While all the cool celebrities are busy going to the hottest clubs in Haaalywood just so they can get on TMZ, your humble game show host is at home with his fiance playing Second Life and watching Fiddler On The Roof. They just finished Tevye’s Dream. Now they’re at the wedding singing Sunrise, Sunset. I think I’m going to cry. Why didn’t she marry the butcher? The poor, poor, butcher? Yes, dance promise breaker! Dance and be damned!
But, now we're so inspired by the dance number at the wedding that my fiance and I have decided that after we finally sign up for swing dancing lessons and then salsa lessons, we'll take Jewish line-dancing lessons. What's done is done! Five chickens!
Anyway... Second Life. People build the most amazing things there. Like this fantastically creative woman (man?) Pandora Wigglesworth. (Who knows what her/his real name is? Everyone is anonymous on Second Life including me). She has a store called Curio Obscura (above). It's this crazy steam punk Chitty Chitty Bang Bang place that's built on the back of a crab girl in a top hat.
Inside are things for sale that I would kill to have in real life: A propeller that fits in your mouth and allows you to fly, a clockwork body and brain, a robot pillow fight machine, a hand-held X-Ray machine and Anywhere Doors. Anywhere Doors let you just point to a wall and make a door that you can disappear through. Man, have I needed that only about a million times in my life.
Uh oh, Tevye just had the Tsar's dudes break up his daughter's wedding. Entr'acte, which is Jewish for "Intermission". Get him in trouble at the end of the first act. Get him out of trouble by the end of the second. That's the sit-com golden rule.
I have a friend who thinks being on Second Life makes me somehow less of a man because all I do is shop and look for cool places like Curio Obscura. He plays World Of Warcraft. As he said to me in an email, "I go on quests and kill monsters all day. What do you do, change your shirt?" Ooooh. Good burn. Yeah, you're more normal than I am.
Speaking of normal. I'm going to quit blogging now, put on my clockwork head and play some Zyngo. In Second Life. While eating Doritos and watching the world's greatest Jewish musical.
OMG... now the other dude wants to marry his daughter without permission! It's the same movie I just saw in the first half! Just like Sin City. The same story over and over and they call it a movie. Kee-rist.
If I were a rich man, I would buy a clockwork brain because mine is running slow. In the meantime, I am busy working to create the Vilnius Jewish Library in Lithuania designed to promote tolerance and acceptance. However, first I need to go change my shirt!
ReplyDeleteHilarious. Click on Wyman's name and see his profile. He really is building a Jewish Library in Lithuania.
ReplyDeleteI have to stop playing zyngo...
ReplyDeleteHow about The Sims 3? Do you play it as well?
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if you'll ever gonna be in the next Sims 3 expansion packs. Has Maxis or EA contacted you lately? I remember playing the first Sims game for my PC and I had all of the packs. I always tried my best to make great parties, that you would show up, you never did.
If you ever decide to that you'd like to show your WoW friend that there is more to do in SL than shop, you can join me and a few of my Steampunk friends in SL as we have Ironclad battles (which is generally done in short scenario form each Thursday night around 7pm SLT) you give me an IM in world. We, too, like to go exploring and adventuring - and dare I say it - Shopping.
ReplyDeleteSlainte, Drew! Good luck on TPIR! And in your new venture with this blog.
Eva
You go to the trouble of plugging this magnificent stuff and then don't give teleport coordinates? Sheesh. Now I gotta go look it up myself...
ReplyDeleteI saw Fiddler was on last night, but I gave up after Cincinatti Kid. What a cast!
I'll give out SLUrls in the future. (Second LIfe URL's) Sorry! Wasn't concentrating, I was so worried about Tevya and his family.
