I do hope Raak is not on of those SLers who has to have an SL wife give SL birth! I saw a video of that and the baby came straigh out of the stomach . . . something very disturbing about that!

Was that really Raak? Perhaps he's having an out-of-body experience.

[!Raak] 'Ere, oo are you?

[pen] The whole point of SL is to have out-of-body experiences, I think. I suspect that SLRaak has somehow got free and is posting here along with RLRaak. But, in this virtual space (where we can't see the giveaway goatee) how will we be able to tell them apart?

SL Raak isn't called Raak, of course. I think of her as an imaginary version of myself.

[Raak] So do I.

Just typing that gave me the creeps

She has a male shape and skin as well, but rarely wears them.

Going out to bang a few drums shortly, then various errands and home. Snow and ice is still lying here and there but the roads are all clear.

The roads are clear here too. It's bluddy cold though. I saw a small car (one of the 'moped cars' with a teeny engine that requires no proper driving licence) driving across the ice on the dog-leg shaped dead-end remnant of river called the Binnenmaas by the mill this morning. And a quad-bike doing power-slides and throwing up powdered snow on the ice too.

[Pen] This is a serious question as frozen rivers are a rarity where I live. How do the drivers of such vehicles (or even skaters and skiers for that matter) know that the ice is sufficient to carry their distributed weight? It sound rather fraught to me.
