I know you guys can always come up with the answer, so.....

It's going to be my pearl wedding anniversary next week.

My dilemma is, what to get for my husband that is made from pearl...

I have racked my brain, but I can't think of one single thing that a man would want which is made from pearl!

Can someone out there in NS general-land solve my problem for me?

wow, that is awesome. I never knew.

What about some... uhm... ear rings? Suggest him to try drag?

No, I guess that might not be a good idea. Just get him a gardening tool, that always works... :rolleyes:

Just buy him the biggest pearl you can afford and wrap it in a voucher for one blow job. He'll love it.

But seriously, some (really) nice oysters, with a (really, really nice) bottle of champagne... Would that not do the trick?

And you could share the fun... That counts for something too.... :D

I would like him to live to celebrate next year!

Besides....I'm letting him take me away in a trailer for two weeks...if he has a heart attack what would I do with him?

A pearl handled one shot flintlock pistol. In a Mohogany colored wooden box, lined with red velvet. He'd feel like a distinguished cowboy!

Do you have one for sale then?

Er....no. But if you look in the right magazines you should be able to find some. Then again, you might have to settle for a revovler as opposed to flintlock. Maybe your local gun dealer could point you somewhere, assuming there is one in your area.
