JJ's Pictures From The Pool Party

My sweet brother JJ Goodman has published these great pictures from yesterdays pool party of F*c*book. With his kind permission I post them here also.

Tomais and I would like to thank everyone who was there for making it such a great time. We are aware that some of you could not stay long because of the lag, but thanks for trying.

We would also like to thank our friends DJ Kahvy and his host Garrett, a.k.a. The Smith Boys, for helping us in making this a wonderful party. Thanks also to my brother Dejerrity Mycron for proving "Top Security" at the event, despite constant crashing.

We thank all of you for your generous donations to The Ali Forney Center (post on proceeds and forwarding to AFC to follow)

I wholeheartedly support this message that was posted on Google+ by my hubby Tomais today!

Thank you to our friends  Kip Ashbourne and +Chaz Longstaff of Blue Balls for donating the party favors. You guys are awesome!

Thank you also to our friends Rylan Sirnah for supplying great entertainment for two hours and to Nikolai Warden for giving everyone at the party a fish fetish for life (Yeah, yeah, I actually do know that dolphins are mammals even though they live in the sea...)

Finally but not least, thank you so much to all the generous donors and to the wonderful and imaginative guests! I love you guys, thank you so much for helping out. I transferred USD 145.17 to the +Ali Forney Center on behalf of Tomais and Dej.

The Transfer of Donations from the Rezday Bash

For reasons that will become apparent by my next post I will not blog much today.

However, I wished to report on the transfer of the donations to the Ali Forney Center that were made at the Dej & Tomais Rezday Bash without delay.

The guests at the party were extremely generous and the final amount of the donations were the fabulous sum of L$36.000.
I got the conversion rate from L$ to US$ on the SecondLife website.
That exact amount was then immediately, on behalf of the rezday boys, donated to the Ali Forney Center on it's website after which I received the following receipt (I have redacted my first life name and exact address).

Roasting Marshmallows

Tomais and I taking it easy at the camp site, roasting marshmallows and talking about which charity to support at the upcoming Duo Rezday Bash. I think we - after consulting with the other rezboy Dej - have decided on the Ali Forney Center.

The Ali Forney Center (AFC), are making a difference by rescuing LGBTQ kids from the dangers of the streets and placing them into safe, homelike environments.
