Resolute And Messy
A quick compare/contrast of two very different powerful men's desks.
Outgoing British PM Gordon Brown's workmanlike desk, with his boys' finger-paintings hanging on the walls and a nice photo of his wife ON his desk.
And then there's this minimalist-with-a-passion desk favoured by the US President, Barack Obama.
I don't know about you, but I know which one I find less creepy.

Personally, I've long been a practitioner of the volcano filing system which I suppose is another extreme. It's very efficient for just one user, but impossible to share with others.

One shows a world where people live and the other shows one where community organizers want people to live.

Oh, no Pollo. The link says not found. I am dying to know about that system. Sounds like it was invented by the Icelanders. ;)
Starless, God, you are good.

LOL. Thanks. I'd like to imagine that I am.

Obama's desk reminded me of the director of the Woodshead Mental Hospital in The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul.
