Its not even the least bit insightful! This "relationship advice" is so freaking obvious that it barely counts as advice at all, it should be called "platitudes on dating".

I don't mind AT branching out a little if they actually have something to add to the conversation. But this just reads like it was lifted from ask.com. Totally mindless dribble.

Smart & pretty. But am I the only one that feels a little uneasy about the whole minimalist lampshade trend? I don't know how I feel about at looking directly into the filament of a incandescent bulb...

Despite what Mr. Goldberg says, meganpman is right. I decide to give them another chance and ordered a bentwood dog bowl in October. They sent us a note over a month ago and said it would arrive late but before Xmas. We are still waiting...

Fab has great designs, some good deals. But their shipping is a real problem. A 4-8 week wait doesn't seem reasonable.

Thanks for all the feedback.

As it turns out - we lucked out! We found a set 4 of Arne Jacobsen's three-legged "Ant Chairs" chairs in great condition for less than $400 total. Right within our price range. Now we just need to find a couple of captains chairs for the heads of the table .

Thanks again!
