The Horror, the horror

The movie Blood Diamond has disturbed me greatly. I wonder if women knew how many gallons of blood were traded for the shining medallions on their chests, or the litter flickers of light radiating from their fragile fingers...

What a beautiful movie... another one that gives hope to us bad fellas... that maybe we will have some redeeming moments in our lives.. where we can die happy men.

What drives me nuts is the fact is diamonds are as common as broken glass. The DeBeers (spelling?) family control the release of the diamonds, so it's a false market. They have giant warehouse sized safes full of the things and they buy up and shut down almost every new diamond field discovered.

Watching that film made me glad I don't have any.

I think women would like the diamonds even more if they knew.
