CSI:NY and Second Life

Your intrepid reporter was on hand last night as Csi:NY aired its long anticipated episode featuring second life. Well, to be honest I was actually puttering about the library when certain groups sent Im warnings about the expected in world flux of new people from the CSI and CBS websites. So i opened up my search engine and looked for in world events related to this.......and found none. I did find a CSI sim though and was quickly off to see if there would be any action to cover for you, my devoted readers....or reader.Sure enough there was a small crowd already gathered and it did increase as the show carried on. We all watched in rapt attention as the world we all know and love was portrayed as something of a halo fighting game. I was especially sad when they killed the furry! The poor white rabbit!
But we all joked and thought it was ok as long as interest in SL would be generated. Of course some boredom ensued and me and a few others began exploring this tiny Csi sim. Before too long we found what appeared to be a body on the third floor.....well.....it actually was a sex doll......and yes....some us took turns humping it.......just for posterity's sake.Remember its ranny talking here, and humping a sex doll in front of a large crowd is right up my alley. After the show we all waited for this "flood" of new members with sharpened teeth and rapt attention. It began to dawn on us that this was not the area they were pouring into. Luckily a fine gentleman named Luke located the place we were supposed to be. We all gleefully teleported expecting throngs of fascinated newbies bent on roman fighting and advanced weapon warfare...both of which CSI dramatically played up with theatrical abandon. What we found was yet another empty sim where the audio didn't work. But this was obviously the touted "crime scene" so we began to explore earnestly. And behold, we did actually locate some new people who had joined cold from the Csi web site platform. I found their newbie skins much better than the ones us geezers had to choose from but i swallowed my jealous nature and made friends quickly.So all in all it was a good night for your under-paid reporter as she was able to actually show a few of these sleuths the real nature of second life and its true inherent beauty, you know...the part they left out on the TV program. About a grand meta-verse created entirely by its users and all. Now don't get me wrong, after much discussion last evening I do believe it was good for second life in the long run. So kudos to linden labs and CBS for having the xcites to do this. .....The only thing I say?.....up against the world series....sheesh......but then again all the beer drinking trolls were over there instead of realising the possibilities that await them online in our beautiful world.....so its ok.But again i have to shriek......THEY KILLED THE FURRY.......KLINGON BASTARDS!!
