A perfect 10 (wedding ring finger, that is)


Wait, what? I don't get it either...?

My left ring finger is a 8.5. I actually think I have pretty awesome hands for a guy (save for my right thumb, which was half lost due to a table-saw accident). I never thought that thick fingers had anything to do with a man's testosterone levels...?

It has been thought (mistakenly) that a man's hand or finger size relates to another appendage's size! wink

Gee, I wonder who came up with that. A MAN, no doubt, lol. So he looks and says, I have small feet. Drats. I have small hands. Drats. I'll check my earlobes, my nose and everything else I can think of. Hey, look how thick my fingers are!! YIPPEE, something I can brag about!!


No offense to the men, we love them but they are sometimes idiots. grin

Oops, was that mean?

I certainly hope you don't take it personally, lots of places won't work on CZ or sims. I'm sure you will find somewhere else that will be happy to take your business. I'd call first so you don't waste the time and gas only to be turned away.


hahahahaha That's a good one! hahahahhaa Plus, since when is 8 large? Isn't stock size a 7 ?

One time my daughter took me out for Mother's Day shopping - to pick out a gift. She wanted me to pick up the little pave diamond heart necklace I had been looking at for some time in a jewelry store window. This wasn't terribly expensive. I want to say it was less than 200...but not too much for her (though she should NOT spend that on Mom's day!) Still, that was her plan - and when we got there and asked for it to be taken out of the case - the sales girl says. "this is very expensive, I'm not sure that you can afford it" TO MY DAUGHTER! I looked like a deer in headlights...we left and bought a different necklace with more diamond weight elsewhere for LESS. I think it was because at the time she put blue in her hair...and she has lotsa piercings and tats...(she is an artist - and she works in photography and has freedom to express herself). I think that sales girl pre-judged my baby girl and it made me really angry! ***p.s. she and I laugh about it now and say that line from the Pretty Woman movie "Do you work on commission?....big mistake...big mistake"

Hahahaha, yes. I've often marveled at how my earlobe size correlates to my "manhood." Ain't nuthin' gets mah woman goin' more than a good-ole' masculine, testosterone boasting earlobe! XD

And sometimes idiots, yes. But our sometimes idiocy helps to level the playing field with your sometimes emotional-lunacy. =P

I can attest to that being incorrect. Hubby has very large hands...
