My giraffe chair headphone stand is going with me to the October meet and the National meet. Your headphone stands could get you arrested in some states.

The way I see it, better the headphone stand be a toy then the headphone.

My comment was regarding boomana's XXX headphone stands.

Sorry to disappoint. My stands are works of art. Nothing XXX about them. Though maybe I'll commission some more risque ones to bring to the meet, if only to see how people react. You can tell a lot about people that way.

Does it have a bathroom and a water fountain with a little step in front of it?

Wait. Mike might be onto something here. If he's giving us our own playroom, within bounds of reason and legal decorum, what would we want in it?

I think other room options that have been explored, but not yet confirmed as anything other than drunken ramblimgs are:

The K1000 room
The ghetto room (nothing over $150)
The high-end room
The portable room

...and now the playroom. Gene and Aaron, the Meet Meister has spoken. We have our own room with optional babysitters. Do you want to play? I'm quite serious.

That is far from what I had in mind.

EDIT: I just remembered who I'm dealing with here, and have, therefore, decided to back away from this idea entirely. You guys will surely do damage with it.
