Artist Robin Wood owns Practical Magick at Serenite. Her website links to her products in SL, but seems to be down atm. There's a small blurb about her at http://www.llewellyn.com/bookstore/author.php?id=14385

/me hits herself in the forehead..doh! I thought that name sounded familiar when i visited her shop, I own a set of her tarot cards..

Can I just stick with Harrison Ford?
Nope. Because we know you're actually Robin Williams.

Who is this Drew Carey you mention? Is that one of your young people's rock and roll singers I hear on the wireless, or a cinematography actor of some kind?

New host of that USA television series "The Price is Right."

He signed a 75 year contract to be the new host. I know because a respected newspaper told me.

I know Newt Gringrich (however you spell his last name) has been in SL, and I've seen Scott Adams inside SL. I did not cyber either of them.

As long as we are picking celebrities.. can I be Bill Clinton? - The man got away with so much... and people still miss him.

You sound as if he died. Did he die?

The NFL record for the longest field goal ever kicked was held for many years by a guy with only half a foot. He used a special shoe. I can't remember his name, and I haven't the faintest idea why I have that piece of information stuck in my head, but there you go.

Maybe he's famous and in SL? His name is Stumpy McGee or FootlessJoe Jackson or something.

I read that particular bit of information the other day in the Onion print edition. Something like 64 yards. There is a player who had kicked one for 63 yards this year.

Ann Coulter (spits) is in SL and she has her own name. Had a brief run-in with her here on the forums.

Wit and wisdom of Ann Coulter ...

without one actually, seeing as a television is also referred to as a box sometimes :D


yeah I guess so huh :o
/me checks the lovely plywood

or I'm just not into the fame thing, or into the wrong fame thing, or something.

I like the famous people I know in SL though, met lots of great musicians :)

Harrison Ford is sort of hairy. I wonder if his friends call him Harry and snicker?

Didn't read the whole thread so someone might have already said this...


On a late night talk show about 1 year ago, I saw actress Sharon Stone admit that she is part of a "virtual community" of women friends that get together and hang out and dance, partake in discussion groups, etc.

When the interviewer asked her what community she said something like, "Well, I get to be someone else in this place so I don't think I'll tell ya that".

I was like, "OMG, Sharon Stone is in SL!" :eek:

I'm still trying to find her. :p

Yes there are very famous people in SL.

But outing them would cause them distress, ruin their experience or just send them to an alt in disappointment.

Have I got proof? Yeah. ...
Hey! Des has somebody famous living in Caledon! Lets all go aimlessly wander around his umpty-ump sims making loud snapshot noises!

lol i'm sure there are famous people here, and that they live as discreetly here as they do in RL. [Which means, Derbor, that yes you CAN be Bill Clinton in SL, because if he were here we'd know it already!]

Personally, I shudder whenever I see a 12-year-old girl AV in pigtails, 'cause I am very sure that one of them is Bill O'Reilly.

She seemed stupid enough to be the real Ann Coulter.

"You know, I don't consider McDonalds junk food.....they do all kinds of salads and stuff."

And this man was in charge of nuclear weapons.

I feel safer with someone who chokes on pretzels than someone who had a heart attack from eating McDonalds daily and then went back for a Big Mac the next day.

I don't miss him being in charge. In a year or so, I won't miss the current guy either. I don't miss his dad being in charge before Clinton. I've pretty much given up entirely. Luckily, the President doesn't seem to have the power to completely take down the nation. How many bad ones in a row have we had now?
