linoleum... the wonders of the past

 

In late nite TV ads this would be the fat and sweaty "before" picture. 

So there is this line, "Behold, the Underminer! I'm always beneath you, but nothing is beneath me!" what he didn't realize was that he was referencing the lovely former flooring (current below layers) of linoleum and beigey beige wall to wall carpet at the farm. (movie ref, oh come on, it is the internet, there is more than porn there, though not much, go look)

 

It looks like carpet, but it isn't

There is beneath me, mostly subfloor, crawlspace and mice skeletons, but that is another post (we hope will never, NEVER be posted, for that will be the 8th sign of the apocalypse, just after that Swedish guy plays checkers with death, you sunk my battleship).

Harley, though a bad girl, is still kinda a hotty.

(a cartoon, but still a hotty, and not in a Betty way)

so...

 

I was promised a treadmill on which to walk Astro.  

Cool flooring. Not sure where it came from, or why there is a different pattern in every room, though we could probably spin a reasonable story about that, given the fluid nature of the house's construction. Still, look at these amazing patterns! Argyle! Faux carpet! Meet George Jetson! And the very best, hidden under the bottom drawer of the built-in dresser...faux red velvet, befitting a retro piano lounge.

 

again, not carpet, but oooh...and aahh...

(oh, and this would be the hotty and smiley "after" picture)
