In other words I rented a room in a boarding house set up by the college for it&#8217;s students.  Man that was a party house.  But I digress.<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t go into the details of how I ended up having a beautiful Persian carpet since it&#8217;s a long story, but I did, and it was one of the only real design features of my room while I lived in the boarding house.  Later when I moved in with my girlfriend, who soon became my wife, the carpet came with me.<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>Unfortunately the carpet went through a lot of wear and tear over the years &#8211; mostly in that old boarding house I lived in, and when my wife and I moved to the house we now own we got rid of the carpet.<\/p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;m looking at the handmade Tibetan and Armenian carpets at Tufenkian.  I see that there is a Los Angeles, New York City and Scottsdale Arizona Carpet Sales.  It&#8217;s Tufenkian&#8217;s semi-annual rug sale.<\/p>\n<p>The quality of their hand made carpets is superb, and I&#8217;m seriously considering ordering a new rug online.  I really miss our old carpet and my wife liked it too.   I also found out that if we register online at the site we can get an additional 10% off.  That sounds like a pretty good deal &#8211; a sale and a discount on top of that just for registering.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>Hmmm I think I&#8217;d better start to seriously look at these carpet designs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c354d1e329b235f1862b41000f5a4d18\" data-index=\"9\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br\/>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-3375789278566919\";\r\n\/* Guitar_inpost_300x250 *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"3631424768\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<?php if ( is_search() || is_single() || is_page() || is_paged() || is_category() || is_archive() ) { ?>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\nch_client = \"dragonden\";\r\nch_type = \"mpu\";\r\nch_width = 468;\r\nch_height = 120;\r\nch_color_bg = \"FFFFFF\";\r\nch_color_title = \"7dc246\";\r\nch_color_text = \"333333\";\r\nch_non_contextual = 4;\r\nch_vertical =\"premium\";\r\nch_sid = \"guitarlicks_betweenposts2\";\r\nvar ch_queries = new Array( );\r\nvar ch_selected=Math.floor((Math.random()*ch_queries.length));\r\nif ( ch_selected < ch_queries.length ) {\r\nch_query = ch_queries[ch_selected];\r\n}\r\n\/\/--><\/script>\r\n<script  src=\"http:\/\/scripts.chitika.net\/eminimalls\/amm.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<?php } ?>\r\n<br\/>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first moved to Toronto from my hometown of Brantford it was to go to college in order to become a jeweler.
