As you may know, Jonathan lost his ring mysteriously last May. Authorities suspect that the ring disappeared while he was doing yard work, and that the ring now lies at the bottom of a compost pile somewhere — or worse. (Not that we know of much that can be worse than that.) So, after considerable consideration, Jonathan ordered a new ring that arrived last week.
The new ring is neither gold, nor silver, nor platinum, but tungsten carbide! It has the twin virtues of being both very hard and inexpensive. It scratches only under extreme conditions, and is the metal of choice for items such as drill bits and saw blades. Could there be manlier metal than this?
Jonathan is happy with his purchase. Jenelle is likewise glad to have something to keep the other women away from her man.
