"Foster's. Australian for beer."

Actually it's Australian for Budweiser, not beer.

In Ireland, it's not called Budweiser. They call it ButtWidener.

Did you buy that one?

We didn't buy the house or the joke. It was a cute prank.

Probably those pesky teenagers with a bag of chalk.

During the B-29 raids on Japan in WWII the Japanese would draw chalk outlines of B-29s, seemingly trailing smoke from one or more engines, onto fields, then surround those fields with AAA batteries. Goal was to lure other B-29s down to provide assistance to their "stricken" comrade, then shoot them down.

Using the long and lat from your image, Microsoft’s Virtual Earth shows nothing there but scrub.

Admittedly, the resolution is poor, but something 120 feet long would show up.
