Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
Yes people, this pair of spermatozoon spermatozoa are each nearly half a mile long! At least, I think they’re sperm cells hugely magnified - it’s that or some sort of crazy elongated guitar art?
Thanks to James Bonnette

Ive racked my brain for a cheap, juvenile joke about this and am very disappointed in myself that i cant think of one.
Maybe something will cum to me later! : )
Well, Im sure the more observant among you got the jizt of Cookie Monsters joke.
Do we have a forest fire thread anywhere?
A little one just to the south of the sperm*
Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
* thats not a sentence one writes very often!
Spermatozoon is singular, spermatozoa plural.
Ive always thought it was sperms?
cookie monster, that forest fire is covered in this post: http://googlesightseeing.com/2005/04/25/forest-fire-mega-post/
Thank you Ed - but in this case, surely I can be forgiven, right? (I was obviously just keen to say “Spermatozoon”!)
Post updated.
BTW, does anyone think maybe one of them isn’t going in the right direction..?
OK — I’ll say it — because Cookie Monster didn’t — “Goodnes Gracious Great Balls of Fire!”
I don’t think they know if they’re coming or going.
Thanks Tommi - i was sure forest fires had been covered even though it was in the dark days BCM (Before Cookie Monster).
With regards this current post - i’m surprised nobdy has been coarse enough to relate it to this

so I will!
Wow Cookie Monster… That would be the shot heard round the world…
I just realized this is about 15 miles from my home in Alexandria. I will have to make it out there and let you guys know if I find anything out.
they look like big germs. not really guitars or wavy ones
