   What is the deal with all the chairs on the walls? Did I miss a memo on the newest decorating trend?

   When I lived in a studio apartment, I never ever thought of putting the chairs on the ceiling. Reminds me of Mary Poppins

   What's the deal with hanging chairs on walls? I don't understand this trend at all.

   Heh. Yeah, now the chairs are just messing with you, Sara.

   My guess on this one is that since it's a small space, they've rigged a way to hang extra chairs up on the wall out of the way, like people have those hooks to hang a bike from. I think moving them to take the picture would have been a good move, though!

   Levitating chairs. Heh.

   Again with the decorative wall chairs? I must admit though, as someone with three obnoxious dogs, this might be a great way to eat in peace.

   They are Chair's TM (transcendental meditation) practicing cousins. You know, if you meditate right you can levitate. These chairs (with a small 'c') are obviously way above us.

    Oh well, a chair on the wall is worth one burning sofa in the hedgerow.

    I knew someone who used to dumpster dive and changed is decorations that way..tire rim, bicycle, etc.. I sure wouldn't want to be there during an earthquake though.

    I`m pretty sure those chairs are hung on the wall as decoration, as art.

    I do share enough of the enthusiasm to recognize various modern classics among their chair collection (I`m sitting on an Eames chair right now), but hanging them on the wall does seem a bit precious, or pretentious.

    ok, I am wiping tears from my eyes so I can type this. I am commenting here, but referring to pages and pages of entries when I say that I have been absolutely belly-laughing for the past 30 minutes here. Your comments are phenomenal, reduce me to a silent gacking laugh, throwing myself backwards against the back of the couch, holding my stomach. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. You could market this site for the weight loss fad if laughter burns as many calories as it is said to. Also market it as an anti-depressant!

    Anyway, thank you for the cheering of the month.

    Ya, actually those are all famous and somewhat valuable chairs. Speaking as a chair collector myself (who mostly stores them in the shed) it has never occurred to me to hang them on the wall.

    Guess what I am doing this weekend?

    I think I saw this house on Ghost Hunters – this is first evidence of poltergeist activity caught on camera.
