Currently I am in Longmont Colorado 80504. (Neighborhood -105.0639888,40.1782863)


December I will be @  Cha Road, Baiyun District, Guangzhou
(neighborhood  113.2321854,23.1654758) 

I am not so paranoid about the bad guys. They can get more information from my shredded documents in the trash can than I have given here. And there is someone here always even when I am not. As for China, that's another story. I was robbed once in Shenzhen even though the building and my apartment had steel security doors. But that was because they watched me coming and going and discover my schedule, not from any information I posted on the internet.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Thank you for everyone who is participating.  I also appreciate the discussion.  I am not so interested in exact addresses but a way to see where we are all from.  Part of my interest is because it helps me put an association with the faces.  Sometimes we all bleed together in my mind and I am guessing I'm not the only one to get confused from time to time.

I also do think it would help out some of the ones who haven't been to China yet if we share points of interest there.

I'm not too fussed, frankly a good techno whizz with a few warez apps could track your IP, slice through the basic windows firewall and rummage through your files with more ease than your usual smash and grab neighbourhood ass can manage to get through your open window.

There's more stuff on there than on here.

Besides, to rob this place while I'm gone, he'd have to get through a passel of unsocialised farm dogs with sharp teeth and a "this is MY place" mentality to reach the machinery storage, through the rest of the farm workers/owners and there's ALWAYS someone on the farm every day, maybe not in the house, but somewhere on the farm. It's 3Km at the far end of a dead end one lane gravel road that winds through a gorge. One tractor parked on the road by devils bend and any thief seeking escape will have to climb a 175 meter steep bramble covered bluff, or dive 30 metres into a foaming white water mountain river...


I think you could say, I'm not worried, too much hassle for a thief here when there are lotsa houses in town waiting for them.

Well i live on Porchester Mead, Beckenham, Kent. England. And if someone can work out my home from the 200+ apartments, flats, and houses then they've worked damn hard and are welcome to my beaten up surfboards, cheap electronics and pirated dvd's.... ;D
Every now and then i get a little bit nervous at the death of all the years have gone by....!

HaHa Kiwi....

I was thinking along similar lines myself  ;D ;D

For the crims that want to "have a go" whilst I am in residence...it would be either a .22 Magnum or a .240 Hornet in the head...and if they tried whilst I am away, my son-in-law who looks after the place in my absence prefers a .303...he says its a better chance of a "one-shot-kill !!!!!!

Would this be a good time to mention that I favor gun control?  :o   ;D  really I don't.   Kiwi yours cracked me up.  I think it would have been easier to say, "Over the river and through the woods..."

I live in Martinez, Georgia next door to Augusta.   Home of the Master's Golf Tournament and James "I feel good" Brown.

Revelstoke, BC, Canada  is where I am.  I'd really love to see a map with all our locations.
