    I'm not sure how this company stays in business. I would think there are appealing to a limited market, but possibly there are enough clubs here in Houston to keep them afloat.

    Wait, the link doesn't seem to be working. Let me try this again. Okay, I think I did it right that time.

    What's really odd is that most of their furniture doesn't really look all that different, design-wise, than any other furniture. Really just the upholstering seems a little gaudier.

    Its a matter of solid construction....a frame durable enough to endure one seated individual plus an additional 95-120 lbs of someone bouncing / bobbing / grinding around on them...plus wheels that allow movement of the chair but not excessive movement that could lead to an embarassing accident....plus stain-free, cigarette burn-resistant fabric that can withstand a stilletto heel.

    I dont think Glow In The Dark would be a good idea...would certain stains show up? Eeeeeesh.....




    Cagey, sorry about Sunday....couldnt watch the Texas game cause my MS150 training ride turned out to be 60 freaking miles, didnt get home until 5:30. Listened to it on the radio under my helmet. Texas covered the spread...nice.

    I believe that spunk-proof is the proper term for this feature in industry jargon.

    That's cool Mateo, I got kind of sidetracked myself. See ya.
