		<description>Beautiful! I have it in white, and I did NOT arrange it as well as you did. I think Josh wants to keep it in the divorce, which is fine with me, so long as I can get a new one to arrange PERFECTLY this time! 

I hadn&#039;t known about this website, and all I can say is WOW. You quite easily are one of the top three people I know in terms of creating natural beauty. (And I have to say top three only because I know so many talented people.) 

Love

		<description>I don&#039;t like fussy complicated furnishings and decor. SO WHY HAVE I COMPLETELY FALLEN HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE WITH YOUR LIGHT!!!??? It is absolutely incredible, and I want one for my twelve foot high ceiling. Definitely a fantasy at this point in time - but I have added it to my &#039;wish list&#039;.</description>

		<description>Fabulous drama. Outstanding use of the Boontje light. I am surprised to see the Benedict light, though. The originals (?) are still being made and my neighborhood hardware store sells them for about $3 each. (This is in Bushwick, Brooklyn.) They are slightly different, actually a bit sleeker looking. How curious.</description>

		<description>I know you have closed the comments on Michael Jackson, but I just found your site....very inspirational. 

I wanted (needed) to say that I too am so very sad about the loss of this great entertainer. I was on vaction when I heard the news from CNN and thought for sure that Michael would be revived - he&#039;s too young! However, the tragic news was then reported that he was gone...I couldn&#039;t believe it!

I read through all of the comments on your MJ post and felt comforted by 99% of the writers - it was like therapy reading other comments and realizing that I wasn&#039;t alone in my thoughts and feelings.

Last night I was browsing the internet and stumbled onto Michael Jackson&#039;s videos and interviews on youTube. I stayed up entirely too late but I just couldn&#039;t stop watching and learning. I have always supported MJ and will continue to defend him. And after watching all the interviews - I&#039;m even more convinced that he was a gentle soul.

On one interview, Michael stated that he preferred being around children because they were innocent - he could see the face of God in them. Watching the videos last night was inspirational because MJ had such fatherly love for all children, he knew they were the future. It was important to him that the children knew they were loved, so that they could in turn, love themselves and others. His work with underprivileged and cancer stricken children was heartwarming. What a positive difference he made in their lives. Again he preferred being with children because he had been tricked, abused, and hurt by adults....repeatedly.

I know that MJ was extremely frustrated with the media - all he was trying to do was entertain and use his celebrity status/music to reach people for the good. Just listening to his lyrics was proof of his passions! I&#039;m so disappointed with the media on many levels. (For me, this is just about the last straw.) After the media built him up - they tried to knock him down with a vengeance. Again, I think MJ felt hurt and severely shocked by all the accusations - not to mention the embarrassment of the trials - all he was trying to do was make the world a better place. Showing true courage and integrity, Michael tried to explain things - to set the record straight - and to do this meant that he was trying to let the world know what was being falsely reported/accused. Whether the reporting was on his skin disease, his surgeries, his personal life, or his three children the media felt it was all &quot;fair&quot; game...but truly, is it really anyone else&#039;s business? Again, another example of the media taking the amendments too literally and therefore causing yet another tragic event. When will this abuse end?

I think Michael Jackson was an exceptional humanitarian, philanthropist, father, son, and entertainer. I&#039;m still so sad for the world&#039;s loss.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s ok, Puck.  You would be happy to know we removed much of the berber carpet in our old house and had the floors redone... Although, after seeing what Anna has done, I could have saved oodles and just painted the darn things... :)  Unfortunately, I would put vinyl windows in this 90 year old house in a nano-second.  I do agree that the old ones can be beautiful but ours are so old and demolished, the very thought of re-doing them makes me cringe.  And since we are limited in funds, paying someone else is out.  But in a perfect world, I would totally re-do them...  :)</description>

		<description>Lori - My comment about berber carpet and vinyl windows was about people in historic homes.  Nothing makes me more sad than people replacing fantastic wood windows with cheap vinyl ones.  They think they are doing the right thing, but it is wrong, wrong, wrong.  Also sad to see people cover up woods floors with carpet, using a bajillion staples nonetheless.  :)</description>
