I'm fairly sure we still managed to draw a lot of attention to ourselves, however the whole place simply oozes sex appeal. I'd defy anyone not to look and feel great on that dance floor with such a crowd...."

Believe me when I say CodeRed isn't just about dance poles, please! A lot of sexy fun is still there to be had, and the grand opening is sure to be a hoot.

"Patty Wagstaff (née Patricia Rosalie Kearns Combs) (born September 11, 1951 in St. Louis, Missouri) is an aerobatic pilot from the United States. Wagstaff traveled all over the world as a child: her father was a pilot for Japan Airlines, and Wagstaff would travel to Southeast Asia, Australia and Alaska to prepare for her own career as a pilot. Her first lesson was on a Cessna 185; since then, she has earned licenses to fly multiple aircraft, including helicopters. Her sister, Toni, is a pilot for Continental Airlines.
In 1985, Wagstaff qualified for the US Aerobatic Team and competed until 1996. She was the top U.S. medal winner, winning gold, silver and bronze medals in international competition for several years. In 1987, she earned the Rolly Cole memorial award for her contributions to the aerobatic sports, and in 1991, she won her first of three US National Aerobatic Championships. In 1991, Western Flyer's Magazine readers chose her as their favorite pilot. She was the International aerobatic champion in 1993. 1994, the year in which her Goodrich-sponsored Extra 260 airplane was put on display next to Amelia Earhart's Lockheed Vega at the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum.
From 1988 to 1994, she won the Betty Skelton First Lady of Aerobatics award six times in a row...."
"A 1988 made for TV movie in which Valerie Bertinelli portrays Florence Pancho Barnes, a bored socialite who decides to learn to fly. After receiving her pilot's license, even though her ambitions get in the way of her love life, she becomes a stunt pilot, barnstormer, and even forced Howard Hughes to change his mind about unions.
Her career spanned such varied activities as racing against Amelia Earhart and training army pilots. Fine portrayal of one of the more interesting of the independent women from the 1920s. ~ Tana Hobart, All Movie Guide."

What has brought you to New Babbage and SL Steampunk?
New Babbage was the first sim I explored extensively. You might say, it was my first love in SL and will always hold a special place in my heart. IMHO steampunk is the most creative and dynamic subculture within Second Life. I will be involved in steampunk as long as I am in SL.
Could you provide a bit of background about yourself?
Marshal of the Royal Caledon Air Force...Publisher of The Connolly Telegraph...Owner/Leader of the Second Life Bloggers Group...Zoe Connolly is a Steampunk Girl who Sails the Seas and Flies through the Skies of Second Life. She is often seen in the 19th Century Victorian Steampunk and Gaslamp Fantasy sims of Caledon, New Babbage, and Steelhead where she is known as an Explorer, Gunslinger, Aviatrix, Steampunk Fashionista and an Ambassador of Steampunk to the SL Grid.
I'm looking for a builder for my new Connolly Telegraph headquarters in Port Babbage. If you know anyone who may be able to create a grand build that fits well into the New Babbage theme, do let me know.

Hello Zoe--I have a question: are you the same person for all of your adventures? I've been creating different avatars for different purposes--it's easier for me to keep up with my goings on. Although the drawback is not remember which avatar has which item/landmark, etc.
