Or maybe I should say Archie Bunker...

For those outside the US or Canada unfamiliar with classic American TV,
Archie Bunker is a sort of iconic character from a show called "All In
The Family" (based on the UK's "Til Death Do Us Part") which in this
country was a groundbreaker in dealing with racial, economic and
generational issues. Archie was a loudmouthed, unschooled middle-class
worker with conservative values and ethnic prejudices, ironically played
by a liberal, intelligent and openhearted fellow, the late Carroll
O'Connor. One of Archie's trademarks was "HIS chair," which was
sacrosanct and even his own beloved daughter was not allowed to park her
little tuchus therein.

Stosh is becoming Archie.

We have this nice, comfortable office chair which was given us by a
friend, and we were planning on bringing up to the computer. And then
Stosh decided it was HIS. He'll throw a tantrum of anyone else in the
house, cat or not, sits in it. He'll break into a running fit and knock
stuff over, muttering vulgarities. Last time I tried to park it, I got a
nip in the ankle to let me know my place. I could hear him saying
impatiently, "Geddoutta my CHAIR!!!" in that drawn-out, Noo Yawk accent
so delightfully portrayed by the late Carroll. Boxing matches have taken
place over possession of The Chair in the past few weeks, with Stosh the
clear winner.

My husband is scared witless of taking it upstairs.

Blessed be,
Baha
