I think it's time we did some re-decorating in the Lounge

[Lavender Brown]

Seriously, who thought this looked good in the first place?

[JimmyJazz]

1. I gotta tell ya, LB - I think we are sort of a faux animal skin

black shiny furniture kinda crowd - Although, I really think some plastic slip covers are in order as well.

[Lavender Brown]

2. Ok - but no lava lamps

They are dangerous.

[SarahB]

3. I'd rather go with something like this.

[Lavender Brown]

6. White upholstery in the Lounge? That's asking for trouble!

That is really pretty, though.

[SarahB]

14. We can just stock up on this stuff...

[JimmyJazz]

8. Oh my Sarahbelle - I think that's a little frilly for the likes of

some of these scoundrels - Waverly! Needlepoint pillows! - However, the topiary is quite lovely. And you forgot this picture:

[SarahB]

12. They will submit to my sweet fluffiness!

:P

[SoCalDem]

9. Since this admin is determined to take us back in time...why not this"

Kem Weber
Elevation of Rumpus Room for W. E. Bixby, Sr., Residence, 1936-37
watercolor and graphite on board

[Debbi801]

47. Ooooh, I've always wanted a Rumpus Room.

[StopTheMorans]

4. do you have anything in a polka-dot pattern?

[Gothic Sponge]

5. Where did you find a picture of my den?

;)

[Lavender Brown]

10. That's YOU?

:o

[FuzzySlippers]

51. I always suspected you were Liberace's love child.

:P

[Pacifist Patriot]

7. I would have such bizarre nightmares if I lived in that.

[SarahB]

11. Here's the bedroom...

Don't forget the adjoining jacuzzi....

[StopTheMorans]

13. that looks a little racy for my tastes

O8)

[SarahB]

17. Yeah, well...

the jacuzzi looks big enough for a party. :P

[BlondieK143]

15. Not enough room in either!

Have you seen the amounts of deprived people in the Lounge? :D

[StopTheMorans]

16. deprived, or depraved?

probably a lot of both; actually :D

[JimmyJazz]

21. So, what are you wearing today?

:7

[StopTheMorans]

26. damn it; i got burnt on this same question yesterday

but i'm pretty frickin gullible; so here goes: a light-blue sweater and a pair of chinos. happy now? :)

[JimmyJazz]

28. I'm always happy! See my smile?

:7

And, how did I burn you yesterday?

[StopTheMorans]

30. that makes two of us!

:7 :) :D although yesterday, some poster asked me what i was wearing, and then wasn't totally truthful in reply. i'm just trying to be honest here people, is that too much to ask :shrug:

[JimmyJazz]

35. You don't honestly think I sit at the p.c.

nekkid while I'm at work do you? I mean, I suppose I could, but it would cause some serious prairie dogging in the old cube farm - ya know!

[StopTheMorans]

46. no, that was all tongue-in-cheek

sarcasm is, by far, my favorite literary device (that, along with feigning naivete :)

[JimmyJazz]

48. Is that what that was?

:P

[BlondieK143]

25. Definitely both!

:D

[Lavender Brown]

18. There isn't a heart-shaped hot tub in all the world

big enough for us all.

[BikeWriter]

22. Did you say...

...deprived or depraved?

[SarahB]

24. A better bed perhaps?

[Phillycat]

19. Use this site for inspiration:

Sample room:

[JimmyJazz]

23. Does the carpeting on the walls cut down on the noise?

:hi:

[Phillycat]

27. Yes. The rug burns on elbows and knees are unavoidable, though.

[JimmyJazz]

29. What's rugburn?

:evilgrin:

[Phillycat]

31. Oh...uh...this is what I hear, you know, from the kids. I wouldn't know.

[Lavender Brown]

33. That is why we have to cut down on Twister in the Lounge.

Too much roughhousing, kids.

[underpants]

20. I prefer the understated class of Elvis's TV room

[Zuni]

32. I'm with you

[short bus president]

34. You've all got it wrong.

Wall-to-wall beanbag chairs are in order, here. And a securely-mounted pommel horse (or possibly a mechanical bull) in the center of the room. And don't forget the mirrored ceiling.

[Lavender Brown]

37. And an ice skating rink.

[short bus president]

40. Ice?

Kinky!

[Zuni]

38. mechanical bull? Why not have a real life rodeo pit?

I am sure we can get Federal funding from the Bush administration to pursue the Texan arts.

[JimmyJazz]

39. Wow - you forgot to mention free pizza paddles to the first

500 visitors :P

[short bus president]

41. OK - clearly you've had too much coffee, dear.

You should go spend some time relaxing in the, erm, "multiple dog walking leash" suspended from the heavy duty eye bolt in the ceiling over there...

;-)

[JimmyJazz]

42. no need to wink - I think EVERYONE got it

:*

[short bus president]

43. OK. That's it.

Lounge folks - wedding gifts for Miss Jimmy and I may be purchased online or in person, at the place we've registered: Petsmart.

:D

[JimmyJazz]

45. I don't recall ever saying "yes" to you --

well, at least not to a marriage proposal :7

[Zuni]

36. I say we go with a turkish prisonesque revival motif

or an S/M themed castle dungeon with leather furniture?

[AlCzervik]

44. Wow, it's so subtle and classy.

[FuzzySlippers]

49. Is that Liberace?

[Lavender Brown]

50. Nope. It's Matcom

:o
