   Oh man...

   ... and I was gonna send them my last 1000 photos of downtown Milwaukee, (they were gonna pay me $15).
   
   Well, to be fair -- I did try the service once, and it was pretty damn good. However, it was never gonna make it -- so this is no surprise. Outside of major metro areas, they had no coverage.

   Eventually

   Will we be able to pull up information about places, with all the detailed insider knowledge, at the snap of a finger? The current situation is very uninformative, with "tourist books" steering us toward the tourist traps. Locals are often not very helpful, out of exclusiveness or taking things for granted.

   "Insider knowledge at the snap of a finger"?

   Dorpus, are you kidding? Once it's freely available to all via web search, it is no longer "insider knowledge". That's why you're unhappy with tourist books. Here's how it works: Someone finds an awesome restaurant/hotel/art gallery/natural site that no one really seems to know about. This is "insider knowledge" because you had to be there to know it. Or maybe know someone who knows it. Then, it gets written up, or photo-blogged, or added to a search engine. Suddenly everyone knows about it. It becomes a tourist trap purely through the very means you are suggesting we use to avoid tourist trap-ism! It's cyclical, and there's no way around it except to get off your computer chair and go out and look for yourself. Trust me, keep an open mind and it'll rock.

   Angelina Jolie

   Vaginalina Jolie. Ode to a dirty adultering slut! She is the quintessential yeasty-twat twit-whore. The hypocritical seeker of the sloppy Aniston seconds should invest in liposuction of those gnarly sausage lips to augment her bony arse, so her head might be better nestled while up there.
   
   Vag Jolie...the apple does not fall far from the nasty Jon Voight. You have your father's bizarre, exaggerated facial twists and pus-bucket cheating heart.

   Re: What

   I don't understand the injection either, but I'll bite...
   
   I think she comes from cross-breeding a runway model and a runaway collagen injection, or a praying mantis and one of those hairless cats, or maybe a bad acid trip and a Dennis Hopper film. (All of the above could be natural byproducts of being Jon Voight's demon spawn.) ;-)
   
   There is something about her that reminds me of a home-perm in a trailer, soggy bratwursts, and Beetlejuice...and...well...Jon Voight. ::shudders::
