Garrett & His Ass

My friend Garrett is strutting about in the new male mesh body from Belleza (The Jake). It has a delicious ass, but here is an instruction if Garrett should ask you about it.

Five Naked Guys In A Pool x 2 (NSFW)

I was hanging out with Tomais, JJ, Wayne and Garrett today and we ended up in the pool at Wayne's & JJ's home.

This is my snapshot from the event.

Thank You, Board & Volunteers of Second Pride 2017

The fountain and the globe

I have just finished reading LLedge Eames closing statement for the 2017 Second Pride Festival. It begins like this (For the complete statement please go to The Second Pride website (url)):

"Thank you for an amazing 2017 Second Pride Festival!

As the sun sets on yet another wildly successful and my last Second Pride Festival season. I’d like to take a moment to say some thank yous. I am so grateful for this years outpouring of participation not to mention I had the pleasure of working with some of the most amazing talents from across the grid.

Our 2016 – 2017 Second Pride Board. Jak Calcutt with his outstanding builds and designs, creating a feast for our eyes, Marge Beaumont for her behind the scenes accounting, Tootsie Nootan and her security team (Levi & Kit) keeping us all safe, and Viktor Sandman for all his patience scheduling and wrangling our performers. To our volunteers. Kahvy & Garrett Smith for undertaking and creating some fantastic social media buzz along with all those bloggers. Lee McKay and his webmaster skills that put us back online."

The shopping mall

After thanking the sponsors, vendors, performers and others that contributed to making this one of the best festivals ever, he goes on to thank the attendants and then finishes

"On more than one occasion I was greeted by complete strangers and then thanked for providing them with such a true and wonderful pride experience. It was comments like that and many more that told me we had hit our mark. I can’t begin to thank this team enough. You ALL really outdid yourself and should be proud of all you accomplished.

As I mentioned earlier this is my last year as Chairman. It has been such an honor to be involved in this organization. As much as I am ready to step down, I will miss it and all the nuances. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to bring my hope and joy to you all through this wonderful outlet."

The Japanese Garden, a permanent exhibition

Well, I would in turn like to thank the board of Second Pride for - yet another - amazing and enjoyable festival. This Second Pride festival is up there among my top three all-time favorites since I first started going to Pride in SecondLife in 2008.

I can hardly imagine all the hard work and dedication our board and the volunteers put in to this venture - and all the work they did the rest of the year - for the LGBT+ community in Second Life. 

It is even harder for me to understand why the boards dedicated work throughout the year has sometimes been met by criticism by fringes of the community, especially those who do not lift a finger or support the efforts in any way whatsoever. 

The memorial chapel

Second Pride must exist first and foremost for the LGBT+ residents in SecondLife, to be an inworld presence, to offer support to other smaller LGBT+ organizations, and to represent our community to the surrounding community and to Linden Lab. All else must, in my not so humble opinion, be secondary to that.

I am saddened that the present board say they doesn't wish to continue, although I do understand their position. Hopefully some of them can be persuaded to continue, or at to return after some rest and relaxation from these responsibilities. 

My deepest gratitude, again, goes to the board of 2016-2017 for a job well done!

Sponsored Event: The Sunday Tea Dance

Second Pride Festival, Sunday June 25

Poster by Kahvy Smith

Another day loaded with events. I would like to direct your attention especially towards two events.

Firstly there is The Apple Fall Party at 10 AM SLT with DJ Kess and host Divos. The press release from Second Pride promises that there will be giveaways and also hints at the possibility that Apple Fall himself may attend.

As the amazing Apple Falls indubitably biggest fan in SecondLife I am going to make certain to be there for the chance to meet him close up and to get some of his freebies.

Secondly there is the Sunday Tea Dance with DJ McKay and host Garrett at 12 PM. This event is sponsored by Bock in SecondLife. I hope you will enjoy it! (If you don't have a Flat Bock 2017 already, I am certainly going to give them out sometime during this event...)

Take me to the Second Pride Festival sim! (SLurl).

Sponsored Event: The McMillan Ball

Poster by Kahvy Smith

Tonight's the night, you have waited for a whole year. It's time again for The McMillan Ball, a formal dance at Second Pride. Tartan's are highly encouraged for this event.

