    Body in Frig at Belleplain

    IMO... if you find a body, the police are gonna have a whole lot of questions for you, phone or not. I learned that on Forensic Files! :clint:

    Safety tips from the past

    NJPB Safety tips from today... 1. If you encounter an angry man with a gun in the woods, don't argue with him. 2. If you see an old refrigerator in the woods, don't open it. ( :D sorry...)

    Body in Frig at Belleplain

    My takeaway is more like, if you find a body somewhere don't report it unless you're prepared to cooperate with the police. Seems like common sense... if you report it, you'll be added to the list of suspects. Hopefully you will be quickly cleared, but I think the police would be negligent if...

    Wait... there's no such thing as Sasquatch? That's not what they say on the Discovery channel! :ninja:

    Thanks for following up! Cool... now we have a "mystery building"! :ninja:

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    The main reason I don't use the DVR function on Sling is that it's not needed. With most channels you can just scroll backwards through the schedule to watch a program that you've missed, it lets you go at least three days back that way (maybe more) and lets you resume watching a program where...

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    I had Comcast for 12 years in Medford, but there was no cable or broadband of any type when I moved to my current hideaway in Pines in 2006. I embraced it and didn't watch any broadcast or cable TV until 2020 when I got Sling during the COVID lockdowns (got FIOS for internet only in 2017). If...

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    Cool... that makes sense for you then. But sounds like what I thought, nothing there for me except a $30 higher monthly fee.

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    As a moderator at MacRumors, I frequently see people say how happy they are with YouTube TV. Google is a necessary evil for me, but I've almost completely given up on YouTube, I just don't like the whole experience on their website. But I still like to have an open mind. Why are you so happy...

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    That's weird, I could not get that to happen no matter what I did! That looks like the name the forum software uses internally. If I "mouse over" the attachment in my forum post, the gray box gets larger (see the one on the left below). If I click that, the file downloads with the correct name...

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    Oh, also remembering an old bug with using .kmz files on a Garmin GPS, don't know if it was ever fixed. Those filenames may not work, I don't think the GPS would recognize the underscore character. I think you could only use numbers and letters. If you can't get them to work on the gps, try...

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    In the Finder preferences, I have "show all filename extensions" checked. Maybe that's the difference? Have seen problems with this confusing people before, because it doesn't show the .kmz part. So they add it manually and end up with a filename like bear_swamp_hill_1970.kmz.kmz.

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    Just tried, they downloaded with the correct .kmz extension and opened right up in Google Earth when I double-clicked the downloaded files. I was using Safari on my Mac. What happened when you downloaded them?

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    Very cool Guy! Here are .kmz versions of the 1970 and 1975 Bear Swamp Hill aerials if anyone is interested. I tried them in Google Earth and they should also be compatible with Garmin Basecamp. They *may* be in the correct format to use as a Garmin Custom Map on a GPS, but I didn't test. If you...

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    Here's another aerial from 1975, could not find any from the 60's or 50's. But this one should be a good example of the difference after the crash. That "building" (?) appears to be gone and there's a road running Southeast from the tower (?). Is that the debris field from the crash? Or a road...

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    Thanks! Then that building must not be the bathrooms. Is it even a building? Looks very rectangular with straight edges and a shadow. This might explain what I was asking a little better. :)

    1950's, 60's and 70's aerials

    I started working on the 1970's aerials a few days ago, going pretty well with 53 plates georeferenced already. Might be able to finish all the NJ plates in about 3 weeks? The ones deep in the pines are the hardest to do because there's often nothing but trees where I want to place a control...

    Body found on Pasadena Road in Whiting

    Weird... an Indian guy in New York is murdered by four Indian guys from Indiana, then dumped in Greenwood? (FWIW, when I first clicked that link, an ad blocked the whole page and couldn't be closed. But it went away after a little while)

    Retirement Has Arrived

    Just think of all the gas and wear and tear on your car that you could save by moving to the Pines. And depending on where you are now and where you move, you might be able to sell your old house for more than the new one as well as save money on taxes! :)
