  1. Not a bad idea at all. I actually purchased it from a local jeweler in Batavia, been around for decades. I think I'll call and beg for 40% of my investment back.... oh, what a return!
  2. 3 years. Well, I'm guessing based on how diamonds are formed, muuuch older than that, but that's when it was purchased.
  3. Again, don't want to discuss the details, but I'll bite: I'd rather give myself a root canal with a rusty spoon dipped in vinegar than have her keep it. Now, please no more moral, karma, etc posts. Just advice. Newspaper?
  4. Ok so first, don't cry for me Argentina, but the wife and I are splitting up. I'm not looking for any sympathy (except from maybe DC Tom), nor am I looking to discuss the details, and finally, no I don't have a "pic" or "link" of her. That said, I need some advice on selling a diamond ring. (yes, I got it back). I know pawn shops are my last resort; but I'd rather go that route than eBay I think. And I'm fairly sure (from the googling I did that jewelry stores will laugh me out of the place). The details on the ring are as follows: Its GIA certified with GIA # 15897596 It is a "squared modified brilliant" cut (otherwise known as princess cut) Measurements of the center diamond are 5.49x5.32x3.74 Carat Weight of center diamond is .91 carat Color is G Clairty is SI2 Finish: Polish: Good Symmetry: Good Fluorescence: None The ring itself is white gold and the diamond setting is platinum It has 4 "diamond melee" on the sides (baguettes I think they're called) totally .40 additional carats (.075, .075, .125 and .125) It was bought and appraised for $5,480. Now, I know that, in this economy, with the ridiculous mark up of jewelry in the first place, I may be lucky to get $2,000 for it (and that's probably a stretch) I just want to know if anyone knows, based on experience or knowledge of diamonds or jewelry, what my best option is in this case.
  5. Awesome. Just with they had a pic of his face when the taser hit.
  6. University of Michigan solving all things that everyone already knew: http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/05/03/obesi...dex.html?hpt=C2 One question: How did they cast for the "8-10 year old, fat kid, holding empty candy wrappers" photo shoot? Related news: Midgets more likely to get stared at than normal height people Tall people are asked "what's the weather like up there?" more often than short people Girls with nice cleavage get better service than flat chested women
  7. When will the act of someone "coming out of the closet" stop being a news story? Yawn. And the answer is yes.
  8. We get it dip ****. You're against the AZ immigration law. But in a situation as serious as this, do you have to try to be "cute" with your subject title?
  9. Not as good, but just as bizarre, "Confessions of a Superhero".
  10. Pretty interesting show about his career. He was indeed a bit bat-**** crazy.
  11. I'm referring to when you just type "why" into google (no quotes) but do not search. Just see what Google Suggests (google always lists suggestions as you type). But by typing in just why, the first question google recommends is "Why can't i own a Canadian?"
  12. Go to Google. Type in just the word why. First suggestion from Google is something I've wondered about for far too long.
  13. Anyone care to argue for a different one? http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/index.php?showuser=6545
  14. I heard that Johnson ShaftnBalls from Michigan is pretty decent.

  17. From the Broncos Message Board: "dont be suprised! mcd might just trade up and get little mac from punch out! he has some heart too!"
  18. Denver just gave up the rest of their draft for the most part for Tebow. Can anyone imagine what would happen to TBD if the Bills did that? Anyone wanna check the Broncos Message Board?
  19. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0923752/ This movie surprised the hell outta me with how good it was. Read the summary from IMDB and if you have Netflix, start watching it.
