Remember Ring
The Remember Ring is designed to do exactly what its name says it will: aid in remembering an important date or event. Each ring has a tiny clock and battery within and, to remind you of a special day, it gently heats the ring up to 120F for 10 seconds on the hour, every hour for that entire 24-hour period. The rings are waterproof and come in yellow and white gold. The website has some conflicting information about the ring's availability, so it is best to call for more information. Assuming, of course, that you remember.

This is so much more attractive that the traditional string tied around the finger. As long as you cn remember to put it on in the mornings, this may just work!

If only these creative juices could be directed to solving some of our social dilemmas...Anything to make a buck

If you need reminding,what's the point? You relationship sucks anyway. Don't lie to yourself.

What about leap years? The clock will be thrown off. And what about if the battery runs out for some unknown reason? Its a stupid idea. You're better off just putting the date into your cell phones calendar.

How many can you get of these? I have one of those hubbys that would forget his head if it wasn't attached! LOL! But knowing my luck.....he would forget it was a "remember ring" and think he was catching on fire! LOL! j/k

Umm, did you actually go to the site advertising the ring? The ring doesn't exist! (They admit the phony ad was posted to generate traffic to the web site.)

Just another dumb idea whether it's real or phony. But what would make millions of women buy these things if the ring were actually made to fit the most PRIVATE of parts on a man. I guarantee you that if a man's pecker starts warming up he'll get the message!!

They never said that the ad was phony, they just said that it was a concept ad and not for sale. But, because of the interest, they might try to actually engineer it. The whole thing is stupid though.

Anyone who is "partnered" to any degree and LOYAL to that partner would NOT need this item. It is ridiculous. Concept or not, it is a waste of money. with today's technology (Palm Pilots, AOL reminders, and other things designed to help you "remember), who needs an expensive ring? Ugh and double ugh!

Hey I think it is great that in todays world somebody somewhere can keep coming up with new ideas. That's is what America is all about people. Don't put down new ideas, someday one just might save your life.

Hey, let's ramp this up a bit. If one can't remember and it's important enough for either one to want to buy this item...........Then lets add a remote control feature. Bright LED lights, light up around the ring and flash when the wearer enters any kind of liqour establishment or near the proximity of a Tart. Holder of the remote control has the ability to deliver a shocking surge of electricity, just for kicks. HA HA

I know a much better concept that actually has sentimental meaning. It is called the Takohl Treasure Ring. Check out thier website www.treasurering.com. Amazing invention. Not cheesy!!

Why not use a take off on the old poison ring - on the right date it gives you a big prick!

i can't believe how negative most of the comments are. this is clever and will help some people remember and keep them out of the dog house and keep other people from feeling forgotten. it can be used for any date and reset throughout the year. it is a great bonding tool, nice looking, fun and probably not as expensive as a traditional ring. lighten up people and enjoy more of life's little treasures. most of you cynics probably don't give that much to good causes anyway...
