Humphrey the Whale

Blue skirt outfit just one of many free holiday gifts from LVS. It includes the belt with ringing bells. Bunny earmuffs by Chapeau tres Mignon.

I was about to leave the house today to do a bit of exploring, when who should pop over but Second Life heart throb Evo Witte. I was dressed for wanderings on winter sims in one of the FREE holiday gifts from LVS. If you haven’t already, get yourself toute suite over to the square outside LVS for loads of phenomenal gifts under the tree from both LVS and My Dead Kitty. Ravenlynn Templar is an extremely generous designer, and one of the reasons for the generosity this season is to help raise money for Toys 4 Tots. So please look for the donation box near the freebies and spare what you can.

Back to Evo. Now Evo is good-looking, funny and probably hipper than just about anyone else in SL. Back when Evo was DJing he was the reason for catfights among nightclub dancers, and when he lived down the beach from me, the dramas played out among him, his girlfriends and his GFs’ jealous admirers were much more entertaining than any episode of The Young and the Restless. Heck, I used to make popcorn just to settle down and watch.

From L to R: Evo, Humphrey, Devi, me

But enough history. After I showed Evo around the beach house, we went out back to say hi to  Devi Moonbeam - she stops by to feed the whale in the mornings. I just recently installed the whale, because I didn’t have enough room for him at the last place I lived. I mentioned to Evo that I hadn’t named the whale yet.

Sapphire Jetaime: We should name him/her.  What do you think?

evo Witte: humphrey?

Sapphire Jetaime: haha ok, Humphrey

evo Witte blinks

evo Witte: did he just fly?

Sapphire Jetaime: I keep seeing him hurtling like a space ship into the sunset. And yet he’s still here. No doubt I have his swimming path charted too close to the edge of the sim. But I look at having a flying whale as an extra benefit.

Thar she blows! Every once in awhile a whale hurtles through space and falls off the end of the earth at the horizon - yet Humphrey is still swimming in my bay!

Want your own orca? Go get yourself one from Jerry Martin at Exotic Fish Supply. And if you’re very, very good, he may even take you to the private sims where they swim wild. Just be sure you have the space. Nothing worse than a beached whale!
