And I quote:
"I've listened to your mp3 selections, and I definitly see a pattern of what you're going for - epic marches!
"Well, since it's not going to be orchestral, my approach will most likely be to incorporate some orchestral elements, whether it be strings, brass, choir, into a rocking / synth score, with an under current of marching percusion blended with a hard beat. It will take shape once I get the foundation started, and I'll better determine what elements and dynamics I would be putting in as it goes along, but thats the general idea I get in my head for starters. Sound like a plan?
"I guess from here, once you get part 1 of the funds together, I'll get started right after!
"Thanks!
"Frank"

Just to check, re: Mr Frank Klepacki...
if anyone's suddenly found a spare couple of hundred dollars under the sofa, do feel free to say so. We've /probably/ got sufficient for the $1k option, assuming those who have stated their contributions can make them, but more pledgings couldn't hurt.
Otherwise, it's all systems go in twelve hours' time for Phase 3. |

[22:46] [Moltare] Not to put too fine a point on it: Who would like to see a FLEET theme tune composed by Frank Klepacki, composer of the C&C music and other classics of the genre?
[22:46] [Echo[Fox-Coon]] :O
[22:46] [Vornotron] :O
[22:46] [Silver_Adept] Dood!
[22:46] [ToxicFrog[wr0k]] !!!
[22:46] [Blakey] o_O
[22:46] [Mork] !
[22:46] [Echo[Fox-Coon]] Woah.
[22:46] [JimStarluck] !!!
[22:46] [Mahmoth] Dear Goddess...
[22:46] [Vornotron] !!! O.o :O !!!
[22:46] * ToxicFrog[wr0k] wraps his head in duct tape to prevent his soft, tender brainmeats from exploding.
[22:46] [Thalass] ...
[22:46] [C_tiger_work] *boggles*
[22:46] * Thalass faints
So then. Three minutes of original Frank Klepacki work to our specification, fully available for our use in any project that is not a commercial computer game. $1000 for a C&C style theme tune, $2000 for a full orchestral work.
How much can you put forward? |

Since my leaving to go to Dad's for the weekend last Friday and this evening, my mother and stepdad have managed to throw off the shackles of the progress they had made towards accepting the fact of my recent failure.
With the result that I got to hear the You Have Failed Us speech again, followed by the You Have Ended Your Life speech and the We Think You Don't Feel Bad Enough About Having Failed So We're Going To Describe How We've Been Having Stress Attacks speech. And the cloud of happiness and joy descends over the house once more.

So, my father opens the oven.
He takes out the chicken roasting therein.
He brandishes his basting spoon.
And he tells the chicken "All your baste are belong to us!"
I'm left with WTF spurting from my psyche at firehose pressures. |

www.funkyhorror.net/moltare/stuff/bc05/ has pictures! although about half are of scavenger hunt things or fireworks.
Also, went to type 'Dalpak' into something at work today (it's a brand of butter) and ended up writing 'Dalek'. Yes, it seems I am unredeemably geekeh. My coworker was heartily amused at my expense. |

Obligatory Harry Potter referencing post, spoiler free for your viewing pleasure:
Read it this morning, hurriedly, since my mother was eyeing it up greedily. Was pleased to note that Rowling's settled into her progressively darker style after two rather weak books - less adolescent whining all round and more paranoia and intrigue, very nice.
Narrative Convention continues to be my friend and companion; I can safely claim to have worked out the identity of the titular HBP ahead of time, and had called the identity and time of death of this book's clog-popper back when book two came out. ¬¬ A number of surprising and good plot twists, though, kept it being at all pedestrian.
Harry's, erm, 'beast' is a bit new on the scene, though, innit? Maybe he should train it like an amorous version of Sam Vimes... |

One-word review of War of the Worlds:
STRIIIIDERRRRR!
Furthermore, a list of all similarities between the original book and the film:
a) Mars attacks Earth with three-legged mechs
b) Red weed
c) Ogilvie has a cellar
d) Earth's secret weapon
Which, frankly, is two more than I expected on entering the cinema.
Most enjoyable, all in all, even if it does use the tired old 'Dysfunctional family has all its problems solved in the process of the destruction of civilisation as we know it' gag. |

Update as concerns: My life.
1) Papers being re-assessed as of tomorrow.
2) If the reassessment is not sufficient (which is likely unless there's been a stunning cockup) I shall re-enroll into the 3rd year and resit the exams at the end of it. Heavy workload, but damned if I'm going to waste three years' work over a set of exam woes.
3) If the college gives me any crap over any aspect of this, I have about five different sources of backup all prepared to go in like the US Marshals to hold my flank.
4) I have summer job yey; this means I shall have funds for said year. Promotion and payrise over previous job, too, which is le tasteh.
5) Going to do some writing in my spare time; various persons may relax in the knowledge that Project: SGU will continue as planned although slightly delayed.
6) Shall go back to the fencing lessons, 'cos I miss all that.
7) STAND BY FOR MINNND CONTROLLLLL |
