Yes, but then I thought I better keep my day job(s) or I will be a homeless artist, drawing pictures on the sidewalk with chalk.<BR/><BR/>lover/fighter- I'm so glad you are passionate about this too. Perhaps we can start some kind of Ikea revolt. Or Ikea strike. I dunno, you come up with the clever name. <BR/><BR/>peter- i'm glad you enjoyed it. if you like, i can draw a picture of you too. it will look just like Gus, but wearing a baseball cap.Hollywood Suckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06148030851663861313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223705276824066463.post-9825187379928189722008-02-07T05:30:00.000-08:002008-02-07T05:30:00.000-08:00Words and pictures?

Who was I going to call? Sweden? Come now.<BR/><BR/>In my opinion, Ikea's saving grace (other than affordability) is the highly entertaining christening of products- Effektiv and Dudero and the like. Pronouncing those things phonetically makes me giggle.<BR/><BR/>for extended ikea coverage of an old lady drying her hair, go to www.ikea-usa.com/calmbedrooms. it's worth it- to me at least. <BR/><BR/>Sorry about the epic comment.
