Well you would have to know how we grew up.  We were next door neighbors, our Mom's were best friends.  He was a year younger than me.  He was a perverted child who constantly would try to play "postman" or "doctor" with me.  Once he even drew "down there" on me with a magic marker.  Every time my Mom would see him (since we were teens) she would throw a magic marker at him, it is now a joke.  I don't want to give you the wrong impression of him, we were literally best friends growing up.  He got punched in the throat by another boy because of me once when we were younger.  He stole a big wheel for me once and wrote my name all over it and gave it to me as a present.  I had to return it to the poor kid who he had taken it from after we scrubbed it.  He hadn't seen me in years.  Perhaps he was expecting something a little different than what he saw.  Oh to make matters worse, when he was saying this to me my husband was sitting about 5 feet from me. 

In his defense, you DO look really good!  :bow:  :-)

Id have to see photos to make a judgment on whether or not you are being unreasonable.  You maybe making a BMX Mountain Bike game out of a Whack-a-Molehill.

im really not.. i'll send you a pm with a link to what it looks like. its big. just like at an arcade, the full size.

three guys can easily stand around it and play.. maybe four if one of them is taller.  :popcorn:

the room would be so much nicer without the game, but its a fun thing for the boys (young and old) and i certainly dont want to take it away. ive never even threatened to do that.

i'm just trying to get a compromise...

I want to see....send it to me.

Edit:  Ok I just found it.  Your house is beautiful (as I've told you before).  As a casual observer I would say that it doesn't look that bad but if I lived in the house it would be out of the room.  It would drive me nuts as the kitchen/family room are the rooms you see the most.  I can't believe you are even offering to just "cover it" as I know how strong willed you are.   :p    I would demand it have its own room.

Sure, that's easy when you are married to the most perfect man in the world.  :whatever:

I didn't mean actually build a room.  Find the room that is least used and seen and stick it in there.  My childhood friend (you met him - Brent) was talking about his Man Room after the funeral at my uncles house.  He was talking about how he loved to go to that room and watch ESPN all by himself.  I said Kevin's Man Room has a 14' sewing machine in it and if I were married to him he too would have my $hit in his Man Room.   :p

P.S.  I think Brent has the hots for me, he kept saying, "You look really really good."  "No, I'm serious....really good."

I actually didn't have the pleasure of meeting Brent the Scoundrel, but I did notice he was looking at you with a little bit more than mild interest.  :-)

I will do my best to keep you warm from the chill winds of BEG.   :uhsure:

I gave you a H5 just to start things up.

He was hitting on you at your brothers funeral? :o

Well you would have to know how we grew up.  We were next door neighbors, our Mom's were best friends.  He was a year younger than me.  He was a perverted child who constantly would try to play "postman" or "doctor" with me.  Once he even drew "down there" on me with a magic marker.  Every time my Mom would see him (since we were teens) she would throw a magic marker at him, it is now a joke.  I don't want to give you the wrong impression of him, we were literally best friends growing up.  He got punched in the throat by another boy because of me once when we were younger.  He stole a big wheel for me once and wrote my name all over it and gave it to me as a present.  I had to return it to the poor kid who he had taken it from after we scrubbed it.  He hadn't seen me in years.  Perhaps he was expecting something a little different than what he saw.  Oh to make matters worse, when he was saying this to me my husband was sitting about 5 feet from me. 
Yeah! If I were your husband I think I may have taken him aside and explained how inappropriate that behaviour was considering where you were at the time and that you are married!...But then again I'm kind of a dick that way! :-)
