I have been doing a lot of research and thinking on what "the next level" is for us here. I want to ask all of ya'all if any of you are familiar with a game/simulation called Second life? This is a Virtual Reality world. Imagine what all these kids are doing in warcraft, etc. Only instead of missions, and quest, ect, it is just a virtual world where you can build, buy, sell, trade, go dancing, party, have concert, go shopping. You can even really buy and sell real estate in this world, there is a currency exchange just like if you were going over seas. Here is my thoughts,,, what if we created our own little southern rock town... have shows, get togethers, etc. So, we would all be looking at each others digital image in 3D and can even use mikes, etc so you can talk. So we could all be virtual neighbors, have partys, concerts, etc in our little world. I am looking into creating it now. If you want to "experiment" with the game or worlds, you can go to secondlife.com/learn more about it, it is free to download and play. There is only a fee if you get into buying and selling realestate, etc. I will get a professional account, create a town, maybe set it to private, invitation only, so we keep the riff raff from wandering in, etc. Hell, we could set up our own southern rock community, economy,

I put those in there for some of our younger single girls here. I'd more likely get more use out of the Needle And The Spoon Pharmacy and the Can't You See Vision Center!! ;D Hey, those videos are cool, thanks for putting them up. I have a better understanding of how it would work now.....kinda!