ReplyDeleteWow, is that awesome. I may have to reinstall Second Life just to go check that out! I admit to a soft spot for Fiddler on the Roof as well--my mom loves musicals, and Fiddler is one of her favorites, so we watched it a _lot_ when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a *long* time since I went on SL! Reading about your fascination with it really makes me want to go back on though, and try and make something cool for once. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Drew...how are you still sane after watching Fiddler on the Roof? We were forced to watch that thing back in 7th grade. It made our teacher go psycho and put a chair through a bass drum in the back of the room. I actually felt kinda sorry for him (the drum, not the teacher!).
ReplyDeleteI'm more of a Sims guy myself since I've played since the beginning (starting with the first SimCity for Windows 3.1 and working my way up to Sims 3!). How similar is Second Life to The Sims series?
Tyler
Second Life v Sims... hmm... well I don't show up at your place if you throw a great party on Second Life. At least, you wouldn't recognize me. And SL is more about being creative rather than controlling a character.
ReplyDeleteAnd in SL, you can't kill your person by putting them in the pool and taking the ladder away. ;)
Thank you for the kind words, Drew! It's very flattering to be noticed by someone whose work I admire.
ReplyDeleteFiddler is a great musical and one of the only examples of popularized Yiddish scat singing.
I hope it is alright if I add that the SLURL is http://slurl.com/secondlife/Rendervisions%20Isle/170/156/77
first off - just found your blog. I am going to bookmark this so I can follow. Loved you in every project you've been in, including your current gig on TPIR.
ReplyDeleteFiddler. Soft spot for me too. Been in two seperate community theatre productions of it, both times playing Grandma Tzietle - with full whiteface stage makeup. And then had to scrub off the makeup and be back on as a regular "villager" a few minutes later so I could carry a chair around during the "wedding scene". Ah, memories.
Used to play Second Life, but lost interest after a while.
Glad to see you Liked pandoras shop! She is truely remarkable! I hope you also enjoyed our island she is on! Anyways Keep on playing SL. SL is truely a remarkable place to show off our talents!
ReplyDeletereally amazing that you found Rendervisions Isle and the wonderful shop of Pandora's. She quite an amazing person.
ReplyDeleteCherry Hotaling and I own the SIM, and Pandora is a member of our group The Art Door who the SIM was created for.
Here is the SLURL to the main SIM
seems it won't let me post a link so here is the name to look for
Rendervisions Whimsical Woods
hi Drew!
ReplyDeleteAs Eva Bellambi mentioned there is a rich culture among the Steampunk sims of SL. You may want to explore this site....
http://caerfyrrdin.org/mostlycaledon.htm
It has a large number of Steampunk and steampunk-ish links to various SL blogs such as Eva's, my own, and many more.
Musicals and line dancing?? I'm revoking your man card.
ReplyDelete...Didn't realize "Second Life" was that intriguing. Might have to check that out sometime...
ReplyDelete"Fiddler on the Roof" is a good film. I say that even though I haven't been able to watch it all the way through.
And about your showing up in "The Sims", I've actually seen a YouTube video of that happening - is your appearance in that game anywhere near related to that April Fool's episode of "The Drew Carey Show"?
And your getting dance lessons...naturally, taking your physical appearance into consideration, that sort of thing is ripe for humor.
Which reminds me...do you still do stand-up comedy, Drew?
And now I shall humbly exit.
-Daniel
*Anywhere Door appears, walks through it*
I think I can help you out with the Jewish line dancing. If you want to go really nuts, I can throw in some Balkan stuff. It's about time I actually did something with my college education.
ReplyDeleteFunny, you'd think Drew from TV would have an interesting enough First Life. But of course, First Life doesn't have clockwork brains. Yet.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you're in SL Drew! What an amazing place, full of wonder and inspiration everywhere you go. I'm a big fan of Pandora's work in SL, so it was great to see her mentioned here!
