So I recently got myself a copy of Google Earth and have been having a great time with it. It is really quite amazing the power of this program. Along the way I have found some really cool stuff with it, some of things I found on my own others I have found via the net.

For those of you not familiar with google earth it allows you to explore our planet via satellite imagery in ways that you may have thought was only available to high powered governments. It is also combined with google maps and google search making it even more powerful. It really is quite fascinating and it’s free!

Here are some of the neat things I have found if you have google earth and click the “visit in google earth link” below it will bring you there in google earth:

My house Sorry, not going to link you	A plane flying visit in google earth
Dave. I’d like to buy this guy a beer visit in google earth	The Hoover Dam visit in google earth
Area 51. No UFOs visible visit in google earth	Ground Zero visit in google earth
Marree Man visit in google earth	Flying car? visit in google earth
Thunderhill: Where I raced my Miata visit in google earth	Trinity: location of first nuclear explosion visit in google earth
A couple SR71 blackbirds visit in google earth	B2 Bomber visit in google earth
F117A visit in google earth	Old plane in flight visit in google earth
Airplane graveyard visit in google earth	Creepy black helicopter visit in google earth

Pretty cool stuff. I suggest you give google earth a try, it’s fun and free.

Since it seems to be the in thing to do these days and it looks like fun I have decided to start this here blog. Not really sure what I am going to talk about. I will probably share some funny links with you all, rant and rave, share some pictures, pimp my sites, BBQ babies, and just do my best to make it entertaining.

To start things off I present you with R. Kelly’s Urban Opera “Trapped in the Closet”. I realize that I am a bit behind the times on this unintentionally funny masterpiece but from talking to some of my friends and coworkers I am not the last person to discover this.

Trapped in the Closet could quite possibly be the funniest thing I have seen in the last several years. I almost fainted at the end of Chapter 9 I was laughing so hard. I don’t want to give too much away about it so I won’t go into details.

There are presently 12 chapters and I am hoping for more. You can find all 12 chapters right here
