Assembly

As 60 pieces of wood and 200 nails, bolts, screws, holders, and knobs were assembled last night to make this Ikea beauty, I wondered 2 things:
1) How many relationships have disintegrated after arguments stemming from interpreting the 25 page assembly manual?
2) Since it's founding in 1943, how many times has Ikea's name been taken in vain, and in how many languages?

At least a dozen times around our house! Ikea products are bitter-sweet that way. =) Miss you, girl! Kristin (aka sis-in-law)
