To answer your question - usually both the men and women just switch to the wedding ring. This one is usually a little more gaudy (for the woman) than the engagement ring which is just a plain gold ring.


Same here.


We here usually (99.99%) wear same plain wedding golden rings (i.e. those are just same rings for both husband and wife but different sizes due to finger sizes). The rings for both husband and wife are worn on left hand. BTW, IIRF, this is similar as in Austria and southern Germany.





As for engagement ring they are only bought for future wives and they are worn on right hand. Also those rings are not "plain" as wedding rings - they can be quite elaborate. Please note that engagement ring can be worn after wedding as well...

Does that make the Fleahawks over .500 on the season now or do they still need to win 2 more to get there?


not yet....it just makes the "Fleahawks" the team that sent home last year's Superbowl champions in a high scoring game.

Status: offline 		Yep. Pretty hilarious. Even my GF, who HATES sports that don't involve equine athletes, became interested when the highlights played. As the rasberry throwers continue to repeat.....by dint of the NFL rules, any and all "Division" winners automatically go to the the playoffs. Seattle is the first team in history to go to the playoffs with a losing record (only other time i think was during a shortened player strike season way back), and now i guess it can be added they are the only team to both win a playoff game anyway and upset a super-bowl contender (one article placed New Orleans as the #2 best team in the playoffs)

Noone thought they had a chance except maybe one local radio personality. I think alot of people lost money yesterday. Bonus on top of that.....game occured on a saturday so i should be assured a traffic jam free trip to my favorite pub with the "gang" in tow.

and yes...the gang currently still includes our "guest" who stayed for dinner. He's a real hit at the pub.

Saw that game yesterday. Good game & awesome running game that gave the Seahawks that last TD. Congrats, Nik!

Going to try and go over the Millau bridge too, that looks cool. Thinking if we do Pompey-Caen ferry we can drive down to Le Mans and then go via Tours. 10 hour drive, do it in 1 day down and maybe 3 or 4 back stopping off in the Loire valley.

Capt. Pickard, with that almost genetic French insouciance and je ne sais quoi; “Just imagine, Will, a life at sea in the old days; no engines, no computers, just the stars to guide you.”

Cmdr Riker, with that almost genetic British aplomb and gift for understatement; “Yes, Sir; nauseating food, brutal discipline, no women.”

... and with that, I'm off to bed. Good night friends

You guys are so lucky living so close. I am very envious. My favorite places in France are in Poitou/Charente, Aquitaine - Gironde, Dordogne, Charente, Charente Maritime.

I hear Languedoc is exquisite this time of year; you have Carcassonne, and Montauban right next door, so to speak, and Tarbes is what? 100 km away. Wouldn't mind trading places with you for a holiday.

I think their placekicker, David Akers, is in the doghouse. Their punter did OK, IMO. Still, they're the Eagles, so good riddance, however they lose.

That was one of the most spirited runs I've ever seen. Just fantastic.
