      Band Name

      April 17th, 2006 by mike d. in RockStar

      currently eating: delicious ham leftovers

      My Easter was wonderful. But really? what’s better than hanging out with family and eating food. As a member of the “I love Crisco” club, eating food really makes any event much more wonderful. So Easter and Thanksgiving get extra thumbs up from the mike d department.

      Saturday was spent with Jesse and Pindar doing some serious music. And we’re thinking about planning a Big Gig. It would be called The Big Gig. and would feature our band rocking hard for a good hour and a half. Location and times to be determined, but our preliminary estimation is right around July 22nd.

      Anyway, we also came up with a few band names. And I’d love your opinion on them. In alphabetical order:

      7% Hero
      Asprin Snacks
      The Imaginary Pushcarts

      Which is your favorite?

      Skyline!

      April 17th, 2006 by mike d. in skyline, Features

      Skyline!

      Okay!

      here’s the first of hopefully many posts that will explore the skylines throughout the world.

      The game is simple, I’ll show a picture of a skyline and you can do your best to identify said skyline. Some will be easy, some will be near impossible. In order to make the game a little more interesting, a satellite image will also be available. That image may or may not correspond with the picture posted. Your job is to
      A) guess the city and country of the skyline
      B) tell me if the satellite image is from the same city
      C) if not, tell me the city or location of the satellite image

      So, let’s give it a go!

      First, here’s the Skyline.

      Now, here’s the satellite image.

      So there we have it. What city/cities?

      I would rate this particular test as a 5.7.
      5.5 for the well traveled.

      WARNING: I expect people will most likely post their answers/guesses in the comments. So just be forewarned that if you continue to scroll down to the comments the game may be ruined for you.

      Good luck!

      A bonus point will go to the person who can identify the exact location within the city that the photo was taken.
