The McMillan Ball, Today at 2-4PM SLT

Bock in SecondLife is happy to invite all of it's readers and their friends to The McMillan Ball at Second Pride Festival, today between 2-4PM SLT.

The ball will be lead by DJ Kahvy and his host Garrett. Don't know the dances? No worries, just follow Kahvy's suggestions in local chat.

We suggest you come in formal attire - and tartans are highly encouraged - but no one will be kicked out for attending in jeans or beachwear.

The ball will take place at the main stage of Second Pride (SLurl).

Second Pride Festival Starts Today

The Second Pride Festival 2016 starts today!

This is going to be so fun and exciting! I'm sure it will be "the best Pride ever", somehow that is mostly the feeling I walk away with at the end of every festival.

Just being there, meeting the people you like but still haven't seen much of since last Pride because our timezones are different and our circles don't overlap. Every year it is also exciting to make new friends - who may become "Pride friends" but, with any luck, closer.

Bock in SecondLife is going to be there - of course - and I will eagerly report back to you almost everything I encounter, but perhaps a bit more sparsely this year as I will not start my vacation until Midsummer's Eve, which is next Friday.

To celebrate the Pride Festival I have made a blog header of my own, I forgot to consult my clever and talented husband Tomais in time. I am graphically challenged but it will suffice for the coming nine days.

I hope to see you all at Bock in SecondLife's booth at Second Pride South or at the blog's event on this Saturday, 2-4PM SLT, when I and Kahvy are starting a new tradition - hopefully - with this event.

Orlando Memorial in SecondLife

Kip Ashbourne and Chaz Longstaff are inviting us to remember the men and women lost in the mass murder in Orlando on June 12th 2016.

In their invitation they say:
"Join us in coming together to sign a guest book and light a candle, and sharing some time and thoughts with your friends, neighbours and SL community.

To sign the guestbook, just drop a notecard in with one or two lines in it. Your words will automatically be written on the pages of the guestbook.

The memorial is open around the clock.

No donations, please.

Kip and Chaz"
