Google has walking directions from Alaska to Nicaragua which takes 1,964 hours is 6016 miles and goes through six countries. Is their any walking route that is farther that you can put in Google map?

This is completely random but I just found a cool easter egg in Google Maps. If you move the little Street view guy near Area 51 in Nevada, the guy turns into a little UFO
I just saw a video about those Easter eggs, and apparently if you put him near Legoland in California he turns into a Lego.

My friends actually baked a cake like that on NYE. I wasn’t there though. And even if I was, I probably wouldn’t have eaten it.

Today in my US history class, the teacher briefed the class about an upcoming project for which we have to select a famous photo, video, or painting (e.g. Washington Crossing the Delaware or something like this photo) and recreate it by drawing it or retaking the photo with students in place of the original subjects. Anyway, one girl said to her friends, “Hey, why don’t we do that photo of the Beatles crossing the street?” Her friends agreed, “Oh yeah, that’s a great idea. The four of us can recreate that.” The girl then asked the teacher if it was a good idea. He reminded her about the assignment: “It has to be a photo from American history.” “Yeah, they took that photo on a New York street crossing,” the girl replied. Then the teacher revealed to her the hard truth: “That photo was taken on Abbey Road —in London.”
My reaction the entire time to this abomination of Beatles knowledge:

And here was I thinking it was taken in Sydney ….

That’s true. I must give them credit for having heard of them—and even knowing (if only partially) about one of their album covers. That’s more than I would expect from most of my classmates.

UnidentifiedFiendishThingy, Mr. KiteI say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

I saw it last night and it was almost full but it was orange kind of like when an eclipse happened. I suppose it was partially due to the smog over here , but it was beautiful just the same. I’ll check in a couple hours as it is kind of light outside.

@georgiewood, have you won an award yet? And are we meant to dislike you now you like the Stones, where are we to stand on the whole Beatles v Stones thing?
