Cool yeah!

And this following comment is based upon consuming way too much Chardonnay tonight (yeah it sounds gay, but tasted great!)

Why should we be happy with so much satellite surveillance? "Oh, it looks like Bobby on 14th Street Southwest might be a problem! Send in Homeland Security (Heimatsicherheitshauptamt in Nazi Germany) and arrest him before he commits a crime!

Not that I am making a political statement on our non-political board. :pot:

But I am a little blitzed.

Oh shit. That sounds like I am an Austrian Chancellor of Germany.

Gord. Shut the fuck up before you get in trouble!

Yep, use it at work all the time. Can give amazing detail. Also helpful in scouting out roads to try.

On Google Earth,Dave and Bettys house doesnt exist-could it be that He is a figment of our collective imagination? Some apparition from some parallell /Peckerhead reality? Some rip in the Space-Time continuum,as mention in an earlier thread? Or just an old image? Hmmmmmmmm
