8. No idea, I'm afraid.
Wish I knew though :shrug:

I think I found it using StumbleUpon...I chose photography as one of my interests there. Additionally, underwater photos always catch my eye.
Here are a couple such pics:





Thanks for lookin'! :hi:

12. My current desktop is my favorite.


The poem is by Baudelaire...

Reversibility
Angel of joyfulness, do you know anguish,
shame, remorse, sobbing, despondency,
those dreadful nights of vague anxiety,
when, like crumpled paper, the heart’s crushed?
Angel of joyfulness, do you know anguish?

21. I don't know how to copy my desktop, but here is the background I am using


It's Bruce McCandless taking the first non-tethered spacewalk form the Space Shuttle. I kind of feel like this sometimes.

22. How about a nice game of chess?
My desktop pic (at work) is the PC screen from Wargames (the Matthew Broderick, pre-Bueller movie made in '83 or so). It's an ugly DOS screen screen that reads,

"Greetings Professor Falken

Hello

A strange game.
The only winning move is not to play.

How about a nice game of chess?"



I get a lot of comments on it at work, so it must be more creative than I thought. :shrug:
