… and were horrified to find out what the main, original slang meaning of the term was (it involves dipping one’s “nads” in their partner’s mouth, or slapping them against someone else’s face to prove a point about dominance). Here’s the best (and longest) definition at Urban Dictionary; this link was making the rounds at an event Cafe Wellstone was running tonight to raise funds for charity: Urban Dictionary: teabagger Interestingly, teabaggers uphold an immoral, morbidly obese, twice divorced, draft-dodging, college dropout and known drug addict as their de facto leader, and are even known to advocate burning books.

Check out this fun Second Life Machinima by Tensai Hilra and TotalLunar Eclipse! As it happens, I was there, but this appears to show only Tensai and TotalLunar, perhaps just before the party. I’m so glad I went to this event; it was an amazing dreamlike experience – especially the “going down the rabbit hole” part. Except that I fell off the platform the first time, and missed the fancy stairs completely! So I went back and did it again, more slowly so I could watch the odd things fly past in the rabbit hole. My business partner Dhughan lives…

Even I am happy about this: New Orleans wins the Super Bowl 31 – 17 against the Colts, best remembered as the guys that snuck out of town in the dead of night. Got beads? Want some virtual ones? Check out my virtual store online or inworld in Tintafel. Yes, yes, I’m pimpin mah beadz, but at least the setting is appropriate. Mardi Gras! It’s this Tuesday – are you ready to party in New Orleans (or New Toulouse)? It’s time to earn your beads and go wild, girls and boys! You can give or gift these beads to friends,…

Oh good, the blog-tweet thingy is working. 45 minutes on RL exercise bike at RL club, #completed Next: shoe store, then home. # Oh good. My mouse just died, and the grim silence as my in-house geek works on the computer worries me. # RT @MoodyLoner "RT @DanaHoule: I. Don't. Fucking. Care. If. A. Bill. Is. Bipartisan. Neither do voters. Just pass fucking bills." # @ordinal Wish someone would tell that to Shazam and a number of other sites. I may have to smack WP's Twittertools with a stick. in reply to ordinal # Not unlike what i plan in…

I created another Pacific Northwest Coast-style bracelet, photographed it, embellished the image with my gimpy GIMP skillz, added it to my otherwise empty XStreetSL inventory, and got the thing listed. #Completed I’m not sure if it depicts an Eagle or a Raven, but I think the Raven in PNW Indian art usually has a bluntly pointed beak, and this one looks more like a raptor’s hooked schnozz. It’s for sale on XStreetSL, it’s in a box in my mostly-empty shop inworld, and it’s also in a vendor that I just got working, that was given out in an excellent “Sell…

@Ordinal’s announcement has caused a stir of sympathy and dismay amongst the #SecondLife #Twitterati. It distresses yet comforts me to know that even the most accomplished and celebrated builders struggle with completion issues, ennui, and an overriding desire to chuck it all into the outer darkness and do something, ANYthing else for a while. I wish Ordinal Malaprop a rejuvinating break, and hope for a very speedy return. That said, I’ve now wasted about two months since my belated burst of builder’s mania, with a mostly finished house on bare land, plus an empty shop building on another plot of…

'Ullo! Mahbraaain hurrrrts! #GumbyTuesday #fb # My alt made a sale, he's insufferably chuffed about it. Need to get my own stuff made, still struggling with GIMP for textures, logos. #

Was it too easy to import and redirect my old Blogger blog to my new self-hosted WordPress blog? Yes, suspiciously so. I didn’t even have time to shout “Wish me luck, I’m off to crash the server,” because… well, it’s all done. Weird how technology works how it’s supposed to work. Tonight, I hung out watching the SOTU speech with friends at Cafe Wellstone, but then got a notice of a building class, so I tore off, built a cute little Asian cabinet (it looks vaguely retro 70’s, pix later), and then promptly lost the second project, a glass candy…

Thanks to my partner Rock, I naow has a domain of which I am Queen, Empress, and Chief Prim-Twister. As my chum Mist might well say, “fear teh wahine neko. FEAR HER.” Now to avoid the temptation: a very large parcel has suddenly gone up for sale in front of my shabby little adobe dwelling, for about $150.00 real USD American ducats. Now I get to watch the neighbors move in (and I hope they’re nice and not naked all the time, because teh smexy should never be boring). I used to have a view of the leftover furniture and…

Okay, this is really, really… weird. I was in a class at Caledon Oxbridge and realized that it was a little more basic than I needed (though it was about making them, it was actually about finding and wearing clothes and attachments). So on a whim, I whipped out my iPhone and tried to log in my alt to see what would happen (yes, I know it’s possible to log in with multiple computers and laptops, but this… this is an iPhone, people). And… succeeded. But in a truly odd way. From Northwest Indian Images He’s a wizened little boy…
