Second Life

I was IMing the people who said they want to participate in the photographers' expo I'm having - reminding those who hadn't yet sent me their things that I needed it. I talked to one woman who said she was in Houston getting ready for the hurricane. Things are rough. The disruption to the weather is going to cause, so they say, not an increase in the number of hurricanes but an increase in the hurricanes' power.

I have been giddy on the SL forum lately, for some reason. I made this and posted it:

It's a paper model of a plywood cube prim - a basic shape that is one of many we use to build everything in Second Life. The primitives are the cylinder, sphere, torus, etc., and with the building tools we shape and texture them into... hair, houses, spaceships, robots, shoes, animals, planets, trees, guns, ships, furniture, motorcycles, belly-button rings, steampunk accessories, Darth Vader-esque masks, flowers, bicycles, bondage devices, mailboxes, parachutes, Eiffel Tower, necklaces, submarines, skyboxes, etc. Amazing! Also fun. This sounds like a commercial -- so if you want to try Second Life - and it's free now, to join, go to Second Life
and tell them Osprey Therian referred you.
