouts. I don't know of a fan with a higher reputation than the Air King. I have its lower version, the Lasko, made by the same company. But from what I hear, the Air King is their "Cadillac."

I'm happy with my compact but very powerful Vornado fan. My wife bought it. It's black----but small enough to fit on a table or dresser. But if it's a large floor fan you must have, like the one shown here----there's an amazing sale going on now at Rite Aid and they do have some fans left. Summer items----75% off. So for around fifteen dollars, you can get a big, powerful fan that looks like this one----might even be the Lasko.

Love fans. Real men don't need air conditioning!

I love them too. I just bought the 65 dollar Lasko (20 inch) on Amazon for our living room. I prefer to keep the AC OFF.

Real men don't need air conditioning, unless you live in Phoenix, Arizona

...or Houston, Texas.

Oh---by the way, big correction: Rite Aid's 75% Off Summer Clearance DID NOT include the Lasko fans. It included cheaper "fashion" fans, but not the Laskos. Those were 25% off and have now been put away until next Summer, when they'll sell at regular price (at least at the Rite Aid I was in). And by the way, I'm serious about the "fashion fans." They are a Rite Aid house brand----and have leopard prints, stripes, etc. on them. They are small desktop fans----maybe for dorm rooms. Fashion fans. It's not just the watches Jeff, it's not just the watches.
