let's lighten the mood. Stuff in reach and maybe in use...
1- Crackers-
This is not my prefered brand but I pulled this particular package out of my bag. Suprisingly not totally smushed. I keep these as snack for the hour ride, each way, to and from work. Often they end up being breakfast, luch or whatever. And it's almost healthy.
2-Silica Gel-This came with one of the hard drives and I haven't tossed it yet. I have always wanted to eat one of these just because they always say not to, though it is
apparently safe.
3-Floppy-Something I did for a coworker. Pictures that were printing bigger than the page. 21x21 at 100dpi but all three still managed to fit on a
floppy.
4-Disposable Lighter-This comes from my favorite gas station in
Rolla, MO. If you look real close you can see it says Delano. If you go there, you can walk in my footsteps. Picked this up on the drive back to PA from OK on my last trip out.
5-Lottery Tickets-I paid $5 for five
Fast 5's tickets and won five bookmarks. I know there are only 2 - 3 are missing from the picture. Accept yourself. These go into the filling cabinet until I get around to working on that project. It's actually about halfway finished just have to write a disclaimer and buy a laminator. Yes I really need to buy one.
6-Refillable Lighter-I paid $5
for this and it damn cool. The sound it makes when lit goes with the the whole dragon thing. I have played with it more than I have actually used it. The igniting is not consistant though. You expect quality for that price? Cool is enough of a challange.
7-TDK Marker-This little pen was one of the freebies that came with the
newest cd-rw. We have killed two so far so you know this stays handy...but not as handy as the ever present
Sharpies. Hopefully the burner will outlast the pen, but I highly doubt it.
8-Cigarettes-Remember kids smoking is bad. But I really enjoy it and this is
my brand. I will however admit thiat in the current situation I am smoking way more than I should. I give them up when you give up
fellatio. I actually worded that nice. How quaint.
9-Case Screws-A quiz: How long do the case screws have to remain out while installing and heat checking a system during and after installing two
120 gb hard drives, four new operating sysytems (XP, FreeDos, Os2, RedHat) and to external USB components? if you said one month you are corrrect.
10-Kazoo-Noise! Noise! Noise! the one
musical instrument I can actually play and I have way too may of these little plastic party favor ones. I am still trying to find a good metal one. I actually already own one but I think it's is storage in OKC. Crap.
11-CD-The special release of the
Dixie Chicks album 'Home" that comes with the DVD of their videos. It is actually a really nice package. It is also really fitting that I bought it at Wally World. What else do you expect from someone who grew up in OK? Or from someone with very wide musical tastes. Wider that you can probably imagine.
12-Device-The
Lexmark all
its a wonder the thing even woks in one. It's not there but I am sure you can see it's defects.
...and that my friends probably tells more about me than a lot of people close to me ever knew. You can
go here if you would like to see a higher quality version of this image. Save it, it might be worth something one day. LMFAO. But it was fun and I may do it again some day. Maybe the desktops will be next. Who knows.
