Cartoon of The Day: Energy Drink Kick

 

 Taken at the Happy Vixen. There was a rave going, and I wondered about what could potentially get someone into these colors.

Cartoon of The Day: Glow In The Dark Lion

 

 Taken at Club Lion. While there, I noticed one guy who looked like some glow in the dark paints blew up on his head and jacket. He explained he was usually a dark lion, and was funning around.

 

Still makes one wonder how something like this could have happened.

Cartoon of The Day: Colorful Shirt

 

 

 Taken at the Bellisseria Fairgrounds. Rainbow shirts are sometimes worn by younger residents. Older ones, not so much. We can sometimes think of reasons other than "Pride Month" for them.

Cartoon of the Day:

 

 Taken at the VWBPE volunteer appreciation party. The colorful rings on those retro-future dresses reminded me of something seen today, which were usually smaller. Which got me thinking of how such a dress could have come about by accident.

The Return of the Odd Ball

 

Even years after it first came to Second Life, the Odd Ball continues to wow and amaze people. Created by Tuna Oddfellow, a real-life magician, it's been described as a psychedelic experience without the side-effects by some. The event was on hiatus for a while. But Tuna recently brought it back.

Cartoon of The Day

From Book Island. This guy's outfit looks like a 60's "pie-dyed" job, though one can think of other reasons it got so colorful.

Rainbow Magellan Linden Statue at Costner Bay Island, "Squishy Pickle" at Houseboat Area

Going back to Costner Bay Island, the island in the Costner Bay, Whiskey Bay, and Ondine sims, I noticed some small changes such as a small outdoor workshop in one corner. But the most visible addition was an enormous statue of Magellan Linden, painted in rainbow colors, minus a green pickle it was holding.

The question of was the exploring Linden celebrating Pride Month . or had been zapped by unicorns was answered by taking a closeup, and seeing a "Second Pride" flag in his hand, the Second Life logo done in rainbow and on a white field. The statue was places by Abnor Mole, the flag by Naughty Mole.

The object in the statue's hand wasn't the only pickle in the vicinity. Going to the houseboat area next to Bellisseria's northeast, I came across a community center with a number of picnic tables around a wooden building. Taking a closer look, the building was named "The Squishy Pickle."

 There was a sign behind the counter "Menu: Pickle : 0L." With the lag, it looked for a moment like "U Pick : 0L." On the counters were a couple jars of pickles on sticks an avatar could click on, get one, and add/wear. There were also signs on the building of women with pickles and one picture of various Lindens and Moles with the pickles in hand.

So why is Linden Lab making a "big dill" over pickles at Bellisseria? Have they become fans of DJ Sheeba Metaluna and her "Flying Pickle Lounge"? Actually, there's a reason for the Lab's pickle joke, one that was explained in a chance encounter with one of the moles, the details which will be explained tomorrow.
