Moral: jewelry as tool, jewelry as weapon...Consider wearing a necklace like this, exemplified by RAQUEL WELCH. Inexact, misleading headline: "Woman Survives Being Buried Alive, Digs Herself With Engagement Ring". More accurate headline would be: "She used her ring to cut the tape from her legs, then tore apart the box[, which she said was buried in about 10 centimeters (4 inches) of soil.]" News Videos - Yahoo!

Don't grow up with a little princess mentality, life as a fairytale, waiting passively for Prince Charming, gorgeous wedding, happily ever after...

Your presumed Beau might turn out to be a BOO!, who one day might give you a last phone call from his Black-bury [you alive]...then again, jewelry as a tool!

Better yet, grow up with realistic expectations and DIG yourself out of any trouble, if possible...

Navajo Jewelry - (virtual) maximum card. Raquel Welch, too.

The subject of this (virtual) maximum card is...Raquel Welch? Nah!...pas du tout. It's the art of Navajo jewelry - category: necklace.
Right? Yeah. Right. :)

Normally, I would put, maybe, additional postmarked stamp(s) on the back side, to make up the domestic postcard rate, currently 28 cents. So 26c more in stamp(s). But this is virtual, so...

FIP regulation: "- In general, abstract or symbolic subjects do not suit Maximaphily and are excluded from its field."

Too bad, FIP! That's exactly what you should accept and aim for! Otherwise, anybody can simply stick to, for example, a bull postcard, a bull stamp (better be same breed) and a bull pictorial postmark. Or "a postmark from a post office nearby" a bull. Yes, it could be a nice MC (maximum card), but if it's all bull, then maybe it's too much bull. Viva variety!

But abstract or symbolic subjects could offer great opportunities for intellectual stimulation...

In this case, WE WILL NEVER FIND a regular, commercial postcard that matches EXACTLY the necklace from the stamp, I think.
So, instead, I found a SIMILAR necklace, hanging out with Raquel. (Not me; the necklace). :(

Is Raquel's necklace a Navajo artifact? How the hell should I know? It looks Navajo enough to me...:)

Now she's 69 :) (it's all in YOUR mind) years young, but in the Romanian postcard she was VERY YOUNG, when she didn't even know how to pluck her eyebrows, apparently. Eh, what do I know?
See tips from the Romanian-born Anastasia Soare, the Hollywood Brow Expert:

In the above bloglink, please read Building, not Buliding or Bulding :) .

"Anastasia Soare was featured on For Business News on Wednesday, September 23, 2009. The segment entitled, Bulding a Business Brow by Brow focused on Anastasia’s Brow Empire, and how she became known as the Brow Guru. Check out the video here, or click on this link: Fox Business News: Buliding a Business Brow by Brow."

Best wishes to, in no particular order, Raquel Welch, Anastasia Soare and the Navajo jewelers!
