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. (more…)

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. (more…)

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. (more…)

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. (more…)

I’m back, sort of . . .

It was truly my intention to write more of my journey, but circumstances being what they were, that did not quite happen. I may still write in the coming days, but all I can say is that I am glad to be home recovering from a rather insidious illness that has taken much of my energy. It all started with a terrible headache… (more…)

Bumpy start to the voyage . . .

It would appear that at least one thing has gone well in the last couple days. The inn in which I have decided to lodge for the week has a rather advanced capability, allowing me to use my three-dimensional, aethereal communications device at my leisure. Of course, as the installation of the previously mentioned steam engine was delayed due to unrelated events, leisure is hard to come by. (more…)

A voyage awaits . . .

It has been a little while since I have arrived upon the shores of Caledon. I have thus far enjoyed my time despite the occasional issue with my three-dimensional, aethereal, communications device. Recently, though, events have transpired that have made communications difficult, to say the least. I do apologize for my inability to stay current and to have been on-line. (more…)

Who does that???

This morning, my little Remembrance Day commemoration nearly didn’t happen. I went to my land in Janus and was rudely accosted by the effects of a spinning box of grief. It seemed to think that I needed to be animated in some way, though what way I do not know. I didn’t say Ok to the offer to make me do untold actions. Ironically, because of the assault on my world, I was unable to move even one millimetre. (more…)

Remembrance Day

Every year, on the anniversary of the armistice that signalled the end of the the Great War on November 11, 1918, many countries hold a gathering of its people for a minute of silence to remember those who have given their lives in support of their country’s beliefs. As most of you know, I am Canadian and my country lost a great number of its young in the first world war. To honour the men, women and children who have lost their lives in the various wars, this Sunday, November 11th, at 11am SLT, I will be hosting what I hope will become an annual tradition to join me in this Remembrance Day gathering.
