I have a rather strange collection on my desk right now. Lets see...

First the normal things:
A monitor
keyboard
router
speakers
2 mice (one wireless)
a cookbook
flashlight
a few CD's

And some of the stranger things:
A machinist's rule
Vernier caliper
Old athlon T-bird motherboard
Upper receiver for an AR-15 rifle
Bunch of empty .223 brass
A knife
Some strange block of aluminum that I machined a long long time ago
a mason jar with a still live wolf spider in it (sucker is huge)
urine specimen jar with a snapping turtle skull in it
an ECU from a '91 Honda CRX
Dial indicator with magnetic base
Some dental picks
A little dish of Herkimer diamonds
wineglass with a spot of wine left in it
An old wooden music box, plays a slightly melancholic tune (no clue where it's from).

Yeah, I have a lot of junk on my desk...

At work: Don't have anything of my own on my desk, everyone else here does.

At Home: No computer just tons of art supplies - I am into artsy projects, they keep my mind busy
