Saint Patrick’s Day 2014
What’s Saint Patrick’s Day in Second Life without at least one stop in the Dublin regions, especially the Blarney Stone? I was there for a time today; and, while I couldn’t hear the music (a sound-card condition I plan to remedy with a new computer before this year goes out), I could see that everyone — more beyond this photo — were having a good time. Whenever there’s something happening in the Dublins, you should get there; the DJs are great, whichever bar or venue you stop in at.
Post 750 — Bloomsday, Dublin
It’s my 750th article for Around the Grid! That’s pretty good longevity, I’d say. I wanted to do something special for such an auspicious number, and the Writer’s Almanac stepped in with a convenient fact. Today (June 16) is Bloomsday, the day depicted from beginning to end in James Joyce’s Ulysses. So what better to do than to hang out for a time in the Blarney Stone in Second Life’s own Dublin, do a bit of a walking tour, and put something up on the blog?
