"Mobile Tree Home"

'I know the bad economy has brought us together as a family, but I wish our kids and grandkids could afford their own place.'

"Don't tell me... you hired a professional decorator!"

"We made all the wheels out of old coffee tables and chandeliers."

'We'll take it!'

'You had to put a skylight in didn't you?'

'OK, the worn out carpeting proves I snack too much. Only one thing to do. Tomorrow I get prices on hardwood floors.'

'Ever thought of having the place re-carpeted?'

'More homes and wind turbines planned.'

'... And that's where I'm seeking planning permission to build a secret uranium enrichment plant...'

A Bedroom In The Middle Of Being Redecorated.

"Sir, there are no waitresses or menus — this is Crate & Barrel."

'A great location and only one step from the beach.'

Realty. Remember

"Wow . . . We could really fill this room with uncomfortable silences."

"See, that's your problem right there - the roof is mostly sugar."

'The contractor didn't do windows.'

The architecture was inspired by watching 'Grand Designs' on TV

House for sale, appliances included (in the yard).

Open-Plan Psychiatry

"To be honest, we were thinking of something like a Cape Cod."

"I told you that TV would be too big for this room."

"Be honest...did you actually get any paint on the living room walls?"

"Just imagine this room fully carpeted with multi-level platforms and cubbies."

New Eco Towns - 'The architects thought we said 'ego'.'

It's nice, but we were hoping for something unfurnished.

'One good thing about this place is that I can honestly say I own everything as far as the eye can see.'

"The current owners removed a number of walls and used soft, neutral tones to create a very spacious, open concept."

"They're willing to throw in their kidneys."

"It's just a lot yellower than we expected."

'I'm sorry, but without a significant deposit, we can't give you a mortgage.'

"This is a great little vase! and now it makes me thing we should redo the living room."

"Yes, I did say I wanted a TV mounted on the wall. But, I was referring to a new, light flat screen."

Another over-do-it-yourself project.

"That's way out of my price range..."
