No, no - she hammers the diamond setting off the ring and gives it to
her best friend who really likes bling, and then attaches a cubic
zirconium to the ring with her ex-boyfriend's soldering iron that he
left in her attic. The zirconium has a solar-powered green glowing LED
embedded in it, and she's really happy because ever since that keychain
thingy died, she hasn't been able to see to unlock her car door at
night, and now she can. How useful!
