JP -- <<Not to mention blond 11 yr olds with attitude.>>

Please don't; she's one of the reasons I'm searching for obsessible material. Our blond 11-yr-old w/attitude is drivin' us bonkers. I mean, I heard all the stories, but nothing prepared me for the raging hormone storms associated with the coming of age.

Why Roman couches? Perhaps S could assist?

jp - hi. Broken glasses. I really hate that. It's better if the plywood breaks them than the dirt or concrete though, I hate psuedo-consloations too, but younger people (not that you're young, either) (I am gonna get to finish this sentence?) ~ people here are always getting blown off roofs and sadly killed (as opposed to happily or sheepishly) by HOLDING ON to that piece of plywood as that big beardy wind-gusty guy you see in the upper left corner of book illustrations appears in the sky, giggles, draws in an Alex-beer-gulp-sized breath (sucking the ring-shank nails out of your tool belt), coughs, and HACKS up a big loogie that knocks off their glasses.

That's why you mostly see that guy in stormy illustrations in books; he's not very good at real life.

But speaking of Roman Empire Era couches, I have an idea, that if it doesn't Pan out, I will be embarrassed I mentioned, but there could be something under: Pompeii, Furnishings. I'm pretty sure I have pictures of some in my book or books, and I might be even able to find them or something or something, and lead to which museums, might have pictures on line.
