Just last week I bought a box of paperclips (this since our never ending source of stationery supplies, Fred Roed moved out of our office) and marvelled how paperclip hasn’t really changed since its inception in 1877. It’s about time someone continued the evolution.
We’ll, if Fred didn’t want to continue supplying me with stuff, I’m gonna find another Fred. Introducing Talk Bubble Clips made by a company called Fred.
Now that the paperclip is evolving, we can rest easy…go back to our boring offices…assured that filing day will never be the same again.
Speak up! Be heard! These cartoon-inspired paper clips are the perfect way to draw attention to what you’re really trying to say. Talk Bubble clips are extra large, extra thick, and plated in sexy gunmetal black.

This is too much. You know, as I was driving around today I had this feeling that someone was writing about me.
Awesome stuff. Love the pic of Fred on the ‘Whos Fred’ page. Handsome fella.
