Round 2

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Well, they need network IDs, and I have an enthusiasm for naming common household devices anyway.
"Sonuna" Taranimak ("Sonuna" Sharkquill) has been content lately. She admired own very fine Bed recently. She talked with a parent recently. She talked with a friend recently. She had a good meal recently. She admired a fine tastefully-arranged Desk recently.
She is a citizen of The United States of America. She is a member of The State of Minnesota. She is a member of The Town of Odyssey.
"Sonuna" Taranimak likes Bauxite, Copper, Green jade, the color navy, cloaks, ballistas, cats for their aloofness and hydras for their seven heads. When possible, she prefers to consume Dr Pepper and ramen.
She lives at a relaxed pace. She tends to avoid crowds. She has a fertile imagination. She is completely disorganized. She is very distant and reserved. She tends not to openly express emotions. She needs caffeine to get through the working day.

No, but that's because I don't use it very often. I would name our printer but it needs a name in the Black Speech, being sufficiently evil.

Sonuna, your desktop wallpaper is most excellent - that wouldn't happen to be a product of Pixelgirl's website, would it?

And in defense of inanimate-object naming schemas, I do name hard drives. For ease of memory, the laptop below is dubbed "Laurent" and the desktop shares "Rozencranz", "Gildenstern", "Mortimer Adler" and "Colin McGinn." Finally, the iPod, not visible in below screenshot, is dubbed "Yvgeny Onegin".

Currently a bit of a Poe-theme:

As you can see, I LOVE musical theater. There are a ton more shows that I could have put, but I ran out of room. :( Anyway, enjoy my theaterness. \:D/

Oh, and here is the actual original pic I created for it for those of you who want to see it:

To be honest I don't really know; it's something from the depths of 'misc. img', a folder approximately as large as the Marianas Trench and as disorganized as your typical hurricane.

(...well, I think it's funny)

And soon, Dolores will have dual monitors too. So you will get three exciting desktop screenshots at once, and one will probably be Linux! Isn't that wonderful?

They're probably just blocking DA because there is some on the site. DA does a really good job at blocking it themselves though, I'm surprised they would have it blocked. No, my link does not contain nudity, in case you were wondering. ;)

I think what you said here might be important, but I have already vowed never to read your posts again because you might be a bad influence. :(

I wonder if there's a way to unblock websites... :P

No worries. It just gave off that certain... je ne sais quoi that one might associate with that site.