ReplyDeleteI completely forgot about you showing up in one of the first EP's for the original Sims. Wasn't that Livin' Large? And you almost got my favorite thing to do...I don't take the ladder away. I prefer to call the pizza guy and plant trees around him so he can't escape. I'm an evil bastard in that game, let me tell you! :)
ReplyDeleteI'll have to try out SL. I do like creativity. Besides, I've bored myself with building every version of Denny's on Sims 2 I can possibly think of - even the '61 version that was a part of the Sambo's chain. Yeah, I have no life! Know anyone in Hollywood looking for some random dude to host a game show? Lifelong dream here. :) lol
Tyler
Tyler! Any pics of your Denny's that are posted anywhere? Let me know in a comment and I'll check it out. :)
ReplyDeleteI watched it Saturday night, too. They should've put in one more dancing/drinking scene at the end.
ReplyDeletehey drew - if you like seeing interesting & creative places in SL, join the impossible in real life group (yes it will take up a slot & it's worth it) & check out the accompanying blog http://npirl.blogspot.com/ lots of great artists doing outrageous things.
ReplyDeletealso, come join us at show & tell in north lummerland every sunday at 2pm slt. it's a great group of insanely talented & creative smartasses from around the world. sometimes even miss pandora shows her work there. we got the mouth propeller for free when she showed it ;D
btw - curio <3 just grabbed her cake hair & the rococo hair at the hair fair, they are unbelievable. now i just need the rideable skirt XD
Hey Drew, it is possible to go on quests and kill people in Second Life too.......there are sims and groups that are dedicated to nothing but RP (roleplay) along different storylines and in every genre imagined. It's all cool. The vampires are a pain in the arse right now but it'll pass.
ReplyDeleteNext time you stop in check out the eleven continent, do a search for 'Elf Circle' or better yet 'Insane Faeries', haha. We all celebrated Elf Liberation Day yesterday. Too bad you missed it.
/Astrid Zhangsun........Greeter for Elf Circle :-)
Btw, tell your WoW friend to come to SL and I'll kick his butt......then he can tell people that he got his butt kicked by a girl named Astrid.....and you can ask him who is the better man for visiting SL.
ReplyDeleteDrew,
ReplyDeleteGlad to see a celebrity that actually understands what Second Life is all about.
I love the Anywhere Doors from Curio Obscura. I haven't bought any yet because I haven't found a use for them, but I'm sure I will at some point. Anyways, if you're inworld at any point, feel free to say hi to me. I'm Michael Cela inworld!
Drew,
ReplyDeleteI'll get out the desktop later, fire it up, and take some screenshots of a few I've done. We're remodeling my room, and I have the desktop piled away. I miss it anyway...seems like even 1 GB isn't enough to run 4 EP's even though they recommend 512 MB for 5 EP's! Just wait until I get my new computer...8 GB RAM with a Core 2 Quad. That'll be great!
And BTW, we still have a wall in this room that I haven't decided what to do with. My friends - who know how much of an obsessive fan I am of Price is Right - recommend a giant PIR logo. I think it sounds good! :)
Tyler
I used to play bass in various theaters and one musical I played for several times is Fiddler on the Roof. I also sing and act, but at the time, the bass paid the rent.
ReplyDeleteLove you, Drew and God bless you and your loved ones
How in Heckinger (it used to be a hardware store in my town, don't ask) do you have time for a soul-sucking time-consuming game like Second Life? :D
ReplyDeleteI'm a "normal" person and can't find the time for something like that. Of course, I do Sim. ;)
Drew, I love reading your blog. I for one, am blag you joined the blogosphere.
ReplyDeleteI have never watched Fiddler On The Roof, but I did watch The Frisco Kid the other night! Great Jewish-Native American line Dancing there! LOL
Congratulations Drew...the online Urban Dictionary has added the phrase "Hiking the Appalachian"...it means to cheat on one's spouse.
ReplyDeleteI have to ask...just how easy is this to do? Ever since I humiliated myself by being too much of a technodoofus to set up a myspace page, I've looked askance at new things like I'm some geezer.
