I have been growing increasingly frustrated and depressed about the potential future of Second Life.

It has taken me 3 years to really get fully acquainted with Second Life in a way that really truly makes it feel like a second life. I've made so many friends in SL. I've found some interesting ways of creating things in Second Life that does exactly what I've always wanted to do in a graphics engine. The only thing I haven't done is created a terrain--but I'd have to have a lot...

I know I've rambled on about how much I enjoy being heavy, and I DO enjoy it, but 260 pounds on a 5'6" frame has taken its toll on my breathing. I won't be doing anything significant and suddenly I need to breathe heavily as if I wasn't breathing enough. I shouldn't have to consciously focus on my breathing all the time, that's just not a good thing.

I've been working on a Windows machine in which the large drive (which we got a replacement for) pretty much crapped out, and that drive is the one that contains all of this guy's important files.

This drive cannot be accessed by Windows...

I had gotten strep throat somehow and my doctor put me on Cephalexin for 10 days. I thought I was just dealing with a flu of sorts, but when the symptoms got worse than ever today, I went to the pharmacist to ask questions and he told me to stop taking it immediately, which I have done--although it doesn't matter much since the prescribed amount was ever 6 hours and I took it only 2 hours ago. Colitis, severe fatigue, shakiness, confusion, dizziness, hives that started an hour ago, and kidney...
