  • Heck moved to PORNO CONTINENT!
    Yes, I moved my beloved (by about 8 people) Second Life club to a fantastic parcel of land on Zindra, Second Life’s new adults-only continent. The build’s done. Formal grand opening soon. In the meantime, bring on the pr0n.

  • Free Music Program Continues Next Week
    Yes, that’s kind of like non-news in a way, but I don’t have time to post something before the holiday weekend, so we’ll get to it sometime after Saturday. In the meantime, some stats:

    So, the exposure appears to be reasonably solid so far, and feedback from people I’ve talked to has been solid as well. Donations are still quiet, but I’m cool with that. The button’s below if you’re feeling frisky. More stats next month, and another free song next week.




  • I’ve been thinking about the movie “Trading Places” a lot today. Specifically, the scenes toward the end with the baggage clerks (Al Franken and Tom Davis) arguing over who gets to drive the luggage cart next (though the late Stephen Stucker comes to mind in their scenes, too). Then, the words “Senator Al Franken” appear in my head, and for a moment, I become very proud of the world that I live in. Then I start laughing about the gorilla.

  • I may be off the grid for a good portion of the rest of this week. Stay black, Happy Canada Day, and for those of you in Senator Al Franken’s home country, Happy Blowing Shit Up Day. Be safe out there, but not so safe that it keeps you from firing Roman Candles out of your butt. Just make sure you light the right end.
