This is how my home will be forever memorialized by google earth street level view.

Yes that is what it appears to be, a broken toilet.

Your Momma warned you

"Alway be sure you wear clean panties" ...it was a metaphore, you never know when you will be in an accident and taken to the hospital, or scanned by GOOGLE!
Congratulations! Thats pretty funny :)

trash day!

They always came by on trash days! People I know in five different cities all have the trashcans out on their blocks. I thought Google must have put their cameras on the trash trucks at first. And always in August or January when lawns and gardens are at their worst too. (I've heard your can complain to google and they will replace the picture if its a privacy concern - works when their is a person in the picture, I think a toilet is even more private, right?)

Copuld be worse, could be NOW

Around here, warming weather and frequent light rain have eaten most of the snow exposing months of doggy surprises left on everyone's front lawn.

YUCK !

Paula, LOVE your flower planter. Self watering is it? Or is it southern dogs are so well trained that they use a ... instead of a tree? Though wiping would be a problem, no opposable thumbs.

Hey, here's a *fun* thought. St Patrick's Day is coming soon, Google can photograph half of Milwaukee puking as they stagger out of the *Irish* pubs.

P.S. Paula, don't you want a bit more privacy than that? Plus you really need to level it, it looks a tad off. Is that a shower in the car port?

P.P.S. Or they could come by early morning and catch my dad gettting in the paper in his PJs. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah !

Google follow up

The Evil BlondeTM, my sister, says OUR Google Streetview WAS, drumroll please, on a trash day! In late spring/early summer.

Not sure if it was also a recycling day, then we would have a hopper shapped green cart and a taller trash can shaped black and yellow cart out here in Wauwatosa. Wednesday pickup in our aldermanic ward.

P.S. with kids out playing and my dad's car in the drive, proably after school let out, say four PM CDT.

That's funny!

I'd be surprised if the Street view Google van ever came down my street. I live Waaay out in the boondocks. There are only a few houses in my neighborhood that can even be seen from the street! All they'd get a picture of is trees and nut brush.

Well, at least it ain't raining!

All ya got ta do with that toilet is set it up and plant flowers in it. Geeze, the grass is mowed. The Sun is shining, and it ain't rainin'. Life is good.

Here, where I am, it is about 40 Degrees F, the wind is south at about 20, and it has rained, it is raining and it will rain more, and I am sick of it!

Has staff that does nothing but fix (usually by blurring) things people don't want associated with images. Write them and ask them to remove an invasion of privacy and potential defamation.
