Dusty Chalk Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 I am in the market for a new bed within the next month or so. Currently have a twin size (thus the reason for changing) select comfort, not sure what I want to replace it with yet. Thinking something like Tempur-pedic, but I really need to go try some things.I am pretty happy with my cheap little Ikea foam mattress -- it 'inflates', like Duggeh said his did. I don't like this memory-foam shit, but only because I would never get out of bed ever again -- way too enticing and comfortable. I also really like -- for sleeping -- a firm mattress -- the most comfortable I ever slept was one of those exercise mats over a concrete floor -- just enough cushion to prevent the contact points from getting sore, but no more. If this sounds appealing, then I can look up which one it is, but really you should just go to Ikea and try them out, they have a wide variety of mattresses there, and a nice little lookup table to immediately tell you if it's something you'll like or not.
Voltron Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Big fecking grin! Lucky! Seriously nice haul Jim. I was scoping out the Antique Collection a bit today and have a line on the Weller but nothing else locally so far. I am on a couple of lists though so I hope to have some options.

Wmcmanus Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Plane ticket to Dallas for Christmas. I get to be around little kid joy for the holidays Yeah! I get to be around thousands of them! Nothing like it. Not even The Beatles were as popular with little kids as I am during December.
justin Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Mine is a Sam's Club clone. 5 years and still as comfy as day one, and no divets developing, like with a spring mattress. Paid $500, so I feel pretty good about it. That new TP Cloud sure looks interesting though. Might need to go test it out. Nice ride Larry! do the foam mattresses feel warm? i like cold
jvlgato Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 Damn, nice job, Jim! Also, congrats, HPA!
swt61 Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 do the foam mattresses feel warm? i like cold No, at least no warmer than a regular mattress. I like it cold when I sleep too, and find no such issue with mine.

I just looked and NH just got their stock of the 18yr Sazerac in, which is one of my all time favorites. I'll be headed to at least one store tomorrow to grab multiple bottles @ $55.99.

n_maher Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 As A scientist I am required to determine that for myself. This strikes me as a project that I would be interested in as well.
cetoole Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 I completely and utterly approve of these purchases and... I want that Stagg!!!! Fax on? They did have several more bottles. Actually, they had the whole antique collection at $65 each, way better than the places I saw in the city ($85-110).

What about carrier pidgeon?

shellylh Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 Thanks Mike, I have a lot of booze right now so I'll just wait and see if I can find some locally. I wouldn't mind if someone brought some to a certain event though.
