California Dreamin’



Wow. Where I used to live is just past the lips.
I’m making this drive next month! I land in San Deigo and am visiting friends in Escondido, Dana Point and San Bernardino. I can just print this head and bring it with me!

White Person’s NYC Subway Map (via stfu_donny)
FWIW, my place is way off this map.

No doubt.
Two of the four places where I lived in NYC are outside the mapped area here. One of those places was in what I believe may be the “whitest” neighborhood I’ve ever lived in and the other was on a pretty swanky section of Riverside Drive, about a block or two down from Grant’s Tomb.
This map? FAIL.

For those of you worried about a “pandemic” caused by the disease formerly known as swine flu, stop worrying. Check out this chart of actual pandemics compared to the pig-death hysteria to judge for yourself.

This is hilarious because it’s actually pretty much the map I made the other week.

This is, of coruse, based on the original…

I know that the hysteria is riduculous and I have more of a chance of dying in a car crash, but do you see those 4 or 5 purple markers (confirmed or probable cases of swine flu) in central New Jersey?
Yeah, that’s exactly where I live.  And I’ll be back there in a week.

That’s insanely close to me now. Just yesterday this hadn’t gone far south of NYC.
Scurred.

I think I can make it to Maine before the roads are flooded.
Good Luck with that.
Also, I’m pretty sure I’m in the Hanna’s path.

I just got back from Maine with an NYC stop in both directions. It looks like I went a little farther north.
What a long, long drive into Maine. Only for my Dad :-)

Yeah? Well, if he’s so smart why didn’t he just fly into a gas station and grab a map?  Huh?  /kc

From cnn.com: He kept mum with the cops, but began chatting after a few days with the vet.


Yes!

A good idea. Google, are you listening?

“To: Google, and the Google Maps team
We would like a ‘Bike There’ feature added to Google Maps — to go with the current ‘Drive There’ and ‘Take Public Transit’ options….
“Help us show the Google Maps team that we really really want the ability to get bicycle directions via the main Google Maps interface. We can get driving directions for cars, we get can wonderful mass transit directions, and now we want the ultimate in sustainability and self-reliance and exercise and healthy living - bicycle directions.”
