Bock in SecondLife

ART EROTIC - Black & White

I got this invitation from two friends, Rultan Zeppelin on Facebook and Ewa Aska in-world.

As the Much Honored Bock McMillan, laird of Southern Charm and prince of Cascade Falls, sovereign ruler of The Southern Enchantment Region etc, etc. and as chairman of The Bock McMillan Art Foundation (a part of the BMcM Corporation) I am duty bound to attend. Please join me there if you can.

The exhibition opens with a vernissage and a party today Sunday September 1 2013, 7AM - 9AM SLT.

From the exhibition leaflet:

"A photo exhibition consisting of six naked Second Life models, posing for erotic and romantic themes.

Black and White.

Dance, mingle, champagne and canapés.

DJ: Rultan Hosts: Andreas Datura & Ewa Aska"

My SecondLife Ankles - The Conclusion

Following a suggestion from Drey Messmer, one of my brother in-laws, I increased my foot size to 50. As you can see it may have helped a little. However - to your relief and my own also - I can safely say that this will be the last post ever concerning my ankles.

Yesterday I received a gift of elven-crafted prim feet from my friend Garth Raleigh, quite possibly to effectively shut me up on this tedious and self obsessed subject. Nonetheless I am extremely grateful to him for this considerate gift and thank him from my ankles all the way up to the top of my head.

I am going to try them out first thing today and use them whenever I can. However, if you should see me in my allegedly hideous socktops in the future you now know the reason why. Who knows, perhaps socktops will be fashionable again in which case you may refer to me as "trendsetter" or "fashionista extraordinaire".

To the bore that reported my earlier picture to Facebook, "Dear Madam/Sir, please note that I am actually wearing a swimsuit and am not flaunting a hard-on."

Eye Candy for Sunday

For Good

Idina Menzel & Kristen Chenoweth (from the musical Wicked)

For Good

(Elphaba):
I'm limited
Just look at me - I'm limited
And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda
So now it's up to you
For both of us - now it's up to you...
(Glinda):
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
(Elphaba):
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made from what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
(Glinda):
Because I knew you
(Both):
I have been changed for good
(Elphaba):
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for
(Glinda):
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
(Both):
And none of it seems to matter anymore
(Glinda):
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
(Elphaba):
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood
(Both):
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
(Glinda):
And because I knew you...
(Elphaba):
Because I knew you...
(Both):
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...

I am keeping my fingers crossed that this song will get its powerful message across to anyone who receives it.

In Anticipation of a Punitive Attack

The Americans and the French have said that they are planning an attack to punish Syria for using chemical weapons in a "crime against conscience" that killed 1,429 people on August 21, 2013. This action is expected to take place during the weekend.

In response to this Vladimir "Little Father" Putin, President of Russia, has urged the Americans and the French to rethink their plans and consider the future victims that may follow on such a military action.

This is totally absurd and hypocritical coming from a bigoted bastard who has supported the murderous Bashar al-Assad, President of Syria, and his clansmen during the last two years while they have been slaughtering close to 150,000 of their own countrymen.

Putin and Russia have throughout the two years of bloodshed successfully blocked any action being launched by the United Nations against the atrocities and thus made the world stand helplessly by and witness the continued murdering and butchering going on, day after day, week after week, month after month for two whole years.

Calas Galadhon Park Sims Reopen Today

The wonderful Calas Galadhon Park Sims are opening for visitors three days earlier than the owners, gardeners, caretakers and gamekeepers, my dear fiends, Tymus Tenk and Truck Meredith had originally anticipated. This jubilant declaration was made on the Calas Galadhon Park blog today.

"With all but about 30 percent of “Autumn Color” in on Misty Mountains, we can announce that the work and changes planned for ‘CALAS’ are complete and ready for the gates to be open on Saturday morning SLT, August 31. We didn't think you'd mind a few ‘men at work’ signs if we opened up early."

Please visit the Calas Galadhon blog (url) for more on this exciting news!

And on a more personal note here is a private message from me to Ty and Truck.
"Guys, I will not mind at all seeing a few ‘men at work’ signs, if you promise me
1) that the men at work are the two of you and
2) that you will both be working shirtless and in the skimpiest shorts that can be found in all of SecondLife."

Lights, Music & Dance!

Big Momma's Ballroom had its season opening yesterday. The beautiful place is owned and operated by my friends BM Oh and Kahvy Sands.

The venue was filled with dance enthusiasts who had sorely missed this entertainment since the venue closed at the beginning of summer. As an added treat we had live entertainment provided by the awesome singer Chi (Inchino Melson).

A picture says more than a thousand words, so let me tell you about the rest of the wonderful evening in pictures!
