There is something odd about that story...besides the pink pistol.   
The bejeweled guido princess opens the door to a stranger at 3 am, while boyfriend stays asleep...even though he thinks the pizza delivery guy is plotting to steal their bling. Forgetaboutit-  I'm betting there is more to the story.

If nothing else I was shaking my head at the guy talking about the $16K ring and the "can you cash a $100?" stuff. A home invader deserves what they get, but the guy talking about how rich the couple is was kinda weird, and is pretty condition white, if not just plain stupid.

The thought of the breaker-inner being done in by a pink revolver is still kind of amusing though.

Edit: Yeah, yeah, it's $60K. Stop picking on my old brain! :P  :laugh:

Yup!  A lot more.  Nothing like conspicuous consumption to draw in bad people.  Perhaps a better plan would be to tone down the bling and stop advertising wealth.

Eh. In Tierra Verde that's kinda Po' White Trash.  The entire town is predicated on conspicuous consumption. 

Lesson to be learned here, don't break into other folk's houses.

in a lot of ways, it seems like the Amish* simply know how to live better, and happier lives. odd how not flashing cash/toys around town makes life easier. [tinfoil]


* is that phrase considered raciest? i'll change it if so. but it's not like they'll be reading it anyway. :angel:

According to him it's a $60K ring.  

It's been a long time since I lived down there, but there always seems to be a "rest of the story" behind much of the stuff that goes on there.  I briefly dated a gal down there, who also shot a guy who was supposedly trying to kill her at 3 am...it was a her husband.  Unfortunately for her, the jury (and evidence) didn't support her defense claim, and she went to prison for a couple of years. I met her after she shot him, but before the trial, and I didn't know anything about it when we were going out....I just thought she was super hot...and loved her Porsche Carrera Turbo (it was actually her dead husbands).  Turned out she was somewhat of a drunk, a liar, and was probably guilty.  Long story short- my opinion is jaded.

So is it bad that I heard that sung by Steven Tyler in my head?
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

The version I read said the ring cost $60,000. And the guy is an arborist, fer Gawd's sake. That's an tree cutter. If tree cutters can afford $60,000 (or even $16,000) engagement rings, I chose the wrong career.

Probably more like he owns a company who does tree cutting or something.  He may be mortgaged for the next couple centuries also.

Kind of reminds me of the commercial where the rabbit is laughing at the rattelsnake with the baby rattle tied to its tail. Except the rattlesnake bites the rabbit anyways.  :laugh:

When I bought my Taurus TCP, they had a pink-frame model in the showcase.  If they ever make one in fluorescent neon-green, so it matches my motorcycle and bicycle safety gear, I am so buying one to carry on the bikes.

My mistake on the ring. My failing memory remembered $16K instead of $60K when I posted. :)

So money can't buy class, but it can at least buy colorful pistols to protect that money.
