So I ended up at the Arab’s place on Saturday. I wanted to check out a real bachelor pad. The liquor cabinet was stocked. The music was queued up. The only thing missing was a remote that controlled everything (including the blinds).

We discussed the placement of pillows and blankets in the living room. He explained the contents of the coffee table (magazine choices). The candles, the chess set, everything had a purpose. He showed me where he condoms were stashed (not where I would expect, I keep mine in the remote holder).

We toured the bookcase. Although he slipped up in the display. “The Game” was parked next to a brightly jacketed book. This lead my eye straight to it. I showed the Arab how to hide his guidebooks in plain site.

I didn’t make it to the bedroom. Stay tuned…
