Mapping our past and future!

 

The other day I downloaded the maps of Wales, England, Scotland and Northern Ireland for an assignment...

was shocked to see that the total file size was 1GB.

 

The Spanish Cartography Society summoned their now ex-voyaging map artist, Amerigo Vespucci, to explain what his purported maps of their conquests depicted instead of the standard, approved reality; like the properly accepted new Spanish name of the country he was depicting..
AV famously stammered out, "Um.. err.. I ca.."

 

I received an email about an online course on Map Reading & Navigation.

They say it's so good you'll be able to read maps backwards.
But I soon realized it was just spam.

 

Just got fired from my job at Google Maps. Apparently I was terrible at drawing the boundaries between countries.

They said I was borderline incompetent.

PS;  I am now not thinking of (not) mapping out a new career for myself!

 

 

 

PPS;  I promise I will give my Tuk Tuk driver a map to get me out of here!!

Are you sure that one of them is a "she"?

Either way one or both are glad the the other cheek(s) wasn't turned!

Your vitreous humour is getting cornea by the minute.  I'll send you a link to a good eye doctor's web page, it's a site for sore eyes.

 

By the way, you'll never guess who I bumped into on the way to the opticians?

Everyone.

 

When I got there he told me my test results weren't very promising.

"Can I see them?" I asked.

"Probably not" he replied.

Genie: "What's your first wish?"

 

David: "I wish I was rich.”

 

Genie: "What's your second wish, Rich?"
