Many thanks to Kaelri for giving the chance to create something nice. Many thanks to all the artists who created the skins for the programs on the picture, I really had fun jamming them all together.
Hopefully that I'll be able to create my own sometime. Though I will have a lot more to learn.
Samurize was is a fun thing, I'm still on the progress of making my own, so I used Kaelri's Enigma.
Oh, Lifehackers has mentioned that StartKiller only works on XP. Well it does work on a Vista 32-bit Service Pack 1 =P I haven't seen any Vista users mentioned this so I guess I should, just in case.
It's still done from being perfect, I'm lacking a lot of things and one of them is that... It's kind of embarrassing, but I don't know how to change the location on the MoxaWeather from the Enigma rainmeter skin, I tried but I really don't where to get the appropriate URL or code, or whatever. If you can, please do help me (lol). You can provide me a tutorial or just post the code <.< (Zip code: 96782.. City: Pearl CIty... State: Hawaii).
Feel free to ask any questions, I'd love to help.

Because of a recent Lifehacker post, I decided to try my hand at using a spot of color in a black and white image. I think I'm going to go back and color the rest of Santa's suit, but I thought it looked neat like this too.
There are definitely some touchups to be done to the hat, but I'm not entirely sure I possess the skill to do it...
Using some fancy GeekTool scripts (including one I wrote myself, to get the Phillies score!) and some TinkerTooling, I've made myself this spiffy desktop.

Here I'm meeting Gina from Lifehacker. I asked her to sign the page where she introduces todo.txt. Great geek productivity tool! www.todotxt.com
Reclaim Privacy:
The hot buzz today has been Reclaim Privacy, yet another approach to
countering the Facebook privacy issues. Mashable, Forbes, PC World,
Guardian, Read Write Web, Lifehacker and many others are talking about
using this open source tool to examine your privacy settings for
potential unsafe gaps with the assumption that you'll correct them.
I don't know about you all, but while I am less than thrilled with
Facebook's privacy policy trends I am also getting a bit tired of all
the fuss. I really like that this tool scans your settings without any
security risk, uses open source code, and ultimately leaves it up to
you. You see, privacy needs for a private individual might very well
be different than those for a corporate presence or someone with a
personal brand, where you WANT to be discovered.
Another way to think about this is as, a kind of cultured courtesy.
Thinking back roughly a hundred years ago, the Western culture had
norms in place that carefully moderated what sort of things were OK to
say to whom, and these were a bit different than now. There were
benefits and costs of this. Then in the middle of the most recent past
century these sort of turned upside down, but found there were
different benefits and costs. Now we are learning, as a culture, what
we can and can't say and where we can't say it -- UNLESS we want to
bear the costs.
My basic policy is this. Don't say anything on Facebook that you don't
want in public except for in private messages to one other person, and
then treat those as you would writing email. They can be forwarded.
Avoid using real names in order to protect not just your own privacy
but that of those you care for, but instead use DS for dear son, DH
for dear husband, and other commonly accepted generic acronyms. Assume
transparency of what is said online, but manage that transparency by
being careful about what is said. Simply, assume you are talking to
the town gossip, and you should get by just fine.

But: Lifehacker got onto the front page of digg twice last Thursday, once at 2PM ET and once at 9PM ET, and you can see which one had the biggest effect traffic-wise.
Timing is everything! Not that it would take a rocket scientist to predict this...
Now back to our regular programming of blurry meals and such.

I rearranged the Motherboard once more. This placement is the best and will be kept.
Unfortunately the Board got a short circuit and started sending me smoke signals. One PCI port is wrecked. So 6 monitor support - bye bye. :(
the good thing - the investment in my blowout preventer (footswitch for power supply) worked like a charm and the thing did not go up in flames.
I'm very much into greyscale and minimalism. I also have a quirky sense of humour and an affinity for lolcats.

I can't remember where I found the wallpaper, but I will upload it on request.

Pirate Windows...
I'll call it what it is, a torrent box...
The Icons are free, from deviant art, Blossom Icon set.
Objectdock is great, and you can't see launchy.
I keep my desktop clean by having everything download into an "Active" file, which has a dock icon.
A wider view of my corner of my wife and I's shared office. A bookshelf stocked with PC parts and cables, tools, video games, software, etc. Plus my desktop PC, my laptop, and my "server" all living on or under a long Ikea table. The monitor stand is an idea lifted off of Lifehacker and all it is is an Ikea shelf and some door stops. Works really well actually. Then there's the beer fridge off in the lower right hand corner. Mmmm...beer.
I am a nerd not a geek. Gizmodo shows me all of the stuff I want and Lifehacker keeps me on track to get that stuff. "Eye Macro" by flickr user evilkenevil.
