Gentese Scientifically Verified!

We have all poked fun at Gentleman Jim about his typo’s. In fact it has been suggested that a copy of the “Gentese Dictionary” be given with each new citizenship. So have you ever wondered why we can read Gent’s typo’s so well?

Below may be the explanation.

Tihs is Itnreestnig...

Ode to the IO from Jet!

They say most poets write from pain and deep emotional turmoil. I think it is true. Jet sent in a poem he has done which he says is inspired from being a tourist in OW rather then a cit. Once you have become a citizen its hard to come back as a tourist. Just ask Jet!
Here is a twist on a familiar prayer that Jet sent in to share with everyone.

Ode to the Immigration Officer

The IO is my shepherd, I shall want more
To be an Outerworlds citizen.
He talks to me in beautiful green text
He convinces my soul
To stay forever beside this virtual ocean.
Though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of real life
I shall fear no avatar, for he is with me.
My keyboard and monitor they comfort me.
He reminds me of registration out of the sight of others
He appears randomly, my typing interrupted
Surely grids and pixels shall follow me the rest of my days.
And I will dwell in OuterWorlds in the presence of the IO forever.


The times they are a changing!


Looks like somebody is having a good time!

Check out the table. Do these two know how to have fun or what??!!
Scotty aka BlooMonster and Tracy look like they are having a great time!
How come we weren’t invited??!


Shhhhh ... Don't anyone act like they notice anything.

We all pretty much accept one another just as we are, and some of us even become sort of famous in our community for our particular ... ummm ... "characteristic's".
Like ... we just accept it that kat wears a half dressed male avatar.

Like ... we just accept it that there is such a thing as a language called Genteze
Like ... we just accept it that Devilish has a tail, and we duck when she 'swishes' it.
Like ... we just accept it that red4now hits us with dead fish. and ...
Like ... we just accept it that Likee is blonde.
Here is a picture we snapped of Likee's car. Nice car huh? *Shhh .. don't anyone mention about the license plate.*

In the 1500's:

In the 1500's: There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house. This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could really mess up your nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some protection. That's how canopy beds came into existence.
************************************************************

Pssst …. Shhhhh ….

*Whisper’s* Ya know … We are all addicted to our OW Community...

But S O M E of us wrestle with our addiction a little more deeply then others, and express it in … errrr ... our own … ummm … ‘unique’ ways. Yes, that’s the word. Unique!

Not to mention names, but …..

Have you seen what Danii does with her food before she prepares her meals?

*looks around to see if she is looking*

Here is a shot that was taken in her kitchen as Danii was preparing to cook fresh veggies for dinner.

This isn’t a new problem for Danii you know … here is an ‘oldie’ that Danii wrote about
 3 yrs ago. 

It seems she also has been having OW dreams for a long time!

In the 1500's: Lead cups were used to drink ale or whiskey. The combination would some times knock them out for a couple of days. Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and the family would gather around and eat and drink and wait and see if they would wake up -- hence the custom of holding a "wake."

Have you ever had Dreams about OuterWorlds??

I have dreamed about OuterWorlds a few times. In fact ... I dreamed about virtual before I owned a computer or had even seen VR. I was shocked when 6 months later I bought my first computer and discovered AW. I was seeing the exact same thing I had seen in my dream months ago. hehehe at the time, I thought it was just a weird distorted dream because the people and environment looked so weird.

One time I dreamt that OW was a giant multi story old, old, old wooden hotel. The hotel had a lot of character and was very weathered ... did I mention it was very old? … You could tell it had seen a lot of changes, and much had happened within those old walls.

It seemed like all of us were staying there temporarily, sort of a lay-over on our way to somewhere else. Some of us seemed to live there, and others just staying shortly.

We all shared this big old wonderful building and had communal areas where we could all hang together and have fun, and we each also had our own little hotel rooms. It was an odd dream and very real.

One day Likee and I were talking and I just happened to mention my dream, and she said … Ohhhh I had that dream too! She also had a similar dream about OW, being a hotel that we all stayed in. Likee says, “in my dream, there is a huge prairie style building, more like a bed and breakfast type place, many stories and there are porches all around. Everyone has their own rocking chair on the porch.  We are all there together, smiling and talking.”

Dreams are weird, you wonder what makes you dream what you do.

Has OW seeped into your subconscious, and is it surfacing even in your dreams? Have you had a dream about OuterWorlds? Send in your dreams for us all to read. News@OuterWorlds.com or Radiance@outerworlds.com
