Lew2nl: Now here’s a deal for you …Ad from today’s ‘local’ paper” — “Custom made diamond wedding set, yellow gold, size 6 1/4, .30 CARROTS, never worn …”

Question: Anyone want to make up a story to go with that advertisement?

    hmm, 6 1/4? That is small for a gal right?

    or

    Young starlet, dreams, obsession, a chance meeting = unused wedding ring and a restraining order.

    I wear a 6 1/2 - that’s my ring finger. My pinky finger can hold that .30 carrot ring though.

    Unfortunately, the wedding was called off when Mr. McGregor’s wife made stew out of poor Peter Rabbit.

    This Diamond Ring doesn’t shine for me anymore and
    This Diamond Ring doesn’t mean what it did before
    So if you’ve got someone whose love is true
    Let it shine for you…………

    Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
    Shine on you crazy diamond.
    Now there’s a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
