   lol   
   So would I if I had the money and or scripting skills! (:   
      
   Actually, after posting my last reply, I thought that there really isn't   
   much difference between SL and BTL (except for the interface that is).   
   You can do all the same stuff as in BTL.  Like walk through a door and   
   be instantly teleported to a beach, rez bikes and cars on the beach and   
   drive/ride them, go golfing and have Marlene Munro in a bed on the golf   
   course, have children with someone, dress any way you like, eat and   
   drink anything you want in restaurants, go clubbing, whatever.  About   
   the only thing you can't do, is pull unlimited amounts of cash out of   
   your pocket, unless of course you really do have unlimited amounts of   
   cash. (:
