Fresh air. Or a crappy job, or both. Reading helps me.

One thing I did a while back was Google image searches. Just put in a word (sans filter, if you are brave) and see where it goes. By the third or fourth time you'll hit something you never imagined would have anything to do with the word. You can follow oddities like that from topic to topic.

Wait, wait, this is cool. The other day I was doing that. I did 'Deco', went through about 20 pages. Then I did something *completely* different, and one of the images that came up was the exact same one that came up for Deco. Freaky, huh? What are the odds?

Google image search is kind of mystical to me now... like Mah Jong tiles, Magic 8 ball, or the entrails of animal sacrifices.

Or you could just go to desktop hoochee dot com like a lot of wallpaper artists do

but you won't get the full blockbreaking benefit of the treatment unless you take me along.

I was experiencing the "block"............ starting working on the FAQ, and that seem to do the trick. I'm now working on a WB skin. Something I've always been afraid to tackle.
