The Appraisal

An acquaintance of mine whose daughter was about to be married decided to give her a diamond ring that had been in the family for several generations.

The stone had never been appraised, so the father asked a gemologist friend

if she would take a look at it.

She agreed, but said that instead of a fee she'd accept lunch at one of Houston's finer restaurants.

A few days later, as he and the gem expert sat sipping a glass of Chablis, he showed her the ring.

She took out her jeweler's magnifier, examined the diamond carefully and handed it back.

"Wow," said a tourist who had been watching from the next table.

"These Texas women are tough!"

Thanks Larry!

OK you may or may not have heard by now, but this was actually part of the Casey Anthony trial, if you can believe it. There were arguments regarding whether trash was called "trash" or "garbage", and whether garbage was called "garbage" or "trash", or both... refuge, waste, chloroformed baby with duct tape around her face in a black trash bag ..

Good! OK Balance.. Wait, Watch Out For That...

Famous Getty Image Of The Vancouver Riots The Other Night

Via - (NSFFW)

So yeah this couple decided there was no better place nor time to make the best of their moment. The priceless picture is completely innocent, yet it's 100% perfection from a photographer's point of view. Riots are happening here. Cars are burning, hundreds of people are creating a situation in which riot police have to be dispatched. And yet these two people in love will be forever known as "the couple who were making out in downtown Vancouver amidst riots" - all because their hometown NHL team lost a Stanley Cup Final game-7. Badly.

For them? Ehh who won?

The story behind the picture..

Updated story here.. It turns out there's more to it than just a young couple kissing in the road!

Notice how they arranged all these hot women by hair color? I must admit I heard about this on a news report which contained Whoopie Goldberg stating this observation. Nevertheless, way to go Tony! Not only does your new wife have a lot of hot friends, but their hair colors cover the entire female hair color spectrum!
