At home: a picture I took of some pink tulips in my backyard.
At work: “Dying Words” by Walton Ford: go here and cursor to the bottom of the page.
I change mine every couple days. Sometimes, I get lazy and use Desktop Earth.
Today’s is the Bus Kids two year old prom picture . That’s Carlos, who is like a brother to her - they’re best friends, and totally platonic. Much to the Wife’s dismay, as Carlos is (I’m told) very hot, plus comes from a nice, pretty well off family and plans to be a doctor.
I’ll agree on the hot part! But remember - doctors aren’t always good husbands to have, unless they plan to open up a family practice and work 9 to 5, they’re often gone for long hours and don’t have much time for family.

Mine is a House MD wallpaper. It’s Hugh Laurie’s face covering about half the screen on a dark slate bluish backgroung. Hugh’s sexy blue eyes are staring at me.
I don’t mean to sound mean, but Carlos should really shave his upper lip. If you can’t grow a thick bushy mustache, don’t have one. A peach-fuzz mustache makes even the most handsome face look awkward.
I like making my own wallpapers. This is my current wallpaper, I made it in Photoshop a few days ago. The bicycle was “borrowed” from Google Image Search but made different.
Since the last thread like this, I have changed from a computer simulation of a coaster that was going to be built to an actual photo of the coaster after it has been built.
I can’t link to photo sites while at work, but I’ve got a pic on my work desktop, author unknown, that someone sent to me a week or so ago - it’s a picture of a cat and a dog in a laundry room, the cat is curled up in the dog’s larger bed, and the dog is sitting straight up in the cat’s tiny bed. It got a good chuckle out of me when I saw it, and I needed a new background.
At home, I’ve got a Farscape photo montage on my laptop.
E.
The same one I always have. Home is identical, except I don’t have a VNC launcher on the panel.
I <3 xfce.
For now, this.
Every time I turn my computer on there’s somebody in the room who yells, “There are goddamned snakes on the motherfuckin’ plane!!” We wallow in profanities.
Here’s my current desktop image. I just find it off to think of an official US Navy ship any color but Haze Grey.
