Just what it says on the tin.  This is the "core" set of music that kind of defines this Step for me; there are actually at least a dozen more songs that I could include, but really, this should be sufficient.  A few of the entries are power songs, the rest are the actual "sound track".  Not included:  gate songs. 

1. Pandora's Box, "The Invocation"
   
2. Alabama 3, "Woke Up This Morning (Theme to 'The Sopranos')"
   
3. Manowar, "Call To Arms" *
   
4. Barenaked Ladies, "It's All Been Done"
    *
   
5. Donny Osmond ("Mulan" OST), "I'll Make A Man Out Of You"
    *[/url]
   
6. [url=mulan%20i%27ll%20make%20a%20man%20out%20of%20you%20lyrics]Huey Lewis and the News, "The Power of Love"
   
7. Debbie Gibson, "Electric Youth"

We're well overdue for one of these, and I figured people deserved to know where things currently stand.

DW5, chapter 7:  Chris and I were about to go back to work on this just before the holiday season, but personal issues came up once more for him, scuttling that.  I've recently decided to go ahead as we've got everything well plotted out, and write what the muse inspires me to.  When Chris' life lets up on him, I'll hand off what I have complete at that point to him for his approval.  I really want to get this one off my plate after all these years, because so many other projects are chomping at the bit.

DW13, chapter 2:  Helen and I have this laid out very carefully, down to who will write which scenes, but she's come down with a case of writer's block.  I could shoot ahead and write all my scenes all the way to the end of the chapter, but too much of them really depend on the stuff she's going to do.  So this one's currently on "pause".

Other:  DW8 (Harry Potter) and DW-S (Sailor Moon) have both been demanding brainshare recently, and have had new material written.  And I've started writing the new prologue for DW-1

I've often heard it said that the knee jerk reaction of most people saying "There otta be a law" just creates more problems than it solves and the above link seems to support that idea.

Let's add some scary painted faces, big floppy shoes, and neon wigs to the fight, shall we?

Quote:Isn't it rich?

Are we a pair?

Me here at last on the ground,

You in mid-air.

Send in the clowns.

Isn't it bliss?

Don't you approve?

One who keeps tearing around,

One who can't move.

Where are the clowns?

Send in the clowns.

Just when I'd stopped

Opening doors,

Finally knowing

The one that I wanted was yours,

Making my entrance again

With my usual flair,

Sure of my lines,

No one is there.

Don't you love farce?

My fault, I fear.

I thought that you'd want what I want -

Sorry, my dear.

But where are the clowns?

There ought to be clowns.

Quick, send in the clowns.

What a surprise.

Who could foresee

I'd come to feel about you

What you'd felt about me?

Why only now when i see

That you'd drifted away?

What a surprise.

What a cliché.

Isn't it rich?

Isn't it queer?

Losing my timing this late

In my career?

And where are the clowns?

Quick, send in the clowns.

Don't bother - they're here.

Terra volta 34-44 so that would be the Freakspec. I had to ask around since Paragon Studio's has been slacking a little in listing the WST's for February but apparently it was in the newsletter.
Next Week is Apex 14-20

EDIT: because Yuku somehow ate the body of this post... but not the post itself.  WTF!?

crap.... I really, really want to play this.

For a certain definition, that is. I was on my bicycle this morning and was hit by a truck. However, there is currently no evidence of broken bones or such, just a knee sprain and contusions down my right leg.

Going 27 years without a bone fracture! Yay, me!

ow.

I am dimly aware that the suprebowl is some big sporting event... but as far as I'm concerned, it's new movie trailer time.

After some haggling about getting a ship build as close as possible to original OV-100 specs, the Space Histroy Reenactment Group quickly came to the conclusion that it was hard to realize. So they settled into getting an OV-200 with some custom additions.
== Known Quirks ==
* ''Good Morning Starshine II:'' The Class Quirk for this model ship. Similar to the class quirk displayed by the [[Three Graces], the OV-200 Orbiters need music played at the beginning of each workday in order to function at peak efficiency. Unlike the Graces, the same song ''can'' be reused (no more than three times in a row per any given month), but each Orbiter needs a distinct ''genre'' of music played for the best possible effect. ''Pathfinder'' likes music from the later 50s and early 60s.
* ''Docking is a go:'' ''Pathfinder'' is not able to land in any hangar that is not on a planet. Instead she can only dock using the International Docking Standard connector.
* ''Gusmobile:'' Many people who visit the Pathfinder will bang their heads somewhere more then once during their stay, even through all decks are of normal height.
* ''What happens in Vegas...'' The ships AI, modeled after Gus Grissom of the original Mercury Seven, has an unhealthy facination with 'CSI'.