Ballroom dancing until your feet fall off to music by DJ Kahvy Smith and charming hosting by Garrett Smith.

This event is sponsored by Bock in SecondLife.

Happy 10th Rezday, Kahvy!

Mr. Kahvy Smith, nee Sands, is my oldest existing friend in SecondLife.

Kahvy (left) with his husband Garrett

Although I had the honor of sharing my decade-rezday bash with him on March 18th, today is his actual 10th rezday!

Happy rezday, my very-very old friend, and I hope to be with you still when they pull the plugs to SecondLife in San Francisco.

I am going to include a message I sent to him on his 34th birthday (June 9, 2015), when he had complained to me that he then only "had another year left of being a young man".

"Kahvy, my dear friend,

Age is but a number, but always remember that ageing is mandatory but growing old is optional. You need not worry about being 35 in less than a year, because you actually have six more years until you are "old" as the official age of becoming old in the straight culture is 40.

However, on the other hand in the gay culture, you have already been old since you turned 30 as that is the official age for turning old among us gays. Enjoy the rest of your life as an old queer and get the f-u-c-k over it!

Many happy birthday wishes, my dear old friend!"

Lounging with Ms Lucretia

When I was dancing naked at The Sunday Tea Party at Steamworkz with DJ Lee McKay and host Garrett, I happened to get a teleport and mistakenly - before I got dressed - clicked it.

The first thing I heard when I landed in my friend Ms Lucy's backyard was her shouting "Put your clothes on!", or something to that effect. 

Ms Lucy has a very commanding presence indeed, although she claims to be of very humble, meek and mild Quaker origin who just happens to take great pleasure in pinching men's luscious butts.

As I have a God given bouncy and delightful butt, that I made myself, I am eternally assaulted when I least suspect it. I accuse her of being a spoiled, pampered and willful Jewish princess instead. She doesn't like that one bit, but do I care, really?

No, I most certainly don't. Not when she calls me "her Swedish Meatball".

Ms Lucy has a homestead together with her first life friend Nikolai Warden. They have apparently known each other since they were both in diapers and Ms Lucy used to defend him against kindergarten bullies.

The two have really created a wonderful home together on the homestead.

I also got to see Ms Lucy's updated look. To me it looks like a breathtakingly stunning African-American-Oriental blend. Her first life brother says, she looks like a famous heterosexual female porn-star named Skye Diamond, never heard of her or seen any of her work so I cannot say if it's true or not.

As it was rather late already when I got the teleport, we had a leisurely talk about non-important things, before it was time for me to logoff.

Oh, What An Amazing Party!

That was one helluva a party we had last night, to celebrate Kahvy and my tenth rezdays.

I would like to thank Garrett and Tomais for organizing it, Lee McKay for supplying us with great music and everyone who turned up for giving us the pleasure of their company at this momentous time in Kahvy's and my own SecondLife.

So, to be quite honest, Kahvy is a snarky little bitch sometimes, but then again so am I! I have known him for some 9,5 years and he is my oldest remaining friend in SecondLife. We are well-suited to each other and there is no one else I would rather celebrate my anniversary of a decade in SecondLife with.

Here are some pictures from the party supplied by my loving brother JJ Goodman. Please enjoy!

 

For many more pictures please visit my brother JJ Goodman's timeline on Facebook and check out the pictures in his album from the party.

Thanks everyone for making this a wonderful time! As my darling Tomais said, "How many other people can say that Madonna came to their birthday party?"

Hugs and kisses to you all!

2016

I will not miss you, 2016, you were a horrendous and worthless year with only a few redeeming qualities. 

I will not delve into all shit you caused, but I will drop a few names. Donald J. Trump, Vladimir "Little Father" Putin, Bashar Al-Assad, Julian Assange and, last but not least, Aleppo.

Among the few redeeming factors were Tomais, Dej, JJ, Pook, Kevin (previously known as Knox) and the Smith Boys, Kahvy and Garrett. I must also add Ebbe Linden and Bento and the welcome extra prims.

Let us all hope - and join forces - to fight for a better 2017!
