While working at an ill-fated internet upstartstartup, I was bored one day and scanned my face, carefully holding my head up off the glass because I would have been the one to have to clean off any smudges.

As a temporary bookcase decoration, I had a stylized portrait of Jar Jar Binks (courtesy of Pizza Hut) echoing Chilly's smile. Meanwhile, Nakko seems interested in my Simpsons calendar.

I set Zak & Wheezie from TV's "Dragon Tales" on top of my scanner to guard against me piling anything on top and rendering it unusable. As you can see, they weren't very good at it. (And yes, that is XTC's "Oranges & Lemons" on top.)
