    She's one of those people that ages very well. She just looks 'commanding' now:

    The actress herself also seems to have a more regal stance to herself in current interviews.

    And the character now... for me is the 'hit it out of the park' character of Picard.

       /me's jaw drops, as she realizes now what's at stake if she doesn't see this series.

    Maybe this is the penultimate me, and it's time to leave SL forever.

       Nooooooo…. *many echos*

             *more echos*

                      *A few more echos, quiet, but no less strident*

     

    [EDIT]

       @Madelaine McMasters, please don't send any napalm our way, but... I showed my husband the video... "She looks... as if some kid tried building a Carol Channing marionette. I can almost see the strings."

    My dark side is mild compared to most -- just different clothes :)

    That said, the object sticking up over my front shoulder in the picture is not a hilt... it's a frying pan handle.  Some things are better managed with bludgeon rather than blade.

       And here I thought it was a frigideira handle.

       Don't worry about making words up. I do that too. If I had a business card, it would say glossosynthecist on it somewhere.

    Finally I found nice hat for the summer. As a bonus point it's modifiable, yay! 🙂
    With just slight stretching along one axis it can be worn with the hair shown in the picture. No hair poking through the hat. Which is pretty cool. The items are:

    • Stealthic's Passion hair (mesh) - Inworld store: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Rapture/80/140/106
    • Summer Stroll Hat (mesh) - Marketplace: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Shimmer-Summer-Stroll-Sunhat/6022563

    I noticed that searching for hats in Marketplace is very frustrating thing. Lots of merchants are abusing key words, which is really sad. "Hat" is found in huge number of totally unrelated items! In dresses, shoes, bikinis, pants, etc, etc. 😡 😒

    Sadly this pretty much sums up the MP for way too many things.  

       I understand that LL doesn't have the available employee hours to police this. We residents sure don't want to spend all day doing it either. I did hear the suggestion of vastly reducing the length of the keyword field.

       I think it depends on the location or activity. If someone has a pretty poor computer, and they want or need to do something where it's very crowded, rendering no one might be the only way they can do it. Maybe someone wishes to avoid distraction. Maybe someone believes, mistakenly or otherwise, that de-rendering everyone gives them some other benefit
      The behaviors of a few people in a crowd will nearly always defy explanation.

    How are you feeling today?

       Tired. I'm up to give my daughter a ride to her work. It's early enough that my regular coffee shack won't even be open yet on my way back. And we lost an hour.

       I don't work today of course, so when I get back, I'll be faced with the dilemma of either going back to sleep for a bit, or just plowing on. I could make some breakfast, brew a coffee, and start my day. I might be a little loopy during Breakfast Club.

       I guess we'll see what happens.

    I would really love a cranio-facial massage right now. 

       The first time I had one of those was at the end of a full massage. It felt so good that I broke out in uncontrollable laughter. I couldn’t help myself. I actually began to feel very self-conscious about it. But the masseuse said “This happens a lot. Don’t worry.”

       She got a great tip.

    that's really rough Cindy, will you have enough to manage on? do you have people who can pick some things up for you?

    when i had surgery, friends were willing to help but each of them went silent after the 2nd time so i'm going to wait before asking for any favours.

       Dang! I’d have hung on until at least the third time, maybe even fourth!

    What are some of your pet peeves?

       HUDs that don’t play nice together in the screen space because so few people know how to make one that, even when minimized, won’t still occlude an underlying HUD to touches.  

       I don’t often use multiple HUDs simultaneously, but it’s useful to do so during avatar customization, and quite possibly other activities.
