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.

At the Cocoon House
I had read about DaD's "Cocoon House" on Ricco Saenz blog, Second Sighting (url), a while back. Today I went there to check it out for myself.
It's a beautiful house, but alas, too small for the needs and requirements of a SecondLife royal. I did buy it tho. Just in case I should happen to be exiled by some minor revolution, which is highly unlikely but it is best to prepare for all contingencies.
Bock is wearing:
Dazed - Freaktard glasses Onyx
Complex - Carlos Shirt - Style 1
Dufaux - Spring short - dot/gray
Equal - Caleb sandals, black
P.S. Please note, no socks were worn with the sandals!

Friday Coma
As most Friday's I am exhausted after the work-week. I am not quite sure if it's my increasing age or the lack of sleep - or poor sleep during the week - that makes me so tired when Friday comes along.

Dej's Sweet Sixteenth Birthday Again!
My sweet and delightful older brother Dejerrity Mycron, has a weird personality disorder which has lead to him being stuck at the age of sixteen perpetually, so the last couples of decades we have been celebrating his 16th birthday in first life, over, and over, and over, and over again...
This is his favourite song, where he actually identifies with Liesl
.
"Sixteen going on Seventeen"
Music by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Oscar Hamnerstein
---
You wait little girl on an empty stage
For fate to turn the light on
Your life little girl is an empty page
That men will want to write on
To write on...
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Baby, it's time to think
Better beware, be canny and careful
Baby, you're on the brink
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Fellows will fall in line
Eager young lads and roues and cads
Will offer you food and wine
Totally unprepared are you
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared are you
Of things beyond your ken
You need someone older and wiser
Telling you what to do
I am seventeen going on eighteen
I'll take care of you
[Refrain: Liesl]
I am sixteen going on seventeen
I know that I'm naïve
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly I believe
I am sixteen going on seventeen
Innocent as a rose
Bachelors, dandies, drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those?
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken
I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are seventeen going on eighteen
I'll, depend, on you
This is his favourite song, where he actually identifies with Liesl

"He's Older Than SecondLife Dinosaur Dung"
Today we celebrate an avatar who - if the suspicions of SecondLife archeologists are correct - is older than the dinosaur coprolite found on The Land of Rainbows sim.
Fossilized Kahvy-poop, exhibit 1 |
Fossilized Kahvy-poop, exhibit 2 |
According to emerging theories among the archeologists there was life in SecondLife even before our beloved Philip Linden set his dainty little feet in-world. Excavations at The Land of Rainbows sim have shown that there were indeed dinosaurs wandering that sim long before that day.
DNA-analysis of the dinosaur dung found has proven without any doubt that the coprolites have been deposited by none other than the avatar today known as Kahvy Smith (nee Sands). The theory is that Kahvy Smith shapeshifted from dino to human avatar on this day eleven years ago in order to survive the changing climates that were threatening the existence of the dinosaurs.
Happy eleventh human avatar rezday, Kahvy!
(Inquisitive minds may wonder how I know this much about Kahvy's background in SecondLife. Well, to be quite honest, I was there already when he emerged.)
