An interior shot of my Office Space: 1. My 8 x 10 color images of MN outdoors. Inspiring me on a daily basis. 2. Some of my Lucy photos. Also inspiring me on a daily basis. 3. My mini-globe, alerting passers-by that there is a geographer at work in the vicinity. 4. My new 21" monitor (yay!) 5. My Maxwell House instant crystals. This demands an explanation. I am attempting to not spend a buck and a half on good coffee every single day. Part of my attempt to watch my budget. Maxwell House costs me about 3 cents a day. 6. One of the fruits of my production. 7. My headphones. I'm usually on headphones, listening to music or left-wing radio. 8. My hot plate. This is technically illegal at work, but I like to nurse a cup of coffee through the day. If the hot plate goes, I go. All the vice presidents know this. If I leave coffee in it over the weekend and forget to turn it off, the inside bottom looks like the surface of Mercury when I come in on Monday. 9. Caffeine-free Mountain Dew. Don't ask. 10. My "Sir Maps-A-Lot" award certificate. Don't ask. 11. My boss' cube. The reason why I respond to your profanity-laced phone calls, Cory, with curt, monotoned one-or two-word phrases. 12. My view to the outside (the very view from which the picture in the previous photo was taken). 13 My CDs. If there is anything remaining that requires explanation, let me know. Or if these pictures from the "work series" float your boat, let me know. It's not hard to take digital pictures. Lata.

Good idea.
It's a long way from 'good coffee' to instant crystals. Good lord - is there no middle ground?
Middle ground?!? Look who you're talking to!!!
Take a digital picture of your bosses cube. What does he/she have over there? Spin the globe, close your eyes, and put your finger on it to stop it. What does it land on? I predict somewhere in Africa.
I will not take a picture of my boss' cube.
When I spin the globe and put my finger down: just off the NW coast of Australia.
Is How much satisfaction is there in instant coffee. Why not drink tea or some other warm beverage?
Have you ever tried hot Theraflu? It will keep you healthy and sleepy. Don't take it if you go up and down stairs in the day. If you do, you may get your ass kicked by the stairs. Will you take a picture of your boss? Take closer pictures of the inspirational spots in Minnesota, or name them, or both.
Not that much satisfaction in instant coffee. Just the "perk me up" factor and the warm beverage factor (plus the non-waste factor, from a packaging standpoint, and the cost-savings, both of which count for something). I am considering getting little coffee bags (like tea bags) as a comprimise. It sounds gross, but if you really think about it, it would not be much different than running coffee through a filter, provided the coffee in the bags was of good quality. Haven't had a chance to investigate, however.
No, I will not take a picture of my boss.
There are 17 inspirational pictures of places in MN. I'd rather have you visit the place I work and show them to you in person, rather than take a picture of each picture and/or list them out. Suffice to say all regions of the state are represented, outside of the metro area.
I guess I strike out. I am heading back to the clubhouse to hit the showers.
