My youngest took a picture of my new “office space” this past weekend, so I thought I would show you were I make the magic that is Whore Church:

That’s it, my little corner of the world wide web.
Here is a guide to what you see on and around my desk:

- 13″ color TV so I can indulge in my love of
Robin MeadeHeadline News. The box beneath the TV is the cable box that allows me to get illegal Bosnian midget clown porn. - Nifty little pen and pad mouse so I can draw pretty pictures on my computer.
- Printer that uses a special light beam I invented called a “Laser”.
- The slightly damaged laptop made famous by my youngest son. He still is banished from my office area.
- Wrap around sunglasses for when I am writing really extra-cool posts.
- Cheap speakers I got for free to replace the ones I bought from Dell which no longer work. These are usually jamming to Barenaked Ladies. (No Mom, not that kind. It’s a band.)
- Picture of me and my eldest in the dugout during High School baseball playoffs his senior year. They lost and I didn’t let him out of his closet for a week to teach him a lesson.
- Picture of my dad and mom in Alaska. Unfortunately they came home. I mean, uh, it was so nice to have them back.
- Desktop picture of my redhead. Don’t tell her about the Robin Meade joke above.
- Picture of me and my redhead as we moved back to Cincy 25 years ago for me to return to Fundy U. I had hair and was skinny. My redhead hasn’t changed. You can tell her I said that.
- Picture of my youngest–probably from 8th grade or so. He won’t let me have any newer pictures where people can see them. He thinks his hair looks funny. I agree.
- Dr. Evil Coffee Mug with extra strength java.
- Ergonomically designed, fart deadening, three way adjustable rolling office chair–designed for older men with bad backs. I chose not to get the optional hemerrhoid cushion.
- Dell XPS 4800 with AI. This advanced computer is not available to the general public but as a valued Dell customer I was sent one to Beta test. It has a 10 terabyte hard drive, 5 gigabytes of SD Ram, Instant Backup, Forest Firewall, Wireless Internet, Encrypted Satellite Access to the secure government intranet and the artificial intelligence is learning to write my posts for me.
- This is where I put the letters George Bush keeps sending me asking for advice. He can’t figure out “electronical mails”, “internets” or “the Google.”
- Bible, prayer book and prayer cards. I have to cover up this cubbyhole when I visit porn sites.
- Wireless mouse that is completely controlled by my thoughts. Only I have to think in Russian. Just like Clint Eastwood (a special prize to anyone who gets that reference.)
- Keyboard. I had this custom made to include not only the standard ASCII keys, but also keys I can use to write in tongues and to type Prince’s unspeakable name.
- This drawer contains all the mysteries of the universe. No one is allowed to open it unless their name is Pandora. Or they’re a really hot red head.
- A little man lives in this cubby. He flosses my teeth while I write using the cutest little mini-rope. I feed him Cheetos and call him Mr. Handypants.

I noticed your Samsung Printer, Mr. Gore. God bless your soul.
I have one too … Saying that “I hate it” does not adequately describe the depths of my spite for that infernal machine.
But for all our suffering in this life, we will be rewarded in Heaven. I’ll pray for you.

Ok, I can’t comment that with a straight face.
Or pass up noticing the reference to the movie with the same name as a popular browser…

Do you cover up #16 when you read my blog, your Whorliness? Just wondering.
Love,

I’m loving your workspace. Very thorough, from access to midget porn to the wrap-arounds. New respect.
January 24, 2008 at 11:58 am
[sarcasm]Nice, Janie. At least, given my last comment (two before yours), you didn’t spout out, “Internet Explorer!” or “Safari!”[/sarcasm]
(Sorry, I have to let it out like this, or else I’ll explode)
January 24, 2008 at 1:42 pm
Heh, sorry Mark.
I totally missed your comment for some reason. I’m blaming Kate. My reading skills suffer terribly when she’s trying to distract me. Between that and the double entendre fest going on just previous to your comment, it should be pardonable.
January 24, 2008 at 4:18 pm
i forgive you, Janie.

January 24, 2008 at 4:48 pm
I forgive me, too. I have to. I felt horrible about it.
January 25, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Wow, I’m really feeling the love. C’mere you two, so I can get a better grip…
January 25, 2008 at 5:14 pm
Mm. i don’t share well. Surely you knew that?

okay. for a second there i was concerned over the obsessive neatness (not that i’d notice) of your workspace.
mercifully you then numbered and extrapolated on each and every device in the image.
oh to be white, free and ocd….

so tidy.
Drop by my blog and pick up an award I just gave you
January 31, 2008 at 5:12 pm
Mark,
You get the prize on the Firefox thing–and you even get a bonus for saying it in such a creative way. Xорошая работа!
Elise,
No I don’t cover up my Bible when I read your blog, I just have it open to Song of Solomon. Ahhhh…Christian erotica, you gotta love it!
Andrea,
So you’re into Bosnia midget clown porn too? That is so cool. It’s harder to get now because there has been so much upheaval in Bosnia, but it really is better than that trash they’re putting out in Ukraine.
Rachael,
OCD, what OCD? Just a sec…[washes hands]…I had something on my hands. This keyboard is covered with germs. Just a sec…[sprays Lysol on keyboard]…now that’s better. You have to keep at it ever minute or…did I turn off the oven?…what was I saying? Oh yeah, you have to keep at it every minute or you’ll get overwhelmed. And if I can just get control of everything–if everything is in its place–you all will love me. For real.
Pluck,
Thanks for the award! I’ll put it up tomorrow. It’s really cool that you thought of me. Hope the new kid, the old kid and the old husband are all doing well and you’re getting free of your baby fat (I caught you were doing a weight loss thing…)
Janie,
Love, as always.
January 31, 2008 at 8:29 pm
Okay…even my world of naughty depravity will reel if you tell me the pages of your Bible get…
(Good Lord, i’m developing some sort of pesky moral compass…i can’t finish typing that. ~shaking head~

[...] Thursday was my birthday. XLV. (That’s Roman Numeral Lingo for 45–ladies take note: When asked your age you can always answer in Roman numerals–what? XXIX again?) My redhead got me some special pictures. And, no, you cannot see them–or at least not most of them. I will show you a shot from my camera phone of my new desktop image–it’s sufficiently blurry so she won’t be embarrassed. You can compare it with the old desktop image here. [...]
