The New Google Earth 4.3 StreetView is Ridiculous

I just installed the new Google Earth and it now features enhanced StreetView, which exists in Google Maps, but it is now even more high-res and wonderful.  Once you turn on StreetView in Google Maps, then drill down tight, you will see the following shiny balls to click and enjoy :) ha ha

Once you click one of these, you get an impressive and dynamic view of the street you are now standing on.  (e.g. 1428 Grand in KCMO)...

The Ole Village Greens Golf Course

Peez took me out to one of our old college favorites 2 weekends ago.  The course is called THE VILLAGE GREENS and it resides in lovely Ozawkie, KS near Perry Lake.  We played this course quite a bit in our later days in college because it was cheap and fun.  All we had was Alvamar when we were at KU and she’s a little pricey for college kids.  Anyway, it was humid and hot but good times.  After, we stopped in Oskaloosa to watch the final round of the PGA at some local ‘downtown’ bar called Angie’s?

Simulating A Right-Click From The Keyboard

I have been doing quite a bit of LogMeIn (IT Reach and Rescue) lately and sometimes my mouse right-click does not work to get context menus.  Therefore, if you ever have this issue, just select the icon or item you need and press [Shift] [F10].  I am sure Tim could have told me this, but he wasn't here :)
