SLife on Mars
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Today I was told “Oh my God, you’re just like Dean Winchester from Supernatural!” That coming from my little SL brother, Shane Wildmist, after he saw I was not only familiar with the classic rock bands he was discovering, but that I owned their albums.

Nahm nahm nahm….
BY STAFF WRITER JELLIE ARROWMINT Oh my goodness! These Donut pillow seats look good enough to eat! I have the pink one and have pondered many a time about sinking my teeth in, but it’s probably not a good idea! These delightful looking objects are for sale at Akeyo and are 350L for just 2 [...]

Sassy Schoolgirls
BY CHIEF STAFF WRITER PAYPABAK WRITER After writing about the High School of the Dead and I was reminded of a great, though naughty, store where you can get perfect costumes for roleplaying in there.

DJs Wanted (Impromptu)
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE I’ve been giving this idea some thought since I wrote about The Killing Moon last week. I wanted to see what kind of interest I got before I did anything, and I’m happy to say that so far the input has been positive. However, I realize that the Killing Moon pub [...]
Pink Sugah Shapes
BY WRITER LACEWING MESMERISER My friend Tara has recently opened a shop catering to people who don’t want to look like Amazons, and prefer to be normal height.

Jellie’s Gestures
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Jellie Arrowmint is known for a few things. 1. She’s the assistant manager for the indie club AAi. 2. She’s little and cute, happy and friendly. 3.

Doing Good Deeds in SL
BY CHIEF STAFF WRITER PAYPABAK WRITER So, I was dancing at the Savoy a few weeks ago, with Sassy and Vanni. The host for the evening, Nathaniel something or other was chatting me up and I “perved” his profile and noticed Boy Scouts of SL. Being a member of a Scout family, who hold the [...]

10L Skin
BY STAFF WRITER JELLIE ARROWMINT Yes ladies and gentlemen (and Graz) this is correct – 10L skin! I’ve been on a mission of late to find another skin as I’ve had the current one since my noob days, and although it’s not bad, I felt it was time to shed that one and go for [...]
The Killing Moon – More Than a Hangout?
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE When I put the Killing Moon pub into Moonletters Town, Penny Lane, I intended it to be a place people could hang out with friends in the neighborhood. I didn’t intend to hold regular events, mainly because most people I know are involved with other clubs. Another reason is that I [...]
Wicked!
BY CHIEF STAFF WRITER PAYPABAK WRITER I was chatting up a friend who’s been off the grid for awhile and looking through her profile picks. She’s obviously a fan of someone named Kikiri Tuqiri, so I jump on a pick and land at Wicked Beauty Light Shows. I run into Kiki and find out my [...]
Happy Valentines Day
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Hi gang. I meant to have a gift out for you for Valentines Day, but the present I purchased gave me the scripts inside rather than the present itself. Waiting to hear back from the creator, so hopefully can get it to you before the day is out. In the mean [...]

The Wall in SL
BY CHIEF STAFF WRITER PAYPABAK WRITER Sometimes a very simple concept can be very powerful. The Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial Wall is one of those concepts whose power lies in the precise execution of a simple concept.

Jeux Sans Frontières
BY STAFF WRITER FERAL MOSSRIDER Many years ago, on UK TV, there was a show called ‘It’s a Knockout’ – teams would compete against each other in ridiculous games and equally ridiculous costumes just for the glory of winning. Winning teams would have the dubious honour of representing Great Britain in the international version: Jeux [...]

The Axis of Life: TRAUM Revisited
BY CHIEF STAFF WRITER PAYPABAK WRITER I wrote about Something TRAUMatic more than two years ago and it delighted my heart to see Renn Yifu is still in business!

Standing on My Head
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE These days, with the implementation of Second Life viewers that give sim-wide radar and an ability to “teleport to” a person, privacy in Second Life is becoming increasingly difficult. Ok, I’m only half complaining. As a sim manager I like being able to see everyone in it. This is helpful in [...]

Zombie Apocalypse
BY CHIEF STAFF WRITER PAYPABAK WRITER My article on hunting rattled a landmark from a reader, and who could resist visiting a place called Highschool of the Dead?

Are You Listening?
BY STAFF WRITER FERAL MOSSRIDER Linden Lab has made some deeply unpopular decisions of late – yes, this is my own opinion, but a casual trawl through any Second Life related blogs and forums, even the conversations you have with residents in-world will reveal an extremely high degree of disenchantment with our Linden lords and [...]
