Where in the World does your Date of Birth Take You?

Here is a bit of fun if you fancy playing along and have a spare couple of minutes,..I hope you enjoy this.....


First of all, go to the Google page. On the top left click on maps. Then tap into Google your date of birth using only 2 digits each for day, month and year. Then click Google search. Then a map will appear of somewhere in the world. If a map doesn't appear straight away, then on the left hand side of the page, towards the top will be a country, city or town, just click on it and then wait for the map on the right of the page to take you to your date of birth destination. When the map appears, look for where the letter A is situated within the red marker. Taking the letter A as the centre marker, I am allowing a radius around the A marker of 3 inches, to see if you can find something of interest or anything of significance that may mean something to you and your life.


Here are the details I added to Google maps.


My DOB.....270265


The map that appeared was of a place in Munich, Germany.


Two inches to the right of the red marker is a place called Hotel Gästehaus Englischer Garten, which basically translates as The English Garden Hotel.


Now I am a proud Englishman of 46 years of age now living in Australia. I was glad to have found this wonderful map reference which I feel is quite a significant place to end up using my date of birth. Out of all the dates of birth I could have had and all the places in the world to end up, this I thought to be quite beautiful, The English Garden Hotel.


So I have decided that next year I am going to go to this place where my date of birth and Google maps have taken me and see it in reality. Then the following year, I may try and visit the girlfriends date of birth. I haven't looked at where her date ends up, I will let her do it later to see where we are going to end up maybe the following year....


Here are my findings and links below....

One other point...If you cannot see anything of interest or significance when you first get to the map, using the zoom button on the left of the map....

Happy hunting and let me know where you end up...........

Get Yourself a Barack Obama Coffee Mug........

I haven't been on my blog for a while, but this made me wanna write something today.
Even though I am not an American, I find myself getting more and more appalled by the behaviour of the US president, Mr Barack Obama. Even when he was voted into office I thought it to be a great landmark for the US and maybe even for the world. But the last few days I have found myself feeling physically sick by his behaviour in front of the people of the world. It seems as though since the SUPPOSED death of Bin Laden by the US forces, he has taken on some kind of rock star status, this I feel to be most embarrassing, even more so if I was an American citizen. 

When he stood up on the podium in Ireland yesterday, looked around and said, "Hi, my name's Barack Obama," I just couldn't believe what I was seeing. The next thing we know, women will start throwing their panties on stage, which will get up Tom Jones' nose straight away. It just seems that since the SUPPOSED killing of OBL, he is king of the world. Something is just not right somewhere in amongst all of this. Surely the people who tell him what to say and do for publicity can't think this is all normal, surely, can they? 

And the most ridiculous thing I saw today while reading The Epoch Times, here in Sydney, was the headline, 'Obama's Re-election Campaign Gets Cheeky,' and after reading the write up, it certainly does get cheeky. Due to the election in 2012 he has now issued coffee mugs with a picture of himself with the logo, 'Made in the USA.' The other mug he has issued is one with a photo of his birth certificate upon it. 

Surely this is going too far. Oh, by the way, if you wanna buy yourself either one of these mugs, you can get one from www.barackobama.com.................................Whatever!! 

Below is a link to the actual website where these items can be bought, even though they are calling it a donation. 

I am off to be sick again now...................
