Star Trek 50th Anniversary

Star Trek 50th Anniversary
"Star Trek 50th Anniversary" by Tomais Ashdene

The beloved television series Star Trek celebrated it's 50th anniversary yesterday September 8th.

In honor of this celebration, my husband Tomais, who is a nerd, geek and trekkie bundled into one exceptional piece of hunky man, made the picture above with our friends JJ Goodman (in the red outfit) and Aeon J. Goodman (in the blue outfit). Tomais himself is in the yellow outfit.

SL12B Begins Today!

And right in the middle of the ongoing celebration of the 10th anniversary of Pride in SecondLife the community also gets to celebrate the 12th Birthday of our wonderful Second Life.
I will of course go to take a peek at this celebration also, if nothing else but to show my gratitude to my darling Philip Linden (a.k.a. Philip Rosedale) and his team of superbly clever, imaginative, skillful and loveable nerds, geeks and dorks, i.e. Linden Lab.

Thank you, for giving us this world to live in!

For more information about this event I direct you to my friend Ricco Saenz blog Second Sighting: Celebrating dreams at SL’s 12th Anniversary and of course the event website SL Community Celebration

Adorkable Geeks

I have always suffered from a weakness for geeks and nerds. Men that are nerds are very attractive to me. Their unashamed fascination with some non-mainstream activity is tremendously sexy. They are not afraid to be themselves and are usually intelligent.
When Tomais and I visited with Dej yesterday I had the privilege to be present when two such adorkable guys met and had a wonderful time just listening to their conversation about common interests.

Congratulations, SecondLife!


Our wonderful immersive three dimensional virtual reality SecondLife is officially 10 years old today!

I would like to take this occasion to thank Philip Linden, in first life also known as Philip Rosedale, the founding father of our world, who first envisioned something far less complicated and more militant than the spectacular, wonderful and fabulous world we inhabit today.

Besides Philip there were other brilliant and fabulous geeks and nerds, those who first understood what he was rambling about and could assist him in creating the very first version of our world and then the later generations of amazing and lovable tech geeks and nerds at Linden Lab who kept on tweaking, adjusting and adding to the original version during the first marvelous ten years.

I love all of you adorable dorks, Philip Linden, Andrew Linden, Cory Linden, Frank Linden, James Linden, Doug Linden, Eric Linden, John Linden, Tessa Linden (who kept the first generation fueled with caffeine and dealt with matters so that the geeks and nerds wouldn't have to drop their work and do it) and all the other amazingly talented geeks and nerds and other wonderful people that followed, including Belinda Linden, Keira Linden and Theresa Linden. All of the amazing Lindens, with the single exception of that awful man M Linden, the s-o-b who downsized Linden Labs dramatically and so left us hanging with loads of untreated and unsolved issues for a long time.

You all and we made it through the first ten years, my darlings, now give us ten more wonderful years!
