Welcome to the Ultra Exclusive Completely Limited Release Criterion Platinum Special Collector's Edition of Not My Desk!

We're very excited to bring you this once-in-a-lifetime edition... NOT SOLD IN ANY STORE!  In it you will find INSIGHTFUL WRITER'S COMMENTARY on past updates, NEVER BEFORE SEEN OUTTAKES and GAGS, DELETED SECTIONS that were trimmed for time or deemed unfit for publication, an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with the site's creator, the GALLERY OF CRAPPY LOGOS, and much, much more!  Okay, not much, much more.  That's probably about it.  In fact, there may actually be less.

Anyway, hi!  Been a while since we've had a theme week, so I thought it was about time.  Let's get started!

6.7.02:  Writer's Commentary -- Year Three plus Bonus Tracks!

Track Nine: April 8 - April 12, 2002 - Yet another goddamn new look hits the site!  Plus, learn how Not My Desk almost closed up shop in March!  For good!  Also, the message board mystery: solved at last!

Bonus Track One: The Temp Test! - Since Year Three is only a few months old, here's a bonus commentary track for the Temp Test!  Find out stuff about the Temp Test.  Not a lot of stuff... but some stuff!

Bonus Track Two: TempCam! - Ever wondered where the images on my "live" TempCam page came from?  Of course you didn't!  Who would?  Still, I explain everything about the TempCam page in loving detail.

Super Extra Bonus Track One: ???????? - What could this be?  A Super Extra Bonus Track?  Yes!  Just for you!

6.6.02:  Exclusive Interview & NMD Outtakes and Gags!

I love watching movie and TV outtakes, don't you?  It's funny when actors flub their lines or props break or things just go completely wrong!  Well, don't think that doesn't happen around here, because it does!  A lot!

Click Here for Not My Desk's Outtakes and Gags!

If you're anything like me, you spend a lot of time thinking about... me!  What makes me tick?  Why do I do what I do, and when?  Where did I leave my pants?  In an attempt to answer those questions and more, I recently interviewed myself.  The answers may just shock you!

6.5.02:  Writer's Commentary -- Year Two!

Track Five: March 6 - March 10, 2001 - It's more NMD history as Henchman of the Week bursts onto the scene (for a while), and Diversions begin distracting people from doing their work.  Also, thoughts on why the site changes looks so often and warm memories of the lovely and talented Mary Jo Pehl.

Track Six: July 23 - July 27, 2001 - Rage.  Nothing but rage.

Track Seven: October 15 - October 26, 2001 - Obnoxious idiots in chat rooms meet an even more obnoxious idiot (me), as a little something called Temp Chat appears for the first time.  Thank you!  Also, is that a haunting serenade for honey barbeque wings I hear?  Yep.  That's a haunting serenade for honey barbeque wings I hear.  Definitely.

Track Eight: January 14 - January 18, 2002 - A completely different site design assaults the eyes and tests the patience of faithful readers, the truth of why I hate poets so much is finally revealed, footage is altered so Greedo actually shoots at Han Solo first, and an anus is noticed, pondered, and covered up.  Also, NMD gets a staff!

6.4.02:  Deleted Scenes!

If you think you've read everything I've written for this site, think again!  There's tons of stuff that sucked so bad it never saw the light of day.  There are also a lot of updates that were started and never finished, ideas that didn't pan out, and humor that lacked the essential requirement of being funny.  So, take a look at the deleted scenes of Not My Desk!

6.3.02:  Writer's Commentary --  Year One!

Don't worry, I didn't go through the entire year and comment on everything.  But here are a few different archive pages I picked out and littered with commentary.  Just click on the dates below to read my self-indulgent tripe and learn more than you ever wanted to know about Not My Desk!

Track One: March 3 - July 3, 2000 - The very first page of Not My Desk!  Learn about the origins of NMD, view the never-before-seen original Not My Desk website, hear about the first (of many) discontinued features, and find out the shocking secret of Year One!

Track Two: August 14  - August 18, 2000 The Stile Project connection, the Al Gore reaction, trans-gender issues, the real reason why people are always named "Cathy" and "Todd" in my essays, and more!

Track Three: November 11 - November 17, 2000  - In which Pooh rips off Dave Barry, bitches about Theme Weeks, tells why he's no longer trying to win a car, and explains exactly what happened to Vision of the Future!

Track Four: December 5, 2000 - Learn how the Tiny Temps page rocketed me to stardom, how someone stole things from my site for a change, and why jokes should make sense!

And hey!  Even got Diversions for you this week.  Orisinal makes the most charming flash games on the net, and here's a good Collapse-esque game called Bauns.  Also, a new Mini-Golf Flash game!  You can even play two-player games or play a friend over the net (although you need to register for that).  Finally, the Ass-o-tron, that lets you put ass on the website of your choice.  Don't ask me.  I don't writes 'em, I just links 'em.  Links on the left sidebar.  Er, no!  The is the Collector's Edition, so links are on the RIGHT sidebar!  It's special!
