Street of Dreams is Starting to Take Shape & Update

zentemples

On this side of The Shift, the Street of Dreams is a complete range of Temple environments created by me; each leading to a profoundly different world with a different set of work regulations and work conditions.

My wondrous shops and Jazz Club are gone, alas, as are those of Space and XxaxX, sigh, but we gotta have bypasses, and it’s up to us Vogons to put them in, and that’s what I did.

UPDATE ADDITION:

I’ve managed to buy and put up two more temples tonight, and I want to hasten to add that SpaceBuddhaa has an enormous multi-story gallery & shops boutique, housing many of her wonderful decorating items and other wondrous goodies. It’s on The Strip, at 3201 Meters, along with my Fashionista Shop, right next door to hers.

Bottom line, Spacebuddhaa, XxaxX and Leslie Ann are deluged by tons of stuff coming back into our inventories, but it does make room for the Temple items necessary for their function, and shops are not the primary purpose of the Ashram. Continue reading

I Spent the Night Alone

 

I spent the entire night roaming the Ashram at each and every level, analyzing each area and noting which I need to do first and which can wait until some other time. I now have a full breakdown of the exact location of each and every meeting space and workspace in the Ashram and the number of prims available to deal with each.

I am happy to say that my Far West Region, which was strapped down to just hundreds of prims, has now a nice juicy 11,101 prims with which to work, and I’ll need every single one of them to do what I’m going to do there, upon which I’ll now elaborate: Continue reading

Thank you, thank you, SpaceBuddhaa!!!

Cloister Members during Demolition of the Waterfront Condo

SpaceBuddhaa was busy in the Ashram tonight, clearing out the objects in the Condo. I have a suspicion that when I de-rezzed the condo, someone fell — I sort of saw something move downward from my elevated position. I hope that’s not true, but if it is, I’m mighty sorry, even if the Avatars tend to bounce like a toon.

By the way, personal flying is permitted of course when you’re building or rezzing, it should go without saying. It should, but it can’t. So the final word is, for building, you can do whatever you need to do in order to accomplish the build.

Anyhow, thanks to SpaceBuddhaa’s efforts tonight, in spite of a lousy internet connection and all sorts of Sl internal problems, the objects formerly known as “the condo” and contents are entirely gone, making room for what should be there, should have been there in the first place, but couldn’t be there until we were here, if you get my meaning, if you get my drift. What is it that’s going in there? It’s what Morgan would have called “Wait and See Pudding”. Continue reading

Lorca, GullFoyle, Capizz, Molly Midway — Your Malibu Beach Home is Here!!!

malibu

I’ve put up Malibu Beach Homes for Lorca, GullFoyle, Capizz and Molly Midway; they’re not yet completely finished, but they do each have your brand-new XxaxX-made plasma tanks, the latest model. I’ll get around to putting in some decor as I’m able. I’m posting my hourly stuff on twitter, and was just in time to put up a notice that we were in the middle of a crashing thunderstorm (thanks for the rain-dances) which begins the fall season in this New Reality. You can tell whose house is whose by clicking on it and reading the name. If you want a name box in front, we can arrange it. Continue reading

What’s Going On Here, Anyway???

tibetantantragown_001

This blog started out on the subject of How to use your Brane-Power Ammy Induction Apps — merely wear the Ammy of choice, download and run the corresponding Ammy Induction from your iPhone or Android, but then, in the middle of it, came The Announcement about SpaceBuddhaa’s resignation from the Cloister, on facebook, and I’m including some commentary on it. Relax, it’s nothing to get hung about. Read on. Continue reading

Angelic Harp Calls

http://youtu.be/mgB2S81nucI?list=UUpqhJxtSbCYFHSQpX2mZxeQ

Any computer programmer, certainly any game developer, will immediately understand when I refer to a “call”. It means that I’ve sent a uniquely recognizable prompt to the Central Processor asking for a specific response. I “call” for an action, perhaps an execution of a sound, plus an animation, say a “spin-around once, and jump up once”, when I trigger TAG=123, for instance.

And anyone with any kind of wired or wireless connection to the internet will know what a dropped call means. If you think of a smartphone as a communications device with unknown entities in some sort of electronic but not necessarily geophysical relationship to you, you’ll get the idea of what it is to “call”  or “to call down” an angel.

Uh, before you whip out your Angelic Harp or Singing Bowl or Portable Temple Bell or whatever you use to alert higher-ups that you’ve logged on and are asking for an open channel (I always use Channel “D”, an old habit left over from working at Arena Productions), I must warn you that calls cost you something, and it isn’t money.

Help Needed, and Fast!!!

How would you like to not have to hear me asking you for your help in paying off the land mortgage of $300,000 ever again???

Let me explain the situation: we do not presently own the land, and haven’t been able to own our own land for decades for a dumb and totally unjust rule. Banks don’t lend to nonprofits, period, and that’s across the board everywhere countrywide and maybe even worldwide, because banks don’t want the Scrooge Complex to be laid upon them; they simply don’t want to have to EVER foreclose on a church or synagogue, and that’s the whole reason, nothing to do with law or business practices, just public relations.

Because we have a very good relationship with our bank, and we’ve practiced exceptionally good management over the past 43 years, never ever missing a mortgage payment, we’re being offered a chance to actually own our own property, and without a qualified co-signer (someone earning over $200,000 a year would barely qualify). We are being considered for a loan, but we must bring some money to the table, actually $15,000 in cash, straight up.

Tiffany models Customized Peter Grimm Cowboy Hat artisaned by ej gold — $125.

Tiffany came over the other day to model hats — I wasn’t there for most of the photo shoot, but I was there for the end of it, and I do have all the shots taken in that short impromptu session, and this is one nice one that shows off the hat. This wrapped-fibre tailed & blazened custom cowboy hat from a Listed American Artist retails for a mere $125, and I make ’em myself, all by hand except for the genuine tagged Peter Grimm hat itself, which can be shaped, formed and customized in many different ways. Thanks to all those who did the modeling session. Wholesale on the hats is $65 — you only need to order 2 to get the wholesale price, so you’re actually getting one hat free!!!

Prosperity Path Gold Claim — Good Spots to Prospect

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

There are some nice air-breaks and drops in the upper part of this photo, just below the ripples. You’d look for bedrock, of course, but first, you’ll want to find the exact water-break where the floodwater allows the gold to drop straight down through an air pocket. Gold wants to fall first, and will be ahead of all the other heavy minerals, slightly upstream from the sand, where the gravel falls and the heavier metals will be found.

How To Make $1 Million Selling Fine Art That You Don’t Own

          Oil Painting by David Teniers the Younger, about 1643 — Price on Request.

How To Make $1 Million Selling Fine Art That You Don’t Own? Nothing could be simpler. You’ll need at least a smartphone of some sort — an Android will do just fine in most areas of the local planet, although they work best back home, on Delta 55a. Of course they don’t work on any of the L3 levels, including 15a, because telepathics don’t tend to invent the telephone. Gosh, it hasn’t been more than a few seconds, and already I’ve wandered far off-subject…oh, yeh…selling $1 Million worth of fine art, that’s right…

So… you want to sell fine art, eh? And you wouldn’t mind making $1 Million with someone else’s fine art stockroom, too, right? And if you donate some of that $1 Million for the Ashram, you’ve got a triple-win. I’ve got the art, you’ve got the motivation and the skills, so okay, let’s get right down to basics. Here’s exactly how it’s done:
