I don't know any married heterosexual males that were allowed to
decorate their nest. We only write the checks.

My wife and I both have veto powers. We're weird, though. We think
marriage
is a partnership.


I don't decorate. If I did, I'd remodel the kitchen with the Premier
line of Gladiator Garage cabinets.


I always thought if I designed a house the kitchen floor would be brick
with a drain in the middle. Throw down some Tide, scrub it, and hose it
down. Oh, and there would be a loading dock too.


You really want that 8x8 terra cotta tile like they use in commercial
kitchens, for exactly that reason. At the club my wife ran the cooks
would hose that place down every night before they left with 160+
degree water. All of the equipment was rolled out and they started
about 5' up the FRP walls, then rolled the stuff back and finished up
the middle. It was like a steam bath in there.
