And so a month after they built the fifth Wal-Mart in our county, a little coffee shop opened just a few yards away.  

My coworker Rick said it looked like a giant amoeba just waiting to absorb any surrounding properties.

“The coffee shop?” I asked.

“No, Wal-Mart is the amoeba.”

“Oh.”

When I got back to my desk, I typed ‘amoeba’ into Google and realized that I had incorrectly pictured a centipede.

“To hell with Rick,” I thought. “I don’t need any more friends, anyway. I’m on friend overload.”

At dinner that night, the Wal-Mart came up again when my wife Diane mentioned how ugly it was to see another gigantic shopping center taking up space in our town.

“It looks like a giant amoeba just waiting to absorb that little coffee shop,” I said. “And then the coffee shop is like a centipede.”

“I don’t think amoebas eat centipedes. And besides, that’s the point.”

Diane went on to explain that the coffee shop, though legitimate and functioning by all measures, was really an art piece constructed by a group of private donors in response to the new Wal-Mart.

“The idea is that we’re intentionally not supposed to go to the coffee shop. That way, Wal-Mart customers will be forced to observe the gradual decay of a local business every time they enter the store.”

“Well, I’ve been going there all week,” I said. “I think the coffee is top-notch stuff. Plus, it’s on my way to work.”

“The coffee is supposed to be mediocre,” said Diane. “Keeping within the budget of most struggling businesses. It’s supposed to be virtually undrinkable.”

“Hmm…well I really like it.”

“Well, you can’t keep going or else you’ll ruin the project.”

“This is America,” I said. “And if I want a cup of mediocre, overpriced coffee, by god I will have it!”

Over the next several months, I kept drinking the coffee. Some days I even went twice. The quality of the coffee, I was told, gradually worsened as a result of my unwavering interest, but I never noticed and so I had no choice but to doubt the rumors.

My doubt remained intact even after overhearing a private conversation between the coffee shop’s manager and the cashier. I was standing by a tree and watching a teenager back his car into another car and I guess they didn’t see me.

“I know,” said the cashier. “I’ve tried that, but it’s like he doesn’t have taste buds.”

“Well, he’s single-handedly fucking up this entire thing.”

“So what then, poison? Would he even drink poison?”

“Now, that’s an interesting idea.”

“Stupid teenage drivers,” I thought.

In the end, they poisoned the coffee. I made it a month after that, but my failing eyesight and ravaged kidneys eventually left me bed-ridden.

“Well, they just opened another location,” said Diane. “Business is booming. I hope you’re happy.”

And I wasn’t happy, but I was somehow content and I thought about everything then: Wal-Mart, art projects, even little amoebas crawling through the forest, one-hundred legs working beautifully in tandem.

“Nobody ever wins in these kinds of things,” said Diane.

“But if you had to pick a winner, you’d probably pick me because the coffee shop was on my way to work.”

Diane sighed and left the room. I dozed off and in my dream, they did pick a winner. They picked me and I was led over to a small stage to choose my prize: A brand new recliner or two new kidneys!

“The recliner,” I inquired. “How far back are we talking?”

Do you have a recliner? They are such needy pieces of furniture. You sit down and kickback in the recliner at it doesn't want to let you leave. When you want to get up to do some work, it whispers in your ear, "don't worry, you can do that tomorrow." It is almost a hostage situation. The chair will hold you there in a state of suspended animation, where time seems to stand still and your thoughts drift into a realm of contemplation and calm. That is until a hero comes along to wake you from the stasis. In my case that hero is usually Charlie, who will expend great energy to shake me into action and ensure that I arise and open the door.

Dear Gus & Magnus,

We went shopping for a new dining room table set today, but didn't find anything we liked, despite hitting two furniture stores and three flea market/antique stores. But I did get a new pair of shoes and we had a lunch that made everyone happy at Fantastic China.

Just before dinner, though, Gus felt like he was going to throw up. He ended up skipping dinner to go to bed, but in reality he just went to bed and read for a long time -- he's a reading machine. And he eventually came down to get an apple.

Mom and I took our shopping adventure to the Internet, but still couldn't find exactly what we're looking for.

Dad.

Electric or Manual Recliner? A Guide to Choosing the Perfect Armchairs for Your Home

Finding the right armchair can elevate the comfort and style of any room. Whether you’re creating a cosy corner in your living room or a statement piece in a reading nook, there’s an ideal option for everyone. From classic leather armchairs to soft, inviting fabric armchairs, each offers its own charm and functionality to suit your lifestyle.

A leather armchair is a timeless choice for those who appreciate durability and elegance. Its sleek, polished appearance works beautifully in both traditional and modern interiors. Leather not only ages gracefully but also becomes softer over time, making it even more comfortable with use. However, if you prefer something softer and warmer, fabric armchairs are a fantastic alternative. They offer a wide variety of textures, patterns, and colours, allowing you to match them effortlessly to your décor.

For ultimate relaxation, electric recliner armchairs have become increasingly popular in UK homes. With just the push of a button, you can adjust the position to your liking, making them perfect for lounging after a long day. These chairs are particularly useful for individuals with mobility concerns, as the motorised reclining system provides effortless adjustment. If you prefer a simpler option, a manual recliner armchair offers similar comfort without the need for electricity. With a gentle push, you can recline the backrest and kick up the footrest for a well-deserved rest.

When deciding between an electric recliner and a manual recliner, consider your needs and preferences. Electric options offer convenience and precise adjustment, but manual recliners often come at a more budget-friendly price while still providing exceptional comfort. Both types are great investments for anyone looking to add versatility to their seating arrangements.

Ultimately, your choice of armchair depends on your personal style and practical requirements. Whether it’s a luxurious leather armchair, a cosy fabric armchair, or a functional recliner, selecting the right chair can transform your space into a haven of relaxation. Take time to explore your options and find the perfect piece that reflects both your comfort and aesthetic needs.
