Back in California .. for a day. Happy now?

There will be an important update later today. Short version: We’re going to clear the Cluster one last time in preparation for allowing you all to self-invite yourself to ThereIM.

(Taken with an iPhone)

    Michael Wilson, why don’t you stop showing off your wealth to everyone. Nobody gives a shit that you have a jet. You are still an asshole!

    • #5 by Michael Wilson on 2011.08.02 - 9:42 pm

      Where did I say I had a jet?

      non@non.com at 67.159.45.96, for someone that despises There and I so much, you seem to be paying lots of attention to this site.

      Maybe you have some repressed feelings for There, or me, that you need to let out?

        IMAKOS,
        Actually someone did piss in his cornflakes! Problem was that he thought OJ and cornflakes might be a good combination. Who wouldn’t be angry after consuming an entire bowl of cereal.
        What actually happened was that the short bus had a flat tire and never made it there to pick him up and take him to the pharmacy, for his medications. After that was his finger painting class.
        it sucks to be 16 and know your gonna miss out on the best game in town!
        BAD boy non, go to your TIME OUT room! Your grounded for 2 years with no computer, cell phone or TV!
        Oh, BTW son, I canceled your finger painting classes and made an appointment with the village elder who will try to help you with your many psychological issues.

    • #7 by IMAKOS on 2011.08.02 - 10:15 pm

      Well Well Well non, I guess someone pissed in your Cornflakes this morning, its Ok we get it.. your Bus ride to your daily finger painting class was cancelled.

    • #8 by Cellophane Thereian on 2011.08.03 - 3:18 am

      Uh- I don’t think this is a case of ‘showing off wealth’ buddy. I think this is a case of MW sharing ‘Where’s MW?’ to we Therians waiting on the edges of our seats with updates of his whereabouts as we know that as MW moves through the space-time continuum, working diligently as he moves from here to there to anywhere- we Thereians move closer to the There 3D open date.

      A Good Creator keeps in touch with those who’ve an interest in what he creates.

      And perhaps if thouest got off thou’s lazy, begruding, buttcakes thou could excel in something and enjoy the thrill of flying in a small jet also.

      Just throwin’ dat out dere…

  5. #9 by Tre_Ghost on 2011.08.02 - 8:18 pm

    lol when he said later today he meant LATER that’s for sure! Looks like I’ll be up till 3am eastern tonight lol. Good news though, upon my advertising the reopening on the crap 3d browser game I play, tonight I posted messages in the op hq’s page on fb for it, and an op that used to play there has been oblivious all this time about the reopening. So I have helped one old user find their way πŸ™‚

    Having to deal with Hartsfield Jackson International Airport I think my feet will stay on the ground. Awesome that you can get a pic like that on a plane now. Last time I flew was a few years before the TSA…. Wife and I are very excited for THERE To reopen and have gotten a pile of our other gaming friends who from watching the YouTube vids and checking out this post are wanting to check it out. Have a great one everyone, and keep safe.

  8. #12 by xSnoopy on 2011.08.02 - 7:08 pm

    Hi Everyone,
    For all of you who have been saying “ARE WE THERE YET?”.
    Think of yourself, in that jet, from MW’s iPhone picture.
    You look out of the window and see the buildings below you, streaking by and know your almost home!
    You look at the monitor, in the seat in front of you and know that, that is the runway your gonna be landing on.
    You say to yourself “We are SO close, I just have to hang on for a few hundred more feet”.
    Well, that is where we are, right now.
    We really are that close!
    Hope you guys are ready cuz, just like all of us GP’s, your gonna have that silly ass grin permanently plastered on your face for at least a week.
    For you, that is when the fun begins and for us GP’s, that will probably be when the next task begins.
    Hang on gang, were almost There!
    See you in ThereIM!!
    GP, xSnoopy

    I think MW wants you to know that you are looking at the world… it all comes crashing in a matter of seconds. Luckly, MW has a parachute and was able to save himself!

    Or maybe some dumb ass pilot was in class C airspace too low and didn’t pay attention flying IVR or VFR.

I did the Heaven Quest and got access to Heaven (beautiful place). Wonder if our saved spaces will still work??

    My entry the other day was likely derived from jealousy. Yes you can be anywhere in the world and conduct business. As long as you have good people working for you which you do. You have reassured that. So the breathing down the necks of your Engineers was plain silly. I would do the same thing if I were you. Go to Fiji or other tropical places. Maybe the Philippines. Japan in the past but hold out on Japan a while. You live the good life MW. I don’t need to fly to these places. I should just get a good mileage car someday. I just live 166 miles from SF so maybe I should just drive down there and enjoy myself. Get out of the mindset of this little town. Put all the pics up from your travels. Now that you are back home you have your memories and we can just pretend we were there too by looking at the images. I do have memories from virtual worlds too. That is why people want There back online because we can have some good times. Create yourself a nice place to be. Make friends. Live good. You can live like a millionaire in a virtual environment. A person without much in real life is on the same level as the rich in a virtual world. We are all equals.

    It is good to be hearing that things are improving!

    I had posted this Shel Silverstein poem the other day and it reminds me of our journey home.

    “There is a place where the sidewalk ends
    And before the street begins,
    And there the grass grows soft and white,
    And there the sun burns crimson bright,
    And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
    To cool in the peppermint wind.

    Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
    And the dark street winds and bends.
    Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
    We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
    And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
    To the place where the sidewalk ends.

    Yes we’ll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
    And we’ll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
    For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
    The place where the sidewalk ends. ”

    (Where the sidewalk ends by Shel Silverstein 1974)

    Wonderful news…
    now I don’t get this picture? Is your plane crossing the plane down below, or …are you ..I just don’t get the position of whatever you are flying in! LOL LOL

    • #112 by GaryBob on 2011.08.02 - 10:00 am

      I’m fairly certain there is a camera on the tail of the plane and he just took a picture of the video screen – you can even see the reflection of the cabin windows on the left side of the photo.

    • #113 by DavyRocket on 2011.08.02 - 10:11 am

      I think he was using a hoverpack, and needed the plane to follow to get home πŸ˜‰

      • #114 by GaryBob on 2011.08.02 - 12:44 pm

        That’s my second theory. My third is that he tied himself to the tail in order to do some serious “cloud” research on the trip home.

      • #115 by SnyperFla on 2011.08.02 - 2:17 pm

        now that’s dedication!! ^ lol

        I would have rather them bail out Ther.com rather than Fanny Mae/Freddie Mac! At least that way the public would have got something productive for their money! lol

  83. #128 by Helhound on 2011.08.02 - 8:26 am

    It’s not that safe flying on the outside of your plane Mr. wilson! i’m pretty sure you’d be more comfortable on the inside πŸ˜› haha

    • #129 by Tre_Ghost on 2011.08.02 - 10:28 am

      Don’t be silly, he’s not flying on the plane. Hes using a jet pack and just happened to fly by that plane, duh winning.

      • #130 by SnyperFla on 2011.08.02 - 12:45 pm

        ahh.. that would explain the aerial shot of the plane ‘tu rofl

      • #131 by Seg_Vio on 2011.08.02 - 1:44 pm

        Lets hope he’s on a flutter bug instead of a hoverpack….If I see him in the sky on a hover pack, I’ll send him back to Hawaii via a couple of paintballs!

  84. #132 by IMAKOS on 2011.08.02 - 8:23 am

    • #143 by Michael Wilson on 2011.08.02 - 9:38 am

      Goodness no. It’s kind of hard to find a place to refuel between Maui and California.

      • #144 by calliekitty on 2011.08.02 - 10:51 am

        Lol, I would think so unless there are seagull now carrying fuel tanks on their wings….but one never knows with those smelly buggers!!

      • #145 by Ant1977 on 2011.08.02 - 8:31 pm

        How about a Falcon 50?

      • #146 by Michael Wilson on 2011.08.02 - 9:39 pm

        Better guess. But still not enough range.

      • #147 by rip on 2011.08.03 - 8:20 am

        falcon 900 or 2000 is my guess

      • #148 by Michael Wilson on 2011.08.03 - 8:41 am

        Even better guess, but still incorrect.

      • #149 by Lukas on 2011.08.03 - 5:54 pm

        I think it might be a 7X.

      • #150 by Michael Wilson on 2011.08.03 - 6:16 pm

      Oh my!! How do you know you’re addicted to THERE? ……………When you start thinking THERE thoughts! LOL

      • #154 by GaryBob on 2011.08.02 - 12:40 pm

        You’re addicted:

        When you dream a happy dream about falling from the top of a mountain.
        When you hear the IM noise in other people’s ringtones.
        When you develop an irrational fear of of the words “Segment Violation.”
        When you attempt to combine a skateboard deck and several blow driers into a hoverboard.
        When you say emotes outloud (“TickticktickYAY!”).
        When you loan things out only to remember you can’t just reclaim them to your inventory.
        When you try to light your cocktails on fire.

        Any other warning signals I missed? πŸ˜€

      • #155 by Lady_Tigrane (lady_tigrane@yahoo.com) on 2011.08.02 - 5:20 pm

        When you redecorate your home then decide you liked it better before, but cant put it back because real life doesn’t have paz layouts.
        When you realize you can’t go into space without freezing to death or burning up upon re-entry.
        When you get shot by paintballs in real life, those suckers HURT and you don’t just slide then get up.
        When you get in a boat and it doesn’t fly.
        When you write an email to a friend and they reply “what does ‘rtr mean?”

      • #156 by mmeodiles on 2011.08.02 - 7:47 pm

        ‘tu πŸ™‚

      • #157 by Delthos on 2011.08.02 - 8:20 pm

        when you try to walk on water and you end up drowning
        when you put on your favorite bunny slippers and you run the same speed as before
        when you crash in you dune buggy and it really hurts

      • #158 by Drake Steele on 2011.08.02 - 11:27 pm

        When you go to run over your friend and send them flying off, expecting them to laugh…
        …and end up with a life sentence without hope of parole. (ouch!)

        When you go running off into the ocean expecting to be able to keep going…
        …and end up slogging thru chest deep and washed back to shore by the waves.

        When you put on your backpack and keep twitching your right and left mousebutton fingers expecting to fly.

        When you drive your car out to sea, thinking you’ll go crazy fast…
        …and sink.

        When you go to your local shirt shop, and make a shirt, send a copy to There.com for approval…
        …and think nothing of it when it 3 months later you haven’t had a reply.

        LOL. – Drake.
