i have a huge desk, fits a WHOLE PC down , a whole monitor, a whole printer, and everything else i have on my desk and i still have more room to fit more tongue

jamesbondsv · 2003-08-09 10:10 pm

(going from right to left):
Vanceril.

That is the funniest name for meds because my last name is Vance.

Well, what's on desk 1:

A generic 17" CRT
A generic custom built Windows XP tower
A generic keyboard
A Logitech MouseMan Optical Trackball
A CompactFlash card reader
A Pioneer DVD player
A Symphonic 9" TV/VCR
A set of Logitech Z340 speakers
A pencil holder
A stack of papers
A checkbook
An imitation OfficeMax brand Post-It note pad

Desk 2:
A Canon LiDE 30 scanner
An EPSON Stylus Color 777i
A few CD-R stacks
A bunch of burned CDs
A broken, dismantled IBM hard drive that really pissed me off because my term paper was on it when it crashed
A broken HP digital camera
A stack of photographs of myself
A CD binder
A RadioShack PC repair kit
A graduation card
A stack of Hi-8 tapes
A fluorescent flashlight

Desk 3:
An Indigo iBook
A FireWire hard drive
A small stack of burned audio CDs
A small stack of drawers designed to fit on a desk
A Nokia 6340i cell phone
An original 5GB iPod
A box of checks
A pencil holder

I will be adding a Desk 4 to my room later on. Desk 1 is actually a folding table. Desk 2 is a drafting table that is set to have the top positioned parallel to the floor and not at an angle. Desk 3 is a regular hard wood student desk with two drawers. Desk 4 is a particle board student desk with no drawers but two shelves underneath the desk top.

Desk 4 will contain a 5300 Mac with original monitor, keyboard, and mouse. (I'm actually unsure of it's model number, although I am pretty sure it is a 5000 series special edition one. It's in the basement right now so I'm not going to double check this.)

....MST3K: Manos, Hands of Fate (worst movie ever created by mankind)
and yet, one of the funniest....

I thought MST did a pretty good job making it funny, but they missed some really obvious and hilarious comments. Luckily my friend was willing to say what comedy central thought was too racy for primetime cable. big_smile

She has the coolest sense of humor.

But yeah, that movie, without the MST3K treatment, is abominably bad, nay--legendarily bad. lol
