    My last active duty assignment was just outside of Boston. Before leaving this house (rented it out while we were gone), my wife had us dump the couch & recliner.

    Needing new living room furniture In MA, we trekked up to New Hampshire to find new stuff.

    We must have hit 1/2 dozen places and they all had neat little cafe type food bars inside (probably for all of the husbands that get drug along). Of course, my wife was on a mission and expected me at her side to give my opinions (which she mostly ignored) so I never got to try any of those furniture store cafe's out.

    All in all, I think Carl dodged a bullet on this one.

    I was beginning to think I know where a lot of forum members hang out.

    Went to IKEA for the first time a few weeks back...have no idea what any of the furniture was like...I was too busy trying to figure out where in the store I was and how I'd get the F out of there if I had too. Most confusing freakin' store I've ever been to. They want you to "follow the yellow brick road" around that freakin' place. Even the wife was EXTREMELY uncomfortable.

    Swedish furniture you put together. Really popular stuff but for the life of me, I can't figure out why.

    Personally, I see it as high end college dormitory stuff, but the price tag on their stuff is high!

    This is not a Swedish thing. Everything I bought in Belgium in 1981-84 was like that. I first saw that "Pin and twist lock" here in the states in the mid 90's. Brought on flashbacks.
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    Guys, save the trip... I can sell you their meatballs (we sell them to them), so there's no other reason to go

    Yeah - but if you do it totally wrong then you'll never be asked to do it again. Problem solved.

    I actually really like going to IKEA over any other furniture stores. I can save TONS of $$$$ by going to IKEA over Scandinavian design.
