The hell?

Also, yeah, why *can’t* you see the cowboys in the link you posted (to the intersection of N 17th and Cambria), but there they are, clear as day, at the address 2890 N 17th? Did they gallop off by the time the van got through the intersection?

(Okay, actually I am forced to conclude, based on a careful examination of the shadows in street view, that the google-mapping van got as far north as that corner and then quit for the day, which is how the horses disappear… But why, google van, why? You saw two dudes on *horses* in burnt-out North Philly and decided *not* to follow them?)

Weird. So weird.

That’s nothing… I was checking my aunt’s house out on Street View and as I got near it I saw her on the front porch… kissing my uncle! Awesome!

Google Street View is watching you…
