I didn't know you could rent women near us?...

Uncle Toys,theres only one rule in marriage when you're the man.Remember this always:
You can be right or you can be happy,choose one.

RonP - I believe they are Cut, Clarity, Color, and Carrot. The drivers of the fifth C, Cost.

Actually you gave me a good idea. I need input from the ladies on the board, not the other knuckle draggers (like myself) So Big Cig Chick, River Girl, Miss Amy, Sunseeker, etc - help out your OSO brother. What’s next? Maybe I can head her off at the pass, buy it first on my terms, or avoid the areas that it is sold at. When I agreed to drive out to El Paseo drive in Palm Desert last Saturday, I didn't know there are 11 high-end jewelry stores on that street. Can you spell ambush?

That's why I stick with the lease/option program with my girlfreind instead of marriage

High end means EXTREMELY high mark-up. If you can't escape get yourself a recent Rappaport report to see what you're getting yourself into... (sort of like an NADA blue book for diamonds)

ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS buy FIRST then tell her! Remember..."It is much easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission!"

Uncle Toys ~ Sorry,.....I'm not much into diamonds. I buy the fake ones for 15 dollars up at the mall! LOL! But, I'm sure that Lutz will tell you that my down fall is clothes. Okay, and shoes!

I cant even listen to this!!!

I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!
Before my last girlfriend, I thought a baguette (sp?) was a kind of roll.

I don't mine any jewellery! She had a tendency to lose things so I made it clear a long time ago that I won't buy any. She buys $15 fakes like Miss Amy!
