Attention Mystery Woman...

Pursuing my traffic logs yesterday, I noticed that someone visited my site from http://www.gavinhall.org/tag/dating/. Once on my blog, they viewed four pages and clicked off on a link to Celly's blog.

From this we can deduct a few things. Whoever it was probably knows that we are all members of an Orlando street gang. We can also assume that they were prompted, most likely out of interest, to click on the "dating" tag on Gavin's blog. And seriously, why not? He might have a goofy cheerful scoobie doo like laugh and suffer from a severe nervous twitch in his leg, but damn it, he's tall.

Anyway, whoever you are Mystery woman, I see your stalking, and raise you technology. My friend needs a lady, and well, I'm a better geek than I am a wing man. So.. here we go.

I started poking around their hostname. Coming from a Sprint DSL connection, it's safe to geolocate the IP address and get the Latitude/Longitude (cable modems are pretty much impossible). Armed with the coordinates 28.5037, -81.3306, we can see that the building is off of S. Conway in Orlando. Looks to be between the Roy and Harmony cross streets. Searching random businesses in that area identifies a few addresses, but nothing great.

Mapping addresses to coordinates is pretty easy to do, but the other way isn't something I know a free resource for. I pulled up Zillow and searched for the area and pulled up a bunch of home addresses. If Google is right in its placement, the building resides next to 4421 Harmony Lane. Google could be off, and that could be the actual address, especially since the visitor came in at approximately 7:30am. Either it's an early morning at the office (what's open early in a building like that? coffee shop, dentist office, all hours b.y.o.b. club), or they woke up from a dream and ran to gavin's blog. A tad bit creepy, but.. at this point, who the hell am I to talk?

Armed with an solid address, even if approximate, I went to the Orange County Appraisers office site and ran a search. From there, manually selecting the parcel next door shows an address of 3221 S CONWAY RD. Searching google maps for businesses located at that address shows.... a bunch of dentist offices.. hah!

Interesting, indeed. Gavin does have amazing teeth, as I'm sure you know, mystery woman. I am prepared to offer a trade -- one date with Gavin for a free dental cleaning for me and my street gang, Gavin included.

E-mail me to arrange the drop off. I'll put him in a potato sack... Make that, two potato sacks.
