I know that teak is the best wood for patio furniture because of many properties of the wood but was wondering if I bought a piece of furniture that was meant to be indoors but it was made out of teak and I put it outdoors, would it hold up well?

I adopted a 7 month puppy around 7 weeks ago. She hates being confined and hates being left alone. She ate through the first crate I got her which had plastic sides. I got a new one with metal bars on the sides, and she tries to eat through the metal, but can only bend the metal bars so far.

I have been able to coax her into her crate with treats for the first 7 weeks, but she is now wise to being locked in before I leave for work, and she won’t go anywhere near it when I try to coax her in.

The last two mornings, I have had to pick her up and try to force her into the crate. Then she tries to run out. Today I had to spank her and yell at her, which I hate to do, as I know the crate is supposed to the a "happy place."

In the evening, she willingly enters the crate to play with toys and chew on a bone. Just as long as the door is open and she knows she won’t be locked in, she seems to like to go into the crate.

So what can I do? I tried to leave her in the house unattended, but she became destructive, and I don’t want my house to be destroyed.

For various reasons, I cannot leave her in my back yard all day, and I don’t have a garage…

I’ve thought about "chaining" her to a heavy piece of furniture during the day when I’m at work…

If I cannot find a way to keep her and my house safe during the day when I’m at work, I’m afraid I will have to take her back to the dog pound, which I hate to do, because at this point the puppy and I are very close!

I know there are several more "I have a dent in my head" questions here, but this one is a bit different. My bed has a round, metal "headboard" of sorts at the head. I have recently, without realizing until I move, spent lots of time resting my head on the metal headrest. It USED to put a kink in my neck, but recently hasn’t been causing me neck pain. That was in itself several months ago.

Just earlier this evening, as I got up from yet again unconsciously spending several hours with my head against this round metal bar, I felt a dent in the back of my skull exactly where my head laid against the pole, curved, in the top back of my head. I had to lay back on it a few times without moving my lower body to convince myself that the curve in my skull was exactly where the pole was.

Now all of a sudden I’m sick to my stomach over the idea that I may have caused myself some sort of damage. I don’t even know for sure if laying there is what caused it, though I’ve spent a lot of time on that metal piece of furniture and the impression fits perfectly.

AT ANY RATE, whether or not the dent on the back of my head is caused by this pole, is it possible that by laying someone’s skull on a hard surface for hours at a time, over the course of several months, they can cause a negative impact on their brain?

I would like to purchase a table/stand to put against a wall in my foyer to make drinks/store a carafe on (with Scotch or Bourbon), but I am not sure of the correct term for such a piece of furniture, and searches for "home bar", "drink stand", and "cocktail table" have not yielded the results I’m looking for. I have noticed such tables in various TV shows and think they make a nice accent piece.

Does anyone know the formal name of this piece of home decor, and where I might purchase one?

Thanks!

Our cat won’t walk on the floor anymore. He jumps onto the furniture and stays there. When he moves, he finds a way to jump onto another piece of furniture. He will go to the kitchen to eat and use the litter box but I have no idea what happened. He always sat on the floor often in the way. Any ideas??

I need to know the title of this comedy movie.
Things I remember about it is it is set is set in Florida.
Main character and his son move there. FBI go into a bar and russians are building illegal bombs that looks like a vacuum cleaner. There is a couple and they aren’t happily married. The husband ripped off the mafia or something and gets a bullet in his T.V. gets chained to a piece of furniture accidently licks a toad and sees Marta stuarts head on a dogs body and screams and runs away. Theres a jesus like character who lives in a treehouse maid finds him and falls in love and the bad husband loves her feet. I hope you can tell me the title of it cause I can’t find it at all.

1) be married to someone who insists that every electric device in your home be controlled by those "clap on, clap off" devices -OR- that every piece of furniture have plastic covers?
2) develop gills that work and are hardly visible -OR- grow wings that work but are ugly and conspicuous?
3) perform at a stand up comedy club -OR- perform karaoke at a bar?
4) As a man, be beaten up by a wimpy guy-OR- a female pro wrestler (and everybody knew about it)
5) Eat airline food for a week -0R- hospital food for a week?
6) Be able to go forward in time on 3 occasions of your choice -OR- backwards in time only once?
7) Be in an exotic tribe where you must stretch your neck until it is 18 inches long-OR-be in a tribe were a plate is inserted into your lower lip, causing it to eventually hang down 6 inches from your mouth?

I’ve been on craig’s list for the last two weeks trying to find a piece of furniture for my kitchen. I used to ignore all those couches, sectionals and such that were for sale for 0 – 00 b/c the way I see it, nobody in their right mind would spend 00 on a used "living room set in mint condition". Leather or not, if I had two grand to spend I’d go buy a decent sectional at a furniture store. And don’t get me started on people selling mattresses.
Well, recently my friend told me her friend just sold a (used!) mattress for 0.
And it’s not just furniture: expensive fishtanks, clothes, and other things.
Question: are people seriously buying used stuff for that much money?! If yes – WHY???
If not, what happens to that super expensive stuff? Does the seller just keep it?
by what happens I meant, do they donate it/toss it? If someone’s selling something b/c they got a dining room set… it takes too much space to keep it, IMO.

I have been told that I can use chicken wire, but I would like something more professional looking. I want to take the glass inserts out of an old secretary and replace that glass with the metal grids. That would give this piece of furniture a french provincial look. Thanks for the help!

I saw this cabinet at a friend’s house, he got it from his grandparents, and has no idea where they got it from. The cabinet is kindof old, probably from the 60′s or 70′s. It’s really cool, the table slides out from where the drawers would be, and has boards that you use to extend it to make it larger. The chairs are actually quite large and fold up to about a 2×2 square. The whole cabinet is probably 4 1/2 feet long and about 3 feet high. Not very big, but a great piece of furniture for a small game room. I want one! Any help would be great, I want to search ebay or something to find one, but, gotta know what to look for. Thanks!

I tried a bar of soap and it didn’t help…it’s a good piece of furniture but all of a sudden one drawer started sticking..any suggestions??
