I was young and DUMB mind you..................
I sold ALL my gear ($3000 worth) and went down to Atlantic City. I put it all on "red" on the roullette table. I won. But, i ultimately lost in the end. I spent the $6000 on a diamond ring for this bitch and broke up with her 6 months later!! The bitch never gave it back to me either. My Dad told me "Hey, you got off CHEAP!!". He was 100% correct because we would have KILLED each other if we got married. I later found the TRUE love of my life, my wife, a few years later. What pisses me off is that my wife DESERVES a ring like that, but she had to settle for something less expensive. She doesnt care, and THAT is why she is the BEST!!!!!
