New Babbage

A Steampunk Community

Given the minimum of destruction wreaked by the first event, we are pleased to announce the second Aether Salon will take place on Sunday, November 9 16, at 2pm slt.

Please note the scheduling change, from November 9 to November 16, due to a scheduling conflict.

All are welcome to join us at the Aether Salon in Babbage Palisade (located across the street from Her Dark Materials, & conveniently near the train station) for tea and a spirited discussion of:

Weapons!
with dangerous perilous stunning craft to follow.

We are thrilled to be able to announce at this time that our guest speaker will be Miss Ordinal Malaprop.

Known for her fine production methods, exceptional scripts, attention to detail, and ability to keep danger at bay with a variety of weapons and tools, Miss Malaprop will be well armed address the current state of weaponry in our times. Or, really, anything she wants to talk about at all. We've seen her armory and plan to be most attentive and polite.

Please bring your manners, keep your wits about you, and check your own fine examples of might and mayhem at the door. Sanus, wear a shirt.

Time allowing, we will attempt to revisit the ongoing discussion 'What's wrong wiff Bob?' However, should this need to be put off for another month, I doubt that anyone will mind terribly.

Looking forward to seeing you there (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Babbage%20Palisade/97/59/105/?title=Aet...) at 2pm slt

oh, may we bring in weapons so miss malaprop can autograph them?

Reply to This

well that's an interesting thought. Though we were hoping to have weapons checked at the door so as to limit the damage to life and limb the dome and windows. Also, it keeps the script lag down... which I'd like to do as much of as possible.

Do we need to set up the guard towers?

Tries to look stern and serious.

Fails utterly.

Does this mean you're going to send me to the cooler?

or somehow imply that what we have here is a failure to communicate.
