Born in a Barn

You will no doubt recall that Dad was letting his horse live in the house.  Well, it wasn’t long before he got busted by Blu and she threw him (and the horse he rode in on) out to live in a barn.

Logan and I let ourselves in for a nose around and made ourselves comfy on the couch. It’s really quite cozy. We might throw him out and live here ourselves.

Cennie, Caloth and Choati

This is Cennie Deines whom I met in the Dog Park with Caloth and Choati. They were very shy and didn’t say a word so I got onto the Millerphone and ordered some Double Flame Grilled Child Avatar Burgers and Coke to go. When the delivery bloke arrived, I had Logan pass them out to everyone. I think it broke the ice (-:

Masha Fierenza

Masha Fierenza was a small blue penguin that I met at the Project FUR sim. She didn’t say much, just “Peeeeeeep” mostly.

Cazaluff’s Comet

I went to visit Cazaluff with Blu and Hosanna and Logan. We stood there in amazement because Cazaluff was working in her yard. Blu said it was like a comet, they only come every hundred years or so and their appearance is brief and fleeting.

Brief and fleeting it was indeed, only a few minutes in fact and she was back to normal. Standing around drinking ginger beer.

Project FUR Japan

Back on the topic of fund raising for Japan, this is the VKC’s site at Project Fur Japan (good work Aztek) which is raising funds for the animals caught up in the aftermath of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. Enrico has re-released the Polar Bear and the Penguin for the duration of the event and he is donating all the proceeds from the sales of dogs in all the parks to the cause this week. The donations from the dog sales finish Saturday 9 April 2011, but the VKC Polar Bears and VKC Penguins are available for the rest of the month.

Project Fur Japan is being run by Blazin Aubret, Sanura Snowpaw and Tristan Careless. The creators who are selling their things at this event are donating 100% of their sales to the cause.   Please come and visit the sim.  I think this is a great cause, it is important to look out for the animals and the pets too and I like to think that if something bad happened to me, people would rally round and look after Logan so that she wouldn’t go short of a bag of chips and a cup of tea here and there and a sack of straw to sleep on.

In this photo you can see a glimpse of the aisles of vendors and get an idea of the scale of the event. The sim is quite often very busy and you might have to be patient to get it. But all those hundreds of visitors can’t be wrong.

If you look really hard, lean forward and squint a bit maybe, you can see Enrico Genosse himself in this photo. He is sitting in front of the dog house on the left, taking a short break after inspecting the display.

On the right side, next to the bog dog house where Icicle the Polar Bear has been sleeping, you can see the two special project fur items by Vavoom! Chiva adapted these specially for Projedt Fur.

There is a limited edition Fuzzbee Toy which your avatard can actually throw for the dog (it’s like this one, but with a Rising Sun theme instead) and there is a limited edition donut bed, also with the rising sun theme. These are available all month and the proceeds go to the charity. Vavoom! has also pledged to give the money from all her sales for the week to PFJ too, so visit a Vavoom! Store and get something new for your VKC Dog!

Logan’s store (which she insists on calling Sandry’s) is also represented at PFJ. Logan and I were inspecting the display where Tweety is in charge as usual and we noticed that the girl next door (AzaliaTsutsuji Bosatsu of {PHRESH}) was selling little birds that sit on your hand. Cool (-:

It’s a bit of a maze at the Project FUR sim and Logan and I soon got lost. So we staggered around for a bit and it wasn’t long before we found…

Blu had been there too to donate some things from the LogSpark Store.

…and Lail had been here with furniture, the sweat lodge and the VKC Dog necklaces (that’s necklaces for avatars not for dogs, just in case you were confused) and her cool new logo for La’Core, which is sort of like hard core but more comfortable and girly. Actually, now you come to mention it, it’s not like hard core at all really.

Just when we thought it was all over, we staggered around another corner and found that Hosanna had been here too with the new dog house from the Perky Puppy store. I read Hosanna’s literature about the house, she says:

“This dog house by QBMM Enterprises takes its form from an outbuilding to the northeast of the Wada house in Shiragawa, Japan. This outbuilding is a kura (倉 or 蔵), or traditional Japanese storehouse that was used to store valuables. What more fitting building could there be to house your precious pet?”

Perhaps I should get one of these to keep Logan in.

 

Finally, we found ourselves back at the VKC stand again where Chiva Vavoom had just popped in to say hello. We had been gone so long that the big brown dog house had been demolished and replaced with Hosanna’s new one by the time we got back!

RichD’s Birthday Party

While many people seem to regard a party as somewhere to let their hair down, have a few beers and indulge in a little bawdy behaviour, I always find them educational and they enable me to understand a little bit more about humans every time. I learned some interesting things at Richd Tomsen’s birthday party.

First of all, RichD is mates with Mr Spock. This is the birthday card that he sent.

We’d been there quite a while and I had been watching RichD dancing with a purple alien woman and wondering where Eve was, when finally I realised that Eve is the purple alien woman. Am I the only one that didn’t realise and thought she was a human? She carries it off well.

This is RichD’s firework cake. Evie lit the blue touchpaper and we all retired to a safe distance. If you click on the photo, you can open a bigger version and if you zoom in, you can see that there was a girl in the cake!

I also discovered that RichD is also mates with the inter-galactically famous UtahCowboy Kayor who was singing and playing at the party.

But the best thing of all was the food!

Help Japan!

You may have seen the post on Logan’s web site about Tweety the Canary and how the proceeds of her sales are going to the Pacific Crisis fund raiser for the victims of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. Tweety is also contributing to the Help Japan appeal.

There are dozens of other people contributing of course, you can see all their great stuff at their stores in Chirihama or on their Flickr Group.

Impostard!

Dad was working on beta with Grandad who appears to have developed Logan’s shape and hat and WTF is THAT on his shoulder!

It’s an IMPOSTARD!

But don’t worry, you’ll soon realise that it isn’t the real Miller. The impostard’s acting is really wooden.
Aaaahhhhhhaaaaaahhaaaaahhhhhaaaahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa !!
