      Skyline 33

      July 25th, 2007 by mike d. in skyline, Features

      Wow it’s been awhile since we did one of these. Congratulations go out to Liz and Patrick for successfully guessing the last skyline and satellite image. The skyline was Providence, the satellite image was Hong Kong.

      And now… This week’s challenge!

      Skyline!

      Satellite!

      Good luck.

      I need more skylines, so if you have any pictures… send ‘em in!

      Desks.

      July 25th, 2007 by mike d. in A Day In The Life...

      currently eating: pork

      Ruth: mike D, do you have a clean desk or messy desk
      i guess clean
      Mike D.: you guessed… poorly.
      Ruth: haha! guess me!
      Mike D:
      You’re desk is small. It’s metal… with worn corners from frequent impacts with book carts.

      there’s a pencil holder and a place for paperclips
      sometimes, when it’s too warm you take your shoes off under the desk
      the front is solid… so the desk keeps your secret well

      there are papers strewn about, but not haphazardly.
      someone placed them there with intent.
      the items though, those are a bit more random
      the ruler always seems to be in a different spot

      there’s a small circular stain on the left from where a cup was placed
      but it’s been there since you arrived and is more part of the desk than anything else
      thin strips of white out splatter are on the right side
      the computer monitor is not at all a flat screen
      it’s that computer tan color. there’s dust on top, but you don’t notice it really.

      there are three piles of books
      you tried to stack them according to size.. with the largest at the bottom.
      but recently you had an extra book that needed to be put down and didn’t feel like putting it in the middle
      so the pile on the right looks off balance

      you have a rolodex but you have no idea who all the people are inside it
      there’s no desk lamp. you rely more on the overhead lights from the library
      it’s quiet here….
      too quiet. sometimes you tap your foot against he metal frame of the desk.
      you’re doing that right now.
      DONE!

      how’d I do?

      Ruth: it’s not very accurate, but amusing
      me: ha ha ha
      did I get anything right?
      Ruth: I do have three stacks of books
      me: YES!

      Leave your name and your job title in the comments. I will make a prediction as to what your desk looks like.
