How many lbs. will sit at your holiday table?

At 6'1" and about 180, I'm the lightweight. I'm thinking the other 7 will tip the scales at somewhere around 2000 lbs (including me). And, they will most likely shovel in around 2000 calories. I'll get a few, but I'm a vegetarian, so the gravy boat doesn't get passed to me.

Me, my wife and three cats. Probably about 300 lb. total.

Nothin' special - just a nice relaxing day. Maybe some homemade pizzas or something. Mmmm.

Heck, just pour some beer on the cats, wrap them in foil and toss them under the hood for the drive. Should be done in 200 miles....

It's not how many pounds, it's what the pounds look like...

In your case maybe....

Me, I'm worried about the beams under the dining room floor.
