I hate it when that happens!

All kidding aside, the technology is amazing. Some time ago I Googled "what is my IP address" (like it was supposed to know that). It did! Not only did the IP address of the computer I was using pop right up...so did an aero-image of the home I was in with a dot right over the house. You could even see the boat and the car in the driveway.

Big Brother is watching...and so is Google. Scary stuff.

                                Swiss cops using Google Earth to check out the addresses of two suspects discovered a 2-acre marijuana plantation hidden in a field of corn, reports the AP. The bust led to the arrest of 16 men, suspected of selling 7 tons of marijuana and hashish during the last 4 years. "It was an interesting chance discovery," commented the chief of Zurich police's narcotics unit.
