Cotton eyed Joe Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Diamonds are worthless. They only have value because of women. If women thought that hanging lizards from their ears was attractive, Geckos would be worth $1000/oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stylemaster Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 no shit, unrefined diamonds are cheap as f*ck. refining them is expensive and thats why they cost so much. thats a big old pile of unrefined diamonds. useless to someone without money to open up an operation to refine and cut them.

I saw a show on the Disc. Channel about a guy that owns a jade mine in the south/east US...I want to say near Virgina. Raw jade is "worth" tons more compared to raw diamonds. Jade is still a worthless rock, but there are plenty of worthless rocks that command a higher price than diamonds. I tell my wife "rather than me buy you diamonds, how bout you buy you diamonds, and I'll go buy something for my banshee" so far neither of us have gotten anything.

BansheeBrian Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 There is a limit of how many diamonds (refined) released to the public each year so they hold their value.This is to avoid the market from flooding. A pair of decent shoes is one of the great "I'm sorry" gifts man has to offer.The greater gift is to go with her to pick them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She threw away one pair of shoes. She still has around 15 pair. I have shoes for: Work Not at work Gym sandals for at the dunes I don't even have riding boots. She has shoes that she wore in the 9th grade like 12 yeras ago. She was wearing a pair of shoes the other day that I liked. I mentioned that I liked them, but I don't remember her having them. She said that it was the first time she has worn them, but they were over a year old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee169 Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 I feel your pain on the shoe situtation. No joke my wife has at least 30pairs in the closet. On top of that she has 2 more boxes in another closet, 1 for winter, 1 for summer! Its crazy! To top it all off she is addicted to buying boots, the tall kind that go up to mid-calf. They look great on her but I can't get her to stop buying them, we are talking at least 15 pairs of boots on top of all the others. No wonder I have to scrape to buy mods for my shee!!!!!!
