Contacting Me
Hi everyone. The next couple of week I’ll be busy in first life. I should have internet access to check emails, but I’ll be travelling around, so access to the virtual world will depend on how reliable the wi-fi is where I’m staying. Penny Lane Residents: Tier can be sent to me even if I’m [...]
Forgetting To Be Human
Last night I had two people try to chat me up within half an hour, and one fellow I’d never met before sent a private message to say how hot my avatar looked. Being in SL for over five years has changed me a bit, I guess. I’ve grown accustomed to mindless chat up lines [...]
SL Celibacy Group
I once knew someone with a friend who joined a celibacy group in Second Life, something apparently for people who did not want to do “teh sex” in the virtual world. All well and good (not wanting to do sex I mean) but I found it humorous that someone would actually make a public group [...]
Bi-Annual Cart Sale
Huge cart sale. 85 Designers selling items of all kinds at 10L or less on the street. Need I say more? On the Web: Full list of Designers Cart Sale inworld: The Wash
Dance Animations
A reader recently asked for locations to buy good dance animations, so thought I’d list a few. I’m always looking for new dances, so if anyone wants to suggest a place not on my list please feel to chime in. Studio4D Dance Animations: Loads of dances to choose from here. Creator of CWALK, better known [...]
Motorcycles at Penny Lane
As many of you know if you visit Moonletters you’ll see signs scattered throughout the town with a picture of a scooter on them. If you click the sign it gives you a scooter to ride which you can explore Penny Lane with. (My friends and I use them for races.) But what if you [...]
50L Clothes & Skin
I was going through my old landmarks and found one for 5th & Oxford. The sign says they’re having a closing down sale. Everything is available for 50L; skin, bathing suits, lingerie, and some stuff for guys. Visit Inworld: 5th & Oxford
We are the Mods
I’ll be DJing at Dugi’s Soul Mods tonight at 1pm SLT (9pm UK) playing mod, 60′s, motown, ska, and soul. You’ll also hear the usual favourites like The Kinks, The Who, and Small Faces. Bring your scooter if you have one, and if you’re a woman who needs a dress try Subculture on the Markeplace. [...]
Expensive Dogs
Many of you know that I really enjoy Second Life animals, the non-breeding kind that is, and in first life dogs are my favourite. Well, back in January 2009 I wrote about an SL dog that came running up to my friend and I as if he had his own personality. I thought “I want [...]
US Holocaust Memorial Museum
Not long ago I watched a group of young people on tv having a conversation. Someone brought up World War 2 and it looked like they were about to have a serious discussion of history. Before they could get into it, however, a girl of about twenty threw her hands in the air and said [...]
Paul Shops at Subculture
I get a variety of people in my store, but today one of the Beatles popped in. haha
Dugi Rubble This Week’s Winner
Riding Zorro the bull at Moonletters town has been a regular past time for some people, and even though all you do is “sit” on the bull there’s often a feeling of friendly competition anyway. The highest score on Friday wins a prize, and I’ve given out everything from Mini Cooper cars, plantpets, and furniture [...]
Mesh Clothes For People With No “Back”
I know for sure that Sir Mixalot did not design the standard sizing for rigged mesh skirts and dresses in Second Life. In order to fit into them you must either be Kate Moss’ skinnier sister, or you wear an alpha layer to hide the bits that poke out. What were they thinking when they [...]
Arctic Greenhouse
I have a big love for flowers, but am choosy about them in SL. I dislike the ones that look like cardboard, and avoid areas with ugly plants for much the same reason I avoid clubs with bad music. Good news. I found a lovely place called Arctic Greenhouse where no cardboard plants could be [...]
iON Scooter-U
Just got a new scooter, and am quite pleased with it. It looks great, is copyable, and just 29 prims. You also have a choice of 6 colours (I like red). Scooter sells for 320L on the marketplace. See more specs: iON Scooter-U
Arcadia
The Arcadia Asylum Recovery group doesn’t seem to exist any more, but I found a place hosting some of her builds. For anyone interested, all the goodies here are free. Visit Inworld: Aley & Arcadia’s Living collection and freebie center
Topics to Avoid at a Party
The world is a serious place. We have war, famine, persecution, bad politics, you name it. Should we turn a blind eye to these things and never discuss them? Of course not. Ideally we will get involved somehow to make our world a better place if we can. If we are limited in what we [...]
Let’s Get Together
I have to admit, my mind has been on other stuff lately. I’ve been thinking of first life mostly, and when I’ve been inworld I’ve been occupied with things other than writing. So bear with me if you just get a short snippet here and there while I sort my brain out. Have no idea [...]
Graz Firecaster Wins
This week Graz Firecaster got high score riding Zorro the Bull. Congratulations Graz! Your prize has been sent. Visit Inworld: Moonletters Town
The Sky
Having trouble sleeping so moved from the bed to the couch. When that didn’t help I decided to turn on the computer and log into Second Life (it’s 4:30am as I type this). One thing stands out to me. The sky in Moonletters town looks different! It has an ethereal quality to it, probably because [...]
Slate’s Scooters
I’ve been moving things around in Moonletters town, so apologies to those arriving underwater or in some unknown building when you teleport in. I try to keep the main locations the same, but every now and then I make a few changes. One thing you’ll find in a different location is Slate’s Scooter Emporium. Thought [...]
My Friends
I just want to say how fortunate I feel to have the friends I do. It takes me a while, sometimes years, to let my guard down enough to think “This person is a true friend, and I really care about them” but I do feel that way about some people. Time can fly in [...]
Little Stone Church
I’ve been taking a break from making clothes this last week to work on building other stuff. Here’s something I recently made. I used the church in Moonletters before as a guide for some of the dimensions because I wanted it to fit in the same spot. I also made pews, but took the easy [...]
I’ve Been Building
Aside from hanging out with friends, when I’m in Second Life I’m usually making clothes. Recently someone noticed Subculture has expanded, and they wondered how I managed to come out with so many new dresses. The answer is simple: I have a lot of time on my hands! This will probably change in the near [...]
Slate Back in the Game
Look out all you bull riders. Slate McLeod is back in the game of riding Zorro. He has gotten high score this week, and will be given his mystery prize tonight. Congratulations Slate! Visit Inworld: Zorro the Bull
Soul Mods Tonight
I’ll be DJing at Soul Mods tonight at 1pm Second Life time (9pm UK time). Come join the mods for great music, banter, and the usual insanity. “We are the mods! We are the mods! We are the mods!” Visit Inworld: Dugi’s Soul Mods
