When they eventually wanted to throw it out, I asked if I could have it and they let me. It was old and extremely ugly. But I loved it. I had carved Bon Jovi into one of the arms.<br /><br />I placed it in the lounge room of my new place. I was living with two blokes who always had friends over. Most, if not all, of them were Cold Chisel fans. Whenever they sat in the chair, they would cross out the Bon Jovi and carve Cold Chisel into the other arm. When I sat on the chair, I would cross out the Cold Chisel and go over the Bon Jovi again.<br /><br />I was fighting a losing battle. There were about 10 Cold Chisel fans and I was the only Bon Jovi fan. Besides which, eventually the Bon Jovi arm fell off.<br /><br />I still have that chair. Only now it's out the back and the only one who ever sits on it is my dog.<br /><br />None of this has anything to do with my post or your comment. I just saw Cold Chisel and Bon Jovi together and it made me think of that chair.<br /><br />However, maybe there's a message there about how even old, ugly chairs can be loved by somebody. But you should never hand them over to men with knives. <br /><br />LizAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03059054907843482358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833547834321864748.post-70287848621365581782010-06-08T14:47:47.904+10:002010-06-08T14:47:47.904+10:00Dear Liz,

(I don't think Bon Jovi ever covered it. They should have). <br /><br />I hear what you're saying. As Bishop Williamson always said, "The VILE! media."<br /><br />David ...Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03147136231746103831noreply@blogger.com
