Sometimes it takes a parody like this to remind everyone what life is really about. GetAFirstLife.com is a funny one-page parody of ultra-hot-spot-of-the-moment virtual community SecondLife. It's a one-joke punch in the shoulder that reminds us that even though we might spend a lot of time in the virtual world, there's a heck of a lot that's interesting about the real world.

Oh, and as a funny coda to the whole gag, laywers working for SecondLife owner Linden Labs sent an "un-cease and desist note" to GetAFirstLife.com owner Darren Barefoot. Who wouldda thunk that lawyers could have a sense of humor? Way to go, Linden Labs!
