Now That’s a Rock!

  1. I’m not too concerned about the size of that diamond–I figure a few hundred years at my wages and I’d have it paid off.

    I am a bit worried about a lady with a finger that big, though!

  2. The optician part comes in where the special lens to take a close look notes: object in lens is much, much smaller than it appears….

  3. “Pioneer Jewelers” established in 1862. I thought everyone was too busy building temples and killing crickets back then to be worried about buying diamonds. Can’t even imagine the expense for the polygamist families.
