Do you visit the front (Home) page?

Yes, every visit, it's where I bookmarked.
Yeah, now and then.
Rarely, there's nothing there that's not in the forum.
What??? We have a front page? Where???

There are times you strive for greatness, to reach lofty goals and accomplish
noble deeds. Then there’s the rest of the times you just want to blow s--- up.

It appears that the "sprite" (red dots) shows the point at which the person's connection "uploads" to the Internet.  Could be a variety of places depending on the connection uplinks used by your ISP ... or in the case of DSL ... the point at which your DSL moves from the DSL phone line (your phone carrier) to your actual ISP or the provider providing connectivity for your ISP and where they uplink to the Internet.

Still with me?

I'm the one in Concord. Concord is the city next to Pembroke, usually when a website identifies my location it guesses Bow, which is next to Pembroke and Concord.

So far mine has been pretty close. It locates me in Gardendale, which is (oddly) a small town just a few miles southeast of my town here in Alabama. My girlfriend works in Gardendale, so I'm there a good bit anyway.  ;)
I, for one, hope this is much, much more than a reconnaissance mission.
