Show us more! We now have even more tags to add to
the memory palace, about the 2010 Reunion:
1) We were all standing here on the stage when one
the most disastrous train-wreck I've ever been a part of occurred: a
three-car pile-up during the performance the night before the Reunion, when
Twelfth Night came to a crushing halt because we all forgot our lines and no
one knew where in the hell we were in the scene.
2) Under the pecan trees here, Doc gave one of
those most eloquent lessons about a Shakespeare scene which I treasure so
much: about Twelfth Night -- he asked if I really thought Feste was
just another Dromio, and pointed out to Jayne that Malvolio just can't stand
someone SPEAKing, and impressed upon Kathy the necessity of making Olivia
available for love, and touched with Stan on Henri Bergson and Viola's elan
vital.
3) Here stood Jayne as Hermione, before the
audience, waiting to come to life again.
4) There Doc stood telling us heartful tales of
Miss Ima about the Houston Grand Opera and paint on her dress and his rented tux
-- as the sun set and the fireflies started to flicker and deer probably started
to draw near to listen.
5) At this picnic table, David Ziegler sat,
piddling his pants with a clear, hydrated stream, when Jon Watson launched into
"I only kill cats and dogs" ... in DRAG!
etc. etc. etc.
... if you include The Shelby in your app, there could
be more tags made, not all worth remembering, some about
sottishness.
So, work your dark computer programming arts and tell us
when we can all pitch in! And thanks so much for coming to the performance
and to the Dog and Duck to help everyone deal with the postpartum.

Hello friends! Above are links to virtual
Winedale scene I put together in the last few days (
screenshot
here). Download the appropriate package, unzip, and enjoy!
Note the quality and resolution dialog when you launch it; if
you're in doubt as to the strength of your machine, try lower resolution and
quality settings. I haven't spent much time optimizing this, but I'm
releasing early, and hopefully often. I built it with a prerelease
beta of Unity3, so there might be some bugs, YMMV. Only the barn is
textured now, the other buildings are placeholders.
My idea is to make
this like a memory palace, where alumni and well-wishers can chat and tag
locations with comments, stories, pictures, etc... Many of my most
treasured memories are geolocated, as we say, at this place, and I know I'm not
alone in that. I also hope this can benefit the endowment somehow.
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone on August 14th!
