Gone, be back soon

I often get told that people have no idea when I’m out of town. I mean, my roommate knows now, and my girlfriend knows, and now the rest of you know.

Here, I made you a map. I have no idea if you can actually see it, because I’m new to this Google ‘My Maps’ thing, but I think you can. In case you can’t, here’s a screenshot too (but if the link works, then you can see my commentary, sparse as it may be).

See you on the 20th!

A non videogame related story, with naughty bits in it

This one deals with a giant drawing of genitalia on a rooftop. According to The Sun:

PRANKSTERS drew a willy on the roof of a top school that was so large it could be spotted from SPACE. But it went unnoticed until it was seen on Google Earth.

A group of ex-pupils was last night blamed for the rude shape — snapped by satellite.

One former pupil of £2,906-a-term independent Yarm School at Stockton on Tees, Teesside, said: “A couple of ex-students hopped over the school fence on a weekend and went unnoticed by guards.

They managed to get on the roof of the Friary building and somehow mark on the willy. They also burnt a manhood into the grass.”

Although the shape on the roof has been scrubbed off it can still be seen on Google.
