Where would the best place to go to find gems like sapphires- rubies- etc? I don t want a bag-o-dirt place. I want a stream in the middle of nowhere that I don t have to pay to get a bag of dirt that may or may not have come from "mine" Thanks

Hey i was wondering (actually- really wanted to know) if the butter they use at restraunts like Chilis and Ruby Tuesdays contains hydrogenated oils- because to me it tastes like margarine (and I m used to smart balance/regular butter). Anyway thank you for any info

I was supposed to write a love themed poem for school- but I figured it was good enough to try posting here. Your thoughts?

Beneath Falling Blossoms

Your love paints my skies- beautiful-
Beyond the limits of inked words.
A passion indescribable-
But by the voice of yours I ve heard.

A symphony of tiny bells-
Rings from your lips- a miracle.
At the gentle sound- my heart swells-
Beating to your words- lyrical.

Your face- too- is pure and perfect-
With ruby lips and sapphire eyes.
My illusions of you not wrecked-
I remain transfixed- hypnotized.

Still searching for a love like this-
Where all faults and flaws are smoothened.
I will wait for that first kiss-
Star-struck beneath falling blossoms.

What do you think? :)

well recently ive been planning on getting a tattoo of the joker from batman with piano keys as teeth- and i was going to make it a sleve with black roses- thorns piercing the skin- hidden little ghost like skulls on the roses- cards- and maybe smoke coming from the thorn piercing- and a ruby coming from the roses interwining thorns- but i was wondering do you think all of this would flow good with this tattoo on my inner forearm?

this idea is 100% custom from my head- and ive been thinking/adding to this thing for a while. im almost ready to get it just not sure what im going to do with my inner arm =/. but i thank you all for the input.
the only colors i could imagine besides the grey/black would be the jokers green hair- the ruby.
i will try and put as much color as possible- but i am mixxed race and have darker skin toned- i guess a caramel complexion haha- thats why i cant get so many colors- the darker colors green- red- dark blues can work- but i mostly stick with black and grey for the most part

How many times before did Kenny hear the door slam???
