@Molto: Two extra keyboards? Just in case the main one with the brain breaks down? ;)
@Fiber: may I borrow your CDs? :D

OK, my display is surrounded wtih:
- a pinboard with Iron Maiden concert tickets pinned on it (ah, my pride!)
- a calendar, two hard disks in a box
- a pocket of Haribo gummy bears (almost full)
- a box of vitamins
- a yellow mug
- and my cellphone, key and an archery score-keeping notepad forming something that looks like Laocon but is a mess in fact
- aaand a totally useless empty platic box on the top of it, which I'm chucking out right away, thx for calling my attention to it :)
Up the IRONS!

TI-83, two physics books, a math book, a plethora of papers, o\zon mints, tic-tacs, a nail clipper, some batteries, some money, two bottles of water, a couple of writing utensils, an amp, a pair of scissors, a hole-puncher, a folder of contents uncertain, an iPod, a USB cable, a couple of rulers, some CDRs, a cup formerly containing tea, and other objects I can't see right now because they're covered under the pile of papers.

If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, what is an empty desk a sign of? ;)
