Extra-Terrestrial Bling

Today an interstellar visitor splashed down in Kalamalka Lake. Thankfully no dinosaurs were harmed during this event of celestial significance, but lots of boats need to be dredged up from the bottom.

While it looked like an ordinary chunk of space rock, when it hit the bottom, it cracked like an egg – revealing an unexpected surprise: the core of the meteor is pure diamond. It’s big and sparkly and Jeff Bezos has already approached us about purchasing it and mounting on his mother’s old wedding ring. Despite buying out a quarter of Venice, he still has that kind of cash left over.

This is a list of things a diamond that size will buy:

  • Another big diamond
  • Two very rare Lego sets
  • A bigger spaceship than Richard Branson’s
  • Respect
