Tarzan of the maps
I have a desperate need to play Tarzan on those lamps.
Sinecure
Looks like a peaceful place to work.
The Light
So much natural light! Windows that might even open! I wish more workplaces today were that bright. Sure, you'd get some glare on computer screens, but it'd be worth it to not feel like you're trapped in a tomb.

Not one person is playing computer solitaire, looking for a partner, forwarding jokes to friends, looking at porn or ordering stuff online. Can people today imagine that drudgery?
