well a couple days ago i was out sweeping in front on my home...

picture below...

and up the middle of the street slowly drives this white Geo Metro sporting Fla. plates... with a yellow cherry on the roof (ya' know the old fashioned rotating spotlight under glass?..)
and a huge stout black Ariel sticking up,..  with a funny little box at the top..


on the side is a Google logo - and so - it took me about 30 seconds to figure out it's a vehicle they use to photograph the "street view" for google maps...




so I  figure any day now I'll be on google maps street view.. with a broom in my hand and a really puzzled expression on my mug...

I saw them on Hwy # 407 in the Toronto area a few moths back.

For a second it looked like the guy had a submarine fetish, or maybe periscope envy. :yesnod: :icon_smile_big:

I cant wait to see that :D. I found something sorta neat today too...found my original headlight support for my car in the attic. I guess my dad stuck it in there 6 or so years ago when we moved here.

They went by my house last summer.  You can see my spouse talking with the neighbors and our kids in the front yard.

Man, what a job that would be, huh? I'd get fired though, because I'd be driving down all these dirt roads & back alleys looking for musclecars. :lol:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)
