It's really quite nice. I walk around the city and marvel at how many people basically look out onto tarmac or brick. After living with a view for so long, I can't imagine not having one. But most people don't (at least not in cities). Another reason to count one's blessings. Bernard On Tue,

Hey this is a fun game - here's a page I put together to advertise for new housemates that displays my house views. Golden Gate park in front, and the bridge and Marin Headlands in the back to the north. And 10 blocks to the Pacific Ocean. http://fulton.barncard.com/ On 16 April 2012 16:12, Bob

That makes me so, so envious. At least I look out on a park (which is good for living in a city centre). But I so want to live by the sea on the west coast of somewhere (preferably somewhere warmer than Britain). If it wasn't for my other half insisting on living in the city centre, I'd sell up

Folks, Just installed Mac OS X Lion and was trying to build a little mobile app when I discovered that I needed a new XCode for that. While I was downloading the new version, I went to browse my TV news. Here in Brazil, in our main broadcast channel, we have a series called "The Brazilians Girls"
