As a piggyback question off my other thread......When asking a man to move furniture why do you always pick the second heaviest piece in the house? Furthermore, after he has moved it to 5 different places, why do you send the poor sot back to the first place you sent him to and decide that you liked that one the best? Finally when he's exhausted from playing around the world (or living room) with the second heaviest piece of furnature, why do you start the whole process over again with the heaviest? Why? Why? Why?

I think there is genious in your exploits. And I also believe that it is a means of torture. Could any of you confirm this? If this is a means of torture is the subject of my other thread a similar instrument of your diabolical schemes?

Simple.. see the room aesthetics differ based on which heavy object is near which wall versus which view one has at the time of moving said heavy objects. Now should the view or the viewer change in any way, you need to reasses and that entails starting all over again! And the moon's phases do play a part in determing the exact pull of tidal waves on the furniture in question. *smarta$$ alert*

Well, you never know how things are gonna look until you move em and see. Sometimes you are wrong, and it doesn't look as good as you thought, so you change it again, but then it looks even worse than before, i.e., you end up deciding on your original set up, as it turned out to be the best one. Hey, you are getting good exercise No? Not to mention there is something about a man heaving heavy furniture, bulging biceps etc., on your behalf, that makes a lady feel appreciated

Hey, if you want to have things equal, have her cook you a really nice dinner in return Is only fair

I knew it! Ha now I know the secret! There is absolutely nothing I can do about it.......but I KNOW THE SECRET! Heh.....I didn't even have to use tickling or dog slobber to get the answer out of you. Or at least part of the answer.

Arghhh....Women!!! *In a state of frustration bordering on rage OTP spins around and storms off, only to stub his little toe on a coffee table he had just moved minutes before for CloudSparkle. Undeterred in his resolve to exit angrily, OTP, holding his left foot in both hands, hops out of site, muttering something under his breath.*

Truth be known, I'm sure I owe her much more than she will ever owe me. But if you tell a sole I said that, I will deny it vehemently.
