Kevin's Watch

I kind of change with the seasons so I replace my desktop every 5 months or so...here's my new one

It's near Lynchburg VA...but pretty trippy (eh Pam?) if you ask me.

That's a beautiful shot, danlo!

Starkin's most excellent Naomi Watts-as-Linden Avery wallpaper is on my desktop.

oddly enough, as a placeholder...

Awesome dAN!! (even if I've never seen the show, I stopped watching space shows after Andromeda and parts of BSG)

F---!

I just changed my background to my last bank statement!

(where is this NW/LA thing MM?)

As far as my desktop goes, the laptop is still giving me the occasional unexpected stand-bye or dim screen problem, so I still have my settings where Syl suggested I set them, and currently have no theme at all.

*sigh*

Same as it ever was : no background, black, no shortcuts that aren't vital to everyday use. I'm a desktop minimalist (yes, I run XP in classic mode and disable all the animations and stuff).

An anemone (try saying that quickly ten times!)

Sea: There's a cartoon in the newspapers here called "Pearls Before Swine". In one strip awhile back, an anemone walked in and had a conversation with Pig, in which it became clear that the anemone's name was Annie May and it was Pig's enemy. Finally, in the last frame, Pig yells something about "Annie May, my sea anemone enemy!" and Rat walks in and yells, "STOP!"

It was really funny.

Hmm. Maybe you had to be there.

My wallpaper at home is the shot of Batty and me with SRD that Creator took at Elohimfest. At work, it's a shot of the Rockies near Estes Park, CO, which I found online and clicked to set as wallpaper, and now I can't find the original to post a link to it. Ah well, sorry. I am pathetic.

A screenshot from MINERVA, a Half-Life 2 mod. I like the understated feel and the fact that it meshes well with my desktop icons/shortcuts.

The race bike I'm going to treat myself to once I can maintain 18mph for 4 consecutive hours on my mountain bike.




With this sucker I ought to jump to 21-22mph with no additional exertion. That'll put me at race pace (112 miles in 5 hours).

Now I just need to be able to swim 2.4 miles in open water in two hours and run a marathon in 5 hours, and I'm golden.

Nice bike, Cail. I've never really seen how far I can go, but I could probably do 14 mph for 2 hours. On a stationary bike. Heh.

my desktop is a photo taken at the last TooL concert i attended on June 29, 2007 in Cincinnati OH. i wanted to share it here, but when i try, it looks like it's as bigger than the message board.

nice photos in here, btw.

NW is too hot for Linden Avery. My pick would be Anne Ramsey.

Watts is perfect!

Cail, I fail to see how you're going to average anything more than walking speed on a bike with no pedals.