ReplyDeleteHey, Drew! Got those pics up now if you want to see them:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.flickr.com/photos/39984871@N06/sets/72157620749396014/
I still think the interior would be much cooler if I could figure out how to make the ceilings vaulted like they are in the real restaurants. Let me know what you think!
Tyler
Wow. The man knows his Dennys! Pretty cool. I can taste the Super Bird just looking at it!
ReplyDeleteAnd Melissa, this blog took me about 10 minutes to set up. Blogger is easy. WordPress is supposed to be just as easy. But if you can't set up a myspace page... lol... I don't know. :)
Oh... Melissa was talking about SECOND LIFE.. duh. Sorry. Well, building like Curio Obscura does is tough. You need lots of photoshop and design background. And, getting the hang of SL takes a few days. Lots of shortcut keys to learn, how to change clothes and buy things, etc... They have a great learning center your avatar goes to first that you should take advantage of (Orientation Island), and everyone there is pretty friendly to newbies. It's free, so why not give it a shot? :)
ReplyDeletelol drew drop by junkyard blues on sl for great music and fun folks -the owners kiff and richardina are wonderful and would love to meet u -i told them u are real-up to u to prove it rofl-
ReplyDeleteGuncarver Woodget
Okay Drew, on your suggestion I've decided to try out SL. I can see where this could become trouble... :)
ReplyDeleteCurio Obscura is a fantastic shop! It sounds like you're have a great time with your SL, Drew! I think if I were in your shoes, I would love the pseudonmity/anonymity that SL can provide.
ReplyDeletemelissa, if you do decide to give SL a go, don't be afraid to ask for help! It can be a little confusing at first but many people would be happy to take a few minutes to help you get acclimated. There are some great places to get free things for new avatars, too. Look in the search for "The Gnubie Shop" and "The Free Dove." Good luck!
Hi Drew - I'm in SL too and know the creator you write about (simply amazing stuff!). If you like off the wall things, you should see the free vaudeville show "The Show Must Go On" this Saturday at 2pm & 2:50pm SL Time. From the wonder of Professor Antfarmoffski's Amazing Ant Circus to the glory of the Yak Dance Company, I think you'll be greatly amused by this unique troupe - and all for the great price of nada Lindens :)
ReplyDeleteYou can see more here: http://tsmgo.blogspot.com
Hi, Drew! I also wanted to let people who decide to try out Second Life know that Torley Lindne's tutorials are invaluable. They are on the Second Life web site here http://secondlife.com/showcase/tutorials/.
ReplyDelete(I hope it is ok to add that address here.)
Have wonderful Second Life!
I have speculated as to the celebrities who inhabit virtual worlds and MMOGs incognito to just be normal people. Thanks, Drew, for sharing your experiences!
ReplyDeletep.s. my girlfriend and I watch Whose Line? reruns nearly every other day.
Who knew you were a steampunk? I agree, Curio Obscura rocks!
ReplyDeleteThe gentlefolk of the Steamlansd are generally welcoming folk, do stop by the office for tea sometime.
ReplyDeleteThere are dozens of building contests each month, the Ironclad battles Duchess Eva mentioned, and actual social events. Oxbridge University not only has one of the best tutorials for new residents I have seen, and also holds ongoing classes for all residents for free.
Hey Drew, I just learned you were on here from a friends plurk post. Thanks for the tip on Rendervisions. Lots to see there!
ReplyDeleteHi Drew! Welcome to the steampunk side of Second Life - I love Curio Obscure (especially the Rocco Fantistico hair, which I have broken ceilings with).
ReplyDeleteCome see New Babbage sometime. Seven-sim Steampunk city bordering the Vernian Sea. Tis my home and it's amazing. :)
I'm Ceejay Writer in world, a true writer for Second Life publications and also a Burlesque dancer a few nights a week.
Have fun!
