Fly the Google Maps skies

This admission will likely get me talked to by the Secret Service, but the first thing I did when I saw Goggles, a flight sim Flash game that lets you fly a little cartoon biplane over a city of your choice, is buzz around over Washington, D.C., since it’s the city I’d have the best chance to recognize from the air.

While trying to find Georgetown so I could buzz the yuppies, I flew over the White House and then went looking for the nearby statue of Einstein. It turns out that, if your plane gets too low, it can crash. Oops. Sorry, Einstein fans.

Some good clean dumb fun.
