sold my old wedding ring for enough for dinner and a movie

Jewelry. Feh. Attaching precious metals and whatnot to your body in different ways. I'm against it.

The Germans have it right. Their word for jewelry is Schmuck.

Griff · 07-18-2011, 03:16 PM

I thought they called it maize... or farfegnugen. One of those.

I guess I don't understand the gold market. I read it's up to $1600/oz. Figure a ring weighs about an ounce and is more than half gold if it's 14k. Wouldn't the ring be worth a lot more?

I misplaced my ring, or it is not where I left it.

monster · 07-18-2011, 06:21 PM

I keep hearing a commercial for Chicken Rings. Somehow that does not sound appetizing. I wonder if Chocolate Starfish are on the dessert menu?

Maybe mr. toad meant he was making a movie?

Undertoad · 07-18-2011, 06:30 PM

I'm sorry, dinner and a movie FOR TWO

monster · 07-18-2011, 06:42 PM

My wedding ring cost 11 quid. yes, it's gold.

9 year old is on his fifth week of summer swim season (and it's not his first season). Every day except Sunday, he's in the pool at 8am, so he puts his Speedo on when he gets dressed. Not once has he remembered to take it upstairs with him as he goes to get dressed, despite walking right past the drying rack. Not once.

Some Doofus left the drain on the 50 meter city pool open overnight. Today is the hottest day of the year. Someone might be in big trouble. It's not really funny, except it is... and we have another pool to cool off in. But there was no high school swim practice today. And if those lane lines are permanently stretched, that's going to be a pricey incident, never mind the water and chemical bill....

monster · 07-21-2011, 07:40 AM

a quick snap.....

glatt · 07-21-2011, 08:04 AM

oops.

I guess you can't just cut off the extra lane line huh? They are sort of like rulers and the colors mean stuff?

monster · 07-21-2011, 08:14 AM

right. you can shorten them but they need an element of flex and I'm guessing that might be all gone. Sort of like boobies bounce but eventually there comes a point when they're staying knee-bound. These look like granny boob lane lines to me. Of course maybe I just need more/less caffeine, Im used to dashing around in the mornings, but both pools are now closed today so I'm all discombobulated because i still got up early enough to do that
