So if you had tons of money to waste (and I mean really waste) what would you're perfect house be like?

Me I'd have a room just for balls and blow up furniture. There'd be a sunken part that had the kiddie ball type thing, but there would also be all different sizes of balls...most of them would be sparkly or partially see through. There would be some blow up furniture too and a projector would be showing cartoons and Hilarious House of Frightenstien on the wall. When it wasn't showing cartoons it might be projecting sixties type psychedelic stuff....no I think I'd show that in the room with the egg chairs...

I would have at least one chair shaped like a hand.

I would have a room that you would have to get into using one of those spinning darkroom doors. Instead of being black it would have spirals on it or maybe patterns cut out of it...something to add to the spiny fun.

There of course would be a secret bookcase door. There would probably be two, because Ian would want one for his studio and I would want one, that I would have more reason to use.

Yep I'm crazy :)

So If you were crazy and had crazy money what would you have in yer house?

Definitely the room behind the book case. Maybe even Batpoles leading down to a secret basement or something.

But definitely hidden rooms or passageways.

I really don't have that much to hide, and I'd most likely show these rooms to everyone that came over, so they wouldn't be that secret, but I love that stuff.

The Batpoles is a great idea!! I want that too!

Most of my Windows would be triangular or circular.

Sounds good. :)

I saw this bad movie...in it this guy had women sitting in glass bubbles in bikinis. I told him I would sit around in a glass bubble if he wanted but if he was going to have gang wars I wanted them to be made of bullet proof glass.

Mine would be hi tech and modern on the inside, but the outside would look like a house from feudal Japan.

I am lucky to have never had silverfish in my house. I have little black basement bugs and spiders. Every once in awhile I see a sow bug in the basement and those creep me out the most. I don't know why but I am much more creeped out by flexible insects.

I'd like a house made out of windows, big giant windows. Some stained glass ones, but mostly clear. all rounded corners too, like a cave, and all the bedrooms would be just a little cave off of the giant main living area. Big fireplace in the middle. All self sufficient renewable resource generated energy. All this of course, on a private island in the forests of Manitoba or Ontario. Or on a farm/ acerage. I would also like a lookout tower, and a pirate ship.

My Dad has an unfinished basement that just drives me absolutely crazy. I keep telling him to move to Florida and let me have his house.

Oh, the things I would do to that basement. Home theater. Gym. Game room.

I wouldn't mind having a Japanese-influenced courtyard garden.

As for the house--my ideal house would be one that we could actually own. :sigh:

We recently had a room in our basement remodeled into a home theater room, which is now concealed behind an unassuming "bookcase" door. Very cool, indeed. :ohyes: It also has...

...so I'm pretty happy.

My dream home would be a castle with lots of secret rooms and passageways. And Jimbo's CD collection.

I don't like those centipede things. They can get pretty damn huge.

Next to the garage, I'd want a 20x30' room with 10-foot ceilings and concrete floors. All of my bikes would hang on the walls, and I'd have a fully-outfitted shop with 3 Park workstands, and 3 of each tool 'cause I tend to misplace stuff. Off to the side, I'd have a set of training rollers in front of a bigscreen TV and a great big fan.

I'd hook up the training rollers to power converters, so the energy could be stored and re-used later. All that energy you use could run some of your house!

A wall of bikes and a bunch of tools sounds cool to me!

We get occasional large bugs that Honey calls "water bugs." We've also had lady bug invasions. We have one of those "husband kills the bugs" arrangements. Unless of course a bug has to be killed and the husband isn't there!

We also used to have slugs in the kitchen. I walked in there late one night after I woke up needing a drink of water and found one on the floor in front of the sink. It was kind of creepy.

WE get ants sometimes too. I don't get too bothered by them though.

Sometimes our cat eats a spider, because some spiders are really dumb and like to run right in front of him, or on him. I'm pretty sure spiders are a really high potent drugs for cats. I always wondered why he went crazy every once in awhile then I caught him eating spiders and noticed a connection.

I would also want one of those wall fish tanks you see in James Bond type movies.
