MrNyceGuy Rough Rock Total Posts: 74 Last Post: 12/28/2007 Member Since: 10/16/2007	Well, I've been lurkin for the past month or so.... but with good reason: With everyone's advice and help I was able to work closely with the fine people at WF over the past 3 months to get this little peice in my hands in time for the holidays. I didn't want to post anything on PS too soon, but the proposal is drawing near and I thought I'd share my joy with you all just before I proposed. So without further ado, here's my fiance-to-be's 2.6ct H SI2 (Completely Eye Clean!!!!!) platinum solitaire. Many thanks to all and to Mara and Teagreen for the inspiration for the custom setting Hand shots to follow, assuming the wonderful lady says yes!

Anyway, here are some hand shots from our day at the beach and the proposal. More to follow, but for now I wanted to share our joy!

When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn

Ellen Ideal Rock Total Posts: 22,894 Last Post: 11/6/2009 Member Since: 1/13/2006	I absolutely adore this ring. A nice wide band and a simple, beautiful head holding a killer diamond. swoon Well done! And it looks great on her hand, which means, congratulations are in order! p.s. Cute couple. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."
