7731 –

Went over luminosity and particle physic in 2nd life. I think any programmer with some fundamental skill in C and a little history of level design n Doom would clean up in there. I’ve only been there since the weekend, and putting stuff together is mostly a snap. As always, friendly faces and good times. I got to visit a bit with qdot, uber and HP… as well as meet some friendly new faces.

I am disappointed that it can’t grab outside file sources for clothing, (thought it can for static locations, like on your property)… so much for the streaming NewtCam real time T-shirt… for now. We’ll see what future revisions bring. I *can* make a billboard with a big ol’ Newtcam flow on it, just nothing that’s worn and moves.

Newt Chilling in front of the computer. He looks a little sinister here.. I think it’s the sunbeam.


Halloween Jukebox is running at X-entertainment. don’t let the X fool you, he’s only pg-13 at the worst of cases. The king of 80s flashbacks / Halloween and the like.


Moment of Lyric- (mp3 – Thanks Dani!)

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch.
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I’m singing,

Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

There’s a giant doing cartwheels,
A statue wearing high heels.
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens.

Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band.
Won’t you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Wond’rous apparition provided by magician.

Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band.
Won’t you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I’ll buy no sorrows.

Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I’ll buy no sorrows.

Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.

Of course, I sing it “Newt, Newt, Newt, Lookin’ out my Back door”.

Actually, that about sums up how surreal 2nd life is, too. Or my first one, for that matter.
