My neighbor's marrying a box turtle. What gift should I buy?
I mean, should I get something useful, like a kitchen appliance, or should I go the more artsy route and get them a little glass insect paperweight? I'm really torn.

And my friend's thinking of popping the question to his chinchilla. Does he really need to spend three months' income on a ring for a rodent, or can he do something a little cheaper?

1. Shell glue
Believe me. One night of passion can turn into a nightmare in an instant.

5. Now, really-I would think this is a no-brainer.
Turtle Wax, of course.

Re: The ring for the chinchilla. You can go cheaper. Chinchillas are really not all that materialistic. They are mostly just looking for true love.
