    A certified diamond is not guaranteed to be conflict free. You're looking for a BONDED diamond.

    Not worth it, IMO. I don't buy conflict free gasoline, why would I bother with conflict free diamonds?

    ^ Joe will like it when you finally slip that ring on his finger.


    And to answer Pepe, lots of people ride in Africa. Popular trips for Europeans to grab a BMW whatever and kill it all over the country. Think Long Way Around, Riders for Health too.

    Dave's company just got a contract in Angola. They asked him if he'd go.



    THAT MEANS NO.

    They are 28 day tours....28 days on, 28 days off, travel days are on your off days. I don't know how long the contract is in terms of months/years.

    I agree that it's great to have that kind of job when you're young, but Dave is 43 and has been there/done that. He's seen the world through his work travel and he's tired of it now. He'd rather be at home. As it is right now, he's doing 3 weeks on, 3 weeks off....and that's pretty hard.
