Got Some Time to Kill?

Here's one to keep you busy for a while.

First, if you haven't downloaded and installed Google Earth yet, do it. It's pretty freakin' cool.

Second, fly around the world looking for signage or lettering readable from an "eye altitude" (altimeter in lower-right of screen) of at least one mile.

Example: Here's one I found today - Seahawks Stadium in Seattle from an altitude of 5,287 ft.



Have fun. Just don't come crying after your boss fires you for goofing off all afternoon doing this stupid shit.

UPDATE: Runways at Logan Airport in Boston from 5,286 ft.



UPDATE: From reader, Alan, the USS Arizona.
