Hmmmm...

I like it...

I like the style and because I can imagine this massive centerpiece over the fireplace in a very swanky pad, or maybe a hi-rise loft around 50 years ago, with dinner party guests sipping their cocktails underneath while listening to the latest vinyl on the stereo hi-fi set. And that bamboo frame is a novel little detail that I'd really go for. But at the same time, I'm just not sure about the theme. Now if were Polynesian instead... then I'd snatch it up in a heartbeat!

Assignment: You Choose

Today I have a test for you. Don't worry, this involves nothing painful like a poke with a needle by a student nurse or reciting the Gettysburg Address while nasty children throw rotten tomatoes at you.

All that I'm asking is for you to pick just one of the following examples that you like best, and a short explanation why.

Now remember, I want to see your report on my desk first thing in the morning. If you do well on your homework, I may dismiss you for an early recess. But if you score poorly, you may be kept after school (along with those nasty kids who were caught tossing the tomatoes).

After all, I only said this wasn't painful... I didn't say there weren't any consequences. :D

Temptations

Atomic Boomerang glassware! I feel like partying already!


hmmmm... One very laid-back Fifties clock, rounded edges... and I like the hands.


Hey! It's Ralph's bowling ball bag and bowling ball (inside the bowling ball bag)!


Anthropomorphic ware always looks good in the kitchen... but I don't know...


Yes, its a Lincoln Beautyware papertowel/foil/wax paper organizer. I must have this because I'm all about being better organized... plus it looks kinda spiffy :)


"Oh my darling Chrome Chair, *sigh* We can't go on meeting like this again!"
What will the neighbors think? Why must you lure me in so?... always begging for me to take you with me, when I already have a kitchenette set at home to think of.
