Imagine it's Halloween evening and you've just gone to the door to greet another eager child with your big bag of trick-or-treat candy. You look down at the grinning costumed child with a smile and share some kind words as you throw a generous handful of tasty treats into his bag.After the happy child leaves, you plop back down on the comfy sofa and continue watching your favorite TV show until you decide to go into the kitchen for a snack.Just as you're reaching for the milk, you realize with horror that your wedding ring is gone! In a panicked state you search the whole house for the ring, but find no trace of it anywhere. After retracing your steps, you realize that the last time you saw your ring was right before you handed out the candy to that little boy with the adorable costume on.My gosh! You've just given your precious wedding ring to a 7-year old boy without a clue as to who he is or where he lives.Maybe this sounds far-fetched but a similar incident recently happened to a Massachusetts woman during Halloween. That little boy's candy bag contained something way more valuable than Hershey bars.Fortunately, her hometown police were able to track the child down and return her wedding ring without too much trouble.But what if you're not so lucky?Sometime wedding rings slip off and become lost down drainpipes, sewers, on public transportation, while walking in the park, while on vacation, etc.For someone who's lost their wedding ring, it's often a heart-wrenching experience. Because a wedding ring represents a lifetime commitment between you and your mate, it may feel like you've lost something irreplaceable.
After all, that's the ring that was slipped on your finger when you said "I do."While it's true that the emotional attachment that you feel for your original ring will always be with you in your heart, at some point, you'll probably feel the need to purchase another wedding ring to continue honoring your marriage and partnership.Buying a new wedding ring may even be cathartic. You and your partner could have a little celebration after you buy your new wedding ring just to reaffirm that the sweet romance you still feel for each other can never be lost..

I often wonder what would happen if Shakespeare were to be transported in a time machine to our world today.
What would he think?
How would he react?Yes, Willie would probably tell me "thou hast too much time on thy hands if thou spendeth it wondering about such flights of fancy."
But only after he found his feet.You see, Willie would be blown away by some of the comforts we take for granted.
For instance, that box we walk into.
The doors close all by themselves...just like magic.
When they open, we are magically in a different place."What callest thou this contraption?" Willie would ask in utter amazement.An elevator.
You would think nothing would phase a man who just landed his time machine 400 years into the future."Ah, I see.
It was not magic after all.
It elevated us, because it is an elevator."This Willie guy is pretty handy with his English, isn't he?
But that won't get him far these days...
Keep Your Kids Safe On Halloween Night
Halloween is a time when children of all ages can dress up and have a good time.
However, it is also a time when taking safety precautions is vital to prevent the fun on Halloween night turning into a tragedy.
Halloween safety involves a good deal of practical common sense but in the excitement of the night that common sense can often be forgotten. Planning ahead can help to make safety part of your family's Halloween routine.
Sadly, some people have been known to lace some treats with dangerous items such as razorblades, bleach or drugs. So, it is important for a parent to do their best to make sure their children don't become a victim of such behavior.
A good start is to establish a policy with your children that they are not allowed to accept any unwrapped food such as apples or cookies.
Also set the rule that they are not allowed to eat any of their candy until it has been brought back home and you have had a chance to check over every...
