but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow

This has been my desktop for the past couple of years now, on all my computers/computer accounts. That bright dot just inside the G ring, at 10 o'clock, is Earth (it's right next to the CoH icon).

I HAVE A NEW MONITOR!
1680x1050 is a big jump up from 1024x768. I think I need to get a video card so I can watch some hi-def videos. All I've got is Intel integrated graphics, and I don't think it's up to the job (video frames are slower than the audio).

I put the spoiler tags just in case my desktop is NSFW.
Spoiler
The day I left Port Phillip I gave that poster to a mate of mine, with the proviso that he return it to me when he gets out. I meant it as a good luck charm (he has to get out now, because he has to return the poster to me! ).

I had a great poster of Keeley on my cell's wall for most of the last two years. I kept it as a reminder that there were better things in life than what was surrounding me, and frankly she was a damn sight better looking than the people around me.
