Voting Question: Reviews for Step 2 Lifestyle Delux kitchen…?

Does anyone have, know someone who has, or ever seen/used it (well has ur child used it actually). This is the walk in model with the bar and stools and fo-wood floor. I’ve already purchased the regular dream kitchen from them for my 18 month old for X-mas. However I really really like the bigger one. I have a few concerns though: 1)is it as big as it looks? I am hopping no so if it is actually smaller thats not a bad thing for me. 2) Is it as nice and versatile as it seems? I have a decent size house but we have a lot of furniture and a lot going on, so I really a, nervous as to if I can find an adequate place for the bigger one. If you think it’s ovverhyped let me know that too. Thanks.

Resolved Question: Painting of a bar - Artist/Title?

Hi, I’m looking to find out about a painting I saw somewhere online: Probably set in the 50’s or somewhat earlier, a bar-ish looking shop can be seen from the dark street, with several people sitting on bar stools.
Might even be a diner of sorts, hope someone can help me out.
Thanks!

Resolved Question: now now who will give me a star?

A man walks into a bar. He sees a good looking, smartly dressed woman perched on a bar stool. He walks up behind her and says “Hi there good looking, how’s it going?”

She turns around, faces him, looks him straight in the eye and says “Listen, I’ll screw anybody, anytime, anywhere, your place, my place, it doesn’t matter. I’ve been doing it ever since I got out of college. I just flat out love it.”
To which he says “No kidding? I’m a lawyer too! What firm are you with?”

Resolved Question: Have you heard of Bar Stool Economics?

BAR STOOL ECONOMICS
>>
>> Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all
>> ten comes to $100.
>>
>> If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go
>> something like this:
>>
>> The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
>>
>> The fifth would pay $1.
>>
>> The sixth would pay $3.
>>
>> The seventh would pay $7.
>>
>> The eighth would pay $12.
>>
>> The ninth would pay $18.
>>
>> T he tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.
>>
>> So, that’s what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar
>> every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day,

>> the owner threw them a curve.
>>
>> ‘Since you are all such good customers, he said, I’m going to reduce
>> the cost of your daily beer by $20.
>>
>> Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.
>>
>> The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so
>> the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free.
>>
>> But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could
>> they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his ‘fair
share?’
>>
>> They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they
>> subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the
>> sixth man w ould each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the
>> bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill
>> by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts
>> each should pay.!
>>
>> And so:
>> The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).
>>
>> The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).
>>
>> The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).
>>
>> The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).
>>
>> The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).
>>
>> The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).
>>
>> Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four
>> continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men

>> began to compare their savings.
>>
>> ‘I only got a dollar out of the $20, ‘declared the sixth man. He
>> pointed to the tenth man, ‘but he got $10!’
>>
>> ‘Yeah, that’s right,’ exclaimed the fifth man. ‘I only saved a
>> dollar, too.
>>
>> It’s unfair that he got ten times more than I!’
>>
>> ‘That’s true!!’ shouted the seventh man. ‘Why should he get $10 back
>> when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!’*
>>
>> ‘Wait a minute,’ yelled the first four men in unison. ‘We didn’t get
>> anything at all. The system exploits the poor!’
>>
>> The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.
