just ignore and let this one die

Slurl please.

It was. Tomorrow's a rest day then more and bigger alps.

I like this a lot. You look very pretty, and as if you're having fun.

I like the flower too, and any 'non' photo realistic fantastical SL plants and flowers. Usually you can find that stuff on fairy sims but that one came from Shiny Things.

Yeah, I just wanted to relax and get out of business pantsuits and glasses mode for a day and just enjoy some lightweight fun stuff that I usually don't wear. It was a nice day. I had just started relaxing when someone asked me to come over and chat with a new deaf SL resident....so the silks had to go and I had to look professional once again, but they were fun while they lasted....

Good question! He won the 2007 Tour de France. In 2008 his whole team were - unfairly, I think - not invited to the participate because of some doping by completely different people on the team in the past. Last year he did win both of the other two big tours, the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a España. He has probably been favored to win by Las Vegas odds makers since before the 2009 TdF started. (I don't really know anything about that.) He skipped the Giro this year, probably to peak for the Tour de France but he has racked up quite a few wins this season in smaller races. He's 26,

3, no one is more anti-authority than me, but I worked for the last census. Not door to door, but in their recruiting office. I feel confident no one was trying to violate your privacy or separate the races.

The census questions are just a way of discovering demographics on the off chance the government would want to make informed decisions for a change, and also for researchers. If it turned out that a certain demographic, race, or culture, was more immune to some diseases, for instance, it might really help researchers to know where that demographic is concentrated. Then they can begin to determine if it's something in the genes or cultural or environmental that creates that immunity. That's just an example. I know it looks like information that could be used for nefarious purposes, but in this case I don't think it's being used that way.

Or maybe I still have modicum of idealism left in me.

As for the other personal seeming questions, like how many bathrooms are in your house - it's all stuff they can find out anyway by researching, but it just takes longer and costs more taxpayer dollars.


Fantastic shot, but that was a little more up close and personal than I intended to get with Ghosty.



Treaure, you should let your hair down (so to speak) more often if you get the chance. That's a great pic of you. I had to laugh at myself when I saw this picture. With that outfit and with the arms crossed like that, I thought you were like a black-haired Barbara Eden from "I Dream of Genie." I think she used to cross her arms to perform magic or some such. But that was all before my time of course

Oh! Neat picture! First few times I've gone across this post there was just the heading that you were taking a day off, no picture.

I have just discovered I am not really up past my bed time. That would be impossible since it cannot be my bed time if I am not actually in a bed. It's sort of like going to the North Pole and trying to head north.

However it needs to be my bed time, so good night Threadizens. May you dream of love and splendor and really cool stuff.

Well it is past my bed time! And I am on page 2009 which seems pretty cool. I need sleep - goodnight Threadies-

What a wonderful day.

One last camp report...

We were still at RFL in the morning:


Talent show was today. I was part of a bicycle circus:


We all protested leaving:


In the end, we all had to pack up:


...and where camp was, a terraformed message from the directors:


Best. Camp. Ever.

I know I had the best time experiencing it through your pictures.

I just read that Frank McCourt has died. 'Angela's Ashes" was the saddest book I ever read. I hope his later years were much happier than his childhood.

An I actually even have a *regular* weekend update, too!

Obviously, camp was the big thing, as well as our involvement with RFL. We raised a ton of Lindens for RFL. We also had a ton of events, including all the stuff you saw in the piccies, a lot of rounds of "Mad Gab" and other word games, karaoke, and so on an so on. Tons of events and stuff. Really, while I did so so much, there is tons I did not do. Lots of events missed, lots of activities I never got around to. I don't think anyone could have done it all.

There were a couple times over the weekend, though, where I ended up... not at camp. I had a "signout" for a couple things, an there was a time or two when the sim had to restart.

So here, jes because, are a couple more piccies from those times that did not exactly fit in a camp update. Thankoo f'r indulgin' me.

Stopped by my Bay City store only to find Ravenelle Zugzwang catchin' butterflies. I helped:


New construction behind my Bay City store. Love how this piccie came out, cuz it totally does not look like SL:


Saturday night fireworks:


And one more thing, for the curious or bored.

Every camp also has a "camp video," a way of remembering what was. This was the one done this year, by Gattz Gilman, one of the directors. Some of the piccies are mines, but a lot aren't, and will give a more complete view of the event overall.

I hope he did too. Not hard for it to be better, though.

Glad you enjoyed the piccies. I took tons more of em, too, at http://www.sluniverse.com/pics/AlbumView.aspx?id=1240

i KNEW it! i just knew it!!! all those claims about what a troublemaker you are MUST be true, and here you've gone and posted proof!!!




(weird... not only did my "quoting" of your picture not show, but ALL of your pictures have disappeared. hopefully just temporarily)

Gasp! And what's more, you have seen my "noob army," too!



It is an FIC plot to keep you from "the evidence."

Morning threadies. Very nice Mari. I'll check out the video after I get my own kids off to camp this morning.


Why do my cats want me dead? Every morning they both circle my feet trying to trip me or something. I feed them and they still do it,like they weren't quite done yet trying to kill me....


/me sits down,glares at Pep and patiently waits for Maureen.



Have a wonderful day threadies. Happy Monday.

That's nothing. The day he made them,he asked me to come to the hangout and look at them. So I did and had to cam his head since they were on his ears. I told him not to tell Elora I was camming him so close.I felt dirty.

Dang Elora! You both look great.

It's weird seeing Ghosty not all white and poofy though.

And Good Morning all Threadkins!

Rejoice! Today is the first day of the rest of your life! Embrace the day, and Seize the Fish (Carpe Diem..right?)

Last time I politely told the guy there were two adults in the house, then very unpolitely told him to get the #$#$@#% off my porch and come back with a warrant if he wanted to know anything else. He didn't come back.

This year if I catch one of the SOBs on my land with a GPS unit I will sic the dog on them.

Morning Thread.

Good morning, Threadies.

I was thinking, since it's Monday, some folks could use a coffee mug like this:

Yes. Me. Bless you Maureen.

Gorgeous pic...that blue looks marvelous on you. And I love your front/side yard!

Dang Revenoors! They were just after your still.
