You like those, do you?

I got more comments on those plates than I did the truck itself! My only regret was never running into Boyd while I owned it.

I'm hoping to snag the same plates here in Manitoba to run on my new hotrod.

The "Ulster" tartan is the DB!

Our desktop is one of the few things my employer will allow us to personalize on our company PCs. This is my "Fab" desktop at both home & work.

In My Life, when it's been A Hard Day's Night and I'm Down and need Help!; when I feel like telling my boss Don't Bother Me, like It's All Too Much, All I've Got To Do is Get Back to a Magical Mystery Tour through this image and It Won't Be Long until I Feel Fine again and in The End, I can just Let It Be.

Anyone care to venture a guess as to my favorite musical artist?

Actually Jay, I believe it to be "The Beatles" it was the band that Paul McCartney was in before the super-group Wings. I also believe that they had some success.

I was thinking it was The Rutles.

Haven't got the hang of posting pictures yet. Home machines have a daily changing display of Irish Cottages, and scenery on one, Scottish country scenes on another, the server is pipe bands, the firewall and print server is tartans. The laptops are Irish country scenes on one and Scottish cities on the other. At work the scenes are determined by the boss, Vintage aircraft on one register, the other cash register has vintage cars, the parts lookup machine has vintage storefronts from around the world. The inventory units both have generic Linux logos. All the computers are Linux based, no Microshaft here.
