VisualLingual, beautiful room - and gorgeous snowshoe!

Anyone know if these symbols are universal, or just used in North America?

Very bad. Products like these promote resistance, and down the line we'll have more super germs which will prove harder to kill.

The Walk Scores are bogus. I tried an address in Venice, Italy - a city in which you have to walk everywhere because there are no roads or cars. It gave a score of 45, labeling the add...

I think you're missing the point, plus adding in inflammatory comments (the child abuse comparison = straw man argument) and sanctimonious attitudes (argumentum ad hominem). You're a vegan and talk...

PS Was also trying to address Evello's comments, not just yours.

You didn't offend me. I'm comfortable with my choices. I did read your post, but I'm not sure you read mine. Your reasoning is flawed. Just because you do something incrementally sub-optimal is no ...

Interesting reasoning. I have a small apartment and a cat. Bad me. Therefore I should have no qualms about keeping a fish in a tiny bowl, nor should I open my mouth to protest that it...

The cowboy is killing me! But I seriously want this curtain gadget. Pick me!

Next project: Lining the windows with aluminum foil.

Horrible and tacky. Why?

Won't it demagnetize credit cards arriving in the mail (or your wallet, if you tuck it in there)?

Charming! What are those floating book brackets on the wall by the television? How are they affixed to the wall? I really like how they provide space for books but keep the look light.

400 square feet, really? Eddie, you use the space very well. and also keep it from looking cluttered. Love the red touches. Bravo!

I agree with Laurita. Although I think mine is a small cool apartment, I would never consider entering the contest. My choices may not all be highbrow, but I made them deliberately, and I'm happy w...
