In July 2006 The Rake published an excellent essay [1] by my good friend Peter Schilling in which he enthused about his SolarShield Fits-Overs - these, in essence, are some cheap and ugly-ass sunglasses that fit right over existing eyewear. Well, Mr. Schilling wrote today to inform he's not the only male, Minneapolis-based media figure rocking his $14.99 Fits-Overs. Writes Schilling: "Head on over to today's blogumentary [2] to see Chuck Olsen's take on last Friday's critical mass. Watch the video. You will notice, about a minute in, that fearless filmmaker Olsen, braving the streets and risking jail, is doing so wearing SolarShield Fits-Overs!"
