Well, that explains the bleating sound I heard last night. I didn't want to say anything to the management, I thought it was maybe just exceptionally creaky doors.

Hmm... I really need to be adding some more rooms to the mansion again sometime soon... it's starting to seem less like a mansion and more like just an oversized house...
An oversized house filled with horny grad students, surly cats, and anthropormic sharks.

Your very own Fortress of Solitude. Though if you want some noise and liveliness, might I suggest a room full of the latest hit songs and movies and state-of-the-art audio and video equipment? Unless you have one already, of course, and I just missed it among all these rooms I haven't explored yet.

Well, there's the home theatre a couple of pages back...
The media room, with the large-screen plasma TV, surround-sound system, and every single videogame system every made, is around here somewhere...

And I'm not horny all the time! I'm just always "up" for anything! I'll try to take it easy in the mansion, since I live here full time now
Just don't go near my desk in the security office, I've tried to clean it a few times, but still...

Darn! Now that Cobie TOLD us NOT to go near his desk, my inability to follow rules is making me go, even though it's probably a diabolical trap and none of you will ever hear from me again.
This room is awash in the sun-drenched blue and white of the Aegean islands.
A panoramic mural wraps around all four walls, depicting a stylized long day's journey into night, as Apollo's flaming chariot arcs over the horizon to be followed by the sweeping, darkening robes of Morpheus, god of dreams.
Set into the deep azure ceiling are thousands of diamonds seemingly set in a random scattering. Upon looking a bit more closely, the larger-than-life shapes of the heroes, deities, and monsters of Greek mythology unveil themselves as glittering constellations -- Orion, Leviathan, Perseus, Hydra, Taurus, and numberless others.
A four-poster bed is situated in the center of the room, offering a perfect vantage point to ponder the night sky above. The posters are carved in the shapes of the four muses of poetry and song: Calliope, Euterpe, Erato, and Polyhymnia. The other five muses -- Clio, Thalmia, Melpomene, Terpsichore, and Urania -- are depicted in bas-relief upon the headboard.
Sitting on a rustic pine nightstand is a platter of golden, honey-drenched baklava. Nearby are pitchers of nectar and ambrosia, decorated with images of Demeter, goddess of the harvest, and her daughter Persephone.

(saunters in, forgetting to wipe feet on the carpet)
(Flies up to the ceiling, ooahs and aahs at the diamonds, and begins systematically picking them out one by one, dreaming of the things he can buy with them)
(Sits down on the headboard while devouring the baklavas. Unfortunately, weight is too much: the headboard collapses and the baklavas fly towarsd the nearest wall)
(Suddenly, my little cousins, all five of tem, rush in and begin doodling on the walls with their nice little crayons. The two oldest ones begin climbing on the bedposts.)
(STU quickly rushes in, grabs us all by the neck and throws us out of his mansion. The alarm system is later reconfigured to shoot anyone with my specific body type on sight.)
Don't worry, STU, I'm not going to do anything to your beautiful new room, except drool over it completely.
