Re: Somebody's Gotta Buy This Stone!
Looking at Richard Wise's sale prices, I hesitate to ponder what the regular prices were!!!

Re: spock vs spock audi commercial
As a long time Star Trek fan, I have to say that this is just the best commercial ever!!! I still love the original series so I am quite partial to Leonard Nimoy but Zachary Quinto is great as the "new Spock".

Re: The lost art of handwriting...
If you can't use cursive, how do you sign your name on a legal document? Print your name? That would be odd I think. Why do all the niceties of life have to go away? When I write thank you notes I always use cursive. But I guess people don't write those either... There is no rule saying that you mu... |

Re: a YELLOW thread
Wow, where to start?!! Amazing stones! Charmed, that ring is super. You obviously have a well trained eye to have found that because you know rings like that are not just lying around! :lol: It looks like its very well cut too - and that's what I love about them - they really show off when well cut... |

Re: a YELLOW thread
Such gorgeous stones! Cind11, I know your sapphire well, and have admired it many a time on the Finewater site. I hope you'll post lots of pictures when you set it! I'll throw my latest chryso in here too, since we're okay with modifiers. :) Thaaks! I take terrible photos but I will try. Your chrys... |

Re: a YELLOW thread
I love seeing everyone's yellow stones.. I have a 5.98 ct. yellow sapphire from Gary Braun that I bought about two years ago and am finally getting around to setting. It is off in California right now going into an "Alishan" setting. I only have Gary's pictures. Mine are always bad so I d... |

Re: Thinking About Mounting My Ruby
I think I have the sister ruby to yours from Gene. My ring is in this thread http://www.pricescope.com/forum/show-me-the-ring/show-us-your-bezel-rings-t121897-390.html......... I think the setting you are interested in would suit it well. Edited: that is not taking me to the correct thread. Sorry. |

Re: Switzerland
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1yy-DSH5b8 The scenery in that video is lovely. I had to laugh though at the guy they showed on the train who looked like he was sleeping through it all. That waterfall was quite something! You know, if you do that route 100,000 times, it probably becomes as boring a... |

Re: Switzerland
We went to Switz in October. If I were you, I'd stick to the countrysides/villages. We did the Italian and the German parts of Switzerland. Pontresina/St. Moritz (side trip to Tirano), and Lauterbrunnen and Lucerne. Our favorite parts was in the Alps. If you have time, do some hiking and you'll be ... |

Re: Switzerland
Definitely skip the big cities - bleh, grey, boring! Love the italian-swiss south ! So pretty! Check out Lugano! Me, too! I've been to Switzerland and Northern Italy many times. Even though my family was originally from the northern (German) part of Switzerland, my favorite part of the country is t... |

Re: Switzerland
I have been there, but did not get to spend any time there. I passed through in about one day. Luckily I didn't simply change planes there, so I got the chance to see a small slice out of life in Zurich (Italian friends of my husband had been on a bicycle trip through the Dolomites and showed up th... |

Re: Switzerland
DH and I went to Switzerland last June. It was incredible! We stayed in Wengen and used Chalet Service to find a little apartment to stay in. It was super easy to use, so I would recommend that if you choose to stay in Wengen. We shopped at the local Coop for groceries so we could save some money, ... |

Re: Switzerland
Hi, I lived there for 2 years....came back just in time for my daughter to start US kindergarten last year. I't's a small, incredibly beautiful and orderly country. And the trains are fantastic. Go everywhere! Culturally there are 3 main areas more/less: Swiss-German, Swiss-French, and Swiss-Italia... |

Re: Switzerland
YES! We loved Switzerland! I should just ditto JustGinger's post because our experience was so similar. The Berner Oberland region was our favorite. But don't stay in Interlaken, go UP and stay in Murren or Wengen or such. We loved it so much, in fact, that we just named our first born son Brienz (... |

Re: Switzerland
We went last March for a ski trip and stayed in Wengen (nearby village to Muerren, where Justginer was) and Zermatt. We would go back and do the same trip in warm weather to go hiking, enjoy the scenery, etc. We felt Switzerland had such a good vibe with friendly people and it was easy to navigate ... |

Re: Switzerland
Ok, at home and on my laptop so I have the facilities (and wit!) to formulate a proper answer. Switzerland is a magnificent destination. Truly. It is safe, clean, easy to navigate (the Swiss are extraordinarily well-organized and prompt), and BEAUTIFUL. June is an excellent time to go, as the weath... |

Switzerland
Anyone been there? My sister and I would like to go in June. We almost went last summer (chose Alaska instead) and would have gone on the Golden Pass train which goes from west to east or maybe vice versa. (can't remember) But we have decided we would rather concentrate on probably two cities and sp... |

Re: Do you get your cat's teeth cleaned?
Yes I do get my cats' teeth cleaned. Not every year, but I take them for checkups every year. If the vet says their teeth need to be cleaner we do it. |
