Sad

So, I finally had to ask. It had been nagging at me. The guy had three weddings bands all on his official ring-finger.

I'm sorry I asked.

He's on his third marriage. His first two wives died. The first in a car accident when she was 23, and the second from breast cancer when she was 32.

So this poor guy's a widower twice over, and he's younger than me.

I hope this is the saddest thing I hear about today.

But, on the up side, that's really, really cool of his third wife to let him wear all three rings. Not all women would be okay with that.

I don't know if she lets him do any such thing. Maybe he just does it and fuck her if she doesn't like it. I'd probably be like that if I had a wife or two die on me.

I'll pretty much approve anything except SPAM comments, or comments that clearly have no purpose except to piss me off, or comments that are insulting to a previous commenter.

Use anything you want for your name and email address. I think it has to at least look like a valid email address though.
