If I knocked on your door and walked into your living room as a friend

[MoseyWalker]

What would be the first thing that caused me to say "wow! I like that!"

[Joe Fields]

1. All of my native American crafts.

[MoseyWalker]

4. I can see myself saying wow!

I have some authentic, and really good native american craftwerk, and some that I think came from china.

:thumbsup:

You have any good turquoise for cheap? I really, really do like turqoise!

[Broken_Hero]

2. the two

19 inch drums hanging on our wall, by our tv....one has a brown bear design, the other, a raven design...also, my three dvd racks of movies, just might make you say "wow!"....:)

[MoseyWalker]

7. I can almost see it!

sounds "wow" to me!

[crim son]

3. Ummmm. Moi?

It's possible.

[MoseyWalker]

12. Hey!

I just figured out what you said!

dang, I'm dumb!

Wow!

[crim son]

13. Not dumb, my friend.

Just blind! :rofl:

[MoseyWalker]

:toast:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. My dear MoseyWalker!

Perhaps.....my parlor grand piano?

But I don't know if you're musical......

[MoseyWalker]

9. Sounds unbelievably "wow"

My mom taught me and the neighbor kids piano.

[lost-in-nj]

6. Our cathedral ceiling

and stone fireplace.
We have a log cabin



:shrug:

[Broken_Hero]

8. Doh!

Can't believe I forgot about in fireplace...how dumb of me...our fireplace, will probably be the first you notice coming in, its inlaid with a huge wood stove, and brick mantle....

[MoseyWalker]

11. Is it on the market?

Wow!

[greatauntoftriplets]

10. The size of my living room....

and the swanky feel of it that prompted a friend to describe my condo as "like a penthouse, but without the terrace!"

[MoseyWalker]

14. Who needs a dang terrace?

Wow!

[greatauntoftriplets]

16. It'd be nice....

But since I am on the first floor, I wouldn't want it.

I moved here from a house with big rooms, so the big rooms here are great. :)

It's why I bought this place!

:bounce:

[sendero]

18. A large black.

... shiny grand piano :)

[MoseyWalker]

20. Sounds Wow to me!

[Reciprocity]

19. I have a cannon ball on my porch.

My house is decorated in early man. Lots of rocks, bones, shells, cones and fossils.

[MoseyWalker]

22. Wow

[graywarrior]

21. This stuff on my walls, floors, on top of furniture

Here are a few pictures we have on the walls.

[graywarrior]

61. Love the boat one.

[Reciprocity]

64. The Lady of Shallot painted by John William Waterhouse

From the poem of the same name by Tennyson.

snip
Heard a carol, mournful, holy,
Chanted loudly, chanted lowly,
Till her blood was frozen slowly,
And her eyes were darkened wholly,
Turn'd to tower'd Camelot.
For ere she reach'd upon the tide
The first house by the water-side,
Singing in her song she died,
The Lady of Shalott.

Under tower and balcony,
By garden-wall and gallery,
A gleaming shape she floated by,
Dead-pale between the houses high,
Silent into Camelot.
Out upon the wharfs they came,
Knight and Burgher, Lord and Dame,
And around the prow they read her name,
The Lady of Shalott.



Who is this? And what is here?
And in the lighted palace near
Died the sound of royal cheer;
And they crossed themselves for fear,
All the Knights at Camelot;
But Lancelot mused a little space
He said, "She has a lovely face;
God in his mercy lend her grace,
The Lady of Shalott."

[graywarrior]

67. It's very awesome.

[RedCappedBandit]

81. I love the first

They're all wonderful, but I LOVE the first picture in your post. :hi:

[Richard Steele]

24. Hard to say...but the first thing a lot of people notice is the Weltron.

edit: that pic was WAY too big! Let me go find a nudda.


Here we go: The Weltron 2005

[MoseyWalker]

27. What's a Weltron?

I gotta know!!!!!

[Richard Steele]

31. The most postmodern ultra-hip stereo system ever made in 1970.

See post above; I got a pic up now!

[MoseyWalker]

32. Oh yeah!

Man, why don't I have one of those! Wow!

[momophile]

35. damn! I wanna be your friend so I can visit your Welton!

That is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time.
:hi:

[Richard Steele]

75. Well, there's a PRICE; some consider it a HIGH price.

We keep a LippsInc 8-track in that thing; you will
have to listen to 'Funky Town' if you wanna visit the Weltron.
:headbang:Consider yourself WARNED!:headbang:

[RetroLounge]

25. Hmmm, could be many things

1) 1954 AMi Jukebox
2) 1950's Furniture
3) Giant Stuffed Panda in the fireplace
4) The many collections of 50's knick knacks
5) Stacks and stacks of books

:shrug:

RL

[MoseyWalker]

28. Can I have your living room?

Wow! Sounds really interesting!

[RetroLounge]

38. Here it is...

RL

[YellowRubberDuckie]

26. I have the most fucking awesome recliners....EVER!

That's my Skippy, by the way.
Duckie

[MoseyWalker]

29. Wow! I want one of those!

so long as no polar bears were harmed in the process!

[Ptah]

34. This painting, by my maternal Grandmother, circa 1962

HEre's a photo from Wikipedia for comparison:

[MoseyWalker]

36. Big Wow there!

Very talented. Very! Thanks.

[ThomCat]

41. It would be a toss-up

between my amazingly friendly cats, and the smell of the food cooking in my kitchen. :)

[MoseyWalker]

43. Do your cats greet friends at the door?

if so, then that's a Wow!

