What is that due out on? The Sega Genesis or seething like that?
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Brief commercial break:
For folks who remember Infocom, or more recent fans of IF, Get Lamp is a fun documentary about text adventures. [link]
I've been watching it in pieces all week. The DVD is a bit spendy, but the movie is about 2 hours, and there's a second disk with at least another hour of footage that didn't make the final cut, and extras, and several dozen recent IF games. And a shiny coin! It's clearly a labor of love and well worth the price if you liked those games.
One of the most interesting sequences to me is about how blind people loved those games, since they were accessible in a way traditional video games weren't -- although the whole "it's too dark to see" thing was a bit weird for blind players.

I guess the President didn't want to make a political statement, buy piling on or spiking the check. Who knew.
Fuel increases by one.
Raiders 3 & 4 move to sector 3.
Jump track advances to 3 (Blue -3), so if you want to jump, you can, at a cost to population.

While dealing cards to Helo, we ran out of Tactic cards (Purple). So that deck has been reshuffled.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Priority should probably be getting those Civvies into Sector 5 where Apollo can cover them. We're two raider activations from losing the ship in Sector 4.
I'd suggest XOing Boomer to do it so she gets out of Sickbay before the start of her turn.

I was thinking that that was what I wanted to do anyway. So I will play a G1 to XO Boomer with a request that she move to communications.
I choose not to move and remain in the Press Room.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ok! I like Helo's plan. He's the man with the plan, right there.
Move to Communications
Action: Check out ships B and D
"Hey guys, what's up? Oh, this is Lieutenant Valerii. Yes, that's right, the one from the news. This is better though, isn't it? I mean, you don't have the press messing with what you say. They always wanted soundbites, you know? 'Um... could you put that into a soundbite?', that's what they were always asking me. Now we can really talk, you know? So... How's things? ...Cylons? Oh yes, they're flying around out there somewhere. I wouldn't worry too much about it, they never seem to hit anything. You'd think we were in the original series, wouldn't you?"
"Hey, listen, could you guys do me a favour? Could you send me over the ship's manifests, you know, the people and the stuff you have on board? Oh, we're having a scavenger hunt over here. We've got to find things, like a writing pad without the corners cut off or Admiral Tigh's missing wife, that kind of thing. I'm a bit behind, I spent some time in the Brig (long story), so all I have so far is a shiv. Oh, and a Cylon (giggle). Don't worry, she's harmless. Friendly, even. That one's worth almost as many points as Ellen Tigh. Oh! Imagine if Ellen Tigh was a Cylon! You could win the whole game with just her!"
"Anyway, if you could help me out here I'd really appreciate it. Send over the lists, and if you have anything good, I'll get you to move up near the launch bays and pop over and get it."
