Besides the actual work stuff - computer, phone, Machinery's Handbook, big planning calendar, and photos of ... oh, yeah, the wife and kids - I have a Classic Motorsports calendar (GRM calendar is at home.) and these:

Doc and a V8 Vega standing guard over Doc's Piston Cup and my OA mug. Photobucket

Motivational stuff.

And with this post, I am officially a half-dork! Of course, many pronounced me a dork long ago ...

Desk? What desk?

At work it's not really a desk:

At home, you can't see it any way. (I haven't cleaned it in a while):

I'll let y'all figure out what all that crap is...

My desk is a complete mess. Checkbooks, a speaker, contact solution, calculator, crackers, lamp, textbooks, notes, dirty plates, mouthwash... But my favorite piece is a Porsche piggy bank that was painted by my girlfriend.

No desk at work. I'm an operator, not a paper-pusher.

SWMBO just gave me a desk at home, she didn't have room for it in her room (different work/school hours, separate b'rooms. Works for us, we're both finally getting some sleep).

Had it a week, already have a 20yr old Emerson 16" TV, the old PS2, a disassembled Tamiya 1/12th scale Matra MS11 that I'm converting to Sir Jackie's `68 MS10 (Matra V12 out, Cosworth V8 in), a stack of PS2 games (including GT4 and Tourist Trophy), my DVD copy of "Le Mans", the renewal notices for my licence plates, and an International Auto Parts (Alfa/Fiat/Lancia) catalog.

I've got the Hot Wheels TR-6. And the Datsun 510, but only the black one. I saw the gold one in the same bin, but I've never seen one of the blue ones!
