Be glad you're not here for me to take you on a tour of my life.
I downloaded Google Earth a while back. I use it at work. I have this snazzy 'snapshot' program so I can turn Google Earth satellite photos into pretty nice .jpgs.
I've been 'collecting' snapshoots of places I've lived. I'm making a sort of 'wall of shame' out of these prints... All the places I've lived where I let the grass go wild, the shrubbery go wild, the neighbors go wild, my kids go wild... I suppose you could say that in my case 'life' is what happens when you're busy watching television.
Today I noticed that there are new photos being used. When I first got Google Earth, my work place hadn't been refurbished. Now the new satellite photo shows my car and the office manager's car parked in their spots. I view this as a form of immortality.
What have you found interesting on Google Earth?

In my ignorance and naivety, I thought Google Earth was real time. I thought this was creepy, you know, big brother and all. But then I figured out that the photos were a bit dated, so I knew I'd have plenty of time to run and hide.
Side note: You let your children run wild? I thought you beat them?
Thanks, Bert, for introducing me to one more thing to keep my glued to my computer!!!! OK, so I just downloaded "Google Earth"...put in my street address....but I mostly see trees. Is that a good sign?
If you can't see all the empty shrimp, lobster and ham sandwich containers on the screen, neither can your Reb, so you're safe. ... For now...
Nibbles, I beat them if they didn't run wild. And so they learned...
Thanks for the info, Bert....but, I don't keep Kosher... : )
I'm going right now! BTW, why is your comments an "encrypted" page these days? Are you trying to be hard to get? And that verification code: ggxgg? What do it mean? get google xtra good gig?
Grammie, imagine the confusion the phrase "keeping Kosher" could have on a newly minted English-speaker.
Even-handed Hope, like Grammie, I don't keep Kosher, but I do keep Encrypted.
