First off, xkcd continues to be the single most amazing comic that has ever been written. Seriously, that may be my new friendslist criteria. If you are NOT reading xkcd, then you have no right to be on my friendslist. It's amazing.

As for that specific comic, I think I need to go do that now. Get a couple kites, go out on the streets, and run with it.

Hmmm...if only there was particular space time coordinates that are less then two miles from my college where a lot of xkcd fans would be gathering...

:D

Completely unrelated, can doing things "FOR SCIENCE" now be known as "Pulling the lever the second time"? Because I think that that's an awesome name for it.

Second off, thanks to ShadowKev for finding the LOLcky Horror Picture Show.

And by thanks, I mean, you're a disturbing man for managing to locate it. Whatthefuck, man? *grins*

Annnnnnd I'm out.

MOOP!

I am *so* there. Thanks for inspiring me to look at where it would be.

Not a problem!

I had better see you there, since I think you're the only person I know so far who lives closer to it then I do.

According to Google Earth, the coordinates are a house on Brady Loop Road in North Tewksbury, MA. That's 30-plus miles from Harvard Square.

Humm...according to my copy of googleearth, it's a playground about two miles from Lesley.

However, my version apparently needs an update. Lemme do that now and check.

And for the record...uhm...do I know you?

Yeah, I just checked with the new version (Which is running unfortunately slow) and I got the same thing. It's a playground about two miles North and West of Lesley University, which is almost due north of Harvard Square.

You do indeed know MrBelm although I'm not sure that you realize the significance of his name. See he's been using it since he used to live with us back when you were born.... is that big enough a hint for you? If not, ask me later.

Love,

I hope you know who I am, or no Guitar Hero for you!

And, yes, the coordinates (while non-standard notation) are indeed a playground in North Cambridge. I know exactly where it is.

I figured it out. :)

Yay playgrounds. Will I see you there?
