Paradise Tennant: was really kind of a fun dream
Calvino Rabeni: Sorry, I missed that somehow, I thought you had a huge rabbit *for real*
Paradise Tennant: no a dream
Calvino Rabeni: Evidently, the bounds of credulity are rather elastic in my case
oO0Oo Resident: another good T-shirt slogan
Paradise Tennant: smiles at Cal :) a believer :)
--BELL--
Calvino Rabeni thinks he'd like to see oO0Oo wearing a T-Shirt with the slogan "Proximal Cause" w

Calvino Rabeni: "Distal Cause"
Calvino Rabeni: but I'm not sure which is the front
Paradise Tennant: smiles
oO0Oo Resident: lol just cusp
Paradise Tennant: hmm
Paradise Tennant: t shirt slogans ..
Calvino Rabeni: How about "Life as a Laboratory"
Paradise Tennant: at would be very apropo around here
Calvino Rabeni: Is that a good one?
Paradise Tennant: I like it
Calvino Rabeni: OK, suppose the other side of the shirt had an opposite, contrasting slogan ... what could go there?
Paradise Tennant: LIfe as a Laboratory Laboratory as a LIfe I would guess :)
Calvino Rabeni: I'm thinking along the lines of "Canterbury Tales"
Paradise Tennant: smiles been a long time since I read Canterbury tales :)
oO0Oo Resident: I'd like to attend a PAB session in RL, where the participants arrive first with digitized avatar images as placard fronts, then at some point they removed the avatar front and saw the person behind
Calvino Rabeni: Anyone have a story?
Calvino Rabeni: That must have been pretty radical when Chaucer wrote it ... I wonder if it was suppressed or it went "viral"
Paradise Tennant: hmm funny you know when you meet people in rl you know in sl ..very easy usually to recognize them
Paradise Tennant: smiles I wonder .. what viral would have been like back then
oO0Oo Resident: black plague?
Paradise Tennant: I do not have a story .. but I do have second part of the dream ..

Paradise Tennant: was out walking with the rabbit .. :)
Paradise Tennant: walks kind of bouncy
Paradise Tennant: but smelled nice .. that shampoo clean smell
--BELL--
Calvino Rabeni: I don't know whether I dream in scents or not ... maybe not often
Paradise Tennant: and we were in harmony in our thoughts .. his thoughts my thoughts all just kind of flowing together and making sense :) though he was more keenly aware of the vegetation than I have ever been .. was able to look at plants with his eyes and know how they taste :)
