I don't know about you, but the Ikea in Renton (that is the closest to my house) is a real pain in the ass. You are supposed to walk one way and if what you want is at the end, you can fight your way thru a giant, thick crowd. Is this just me, or is shopping at Ikea a pain in the ass?THE VOICE OF REASON HAS SPOKEN!
Pop quiz: Which US president said, "Saddam Hussein has spent the better part of this decade, and much of his nation's wealth, not on providing for the Iraqi people, but on developing nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and the missiles to deliver them."
George W. Bush is not correct. It was Bill Clinton in his 1998 State of the Union speech. HMMMMMMMMM.

One person was actually stabbed
At 00.42am on Thursday 10th February 2005, the new IKEA Edmonton store outside London in the United Kingdom closed after several people were tragically injured during the midnight opening event.
The ongoing celebrations were cancelled, and the store will remain closed until further notice.
The incident occurred as an unforeseen number of customers joined the midnight opening event and turmoil erupted outside the IKEA store. Crowd control precautions were in place according to plans but proved insufficient as some 5.000 to 6.000 people had arrived for the event.
At the official time for the opening, 00.01am, a crowd outside of the controlled queue surged forward, causing a crush at the entrance to the store. The police have confirmed a number of injuries, but no further details are available at this time. Police is also investigating a separate incident near IKEA’s premises, in which a man was stabbed.
The safety of customers and co-workers is of the highest priority for IKEA, and IKEA would like to express its concern and deep regret to what has happened.
