Ok. Where are all of my f'ing pens?!?

The Man Office Sanctioning Committee officially sanctions this, as an official Man Office. The Committee rates it a nine point five out of ten.

Now of course, in the M.O. ratings, open circuitry is always a major bonus. Your eye is naturally drawn towards it, as you wonder whether there's any voltage enough to spark if you nudge against it.

But it's the little things that always impress the Committee the most. The multi-tool sitting in front of the keyboard. The unstained, makeshift shelf. Not only is there undressed, unhidden wiring, but it's leading up to the ceiling. On the left there appears to be a greasy food tray with a coke from a local pizza place (none of that Pizza Hut crap), with -- and this is the kicker -- three screwdrivers on it. Magnifico!

The carpeting is pure Man, boldly announcing that there is no possible color scheme to this area. But the piece de resistance? The hard outer shell, padded handle, faux wood exterior with the steel edge BRIEFCASE. A case that has now lasted a lifetime, and must still see some use. It's hidden just slightly behind the purple waste bin.

By the way, that bin was the only deduction by the Committee. Its terrible attempt to bring color to the area was offensive to start, but then, look at the size of the thing. Three beers and a small pizza box, and it's at capacity.

But this is only a blemish on what is, otherwise, a superb entry, and we hope that this can be corrected in 2010 so that you might move into the finals.
