OCC: The State of Things…plus SPOILER…Revealing my Alts in New Babbage

Hello, The Typist wanted to say a few words. Seven months ago my computer ceased operating. This was at a very unfortunate time. I had just finished my building that, sadly, took me six months to finish. The build was not in place long before the box on my desk became a non-computer. Thankfully, just this week hard drive #2 was cracked and the backups of most of my textures, sculpts and other data has been recovered. Hard drive #1 should be recovered by next week.

I was a naïve optimist and believed it would, like the “The Modern Prometheus”, be brought back to life. Seeing a chance to rent a lot with more prims, next to a place dear to my heart, I moved the building. (Using a friend’s computer.) That was months ago and I currently get into SL once a week to pay rent.

My current projection is that I will be able to get a new computer in December.

SPOILER: Revealing My Alts.

I have tried to keep some RP going on the forum. I apologize to anyone if I dropped the ball.

Osric Worbridge: My primary in New Babbage. He, technically, is the builder and land holder.

Cadmus Lupindo: The Most Interesting Man in New Babbage, is the owner of Ahab’s Revenge Whale Oil Company and Ahab’s Bane Tavern. “Stay thirsty my friends.”

Odnar Halberstadt: Miner from Falun. Recipient of the Order of the Milk Bottle.

Gil the Sea Urchin: Lives in Vernian Sea and does not like his fish cooked.

I look forward to making my build better for RP and hanging out. Hopefully I will be able to have a real Grand Opening in January.

I would love to hear suggestions for fun events that could be held at Ahab’s.

Spread the love

    I love the name “Gil” for a sea urchin :D Will sacrifice some old floppy disks in honor that you get a new computer soon!(I never know who is who in alt land-thanks for the heads up)

    I hope to see you around town soon!  Glad to know that all of those others hadn’t gone away either.  I’ve revealed my alts before when I was offline for an extended period, so welcome to the unfortunate club of creative people, I guess! :)

     

    Gilhooly and Gil should hang out more.

    I’m fascinated by the Order of the Milk Bottle and I wonder if that’s an aspiration I should have. Is there an Order of the Pie?  (which I would like better)

     ((and good luck in dealing with the new desk paperweight you have acquired–I hope your files and textures are all restored to safety soon))

    Need a bartender at the Ahab’s revenge? *grins* 

    Hurry back soon! I haven’t gotten nearly enough time with the Captain.

      I would be happy to discuss employment Ms. Macbain. Perhaps…

      *Cadmus pushes the Typist out of the way*

      My Dear Star, Why don’t you come over and have some drinks. I would be happy to look over your…resume and perhaps we can come to an arrangement.

      *Cadmus Grins*

        *chuckles* I’ll happily come let you have a look at my…resume. I’m afraid you’ll have to wait until I put back into port. 

        Unless, of course, you can catch me at sea.

          MISTER CALAMY! Have the crew Beat to Quarters! I want the Leviathan prepped and ready to launch by Eight Bells!

            The Red Cat is a fleet ship, Captain. I think you’ll have a hard time doing more than sighting my stern. *grins*

              *Thinks about sighting her stern*

    Hard-drive #1 I am told is empty. A second look will be made.

    The data recovered from hard-drive #2 saves me from a loss of 5 months work so I am happy.
