I really don't believe you can give proper advice in either of these situations without knowing the ages of the parties involved. So they've been together five years, maybe that's since they were 15? I also think it's a BIG mistake for any man to purchase a ring without knowing what the answer would be first. A ring...

Rick Halford is correct about the damage raiding the people's fund will cause.

Daniel, you should disclose your financial interest in HB 247. Are you still a leaseholder? HB 247 is very, very good legislation to end some of the massive welfare and fraud that SB-21 created.

It means that you don't take from some one who earned it some one who did not earn it. This is so sad that people think this is the solution to our problems.
