Aimee’s Bloomers

That guy Mark Wallace is at it again, this time in the pages of The Escapist, where it seems he’s managed to write an entire article about Aimee Weber’s panties. You might not be able to hold Aimee’s panties in your hand (as much as you might like to), but that’s not the point. You’re [...]

Conned!

In the good sense of “conned,” as in there is going to be an SL Con (convention) in New York City this coming Oct. 8-9. Actually, the 8th is just a party, and the 9th will be a hangover filled meeting with all of your favorite Lindens, FICians, and best of all: a talk by [...]

Gravity Space Station Returns

Gravity Space Station was one of the most popular clubs to ever grace the face of SecondLife when it first opened last November, and stayed open for approximately 9 weeks. Yesterday, it was re-opened in Nyna Slate’s Dragon Moon sim for a 3 day birthday bash for the Bedazzle team. Many know Bedazzle as the [...]

Betrayed! Lindens Phuck Gaming Open Market!

My thanks go out to Marilyn Murphy, the publisher of Players Magazine for [...]

Shape up!

When I’m in game, people often ask me how I am able to keep my avatar in peak form, and whether my RL free weight ripped and pilates tuned body contributes to my outgoing and frankly irresistable virtual personality. The answer, of course, is yes. A healthy real life contributes to a healthy virtual life, [...]

Bringing the Fight Against Cancer to Second Life

The New York Times has an article today about the Second Life Relay for Life that’s being put together by Jade Lily and SnoopyBROWN Zamboni to benefit the American Cancer Society. The benefit is a week away, August 27-28, so save the date.

Invasion of the Virtual Body Snatchers

Most sorry for the delay in reporting this, but I was up at the Herald duck blind in Canada when the story broke and only just found it. Many of you will recall Chipsen Queso’s highly positive review of Asri Falcone’s fashion show. Now it seems that her account was hijacked and another mystery typist [...]
