What is Steampunk to you?

If I ask one hundred people for a detailed definition of what steampunk means to them, I am sure to get ninety nine different definitions. Of course, I don’t have one hundred regular readers, but I would still like to spark some debate on this subject, so please feel free to trackback to this posting! So, what does Steampunk mean to you? I’ll start off with my interpretation.

Grand Opening of Writer Clock Works!

Here ye, here ye! Let there be no confusion on this point! Writer Clock Works will be holding the Grand Opening of their product line of beautiful virtual clocks in their new store in Babbage Palisade! Come one, come all for an exciting time of dancing, conversing and trivia! Refreshments and snacky bits shall be provided and music will be by the wonderful Radio Riel!

Now this is over the top . . .

No, I have not lost my mind. Well, not completely, anyway. As long-time readers will agree, I do not, by any stretch of the imagination, consider myself an expert with graphics tools. Truth be told, I am able to just do what I need to get done. Usually. My weakest point has always been original creative expression, thus I have always found it extremely challenging to come up with a logo that simply is not ugly.

A genuinely useful program . . .

I don’t generally write of such modern items as “software,” whatever that is, but I’ve come across something that is genuinely useful to anyone who fears losing data to the asset computational engines. I was reading an article by someone and saw mention of Second Inventory, a program that allows one to save one’s assets to their own local computational engine. Save one’s assets indeed!

One more time, with feeling . . .

In an ongoing effort to bring my expenses in line, I’ve decided to sell my land on the mainland. It’s sad for me because it was the first land within the virtual world known as Second Life that I bought. I’ve had it since shortly after coming in-world. But, all good things must come to an end.

Ok, that was fast . . .

Yes, it is true. Land in Caledon is in great demand! Barely sooner than I had announced that I was selling the property rights to my parcel in Stormhold, I had received an offer! Miss Soliel Snook is now the new owner of what was once Lord Elgin Park.

For Sale By Owner . . .

The time has come where I must reduce my land holdings just a little. As many of you know, the Caledon Stormhold Monastery is no more. I wasn’t making use of the monastery and could no longer afford the upkeep. The resident monk, Father Cornelius, will now have to roam the virtual world to spread his good cheer. Perhaps in time he will find a permanent home again. For now, I’ve set up a cot in SteamSkyCity in my little residence in the corner of the Sim.

My first Jira post . . .

First, let me start by apologizing for my continued limited presence in-world. Although both my RL wife and I are better, we are up to our noses in paper work and house work as we prepare for her eventual arrival. Woohoo! I have, of course, had the odd occasion to spend a few minutes at a time in-world and hope to soon increase that.

In a state of overwhelmednessish

Yesterday, I had popped into Second Life for the first time in a couple weeks after having struggled with an upper respiratory infection and its effects for the past 6 weeks. To say I was overwhelmed by the support and kind words would be an understatement.

Tag, I’m it???

It would appear that I have befallen the deadly tag monster and must now rattle off eight random facts about my puppet master. As anyone who truly knows me, I tend to be a rather quite person, yet I am seldom introspective, therefore I shall endeavor to do my best in this regard.
