           (Tune: "Whatever Became of Hubert?")

           Whatever became of Cthulhu?
           Has anyone heard a thing?
           Did He die with a wail, with salt on His tail?
           Or retired with the Emperor Ming?

           What's become of cold horror and madness?
           We are missing His malice and badness!
           How can we His absence endure,
           Are the Old Gods returned to obscure?

           Are the horrors of H------ co-opted?
           Have the Goat's children all been...adopted?
           Disappeared in dimensions arcane and unknown
           Gone away with a wet, squishy plop...ted....

           Does Cthulhu, at R'lyeh, lost under the waves
           Dream still of the Sacrifice no hero saves?
           Are Your priests and Your minions now through?
           Cthulhu, what happened to You?

Copywrite Status??  I dunno, if you mean as to when and who wrote it, 
It was written in February of 1991, at the University of Kentucky 
by William G. Henderson, Eric Fitzwater, and Doug Deitemeyer.

They did indeed fold. Some suppliers of Filk tapes still carry a bit of a
backlog, but apparently the partners split in a not so nice manner, so further
tapes from them seem to be impossible.

Gimme a break!  The whole reason for the tension between Sisko and Picard was 
because of Sisko's denial of his trauma, not properly grieving, etc.  It was
"the wormhole folk" who revealed that to Sisko in a very powerful way. 
Showing him that he was still "living" in that moment and in that place was
very stunning.

RE: Off-Centaur Break Up, Rick Weiss authored two articles in _The Filking
Times_ that covered this area pretty completely.  His sources were the legal
filing papers themselves as well as interviews with Teri Lee & Jordin Kare,
principals in the lawsuit.  I've hesitated to release these articles to the
net due to copyright concerns, but it looks like this needs to be done soon
since the topic keeps coming up.  Feedback from the parties concerned tell us 
that the articles are very fair & present the issues clearly.

Off Centaur is indeed out of existance and has been for some time (October of
1987 or March of 1988--depending on who's telling the story).  If I were you
I'd make backup copies of anything I wanted to keep as most of the stuff is op 
and will not be reprinted for various legal reasons.  There are still some
copies of old tapes around but supplies are very limited and when they're gone 
that's it.  You can try calling Wail Songs at 1-800-TON-WAIL and asking which
ones they have in stock but their inventory is pretty low.

Yea it was one of those 60's westerns starring Chuck Connors, I

G-D Squad
I am overjoyed
To meet you in this place

Because no
We've got cause
To rub this in your face

I've heard your preaching
Spreading all your lies

You must do well with sinners,
Cause you sure can sympathize . . .

So
You
Know about vice,
And you think it not nice,
I DON'T fault all that you say,
But you say it in such an obnoxious way [line spoken]
You preach about sin
And the mess that we're in,
G-D Squad, Where have you been? [line spoken]

Every week I hear how we're the worst sinners by far,
you talk about these people and you don't know who they are,
Of all people,
These aren't the worst I've known,
Let they that have no sin
Be the first to cast a stone.

So
You
Gather like mice,
And you try to entice
More to help you preach and call
Who told you you know it all? [line spoken]

I don't know your game, 
But you all seem the same,
Giving faith a very bad name!

		      I-CON XII FILKSONG CONTEST
				   
     I-Con (the East Coast one, not the older midwest Icon or the more
recent Canadian I-Con) is having a go at its annual filksong contest.
The contest is open to any sentient being, whether or not they plan on
being at the con, and any filk that fits the following criteria:
				   
1)   Filksongs must be at least partly original -- words and/or music
     must be original.  Be warned however, that if you write a new
     tune to someone else's words, you must have their permission (in
     writing, submitted with your entry) to use those words.
				   
2)   Lyrics must be submitted in typed, hardcopy form, or in flat
     ASCII on a PC or Mac readable diskette, or via private e-mail
     to the contact eddress at the bottom.  If you choose to use e-mail,
      please use the subject title of "CONTEST ENTRY" on your letter.
				   
4)   Lyrics must have been unpublished in paper or electronic form as
     of January 1st, 1993.  (Note that is represents a correction of

up at the con.

to keep our options open).  However, we get no other rights to it --
you retain the copyright (so include that copyright info, folks!).
