The comparison hardly rises to the level of theft. They share a motif, but since when does that constitute stealing?

Dunno...to my ear, the writing sounds a bit stiff, "quaintly small," "beds are lofted," and "adequate attention." I would prefer someone who didn't sound so forced.

I'm hoping you didn't pay money for that.

I would be Ian's favorite auntie!

I have to object strenuously to the parallel that is being drawn between the desecration of a cultural monument that is 1000s of years old, and the inscription of one's name on a piece of property that belongs to the person doing the inscribing. They are hardly the same, and if every person who passed by the Temple of Dendur and other monuments over the millenia inscribed their names, there would be nothing left.

Stunning and lush - not at all Charlie Brown. Congrats!

Saleboat - there is no right or wrong side for refrigerator doors to open. It really depends on where they are located. If this fridge opened the other way, it would open into a corner making access difficult. On most new refrigerators you can actually switch which way they open - sadly, the fridge in my rental predates this convenience and it opens away from the kitchen and drives me nuts!!

Not. Not. Not. Irrespective of one's feelings on genealogy.

Curtis, I saw another take on that in a neighbor's apartment. She had glass cut to place on top of the sills after they were freshly painted. It makes them so much easier to clean, and unlike corian it doesn't matter what color the surroundings are.

Another option is to buy curtains and add a fat border at the bottom (or in the middle or wherever) to get the length you want. I used it pretty effectively because the material I used is also less sheer than the rest so it masks the bottom of the wall where the windows fall short. By introducing a different fabric you also give it some visual weight/definition. Its the perfect compromise between buying the length you need and making them from scratch, and the added panel gives you the opportunity for some customization without the hassle of doing the whole thing.
