I didn't know if it had been done in the past or not but ALOT of people were posting different questions about where's this and where's that. so I wanted to put that post up so it can be knownst to all. I got more but I was in sort of a hurry so I only posted a few, I will make another one but will post my favorites next time. Does ANYONE have anything they would like to add to this, please share.
