"Magic World ❄️" by Nime Daviau
Wherein this avatar's fates, adventures and experiences in, his thoughts and feelings about and his reactions to his first and second life are depicted with written messages, images and other audiovisual tools.
I am Bock in SecondLife and Bock is I in first life. We share thoughts, opinions, feelings, actions and reactions. We are one and the same and inseparable. On this blog I choose to share both my realities.

Dem Bones, Dem Bones!
In the 3rd year of the almighty, wonderful and charming Ebbe Altberg (a k a Ebbe Linden), CEO of Linden Lab, the creative gods at the lab have - in close cooperation and collaboration with SecondLife content creators - achieved the revolutionary Bento Skeleton.
Both Linden Lab and Firestorm have now released viewers that are Bento compatible.
Bento is an extension of the SecondLife avatar skeleton whereby we get dozens of new bones to support rigging and animation and new attachment points.
The new skeleton, which is compatible with existing avatars, rigging and animation, gives creators the power to build more sophisticated avatars than ever before. The skeleton extensions include:
- 11 extra limb bones for wings, additional arms, or extra legs.
- 6 tail bones
- 30 bones in the hands (all 10 fingers!)
- 30 bones for facial expressions
- 2 other new bones in the head for animating ears or antennae
- 13 new attachment points associated with the new bones
What all this means is simply that our wonderful SecondLife content creators have gotten more and better tools to make things look, move and appear better and a greater range of customization to your own preferences and individuality.

Happy Holidays 2016
It's that time of year again. It always seems to come along very fast once you have passed into November. The world is simply overflowing with goodwill and greetings for the coming holidays.
Well, this year Tomais and I aren't the last in getting our greetings out, that honor goes to Ophiel and Nathanael this year (or so I and Ophiel agreed...).
Have a wonderful holiday season with an abundance of good spirit. Enjoy your families, friends, luscious meals and good alcohol!

Petr, Older Than Dirt Avatar Celebrates 5th Anniversary
Despite adamant denials and extensive pixel-surgery that has him looking younger than a two year old Petr Hastings-Vanbeek recently admitted to being older than dirt, although still maintaining that he is much younger than the venerable old man Dejerrity Mycron.
Happy Dirt-day, you grumpy young avatar, and may you also have many, many more! And also congratulations to you and Tasty on your fifth anniversary.