Pandora is awesome and Curio Obscura is one of the most creative brain explosions in SL -- very cool that you're a fan and are turning people onto SL with her stuff. You know the shop can breathe fire, right? Hehe: http://www.flickr.com/photos/makokungfu/3401180954/
ReplyDeleteCurio Obscura is one of the places in my photoset called EXPLORE that has pics and SLurls to some really great places for people to visit in SL (especially newbies, who seem to often stumble into ugly and/or uninteresting office park-type areas full of griefers, unfortunately). Lots of steampunk locations too -- don't miss the the floating steampunk pirate city of Armada Breakaway, the cyberpunk heights of Omega Point, the Wastelands, the twisted delights of Grim Bros, and the steampunk Daft Punk machine. Have fun! http://www.flickr.com/photos/makokungfu/sets/72157613295482466/
Drew, Pandora of Curio Obscura is indeed a talented scripter and imaginative designer. Kudos for good taste! The Anywhere Doors are cool, but there is also a similar device there (called the Portable Door Generator) that you can carry around with you, point to any prim, and create a temporary portal that allows you to walk through the wall. Useful when there is no pose ball on the other side to jump to! ;-)

Herr Carey,
ReplyDeleteFraulein Connolly was very kind to include my reading list for your perusal, but there was a small typographical error - it is http://caerfyrddin.org/mostlycaledon.htm (my staffer, the page hostess, fancies she's Welsh).
You and your readers might also enjoy the fancifully-told histories of my homeland, http://www.girlgenius.net.
Fraulein Melissa may call upon me, Zoe Connolly or Eva Bellambi at any time should she need assistance - my name is listed there as KlausWulfenbach Outlander due to an unfortunate misunderstanding at Linden Immigration.
Yrs.,
Klaus Wulfenbach, Baron
Aha. Well, nevermind! You actually MEANT the Portable Door Generator, but you said "Anywhere Door" which is a separate product and I got temporarily cornfused by the semantic. My bad! (going to slink off through a portable door now) ;-D
ReplyDeleteDrew, if you like steampunkish art too, go visit Bryn Oh's sim, Immersiva. Or IM me, and I'll take you!
ReplyDeleteDrew - rock on.

Tossing sims in the pool might be just the nudge I need to try the Sims.
ReplyDeleteyay drew!! i LOVED being in your movie and dancing with ya in my shop AND at that club, and you were so nice, lol... did you know we ever had our photo in the AVASTAR? hahahaha.
ReplyDeleteserioulsy it was a honor to be in your flick, and have you ever dance with a maxim hot 100 girl in RL??? was always curious, cuz in SL you did *wink*
yeah but there are some AMAZING things in SL and the possibilities are well, endless.
take care,

I've been in SL for a long time and I STILL love it! I am, however, worried that I've run into you in world and maybe bumped you out of my way. :-D
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my addiction known as Second Life. My real life friends think I am nut for how involved I am. Oh some other great sims: Poetik and Drowsy. So take care and have a great second life!
ReplyDeleteDrew, I am happy to see Pandora Wigglesworth on your blog. She is very creative and we are glad she is part of the Hair Fair this year because she makes whatever inspires her. She is the designer of the largest hair in Second Life, Rococo Fantastico. Complete with Zepplins, propellers and an automated ballroom.
ReplyDeleteMelissa, Natalia Zelmanov has a great guide for people just starting in Second Life
http://www.mermaiddiaries.com
Hey Drew! That is so cool that you play in SL! Tell your WOW buddy that there are plenty of places to kick butt in SL; Gor, Toxian City, Vampire sims, Medieval sims, and the aforementioned Elf stutt, to name a few...
ReplyDeleteFind a place to RP (roleplay) and you will be even MORE hooked. (errr...not that I know anything about that. heh.)
