Club Tributes To Dolly Parton

 

 On Tuesday August 25, noted singer and actress Dolly Parton died following a short battle with cancer. Earlier, we reported on a memorial to her. But also, numerous DJs were touched by this sad news. I would come across a few musical tributes for her. One was at Montecito Bay on Wednesday August 26.

 

Yesterday was a sad day for everyone around the world, we lost an icon. Today, DJ Cookie is choosing to honor her legacy by playing a full set of Dolly (with other guest artists too). Please join us for a tribute to one of the biggest and kindest stars in the world. 

 

DJ Cookie would play two hours of her songs, such as "What's Up," "Home Sweet Home," and "Love Is Like A Butterfly."

 

On the same day, Club Zero Gravity would have it's "Roman Holidays" party, which was planned in advance. But with the recent news, DJ Rose was playing just music sung by Dolly Parton, or at least connected to her.  Rose would play songs such as "Starting over Again," "All I Can Do," "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind," "Touch Your Woman," "Heartbreak Express," and the popular "Jolene" and "Nine To Five."

 

 At the Happy Vixen on Thursday August 27, the party had no set theme. But DJ Charlee would play mostly Dolly Parton music for her set as well.

 

Rest in peace, Dolly Parton.

Cartoon of The Day: Short Stories

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. That's me in my Dinkie fox reporter avie. And well, there are days between working overtime, real-life errands, and trying to make sense of real-life news that there's very little time to write anything. So sometimes it's time for a "short" story.

Halloween at Club Zero Gravity

 

 October is Halloween month, and there have been spooky parties all over. This includes Club Zero Gravity, the space station club of the Sunweaver Angels community.

 

 DJ Snowy (Skylark Lefavre) played the tunes in a Crux avie. Hostess Kylee Gracemount was costumed as a witch. Manager Mato (Matoazma Kazyanenko), was dressed as a nurse in case anyone partied too hard.

 

 And people showed up in all sorts of costumes, This included Sunweaver community leader Rita Mariner as a Ghostbuster.

 

It was a "spooktacular" party.

 

Club Zero Gravity has events every Wednesday from 4-6PM at Sunweaver Space (129, 249, 3597).

Cartoon of The Day: Party Gravestones

Taken at Club Zero Gravity. Among the Halloween decorations were some gravestones. Very picturesque and added to the spookiness. But the problem with a hard stone object in the middle of a dance floor is obvious, and at one point people joked about them.

 

Sometimes the best punch lines others come up with.

Cartoon of The Day: Dance Pet

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. Gil Otaared is often seen with her "Mini Me." But besides a small cuddly companion, another reason comes to mind.

Cartoon of The Day: Feeling Spacey

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. Someone showed up with planets, stars, and a cookie orbiting his head. Some, substances, can do that to your head. But feeling light-headed after eating too many sweets can have the same effect too.

Cartoon of The Day: "Tree-Mendous Outfit"

 

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. Looks like someone decorated her outfit with some tree lighting. But yes, it does make for a "tree-mendous" look.

Classic SLN Cartoons: Dancing on A Dalek

 

 

 Originally posted on June 2, 2010. The picture was taken at Club Zero Gravity sometime before, showing a kitty dancing on a Dalec. The ones on "Dr. Who" wouldn't have tolerated such behavior at them at all, but this one was bearing it. Or considering the girl had no clothes, "baring" it.

 

This would be the last cartoon published in the Second Life Newspaper, as it would close a few days later.

Cartoon of The Day: Victoria-Victorian

 

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. With the variety of fashions in Second Life, sometimes you get some interesting contrasts next to one another, such as this lady wearing something skimpy next to someone in Victorian-era fashion. Eventually this punch line came to mind.

Cartoon of The Day: Ghost Dancer

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. The punchline is the same as a cartoon for the old Second Life Newspaper in 2007, but it's no longer up.

Club Zero Gravity's Redesign, and Other Sunweaver Area Club News

 

Club Zero Gravity, the space club in the Sunweaver Estates, recently got a redesign, it's sixth in the club's history. Some things remain the same, but others from the inside and outside look quite different. Also, a club in the area closed down. But since it made no effort to contact the community, we never wrote about it, until now.

Cartoon of the Day

 

Taken at Club Zero Gravity. After a pun, this little vixen used a fainting gesture. So what could she be thinking, a popular catchphrase from the late 80s/early 90s came to mind.

Cartoon of the Day

 

 Taken at Club Zero Gravity. Someone appeared in an avatar of Michiru Kagemori, the main character of the popular anime "Brand New Animal," often called BNA for short. While they may be "beastmen," they still talk, wear clothes and shoes, etc.

Cartoon of the Day: The Ultimate "Rule 63"

 

Taken at Club Zero Gravity. Probably the second most infamous of the "Rules of the Internet" is Rule 63, "for every given male character, there is a female version of that character, and vice versa." While no one might be truly immune, I can't help but wonder of most men would be too nervous about pulling it off on Chuck Norris, the martial artist whom in Internet memes beats up almost everyone but Superman and the "One Punch Man."

Easter Scenes

Taken by Gemma Cleanslate  at her Philosophy class, or her "Easter Bunny Class." as she called it.

From the Easter event at Club Zero Gravity on Wednesday April 8. While DJ Snowbuns was "hopping down the bunny trail" of tunes, chocolate eggs were raining from the ceiling.
