Via Knoxville Talks: Google maps now offer “street views”. Basically type any Knoxville address into Google, click on “maps” then on “street views”. You will see an actual picture of your house (or at least your neighbors as the street numbers seem to be off). You can use directional arrows to move up and down streets, or side to side.

Josh Flory at Property Scope has more.

Ever wonder what happens to all the dangerous scissors, Leatherman’s, and Swiss Army knives that get confiscated at airport security check points? Apparently, they end up on ebay.

Just found an interesting auction on eBay for a Pat Summit basketball camp t-shirt. Sure enough on the shirt it says “Summit Basketball Mini Camp”. Problem is, Pat’s name is spelled Summitt. I highly doubt this shirt has anything to do with our beloved coach Pat.

Now the story behind this find. I once happened across a Pat Summitt bobblehead (this was the 2002 model, not the newer 2008 one) doll on eBay. Only, you guessed it: the person had spelled the name as Summit. To make a long story short, I was able to buy that bobblehead for $15 (plus $10 shipping). I immediately resold it (on eBay no less) for $150 (+shipping) simply by spelling the name right. Needless to say, I am constantly on the lookout for this common misspelling and actually did find it one other time. Unfortunately, only made about $60 on that find.

Now there is auctionbloopers.com, a site that searches specifically for misspelled listings on eBay. Definitely a new addition to my favorites list.
