    Isn't it nice having someone else in control of your PC?

                    I won't post a pic, but rather, just describe it: Solid color, black. Since the days of Windows 3.1. Whenever I've tried to use an actual wallpaper, I've always changed it back within a day. As a bonus, when I migrate PCs, I don't have to remember to backup my wallpaper file...

                                  Currently Chauvet caves in France[^]. Largely because it shows an understanding of and sensitivity to art that was lost in the 30 thousand or so years that have passed since.

                                        I'm not a big one for lost civilisations a la Graham Hancock - however that painting definitely shows something was present within the conciousness of the artists that was far beyond what many art school graduates can produce nowadays. The amazing thing is that this was painted over 30,000 years ago!

                                          Wow, nice! :D Makes me want to listen to some bluegrass, but only because I've seen a hillbilly movie with that setting once :D
