Cheesequake, NJ according to itouch.com

Young master has some powerful contacts, high up! (Fleshy, are you taking notes?!)

That is some GPS that phone has as well.

I couldn’t get closer than Colts Neck NJ hacking the WX page. http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.26311326261879&lon=-74.16977609375002

Here we go:

Selected Location:Address: Guadalcanal Rd, Colts Neck, NJ 07722, USALatitude:40.2626158°Longitude:-74.1711845°Accuracy:6: Street level.

…inside US Naval Weapons Station Earle!

I went to Cheesequake Stat Park, near the GS Parkway. The coords are near the parking lot. A geocache is nearby, if it wasn’t vaporized by accident.http://coord.info/GC3VVQQ

You guys are pikers. I know that my house (in CT) is roughly 42 degrees N, and 075deg W. One degree of latitude is 60 miles; so I said, Hey! That’s NJ!.You and your fancy Internet and GPS….—former Navy QM

…heh. So much for my showing off: 072deg W is where I’m at..And at this latitude, one degree of longitude is roughly 35 miles.

Not a degree per mile.It’s a minute a mile.360 * 60 = 21600 which is 13% short of the 24,900 mile circumference of the Earth.

Will we see young Master Sedgewick go trick or treating this year?

I guess we know what political stance we’re taking here @ Monty.

This is BS! The really super wealthy are all supporting Obama. Knock of the lies!

Less politics please. p.s. the location is in a state park, so no houses…

I googled you Latitude & Longitude in todays comic in my Fairbanks Daily News Miner, Fairbanks, Alaska and found it the be Alaska’s own, Denali Earthquake Fault, which you can see by clicking here: http://www.aeic.alaska.edu/monthly_reports/catalog_2002_11.pdf Thanks for the humor.

Far be it from me to wish ill upon those who inhabit New Jersey but come come now… Cheesequake? Seriously? One cannot help but think, “They’re just asking for it!”

“Cheesequake, NJ” sounds more made up than Frostbite Falls, MN.

The kid will grow up to be a ChickenHawk, just like his idol, Willard.

Bravo..Sedgie!

I just love these guys. Sometimes I wish they had their own comic.

By the way, the strip that ran on October 16, 2011 (exactly one year ago) showed Monty’s driver’s license, and his address was:13 Richardweed Ln Cheezequake, NJSo what’s up with October 16 and Cheesequake?

@Strod, thus my punishment for wild misuse of internet mapping resources!

Binging through the history after clicking the “Read Monty from the beginning” link. The location is Cheesequake State Park in New jersey: https://www.google.ca/maps/place/40%C2%B026’31.1%22N+74%C2%B016’09.8%22W/@40.4417649,-74.2704945,572m/data=1e33m48m24d-74.2693806
