Well, if we are going to start dreaming, how about a port hole in the door?

You know, so that when the spouse starts droning on about whatever he/she
drones on about, you can retreat to that "place of happiness" that is fully
stocked with a kick butt PC, iSeries, HDTV, Tivo, pool table, etc...then
every now and then peek out and decide if the drone is still going on.  If
it is, close the port hole and continue...if the coast is clear, you can
then open the door smiling and say "Yes Dear"!

Warning: If you have a port hole, you MUST also have a "instant recall loop
recording device".  This is so that at any time you can instantly repeat the
last 20 seconds of drone speak.  Very useful for the dreaded "You're not
listening to me" proclamation. Hit the remote control button and you
instantly prove that you were listening!  Since we are all geeks here, the
button could probably be rigged to activate based on speech recognition!
