Watch your head, uhhh...camera...

For those of you who haven't had a chance to use Google Maps Street View, I would have to say that you're missing out.

It's pretty nice to be able to really see the building or place that you might be headed to. I've used it a few times, and I like knowing what the destination building actually looks like.

Google has hired a fleet of cars/vans/trucks, with cameras on top, to build these street "views. The cameras are usually mounted on the top of the vehicle.

This is where the entertainment of this entry begins. Things are kind of funny when something gets knocked askew. Things are even funnier when they happen with photographic evidence. I only wish it were a video camera on top of the car this time.

Okay, so one of my pet peeves is people stealing things from other people.

It's kind of the epitome of the parasitic nature of the "terrible" society we live in.

This article does bring a smile to my face, because sometimes the dumb people take themselves out of the game.
