    There is my humble abode. That hydro field with the wacky text (shut up, I was/am bored :p), was set on fire twice... the whole thing lit up and the flames came 10ft from my fence (which is made of wood by the way...). Actually the other day some <insert bad word here> set a fire but I caught them and was yelling and swearing at them from my side door and they put it out instantly. If they didnt I would have had to hang up the phone, run over there, put it out, and knock some sense into those retarded kids.

    I mean what in Gods name would you be thinking to have the stupidity to set a fire in a DRY FIELD where lots of people live? I guess not everyone can be even remotely intelligent... *sigh*

    EDIT: I just realized how ugly everyones lawn looks in that photo... I wish Google would update their images... :p

    Vinnie: OK now I think I have a clue. I think you are near water, right?

    Potyondi: could you give us a pic from higher altitude because I'm kind of lost looking at that pic.

    Gromuhl'Djun: Nice job, do you and Vinnie live close or does it just look
    this way on the pics?

    bigpipe: Nice place! Looks quiet and serene (or at least that the impression I get).

    Drakazar: You must have a nice view of the field. Is your home quiet though or is there too much noise coming from the street? (By the way, you did have too much time on your hands :) )

    volkov956: Same here, my house doesn't even register on google. Not a big western urban environment I guess.

    shava: Is your place the one with the cross? Well, we all prefer google earth but can you get a pic out of it? Hey, what's on the right? Looks like a field with a few buildings. Is it a school or something?

    NvidiaFreak: Ahh, true New Yorker style! Are those the railtracks i can see? Does it get noisy or are you used to it? Does that make the rent cheap?
