Well given my new found fascination with top ten lists, I decided to make one of my own. Not having a blog, or a magizine to publish it in, I am limited to publishing it here. I suppose my general objection to top ten lists makes me a hypocrite for doing this, but hey, I don't like hyporcites either. I thought about doing a poll, but couldn't figure out how to make it work, so I did the next best thing, and made a list.

Thus the top ten most influential activites I do in SL (for now, and may be not exactly in the order):

10. Try out sex balls at risque.
9. watch others try out sex balls at risque.
8. build houses
7. wander about aimlessly, with no real point
6. Look for impeach bush signs.
5. sit on a hill on the new new continent and watch the new members build the same olf clubs.
4. play spot the copyright infringements
3. shop in midnight city
2. build things other than houses
1. hang out with my freinds on thier builds and wishing I had thier skills at making things.
1.a Hang out with my freinds anyway
1.b Make new friends
1.c sit around waiting to get on to SL because someone has crashed the grid. :)

Those are mine..what are yours?

In no particular order, but I'm sure it can be sorted out by a few. :)


1. Log in late, chip on some Chardonnay and watch the little green dots swirl.

2. Enjoy the sights and sounds of Penny Lane.

3. Appreciate the presence of some very special friends.

4. Be 'up to something' and have it work out quite deliciously.

5. Make $L. As sung by Shirley Manson of Garbage, "The World Is Not Enough..."

6. Discover who is mapping me by getting IM's asking: WTF are YOU doing there?

7. Appreciate the presence of some very special friends who know what I'm up to.

8. Make something really cool, then destroy it because it could have been better.

9. Listen, observe, and discover what *really* motivates others. OMGZ!!!

10. Chill in the serendipitous, wonderful, cool-mellow vibe.

I'v been here about ten days...

#1 Wonder this new world and explore, Five hours later ,and 25 Hit ons,of Hay baby you want to get down...wont put in the rest of that.

#2 Shoped for five hours,,, only to find 75 present of the economy is based on sex stores and strip clubs.

#3 Bought lots of Linden dollors....Shoped till I droped. Couldn't find one soul out of the
186,842 { as advertised } residents that would give you the time of day..Unless you agreed to meet them behind one of the 200 sex clubs.

#4 Bought another 5,000 Linden dollors, Bought two boats ,and two planes, Tryed to get
them to work but couldn't , becouse Store Bot's cann't help you figure out how to run
them.

#5 After blowing all the Linden cash, Bring in another 5,000 , and try and convince myself
now I'v got the boats,, and sexy clothes I'm sure to find some one to run with.

#6 Another day of exploreing ,One finds out the 186,842 residents that where here and
did a really great job of building this place{ Apparenly got bored with the Sex clubs,
sex clothes, and ho yes, casino's. And left the 5000 a night hangers on. To do what
ever weird things they do here.

#7 More Linden dollors, Aaa my fix for the day. Wander the emptyness of Second Life.
And soon come to the conclusion that people that are border line suicidal should not
be here looking for a life here. 1" 2" 3" or what ever.

#8 Day is looking better,no Linden fix. Decide that after 20 years of internet gameing
every day doing the Solo grind, I should not expect to find it any better here.

#9 Discover if I'm going to survive here I need to find reason for being here. Who needs
people any way. Finds a building project, and begines to move down the road {empty}
as it mite be.

#10 Up to day 9 and not being able to find any information on how the 3d thingy's works.
One finely finds one soul who is kind enough to talk for more then two sentence's.
An angel that leads you to the 3D heaven of the Ivory Tower. thank God a reason for
liveing.