Imma gonna go around asking everyone if they are Drew Carey now. ;p
Gabby McCullough in SL

(i'm gonna blogroll you too ;p )
Pandora's creations are wonderful, and it's one reason I love Second Life. Instead of waiting for someone to make a cool thing or place, you can always try your hand at making it yourself. The rocket silo is cool too. I have one rezzed at my office.
ReplyDeleteI thank you for your geekdom.
ReplyDeleteI should warn you that Orientation Island is no more; they dump everybody onto Help Island by default now, and it's not quite as helpful. But fear not! When you sign up, click the "Choose a community" checkbox. It will give you a list of options on the second page... choose "Steampunk Victorian Caledon." It's a joint venture of Caledon and NCI (New Citizens Inc.); the former has a steampunk flavor, and the latter is the largest resident-run help group in Second Life. They provide an incredibly well-made tutorial, people there providing assistance, and dorm rooms you can use for free.
ReplyDeleteIf you've signed up by other means, you can get there using this SLURL: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Oxbridge/92/198/28
Best of luck!
It was a delight to see your video for reason.tv about Second Life, and it is a delight now to see that you're still involved in SL. Hope you don't mind that my blog now points people your way.
ReplyDeleteFor all of you who have been in Sl before and are thinking of coming back, do! There is so much to offer in this wonderful, civil, romantic, funny, artsy, dramatic, fantastic world. You just need time to find your niche. if you look for Steampunk, come to Caledon - a 19th century Victorian/Steampunk private nation that is my home for 3 1/2 years. Or check out Babbage. Another totally Steampunk 19th Century group of private sims. They are totally open to the public.. so come check us out!
ReplyDeleteHere is the SLURL for my gallery. I invite you to land and fly straight up to look over Caledon. You will be amazed at what you see.
Caledon Kintyre (135, 133, 44) and I hope you don't land in the water cuz my slurl is not working....:)
Oh wow, wait til my RL friends and family know that I share SL with Drew Carey! I regret not seeing you further any of The Sims games,they could have used someone like you in TS3!
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of things to see and do in SL, and though I love WoW, I find myself in SL more often. Slaying and questing does get frustrating after a couple of hours, and my preoccupation with SL has hindered me from leveling, while my ex boyfriends's priest is now level 60, my mage still stuck in level 8?
I don't know if you missed Rezzable's Virtual King Tut in SL, but that one was the best place I've gone to the past month. It's like being in Ancient Egypt, only that you don't get sand on your toes. Too bad King Tut is moving to Opensim, but I recommend every Rezzable build as they are fun and engaging.
...:)
We hope you continue your travels and adventures in SL! May it be drama free! :D
Pan is the best.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you've found her.

Hi Drew! Nice to see one of my favorite celebs promoting SL!! Great video on reason.tv. I spend most of my SL attending live music events, do you have a favorite SL performer? Wow..I may have "danced with Drew Carey" and not even known it..lol.
ReplyDeleteHave a great SL!! See you on the grid...
World of Warcraft is for guys who can't get girlfriends in Second Life
ReplyDeleteI can say I am now 9 days old in SL and I'm having fun exploring the worlds and finding money trees and trying to decide what I'm going to do with my life over there. Though I like the idea that you're anonymous over there, Drew, so like you I'm not going to reveal who I am or what I do.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks to everyone who've posted SL guides for newbies. They're greatly appreciated.
A friend just alerted me to your blog. I haven't mentioned it in my own blog, but in Jr. High I played the Fiddler in a production that never got past blocking. (another promising theatrical career nipped in the bud.. probably for the best)
ReplyDeleteAnyway wanted to welcome you to the blogosphere.. or more specifically the SLogosphere (the world of second life blogs)
Have fun, but don't stay up too late.. SL can do that to you..

Second Life also has a game show as well. The First Question (streaming at treet.tv) is (i believe) second life's first game show. The show's host, Pooky Amsterdam, likes to get more memorable people as contestants, and I wonder if she would like to get a real life celebrity on the show. The show tapes every Tuesday at 7:00 PM Second Life Time.
