Bill Gates is my neighbor — but you're gonna have to click just below for proof

Even then you won't be sure.

We live in the world's most upscale subdivision, in ur-country.com (scroll down to "Citizens").

Bill's address is row 19, column 19; me, I chose to move in kitty-corner from him, at row 20, column 20 (above).

Already he's been by to borrow a cup of sugar.

Friendly guy.

Dennis Ringwood, the grand panjandrum of ur-country.com, emailed me late yesterday afternoon as follows:

Hey Joe,

Came across your blog and wanted to tell you about the Citizen links on
www.ur-country.com.

There is a current promotion for free links (for active countries) and it would be great to see you and other fellow bloggers there.

Best regards
Dennis Ringwood

Hey, make me an offer I can't refuse.

I sent him my now-iconic bookofjoe NanoIcon™ (below)

to put up at 20-20 and before you could say Bob's your uncle there it was near Bill's.

Tell you what — with RuleTheWorld last week and now this it looks like we're finally lighting this firecracker.

I wonder if Bill's gonna return the favor and see about acquiring property near me up by my Arctic Circle digs.

Better bring your mittens, is all I've got to say.

w00t!
