You can't lock this one, because it's number XXI. And XXI is forever. Like diamonds. Or something (ed. note: TankStrappe is probably buying a diamond today).

Are we talking about the Panthers new prospect David Mayo who will be wearing #55 for the Panthers? Aka Cinco Cinco De Mayo!

Does that mean what I think it means?

Yup. Going down to Crabtree and getting me a nice industrial quality diamond blade bandsaw after work today.

Or I might get there and decide to blow the money on an engagement ring instead. Could go either way, really.

u should find a place that repurposes diamond drill bits into engagement rings, will be a lot cheaper.

Though, I still maintain that the best thing you could do to illustrate your love and eternal commitment would be to buy her a ring set with a chuck of carbon.

Don't tempt me. Diamonds are the advertising industry's greatest victory of all time. Even though the cartel has legitimate competition now, the stones are so ingrained into the psyche of western culture that their retail value will never go down (although resale value is another story). I don't think anybody truly believes they're rare any more, but they're still priced as if they are.

I think it's pure, unadulterated BS, but there are certain things to dig in your heels on and certain things to just play along with. This is one of the latter.

I mean, you can come with. I have every intention of testing the saw on items in the store before I buy it.

every time i see a diamond, it reminds me of that family guy skit, which i won't post because it's probably nsfw.

Amen!. Just hope that she doesn't have a longer term desire for more diamonds. Thankfully, my wife feels they are pretty much a waste of money so after the engagement ring, I haven't had to spend gobs on diamond necklaces, diamond earrings, etc...etc... I feel for the guys that have (or choose) to do that.

Speaking of marriage, being in two out of city weddings in 3 weeks is ****ing expensive.

One can hope.

She doesn't exactly have expensive tastes, so I don't think she will. She does have one pair of diamond earrings (that I know about, anyway) that she wears a lot, but she inherited them from her mom, so that's different. She also gave me specific instructions to stay under 1 carat. I think she's pretty practical-minded, but still wants to be like most women and wear a diamond rather than some alternative stone.

I know what you mean. I have to go to two of them this year with my wife and both require plane tickets, hotel, wedding gifts, rental car, etc..
