Parcels don't actually "touch" the street. The public right-of-way is not included in a parcel layer.

I guess it depends on the size of the parcel, which is what started this conversation. For the most part, parcels are a continuous fabric, aside from right of way "holes". I've been in the GIS field for 6 years. ESRI products mostly. I actually used to work there. My favorite projection? We use a local state plane…

Pretty sure those are land parcels and not blocks. But yeah...I'm a map geek. I make them for a living. No haters please. I finally know something about something relevant. Cartography, and GIS in general is pretty low key and not a high-profile venture.

I'm sure it's been said, but, "It's called Google Voice bro."

It's called Google Voice bro.

I try to shy away from new vehicles, so I bought them used. The rest of the stuff I bought new...yes.

I used to work at Snowbowl. Their season depends on snow. I wasn't fond of the GM's arrogance, but I did enjoy the views and the people there. Lots of good memories. I'm actually glad they finally got this ironed out. I'll visit to ski again one day.

That works with me as well...minus the punching small holes and soda straw business.

RAZR. It was kool back in the day.

I'm in. This is my next purchase of technology.

"the middle of nowhere or anything" is the name of my next novel. thanks.

On your motorcycle too? ;-)

Android love? No?

Try drinking a bunch. They can't have a good time with alcohol in the blood. Unless they're partying and heading back to the mosquito orgy.

What the hell is Haitch Dee?

I have a Les Paul studio from way back in '87. Picked up a Martin acoustic back in '99. Purchased Rocksmith yesterday just to see if it has any beef to it. My next guitar is a Strat for sure. No question. I think every guitar (save the knockoffs and cheapos) has its merit.

I used to give quite a bit of latitude to the copywriters at Giz. However, this is ridiculous. Can you guys write or proof at all? Anything? I can barely read your stories anymore. I come here mostly for the comments. Come on Giz.

Oddly enough, stairs are a terrible waste of interior volume. Look at how much area a staircase takes up. What's beneath a typical set of stairs? Either more stairs or storage. Not that we can't use storage...but you know...

OK. A great place to discuss a topic I've never understood. My ex...every single time I would ask her how she was doing, she would have a problem...my back hurts, my neck hurts, I have a headache, this is bugging me, that is bugging me. She NEVER felt good. I never asked her how she was doing and got a positive…
