    indeed they are. well...we have four season ticket seats, but only one of those tickets is from the world series. One is from the national league divisional series, one form the championship series, and one from the world series. The funny thing is each one of them is form the last game of the series so there kind of cool.

    Tell her that she definitely has something special there. How does she use the computer without getting smoked by the fridge door? How does she use the mouse?

    My room. Bit messy, because I blew a few thousand dollars on stuf recently.

    [​IMG]
    Closer up view, of my recently tidied desk (can't you tell?). Brand new MacBook, 19" Dell monitor, Logitech X-530 speakers, Logitech MX-3200 cordless desktop, and my alarm clock.

    [​IMG]
    And finally, my sub, and my Playstation 3, connected to both Logitech products and the monitor for high def gaming.

    Also, photos were taken with my new best friend, my Nokia N95.

    Its an old Pentium 3 with 512Mb in RAM and so on. Them was removed it from its old big case and build a little barebone to fit the kitchen. As you can se the motherboard on it is up side down on the top of the case while PSU and cdrom in the bottom.

    This computer is just for light use and fun so you dont have to cary your laptop to the kitchen all the time (she have a 17" laptop, not the best battery time), so the fridge door and mouse placematend is not a problem :D

    If it means anything, I saw it as well.

    Annnnd, just to stay on topic, here's my rather messy desk area. It's about to change drastically, but until then, this is how it is.

    Cheap old receiver my dad gave me, I mainly use it to switch between the CD player below it and the M-Audio Audiophile USB soundcard below it. Either a pair of Creative speakers (dunno the model number, they kinda suck) (EDIT: found the model, the I-Trigue 3400s, pass on them if you can), my Grado SR-60s, or my Beyerdynamic DT770s are plugged in to the headphone out. The tuner also works really well on it.

    Oh man. I've been looking into that keyboard/mouse combo, but I haven't been able to come up with the $300 to get it. I seriously need a wireless setup; I'm getting cluttered.

    Some of those guns are props I think. I dont see how anybody can own a rpg (rocket propelled grenade) and that minigun looks kinda fakish too.

    Nice sleak and clean!

    on the guns, i had thought some were fake, like movie or video game re-makes. But some do look kinda real.