[ThomCat]

46. Oh yes.

My cats love anyone who might love them back. They will greet you at the door with friendly meows, and they will rub up against you if you show them any attention at all. The love to be picked up and held, and they will happily climb in your lap as soon as you sit down.

Once you play with them they will follow you around like puppies and give you nearly limitless attention and affection.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

47. I want cats like yours...

That won't make skip sick. i swear if he didn't have those damn allergies, we'd so have 2 cats.
Duckie

[ThomCat]

49. I've had 5 cats over the years

and they have all had similarly lovable personalities. It's because I baby them and give them lots of attention so they're trained to accept affection and return it. :)

I admit it, I spoil them rotten with attention.

[Deja Q]

42. Either my framed photographs, or...

can't really say here, but it's related to the fact I tend to walk around in my domicile sans clothing. :D

[MoseyWalker]

44. Uh, could you please put a frame on that?

Wow! Everything looks better in a frame!

[caty]

45. I have a framed print

by Charles M. Russell, called "Innocent Allies", that hangs on my living room wall. It show three saddled horses on a cliff. Below the cliff, the three riders are holding up a stage coach. The horses are the "innocent allies" of the robbers. I get a lot of compliments on this print.

[MoseyWalker]

48. I just looked it up on google, and Wow

I like it. I'm no artist, and don't know much about what is considered art, but I like what seems to be a combo between some kind of expressionism and realism.

I like it! Is this it?

http://www.allposters.com/-sp/Innocent-Allies-Posters_i376311_.htm

[caty]

53. Yes, that's it.

I've had it for over 20 years and will never replace it. It's just so unique (to me anyway).

[MoseyWalker]

62. It really is cool!

It gets a wow and a thanks from me for letting us know about it!

[sakabatou]

50. Nothing

Except maybe the X-Box.

[MoseyWalker]

51. I'm sure other things surround the xbox

those are probably the things that make it a wow kinda room! You've probably just seen it so much that you don't notice!

[sakabatou]

60. My dorm's living room sucks like hell

[MoseyWalker]

63. Hey, if I may suggest

get a few cinder blocks, put a stereo on top of them, hang something from the stuff, and you will get attention!

guaranteed! (note - I didn't say positive attention, but it should be!)

[sakabatou]

73. Oh god...

now it smells like shit and weed. >_<

[Radio_Lady]

52. An original oil painting hanging proudly on the wall of our den. (PHOTO)

My father painted it in 1955; taken from an vinyl record album cover by French composer Michel LeGrand "La Femme" (The Woman)

{{searching for photo...}}

[MoseyWalker]

54. Holy Woly Wow!

I can see that is a great painting. I'm not kidding. I wish I had even a print of it. I love that!

[Radio_Lady]

82. UPDATE: Oops! My computer crashed... here is the painting, a little late!

[ScreamingMeemie]

56. My puppy dog.

Sorry I've no fine paintings...no collections, no wine to offer you. Just friendship and a Sheltie:

[MoseyWalker]

58. Wow!

That is REALLY the most beautiful picture of a dog that I think I have ever seen. That is artistic.

That looks like one heck of a great dog.

[NMDemDist2]

57. my DH's brand new 50" widescreen LOL n/t

[MoseyWalker]

59. sounds like a wow, just so

you don't watch any Tom Cruise movies on it until it's broken in!

[1gobluedem]

65. The abundance of books

Four bookcases in the living room/dining room areas alone. One is 1930s glass and blonde wood Art Deco inherited from my grandparents. And all the old black and white family photos in metal frames clustered on my half moon table and others elegantly framed in my dining room above the buffet.

[MoseyWalker]

66. I truly can relate

I used to have thousands of books, but gave them mostly all away.

I am thinking "Wow" about your response right now.

Who doesn't love books and grandparents?

thanks!

[1gobluedem]

68. I can't give up my books; I have many collections...

...painstakingly acquired over the years. Two shelves are devoted to anti-Bush administration books then there are my Kennedy books, my Mitfords (Nancy and sisters, not that recent one), my Windsor books, my Bill Brysons and all my YA series collections; one just completed today with a book I've been trying to find for over ten years.

But they are beginning to take over the house. There are three shelves here in this room too plus many others throughout the house.

[MoseyWalker]

70. I have to ask, because I'm not familiar

what is this:

YA series

[1gobluedem]

77. YA=Young Adult

Also referred to as 'malt shop' books. Mostly teenage romance series from the 1940s, 50s, and 60s. I also collect YA historical fiction.

On edit: these books are now sold and described at www.imagecascade.com

[ikojo]

69. All of my books

I have a few...

[MoseyWalker]

71. Could one wander around and pull out a title or two?

sounds good to me.

:)

[ikojo]

76. Oh yes...you might also say wow

at my DVD collection.

[TankLV]

72. My Golden Recliner Sherman greeting you sticking his nose in your crotch!

That's only the first obstacle you'd have to get past - there are two more...

[Haole Girl]

74. My big black cat usually hangs around for company...

Here he is, looking out the front window:

[InvisibleTouch]

78. How do you feel about large dogs?

Because they would greet you very enthusiastically. ;)

[FILAM23]

79. Either my large grandfather clock with built in

curio cabient or my pitures of the Philippines on the wall oppossite the door.

[AutumnMist]

80. My Dogs

they are wonderful little guys. :)