ReplyDeleteDrew, something tells me you'd love Show & Tell in Lummerland. The audience is as interesting to check out than the stuff people bring to the stage. It's on Sundays from 2pm Pacific.
ReplyDeleteYou can tell your friend that people do WoW stuff and more in Second Life. My friend does the Star Wars online game and was pleased that she could be her character in SL as well for creating and leisure. As you well know by now, it's literally what you make it. The greater virtual populace just don't realize it yet.
hahaha Drew, once upon a time we chatted on AOL after one of your online question and answers, and now here you are in SL as well. We are internet run-in buddies :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun in SL, and if you get bored I'm having an art exhibit called "Arcana", look for Savascha Navarita. :)
I was actually just about to blog about Pandora's sim when I found your blog. :-) It's true that you never know who one is behind the avie. Therefore, my golden rules of SL are...
ReplyDelete- be honest
- always remember there is a real life avie, with real life feelings behind every keyboard. Treat them all with respect.
Nice post. I feel it is my duty as a future music teacher though to let you know that Entr'acte is not a jewish term. It's used in many musical acts/theatre productions/etc. It's actually french and it means 'between the acts' (or intermission, as you said).
ReplyDeleteOH!! I love Tevye's dream. It used to scare me when i was younger, but now that I understand what a sweet selfless thing he was doing for his daughter it's so sweet.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I used to watch it with my grandfather, as well as the price is right! I still watch when I am up early. :D
Also, saw you on late night the other night! I hope I see you on rock band sometime!
There is a great jazz singer on secondlife you might want to check out (Jean Munro)I dont get on second life much anymore but always had a good time there Laterz tatmanco woodget
ReplyDeleteSweet! I play SL as well! I use to run a club and all that fun stuff, but now I hardly get on. I mostly play World Of Warcraft now.
ReplyDeleteI get bored to easily with SL. hehe
Hey! I'm so glad to hear that you play Second Life. Isn't it crazy awesome some of the stuff in there? I'm Ashleigh Dickins on there, and I suggest you check out the shop Schadenfreude (http://slschadenfreude.blogspot.com) Sounds like you'd love it. And if you ever have the urge to check out surfing in Second Life check out the SLSA (http://www.surfslsa.com) I'm currently on their board of directors. Anyway, glad to see you play! I wondered when I saw your tweet about the FCC on SL. (I'm @CarolinaAsh on twitter.) See ya around the grid, maybe, though I totally wouldn't know it's you.
ReplyDeleteAs for Melissa, hopefully some people here have helped you out. You definitely should check out
The Gnubie Store (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Indigo/199/63/38)
Hey Drew, I'm glad to see you here on Second Life, I've been on SL for almost 2 years now, lots of good friends here, and I dragged my rl GF into sl as well, we're both big fans of ya
ReplyDeleteBeing youre a former Marine, you should be interested to know there is a HUGE group for Veterans and active duty members of the US military. We have an island and everything.
Come on down and join the group, our island is here:

Hi Drew!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to know you play Second Life. I wonder if you still play until now. You might be interested in visiting an 1800's/victorian community. I live in one which is connected to 42 sims. (A lot to explore) I would love to provide you more information and show you around. A lot of fun activities you might be interested in. Do leave me a message, my name in SL is Chinitadoll Blaisdale. Happy Holidays!

Hi Drew! Curio Obscura is a classic, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteAdmit it: you covet that Rococco Fantastico hair... or you've owned it for years and play with it constantly.
It was used as a goad for a recent RFL fundraiser in Steelhead; we were goaded and we made goal. That thing practically crashes the sim when the music and dancing start.
Hey Drew! I've been in SL since 05 and yes I have to admit that Curio Obscura is one of my fave spots to shop for one of my avies(I have 14). Glad to see another Ohioan that enjoys SL as much as me.(Columbus ovah heyah!)
ReplyDelete
