.......and let's just say I spent more at the liquor store than the grocery store. :p
I always thought a 2-to-1 ratio was about right.

Here's a fire to warm your toesies:



and some cocoa:



And totally OT:

God damn those idiots over at the Linden Prize thread! I'm sitting there sticking up for LL and all we get is morons who can't do math and who bitch and moan about that fucking OS fiasco. Sometimes I really really can't stand our crybaby userbase.


Yeah, I don't get the "You lose $xxx taking the money out of SL." Who cares? It's found money if you win.

I understand that people were dealt from the bottom on the OS situation, even knowingly "misusing" them would not make up for the disgraceful way LL has handled it, and whether it was from greed on incompetence is really not important. And venting is a pefectly good thing to do when they have so much invested in it, but some the hysteria is getting a bit much. I don't think LL is going to budge, so stepping back and breathing into a paper bag is recommended, then deciding what to do will be a bit easier.

Yeah, but women require things like clothes and shoes also, so we have to have a bit of money left for those things.

The things that we women sacrifice in order to look good for our men.

That's about right for an average day. The store owner is this really funny Russian Guy, I figure he was either KGB or Mafia over there, the type that you know there is a line that is not to be crossed somewhere. I joke with him about how he will feel right at home in the every increasing Socialist State of New Jersey. He is always trying to push some sort of cheap Russian Vodka, when I buy my usual Absolut.

LL is having a contest for the project in SL that has the biggest impact and benefit for people around the world. There's a $10,000 prize. 95% of the thread consists of people complaining and hating on LL. It's getting old. But like Lil said, I'm just going to let it go. :)

Considering most people dont know HOW technically, SL works or the problems & issues behind it.... it will not end well.

I should win solely based on the fact that I honor sl with my presence.

I think so, or at least give LL/SL a better reputation. They want stuff like projects that help people to learn, projects that better the human condition, projects that reach out beyond SL in some way or another. It's actually a cool idea, but it's being shouted down by all the dern naysayers in that thread.

Do you think suggesting they sell SL to a company that knows what they are doing would have a chance of winning?

It is LL pretending to give a prize. But instead of it costing them anything, they are giving L$ so that if they are cashed out, the residents can pay the actual cost . All things considered, it is nothing more than a sleazy PR move.

I am going to convert prims to food and feed Ethiopia.

In 2010 I will work on converting prims into a renewable fuel source.
