One of these involves a comic book convention, Comic-Con, where EA tells horny guys people to take [...]
October will hold the fifth anniversary of when I joined Second Life under the name I came to refer to as my "main" account. I dabbled in it under various other identities prior to that but I never understood what it was really for and would often get bored after a few minutes (or an [...]
