RIP, Gerry Rafferty

Gerry Rafferty has passed away at the age of 63, due to liver disease. May he rest in peace. I didn’t think I had ever heard of him, until I listened to Baker Street. So I have heard of him, I just didn’t realize it.

And now I’m desperately trying to find out where I’ve heard that song before—I think it may have been used as part of an opening intro for a live action show in the 80’s or early to mid 90’s. The closest I can find is She-Wolf of London, after they turned it into Love and Curses. But that’s not quite right, after comparing the two. Does anyone know where else it might have been used?

Writer's Block: Clash of the Titans--Plus A Meme

[Error: unknown template qotd]

I am usually the very last person to find out about serious drama going on anywhere. If I do see it, I probably just wait to find out what's really going on before I decide which side I am on. I do my absolute best to avoid getting into any flame wars, and stay out of ones already in progress.



And now, a meme, taken from frito_kal:

I have played or am playing in RPG's the following characters: Meggan (movieverse Marvel), Illyana Rasputin (Magik, comicsverse), Rahne Sinclair (Wolfsbane, movieverse Marvel), Illyria (from Angel), Willow Rosenberg (from Buffy), Wash (Firefly).

Give me another fandom and one of those characters, and I'll write a short piece. Probably drabble-length, give or take a few words.
