LOL! I gave KC a *VERY* hard look too. I tried to make it work. There's also a city in Illinois (the name escapes me) that looked to be it until I got in tight -- the city had developed to the banks however and I knew it wasn't it...

Kobi wins on this one for me too... you 'west coasters' enjoy figuring this one out while I'm sleeping. I'll be back though... g'luck.

I'm not sure I'm understanding what you're saying here. Are you saying that the picture I posted is not where I was born or that where I am now is not where I was born (that where I am now is not where the pic is of).

As of Tuesday, I am in a suburb of Lost Angeles. I do know that the IP can show up as any number of areas around LA, for whatever that's worth, but then again I have been told that the IP sez I'm in London while I'm in LA. Whatever.

I'm in LA. The pix (the original satellite shot and the street level shot) are indeed the town I was born in. It is not Los Angeles. I will also tell you it is not KC (for whatever that's worth).

Did I say this one is in the US? I don't remember.

Bed time.

bu-bye

I was showing that you were in the LA area... I won't say exactly where but, let's say it started with an "I" and ended with an "E". You're not cloaked. Yet.

Here's my guess...Kobi is in LA, but was born in Canada. Just north of Thunder Bay.

Is my mind playing tricks on me, or can I read 2006 GOOGLE in the water and on the sand??? It's very clear up by the inlet to the harbor, and also by the south dock on the island.

Good Grief, you have sharp eyes. I could barely see it after you pointed it out.

It's my young eyes Jim. It's a good thing I can still see close up things without contacts/glasses, or else I'd be screwed.

Vader, You've got PM!

Oh now Zaair....I got your PM but you know I couldn't divulge what little information I have...that would be unethical.

Now I may dabble with the Dark Side but off line conversations are protected by the Dark Lord of the Sith Personal Communications Privacy Act of 2004 .

It states that all private or personal conversations are protected from public disclosure without the consent of involved parties. It is enforced by the rule of lightsaber and other nefarious devices.

I can therefore only disclose this information if Kobi agrees.

Kobi...your input is required. Until then I remain......Silent.

LMAO. Every time I read Vader including wording of Star Wars, I think of the Star Wars Kid that was posted on the net. Come to think of it, I remember someone telling me that was Vader....hmm

a few notable differences...

I'm not fat....well...I'm getting there but I'm still in a 34 waist

My vision is good...no need for glasses.

Wouldn't memorialize that on tape.

a few notable similarities...

I've done fake light saber battles as a kid.

My kid and I go out at night and battle with the light up swords in the front yard. He thinks its awesome...and secretly so do I.

My fake light saber sound is about as bad.
