Yay! Love it!

I'd paint the doors and trim black to match the walls, and I'd ditch the candle thing.

I want DSL at home, so that means a landline. Seems silly to pay for a cell phone on top of paying for a landline, so I do without the cell phone. Skype is an incredible deal -- free computer-to-co...

A gold star for having practical, useful task lighting. I mean, someone could sit in the armchair and actually read.

Woof! Hehehe.

Cork will absorb shocks, too. Try it under the feet of your components.

Gosh, this is so '70s -- I think Ronco marketed bottle cutters then.

I feel bad for taking the bait, but I bought one, too. I've been really frustrated this winter with acrylic throws that pill and shed and aren't warm enough.

Clear glass showers scream porn set, and the opaque is like showering inside a box.

I sit in a "lobby" with two others, and I often find myself in situations where I have to negotiate a contract with a Federal agency over the phone while students stand two feet behind me gabbing a...

Black. Glossy black.

Where are the TVs?

To me, the big problem is the site -- it really needs some human-scale landscaping. I love visiting Boston, but how can a city with so many beautiful old buildings end up with so many ugly new ones...

People who listen to Journey deserve to be sneered at. I find these interiors less obnoxious than the generic catalog showplaces praised a lot here.
