@achewood Terrible dream where Bobby Flay came to my childhood home, danced on the table, recited verse, and we had nothing interesting for him to do.

Looking at the house I grew up in is too depressing (all the fields I used to play in are now condos and townhomes), so here's my old lab.  It's the rectangular building near the center.  My office was on the top flor, in the lower right hand corner, and my lab was on the other side of the build 2 floors down.

But, now that I'm moving, my lab will be here, just to the left of dead center.

At the corner of the two paved roads at the bottom of this image, one can see where ground is being cleared for the eventual construction of my apartment complex.

Seeing my childhood home (the house southeast of and directly parallel with the two water tanks) gave me serious chills. As though I'm looking at something that shouldn't technically exist, you know?

Frustratingly enough, I cannot find overhead photographs of anywhere I have lived.
However, what it did cause was me to find this page with a small tour of, not my home town, but close, seeing as I lived in a village of about a hundred or so people, seven miles from Lockerbie.
Interestingly, about the only things that really stood out in the pictures, were in the bottom photo on page 1.
The building with the white door, and yellow sign just to the right of the monument was the Happy Garden Chinese takeaway we used, and the triangular building on the very right was the chipshop.

It's really one of those little Scottish hick towns you get in the borders. Not been back in ten years, and I'm still not entirely sure if I will...

Reload Windows?  Ugh.  Here I was going to suggest he run a tracert to see where the bad link is between him and Jough's server.  Hopefully he has a handle on it.
