Riddle me this. My wife was wanting a new comforter. She found one she wantrd on four different store websites.
Same brand(Eddie Bauer) and same size (king)
The riddle... The measurements differ in the comforter and shams

Two had this..

I don't get it. How can the same brand, same size have different measurements for different stores? Typos maybe?

I was thinking that it is rather odd to have "king-sized" and "queen-sized" beds. Why not "jack-sized"? Or "ace-sized"?

And who says that the king has to be bigger than the queen? I imagine there could be cases of a bigger queen or a shorter king.

This must be a pawn-sized bed (although I've heard they're more comfortable than they look).

I hate how theres nothing the length of a twin and the width of a full. That would be sufficient for me, but I have necer heard if such a mattress existing so I have a queen sized one.

No cornholio I am not. Ironic, a past corn fumes addict and now cornholio… stay away from the corn fumes…. You are better off without them

Tomorrow is today but now is still now.

It is one of those days..... nothing really bad, just a lot of little things..... makes me consider running away from home.... as well as asking myself, why did I ever stop being a biker...... because if I had a Harley right now..... I might just run away from home.....

Nah, that is not running away as it is so much being on the run.... I mean stealing a bike and all

 

[Wu Wei]

Oh well..... time for lunch

Although hubby was born in Cheshire his family are Yorkshire born and bred. So i teased mom and dad in law with "what's the best thing to come out of Yorkshire"

I think they expected me to say 'you two'

But i continued with "the M62 motorway"

Trust me, that doesn't go down well with Yorkshire people...;-)
