Author Message   Just_ziptab Posted on Friday, June 15, 2012 - 09:32 pm:        On 2,000 acres,a place called Serenity.Hundreds of truck loads of cement.Wish I could fine a real picture,instead of this crappy satellite picture.Any guesses?   Iamike Posted on Friday, June 15, 2012 - 10:55 pm:        Is that the place Tom Arnold was building?   Just_ziptab Posted on Friday, June 15, 2012 - 11:16 pm:        Yep,Tom and Roseanne's digs. . . . . Ultimately, the biggest mark left on the icy Iowa landscape (and the best metaphor for the couple's turbulent marriage) is their unfinished, 25,000-square-foot Victorian house. It now sits abandoned, roofless on a 2,000-acre farm called Serenity.At the end of a gravel road, a white metal fence dripping with icicles stops would-be visitors to Serenity. But if you did get inside in the heyday, you'd have seen stuff that would've made Elvis drool. Jet-skis. Go-carts. A herd of Black Angus cattle. Godzilla and bear sculptures. Plastic flamingos — 150 of them — dotting the 17 ponds. . . . . The actual house is about 3 miles from the listed address. Took a bit of scrolling to finally find it. Private property now and too big to tear out. This will be around for hundreds of years.   Ohbueller Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 12:34 am:        Weird- that is my Ubuntu desktop - right down to the theme - not used to seeing that anywhere else. Bing has nice bird-eye images - what is the address / GPS coordinates?   Cataract2 Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 01:01 am:        Ohbueller, a bit off topic. How do you like Ubuntu? I just got a new laptop and desktop and plan to setup the drive for a dual boot of Windows 7 and Linux. I'm leaning towards giving Ubuntu a run.   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 01:01 am:        I think I found it, 40°55'21.28"N 92°10'51.95"W http://binged.it/NLPB6k http://goo.gl/maps/KDHV   No_rice Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 01:48 pm:        2.5 hours. seems like a nice ride with the cameras in hand some day...   86129squids Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 02:27 pm:        Cat- still OT, but I just got a tablet/laptop set up with a dual OS partition for me and the GF to use- she's got the latest Wind'ohs Ultimate, I've got Ubuntu 12.04, which was released at the end of May this year- so far so good! Seems a LOT quicker than my old Ubuntu 9.04, and of course getting the GF out of Vista into the latest Windows OS will tickle her... Now I gotta re-learn how dumb I am at 'puter stuff.   Just_ziptab Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 09:36 pm:        Thanks Froggy.....somehow,I knew you would come up with a better image of the shack. .......
