By popular request, I've added a subroom in Chat, called 'The Lounge'. This is just an area for general chat discussions.
Why? Well, most people have been using the Lobby for general chat, which is fine. The lobby is where people first land when they hit Chat. Chatting in the lobby can be difficult, though, if there are many people who land in the lobby and then immediately leave as they jump to another room (the Book Club room, for example).
So the Lounge is an area where general chat can take place without the entering/exiting of people in the lobby as they're on their way to other chat rooms.

At first Ford had formed a theory to account for this strange behavior. If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up.
After a few months' consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working.

No, no, no, a smoking jacket!
Thanks, Harvey! Book Klub members interrupted a lot of conversations Wednesday night on the way to Book Klub!

I am just happy the book club had such a good turn out. Everyone said Robin did a really good job. Passing out sticks and torches to the people passing through the lobby must have motivated her. |

Harv thank you again for the new room. It makes it easy to have a conversation and not have to stop for someone just passing through to another room. Now do you care if we put in some nice high back chairs and maybe a widow box of flowers in that nice big picture window? You did good.

I have found rugs on floors to be very dangerous. One slid out from under me once and I took a nasty spill. Only my cat like reflexes saved me from a more serious injury.

Vampy, you're too funny.
Don't forget tables to hold all those lovely muffins the Book Klubs have been whipping up.

Funny maybe but it did happen and I missed a week of work. I had just got the job and they thought I quit. I almost lost it but a doctor's note saved me.
I now hate rugs.

I can remember as a kid that we had some round rag type throw rugs that a relative had made. . . .I think they're called 'throw' rugs because when you step on them they throw you. We had a linoleum floor in the basement and that's where these rugs were. The fun thing for us kids was to get a bit of a running start and jump on the rug and see how far it would slide with us on it. Oddly, enough, we all survived. As I recall some of the rugs didn't.

I don't know why they are called "Throw rugs", but that's what it did to me. "Judo rug" may be an acceptable name as well.
