It puts me on Pleasant Avenue, which might be a … pleasant … place to be… But, I actually live somewhat south of that. Interesting thing is, I did look at a house about where it puts my dot, before eventually buying the one I did.

It says I live right next to the big landing strip at Westover AFB. I think the Air Force would get mighty pissed if they found out I’ve been camping there.

It appears that I am domiciled at the local middle school. That’s off by a bit, but it’s a pretty big zip code area…

I’m… on a riverbank about 3 miles SW of where I actually live.

Nope, just a residential street about 2 miles from where I actually live.

Odd, it placed me on the edge of town, nowhere near centered and there’s no one else anywhere close that it was avoiding.

It’s cool, though. I can walk about 300 feet from my balloon and be at my girlfriends house, or walk 500 feet the other direction and revisit my highschool. 🙂

It says I live in a certain house on Welsh Road. Although I’ve passed by that house many a time, I don’t actually live in it.

I’d like to add that I know that there are more PhillyDopers than just **twickster** (who seems to live in the woods near the R8 tracks) and I.

Decent participation so far, but where are the Pittsburghers?

I’m the only Doper in North Carolina so far. I’d think the Research Triangle would be full of dopers.

I gotta say that I know I’m not the only NM dweller on the boards, but I feel _mighty_ lonely right now looking at that map. I’m almost certain that there’s a couple Albuquerque dopers out there, but even if not: C’mon, southwest dopers in general! Only one Denver-ite? No Phoenix-ians\*?

Also, for some reason the satellite view puts me on the wrong side of the tracks (literally): my little marker is about five miles away from where I actually live, and in the literal middle of nothing: a huge swatch of undeveloped land, on the opposite side of I-25 from everything.

Imagine how some of us who don’t live in the U.S. feel – _and_ it has me at the port city about 25 klicks away from where I actually live.

It has me in the middle of a golf course. I don’t even play golf! 😉

That is cool. I added myself! But, why is Vaughn listed, but not Toronto? 😕
