Banana peels fact or fiction?

Friday, February 5th, 2010 at 9:50 am

Okay, im at a major crossroad in my existance. This answer could prove futile to the realm in which i currently reside.

I watch tv, so I know how banana peels are supposed to work.

Ive put peels on the roads, no cars ever slip, they just crush my peels.
Ive put peels on the carpet, no avail,(Mom was super pissed)
ive put peels in the shower.
Ive put peels on the kitchen bar stools
ive put peels on the toilet

I seem to just keep getting in trouble and im grounded now, so I have time to think this one thorugh, but no luck.

What am i doing wrong, I get yelled at but no one slips, ever. Is this banana peel thing real? If so what am i doing wrong.

Please help:(

I am getting a little fed ups with my 15 year old son. I keeps walking in on him doing innapropriate things to various pieces of our living rooms furniture. It’s happened on numerous occasions…the shower curtains, the window sills, the kitchen bar stools. Pretty much you name it, he has "been with" it. Yesterday I caught him with his pants down trying to stick "himself" in a small hole on our couch cushion. Is this a case of boys just being boys or does he need professional help? I also worry about company coming over and catching him up to his normal shenanigans. I would be mortified if, for example, he did something innapropriate with an overnight guest’s luggage!

A Word About Choosing Bar Stools

Finding and choosing the right kind of Bar Stools or counter stools for your bar, home or your kitchen is an important part choice, as many different sizes, materials, finishes and colors.
First of all, decide if you are choosing Counter Stools or Bar Stools, as they are somewhat different. Bar stools are usually a little taller, by around 4 inches. A good measurement to consider is to make sure that the stool's cushion or seat is about 10 to 12 inches from the underside of the bar or counter. That way, you know that you and your guests will be seated comfortably and have suitable leg room while seated.
Sometimes you may want to go with backless stools, if you don't have a lot of space or room. They have no backs or arms and so they are easier to move around.
Another important consideration is choosing the right height of the foot rests of your bar stools. If you don't get the right foot rest heights ahead of time, you may not be getting the right stools and people will not be very comfortable or have proper leg room while sitting at your home bar.
Of course, seating comfortably will be different for everyone, but if you sit and see the foot rest height is good for you, it will probably do for most. Unless you are getting custom bar stools made for you, you have to get them with the foot rests as they are.
Take your measurements with you when you go shopping and know the heights of the counter or bar surface and underside and ask for help from the salesperson if you are not sure of what sizes to get.
If you purchase adjustable barstools, where you can raise or lower the height of the stool itself, then it's easier to allow the user to adjust to find the right height for the most comfort while sitting. This is ideal if you want to use the stools for different places in your home, from the kitchen counter to the home bar or a kitchen island, for example. Most brands and makers of kitchen and bar stools that are adjustable allow about 10 to 15 inches, which can accommodate almost anyone.
