ok, here is how it happened. a week ago, while at my bday dinner i was outside smoking at the restraunt , its nightime, i look down and see a large black emerald cut gem. i pick it up and its plastic. bummer. now, few days ago i had to sell off some gold and silver to help pay the down payment for our new car. i was kinda upset that we had to sell so much. after i sold the bullion i was on the phone with my wife talking to her about it. while talking i had the phone between my shoulder and cheek talking and looking at the ground while walking. something gleamed and caught my eye. i looked closer and in the asfault in a crack, half covered with sand i pick up a 1/4"2mm diamond? i get all excited and explain to my wife what just happened. i get hope and start trying to look for inclusions. i cant tell if there are or not. later that day i go to a jewler who examines with his loupe. he says its not real. so i put it on the backburner to get checked by a machine some day. 4 days later (yesterday) i was again on the phone, with my mom this time, holding the phone the same way looking at the ground while removing things from our car. and something catches my eye......... in a crack between the driveway and laid brick....... another diamond?!!!!!! this time 1/4". i really started freaking out. i have not yet gone to get this one checked. now im sure no one believes me but its no lie. honest to god. REAL OR FAKE THEY REPRESENT DIAMONDS. im starting to worry about omens and what not no. the first one was beginners luck, the second one??? no way, not in a week, not even trying!!! so PLEASE if anyone knows what this means, please contact me!!!!!
and this all happened miles apart
i have pics, but they are at home, im at work and will upload later tonight.

Once is happenstance.

Twice is coincedence.

Three times is enemy action.

Yep. It's bad luck that they're not real.

I don't think evil spirits deal in "paste" stones. :D

The Universe is sending you a message mate. All that glitters is not gold, it's in your hands to find out what the real gems are in life.

Re: very unbelievable!!!!please read if you know about diamonds and myths/omens

Steve, I'm not sure about in the rough. I once found a bracelet with VERY big diamonds in my cab. I did a bunch of research and decided they were real and the baby blue trick was one trick I read would assure the authenticity of a diamond. I returned it to the owner, it was valued at 20,000 dollars! It had 22 half Karats on it. The guy gave me a hundred dollar bill and a bottle of Dom Perignon.
