Bad fortune. How many years is he married?

I do, however, sympathize with any husband who loves his wife and loses his wedding band…the perpetual symbol of their union and life together Sohbet

Was his wife there when he lost the ring? Makes me wonder why it came off…

Ha, I thought he lost his precious – and that would have been an epic story. This one was just ok.

You would think, what with being a gazillionatire Evil Sith Lord and all, that ‘ol Rupe could have scored hisself a more upscale trophywife than “Wendi-with-an-i”…

OK Jack,
Actually, it’s far less sinister than you think. I used the picture of the Ring merely to illustrate an important ring. I couldn’t find anything else in our pictures archive that would have conveyed the importance of the item. The picture of the One Ring has no other significance beyond that.
Apologies if i’ve offended.

I’m a big fan of Mr. Tolkien’s The Lord Of The Rings trilogy. It seems to me, Mr. & Mrs. Reader, that this article’s comparing The One Ring to Mr. Murdoch’s wedding ring is inappropriate. Firstly, a wedding ring is not evil.

Is Mr. Li being stereotypical about marriage (which I find to be the greatest relationship that there can be between a woman and a man)? Perhaps.

Secondly, linking Tolkien’s masterwork and Middle Earth to Mr. Murdoch’s business empire seems just a bit out of balance.

I don’t think this article is humorous.

I do, however, sympathize with any husband who loves his wife and loses his wedding band…the perpetual symbol of their union and life together.

OK Jack
