I suppose I ought to show my desktop. It tends to be static - I don't change it very often.

So can anyone tell me what the picture is?

Well its a clock of somesort...is it made by Leonardo Da Vinci? dont ask me why I said that I just seem to have an incling...but I could be way off here...

 

Are they Tarot cards?

 

Doesn't time fly she's now 23. 15 when she did Lost In Space.

Ok here's mine, hasn't changed in a while, cluttered up as much as my real desktop.

 

funny you should mention that...I have been thinking the same myself...you think the desktops are bad...u aint seen my room and the posters I have on the walls....you wouldnt even want your grandmother in here!!!

 

LOL, I definitely wouldn't want my Grandmother in your bedroom - posters or no posters!

 

LMAO!!! crackers mate...I aint that bad!! really... hehe...

 

No - it isn't a clock. For a start it has 4 hands and 3 edge wheels, and I've never seen a clock like that!

Harry.

 

While there aren't any cards there your suggestion isn't all that far from what it is and does.

Harry.

 

Horoscopes?

 

That's an altheiometer isn't it Harry? It tells the truth, if you have the knack!

 

Yup - 10 out of 10 there! That is exactly what it is.



Harry.

 

Rephrase - Are the symbols on the "clock" the same as the symbols on Tarot cards?

Now I'm off to find out what an altheiometer is.

 

OK, I'm back. So is the altheiometer purely an invention of Pullman's imagination or is ite some kind of historical/mythical artifact?

 

It's Pullman's imagination.

Harry.

 

As far as I'm aware, it is a creation of his. Although, through time there have been a number of devices and methods that were supposed to predict the future or divine the truth.

Now the subtle knife on the other hand... Better than a lightsabre?

 

I'm no expert on the Tarot, but I believe there is a lot of commonality. I seem to remember reading, however, that there are some symbols not in the Tarot.

Harry.

 

This is mine- I'm a japanese car enthusiast

 

I doubt you'll impress the girls either if they get a look in there!

 

Actually Clyde I have had a couple of girls in there and to my surprise they were rather pleased!! kinda shocked but then again one of them is kinda like the female version of me so I should have seen that one coming otherwise they werent shocked at all cos they know what I am like...
