    Engagment ring

    The diamond does NOT need to be one carat or larger. I bought my fiancee a .51 carat princess cut , VS2 clarity, F color, excellent polish, VG symmetry. The Depth and Table proportions, while not terrible, could have been better, but the diamond still sparkles very nicely nonetheless. I set it...

    Waitress told me she wasnt happy with tip!

    My a$$ wouldn't been out of my job if I had ever attempted to confront a customer over a tip, period. Not ethical in any circumstance. You will have at least one crappy tip a night (if indeed it was crappy by her standards) the night will even out for her somehow. It is never acceptable to...

    Question about grooming

    Use Nair For Men. It goes on like a lotion, leave it for 2-3 minutes then wipe off with a clean wet towel then wash entire area. Women love men who are well groomed, they get more attention downtown that way. No woman wants to stare at her man's hairy bottom!!

    Has anyone ever filed a complaint about food/service with the fast food joint/ restaurants> customer relations<< ?

    SERIOUSLY .. they work in fast food, cmon now. My fiancee has pushed up the ladder and we've gotten our money back and gift certificates but that in no way guarantees good service. They have a large staff with a very high turn-over. I suggest avoiding it all..

    Fiance doesn't think I should be mad after she smashed my car

    And the fiancee finally speaks........... I went forward and back 6-8 times slowly working around my truck. Anytime I was ever unsure I could make it, I have ALWAYS had him back it out.. So needless to say, I didn't deserve all the yelling, but I did enjoy the make-up flowers I later got for...

    misdemeanor attempted possession of stolen property

    if the guy was interupting business, then they should have called the police. No one pays $30 just to shoo someone away from their place of work. A reasonable person would not believe that a guy on the street would sell a high end plasma TV for $100.
