The statuesque blonde walked into the dinner party on the arm of a scowling old tycoon .She took her seat at the dinner table while her escort conversed with other guests. A woman sitting near - by couldn't help but notice the huge gem hanging from her neck .
" Excuse me ", the woman said , " but I must tell you that is the most beautiful diamond I 've ever seen ".
Why thank you , It's the Blanton Diamond .
I'm surprised I never heard of it ,, and gemstones are a hobby of mine . The woman said.
Well , the blonde explained , The Blanton Diamond has a horrble curse attached to it .
Really ?? ,, the woman said ,, What is it ?
The Blonde grimmaced and gestured toward the old tycoon ,,,, " Blanton over there ".
