a suspect in the JonBenet Ramsey murder was arrested in Thailand this morning.
Okay, wait, they're blaming some random person in Thailand now?? Hello to the magic bullet theory!
(kidding, kidding)
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

I know that amber from the Baltic region is actually collected on beaches -- it washes up on a regular-enough basis that it's an industry. (Amber is very light, for a precious stone!)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Engagement rings are given on occasion of an engagement. Wedding rings are given on occasion of a wedding. There are other differences, but that's the biggie
Well, I figured that much. I just don't know what the actual difference between the rings are.

I suppose it's vaguely possible that somebody with a child-sex fixation might be going to Thailand, since it's infamous for that.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I didn't think the brother was old enough to go to Thailand.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I always thought that the important difference. Tradition puts a stone on the former and not the latter, which the man may also have.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I just don't know what the actual difference between the rings are.
Wedding ring: both men and women wear them (usually); they are simple metal bands.
Engagement ring: usually worn only by women; they are metal bands with one or more precious stones set in them.
Married women tend to pick wedding rings that match the engagement ring (same kind of metal, e.g.), and wear them one right next to the other on the same finger (left ring).
To my surprise, I discovered that much of central Europe wears wedding rings on the right hand. I had Austrian grad school classmates who lessoned me in the variations of tradition.

Cello players, even in the US, wear their wedding rings on their right hands. (At least, all the ones I've known.)

Oh my god. I've spent most of the afternoon going over ppt docs, trying to figure out this monster complex project. I'm so confused. blahblahblah explanations on why this is the whackassed planning design process I've ever seen.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Give me his/her number and I will scream it into the phone.
You have no idea how much I would love this.
