Fascinating...
A friend "transported" Cursa to the Second Life Science Fiction Convention
2, where he found this single-eyebrow-raising depiction of the bridge of
the Enterprise (and you *know* which one I'm talking about). Lots of other
cool stuff from other universes (not "franchises"), too - worth checking
out

Pirate Waters!
船长 Andrea Curtis has kindly taken Svetka and Cursa aboard her ship
Prosperity, under the Dragon Flag, for a cruise through the 35 sims of
Antiquity. Amazing!

One Small Step...
Cursa has donned his space suit and gone to check out some history -
Tranquility Base. Or maybe it's a time warp, since "Eagle" is still sitting
here intact. Wonderful replica - or is it a trainer for the people who are
going to fake the first Mars landing...?

Joyeux Noel?
Cursa didn't think they got much snow on Mont St. Michel, but they seem to
on the SL version. It's always striking to discover a famous place from the
physical world and be able to go visit it. Vive la SL!

Wonders of the (Virtual) World
This beautiful Japanese-style pagoda, looking like it sits in Nara, bears
the legend "Neko" over the torii. It overlooks the sandbox of a Star Tre
heavy sci-fi group of furries. Only in SL...

See no evil...
Among the many authentic touches at Hosoi Ichiba are the very much at home
monkeys loitering around near a shrine. The three in the back look about
ready to become the famous "mizaru, kikazaru, iwazaru"...

Hiroi yo, Hosoi Ichiba
This panoramic view shows the breadth and detail of this wonderful place
evoking Old Japan. Cursa has chatted in Japanese with a new resident drawn
to the atmosphere, and with a local role-player whose delightful portrayal
of an old man enhances the immersion

Ippuku for Cursa
The weary Tabibito (wanderer) takes a breather on the cool paving stones of
Hosoi Ichiba. If Cursa had some cash on hand, he could hire the kago (sedan
chair) and get carried around - it works!

Fall in Love?
Frank's Place has a new Elite club, with beautiful autumn foliage and a
lagless classy ambience. If "mature" isn't just a code word for "explicit",
this might be the place for you

Shadown Burning
Well, Cursa *was* going to write up something nice about the planet where
Mal Reynolds came from, but it's on fire at the moment, not sure what'll be
in lookable shape when it's done...

Deep Ones at work?
Sunrise over Innsmouth, and something - or some *things* - wrecked a ship
on the rocks, suspiciously close to the lighthouse. No way Cursa's getting
into *that* water!

Call of Cthul-who?
Scoping on the Map, Cursa espies an island named Innsmouth, has to check
it. Here's the Arkham theater, with the marquee talking about "The Call of
Cthulhu" startting Myrna Loy and Basil Rathbone. Ia! Ia!
Not sure what the deal is here (diorama, themed residential, role play),
but it looks creepy enough for an Innsmouth...

Twist of Fate?
So Cursa tries to log in to SL, and after several false starts, gets on
only to be told "your last location is unavailable".
Where does Cursa end up? Hyannisport! Is this some kind of mystical vortex
at work, trying to draw Cursa into the observances for the death of Ted
Kennedy?
