Feeling covetous.

I want this necklace so badly it is distracting me from my life. I want it so badly I don't know what to do with myself.



I want it to a degree that I figured I would post a pic of it here so that it would be in everyone's head and if anyone happened to come across something like it in their travels, either through the interwebs or RL, they would TELL ME so I could snap it up with my greedy little hands.

Another book recommedation request.

This time I am looking for books about WWI. I'm fascinated by the realities of that war and would LOVE to read some good accounts of what it was actually like for the soldiers. I've got the politics and all that down, I've visited plenty of memorials and historical sites while I was in Europe oh so long ago now, but I don't feel like I have a strong grasp of what it was really like in the trenches. What it was like for the POWs. That kind of thing.

Anyone around here a war history buff? Got any recs for me?
