Items From The Cube Farm
Uh…pictures?
Anyway, I thought I’d take some random shots of the dumb stuff in my cube. You can see whatI see when I’m not training those wacky nurses and doctors during the day…
Ah yes…the gateway to paradise.
Not like I’m that big of an ego-maniac that I gotta have my name on my cube twice, but the top piece is from my old job. I was so stoked that they were able to fit my entire name (first, middle, last) on there thatI just need to keep using it. I know. I’m lame.
Coolest. Calendar. Ever.
I stuck myself with a lame Magnetic Poetry calendar last year. This year, I wasn’t going to take any shorts. Since Reservoir Dogs is like…one of the best movies ever, I decided it was time. I sometimes have to ‘censor’ the phrases down at the bottom of the calendar. But speaking of Magnetic Poetry…
The Magnetic Poetry Bandit strikes again!
Portable watering hole…and child.
I get a request for a meeting and I’m there without my coffee. Why? Well, it’s because I don’t DRINK coffee. Crazy, eh? Never developed a taste for it. I think the smell is even horrid. So, I bring this little bad boy (complete with a sticker of my favorite band Eels on it) and I’m ready for action. In the background? There’s Travis on Santa’s lap and the little man at 1.5 years old.
Stop. Hammer time.
And of course…the required action figure. This here is Elijah Wood as ‘Kevin’ from the movie Sin City. He’s a bad guy and he’s got a sledge hammer. I mean, who could pass this up? Well, I probably could’ve, but it was on close-out for like $3! Sold!
Party people can ya hear me?
A photo of yours truly taken at a Christmas Party a year and a half ago. Somehow, I got enough delicious Miller High Life in me to step up to the mic. I belted out Bon Jovi’s ‘You Give Love a Bad Name.’ I never really saw what I look like singing. I guess I sort of get into it.
But seriously. Seeing all these treasures…doesn’t it just make you wanna stay a cubicle rat forever? No? Yeah…me neither.

Have a good weekend, everyone.
You deserve it.
If my entire name could be displayed on a nameplate, I would proudly display, too! Especially considering I have more letters in my name than you do.
Congrats on the requests! I got my fingers crossed for you…
PS–your cube looks like mine–packed with weird crap. I have magnetic poetry, too!
My “cube” is a corner of the lab containing biocides. Biocides are like pesticides except instead of killing pests, they kill everything living. Yeah, I try to eat lunch away from my desk as much as possible.
At my desk are 10 heroclix stationedaround my moitor. One them is Batman, the other is just Marvel. Then there’s the free calendar gamestop gave me. Oh wait and there’s a Galileo thermometer that my old boss gave me. Pretty boring overall.
Hey Thomas, where’d you get that calendar from? Love that movie! I have a fantasy calendar, and on my memo box I taped a picture of a woman knitting; only she has no arms, only hands…gruesome…
Yo DH,
I got mine at Borders, but they clear out their calendars around mid-January. I did see you could scoop one up on Amazon:

Might be able to find one cheaper somewhere else considering it’s July already!
