15:06 Brace Coral sorry to say I don't have much to report. I've been wrestling with versions of FS that will allow me to stay online w/out crashing

15:07 Brace Coral lol
15:07 Brace Coral But I DO know there was a great response to the 1st monthly fundraiser event
15:08 Menta Black (mentadent) Dean of Development is just another name for Dean Of Slasa, right?
15:08 Brace Coral and I wanted to thank everyone who donated their time, energy, lindens and LOVE :)
15:08 Menta Black (mentadent) LOL
15:08 Brace Coral looking like, Menta :)
15:08 Menta Black (mentadent) ;o)
15:09 Brace Coral that's all for now, I still need to finalize some basic admin things with Carl and others
15:09 Brace Coral slow transition, but I'm glad to be here and rolling up my sleeves :)
15:09 Brace Coral Thank You!
15:09 Wordsmith Jarvinen And Caledon has become a place where there a multiple choices on almost any evening.
15:10 Wordsmith Jarvinen But Brace runs a high energy show and dialog.
15:10 Brace Coral we had a great time :) met so many people too!
15:11 Brace Coral made me feel very welcome
15:11 Wordsmith Jarvinen And, if you don't have $L's right now, don't hesitate to come and enjoy the music and company anyway.
15:11 Brace Coral yes! everyone is always welcome. it's about community too so very much
15:12 Brace Coral "Mix & Mingle"
15:12 Wordsmith Jarvinen Carl can't make it today, but left this: " Carl Metropolitan: Only thing I really needed to announce is that I did sign us up for SLnB online. So you can pass that on to people."
15:13 Brace Coral YAAAAaaAaAAaYYYy
15:13 Wordsmith Jarvinen SLnB being each year's SL birthday event.
15:13 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Ah good, was going to ask about that
15:14 Brace Coral so SL13B?
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen So, Oxbridge will again have an exhibit, being an exhibitionist sim.
15:14 Phrynne It's a lot of fun, like the World's Fair for SL
15:14 Phrynne displays, exhibits, freebies
15:14 Phrynne podcar tours
15:15 Brace Coral a really really great place to explore
15:15 Brace Coral take pics
15:15 Phrynne interactive stuff.
15:15 Phrynne and great builds
15:15 Brace Coral nods!
15:15 Brace Coral Welcome, lovejoy :)
15:15 lovejoy2199 Hello Brace
15:16 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne, you want to carry on?
15:16 Phrynne :)
15:16 Phrynne I've been working on updating notecards for the next version of the Faculty Info Kit, which is given out to deans, professors and tutors periodically. This is kind of big and complicated and takes a while.
15:16 Phrynne so you can expect to hear me say I'm doing it for some weeks.
15:17 Phrynne I've been helping people in the plaza and elsewhere, continuing to decorate for the season on campus, with little adjustments a few times a week.
15:17 Phrynne And I've installed a Troll Bridge on the northwest corner of the land in Oxbridge.
15:17 Brace Coral GASPS!
15:17 Phrynne It occurred to me that we sometimes get quite a few trolls -- but traditionally, trolls guard bridges and ask for tolls.
15:18 Phrynne We have not had a bridge.
15:18 Phrynne Now we have one, extending from the land into the water, sort of over where the sharks are...
15:18 Phrynne And there is a sign stating that it is a Troll Bridge, and that no goats are supplied.
15:18 Brace Coral hahahaa
15:18 Phrynne (couldn't find any grumpy enough goats)
15:18 Wordsmith Jarvinen And where the ejectees often end up.
15:18 Phrynne yes, exactly.
15:18 Phrynne So, if the trolls want to hang around the bridge instead of the plaza, that's fine.
15:18 Wordsmith Jarvinen You have to get your own goat.
15:19 Brace Coral makes note
15:19 Phrynne They could also use it as a diving board if they wanted.
15:19 Phrynne Or for tap dancing.
15:19 Brace Coral LMAO
15:19 Phrynne but that's what I've been up to, more or less.
15:21 Phrynne watches Brace wander
15:21 Wordsmith Jarvinen Having been tied up with RL this past week (and slowed down by tree pollen), I haven't done much in Oxbridge the past week. Some catch up on instructor stipends, excepted.
15:22 Wordsmith Jarvinen Next focus is on getting a CAT running in the next couple of weeks.
15:22 Brace Coral can't wait!
15:22 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) /applause
15:22 Phrynne looks forward to riding the CAT and taking photos
15:22 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) yay!!
15:22 Wordsmith Jarvinen (Caledon Air Transport). Jorge has suggested Dear Ophelia, since she has the shortest route.
15:23 Wordsmith Jarvinen And connecting with Brace re ad boards and sponsors.
15:25 Wordsmith Jarvinen We've also had requests for a class on appliers. So if anyone is already knowledgeable on them and has an itch to teach, come talk with me.
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen So, with that, we're open for questions.
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen and announcements.
15:26 Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) Brace Coral gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway.
15:26 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) raises hand
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen Andrea?
15:27 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Just a note on Tuesdays dance. Were invading Winterfell to dance a Medieval dance at the Hungry Dog Tavern. There is a nc in the ISC group or I can me imed directly. The sponsor board in the Plaza gives a lm to where I have a message board/nc giver for the next dance.
15:28 Wordsmith Jarvinen Sounds like fun.
15:28 Brace Coral great name for a tavern too :)
15:28 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Nods
15:28 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) has a sign board thatmatches
15:29 Wordsmith Jarvinen (thinks of lines like: "I'll meet you under the sign of the Hungry Dog")
15:30 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) nods, one day there will be whole village there
15:30 Wordsmith Jarvinen Which is better than meeting UNDER the hungry dog.
15:30 Brace Coral ha!
15:30 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) makes a note to rezz a hungry dog
15:30 Brace Coral is loving the bells...
15:30 Boomer Singh Isn't that how Rome was founded?

15:35 Brace Coral Anyone want a parachute?
15:35 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) no sokay, not going to ask
15:35 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Maybe too many people are preoccupied with their taxes to think about good questions...
15:36 Brace Coral a fave mode of egress from this location :)
15:36 Wordsmith Jarvinen Well, heck, in that case, we're adjourned.
15:36 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) oh
15:36 Phrynne checks, but finds no egrets
15:36 Brace Coral lol
15:36 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) how aboutthe horses,
15:36 Wordsmith Jarvinen Thank you all for coming. It would be boringly dull without you.
15:36 Brace Coral I'm sure I dont know where I put my flying horse ;p
15:37 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Maybe they left with the carriages
15:37 Wordsmith Jarvinen Rainy has given me a preliminary animated version of the horse, broken into separate pieces.
