There are some who say 2nd Life is a vacuous waste of time and a poor substitute for reality. I would agree with some of that. There are those who adore the friends they make, the house(s) they own, the good times they have and the money they make in SL ...

I've been chronicling 2nd Life for exactly one year now. Or as I like to call it, my cyber-walkabout. I've tapered off in the last few months due to being preoccupied in the real world. It turns out I'm going to have 33 adventures. I didn't plan it that w...

We stepped out of Springfield Elementary's bathroom feeling slightly used and sticky. What nowTorchy turns my attention to a small viewing area off to the side of this Springfield sim.Why, it's a cozy little theater where you can watch Itchy & Scratc...

During our last adventure, Torchy and I paused to gaze at the moon. I wondered offhandedly if it was a place to visit here in 2nd Life. After a quick search of my travel guide I concluded it was not, unfortunately. But, there was a site created by NASA to...

Wake up, sweet Huygens. You've slept the day away.Funny story. I was taking a short adventure earlier and testing SL on my home computer. I recently "acquired" some more memory for it. It was the reason I rarely had quests at home. The laptop could run it...

This month will unfortunately have only one entry. Sorry, August.But we can't blame poor old Huygen's and Torchy. No. The fault is my own. It's a sad fact that 90% of our adventures took place during the work day. It's slightly comforting that about 30% ...

Taking a rest from the wonders of 2nd Life, Torchy and I decide to check out a featured place on SL's website. We were perusing the Arts & Culture section and came across The Robot Museum. It sounded like a shiny place to rest up before checking out t...

PART ONEWe're bored. So bored, Torchy suggests I type in "boring" into the teleport guide to see what pops up. I get three hits. We check out D's Yacht Club Rentals first. Oh yeah, It's boring. I see no indication of why this site would pop up, though. Th...

"In Camelot. Camelot! Camelot! I know it sounds a bit bizarre, But in Camelot, Camelot That's how conditions are."Torchy and I are just hanging out in this Medieval zone and harpooning random passersby. If you stay far enough away and get a few knee-high ...

Well, we've come to the end of our month long adventure, Torchy. Our search for the four seasons has taken us from one side of 2nd Life to the next, and I'm sure we've cheesed off a lot of people in the process. Especially those dancing noobs back there o...

We're awake. I come to at the bar in the main ski lodge. I must have been more tired from our tumble down the mountain and all that Guinness than I thought. There are a lot of people around too. Maybe they want my seatI get up and get ready to head out. ...

I awake in the Black Forest to find the small pleasant pond before me transformed into some Stonehenge type, possibly sacrificial, alter. I'm glad I woke up when I did. What the hell were they planning for me. We should get out of here, Torchy.Trudging up...
