Well, I'm sure I have more SF ephemera to go over, but frankly, I'm running
out of decent audio clips to play. So, this will be the last entry for this
blog.

Let's go over some of the groups our team gravitated to in high school.
When we last met electronically, I mentioned the word "Semanon". While it
sounds like a cult of some kind, it was just the backstage crew for the
high school theater.

On previous blogs, I promised I would return to extraneous points, so here
we are... In Episode 5, I mentioned that SF wasn't the only production
company in town. Must have been something in the water. I'm sure I'll get
some of this material wrong, as I was a bystander. If the parties involved
read this, let me know what I screwed up.

OK, let's wrap things up. The SF team began to break up in the late 80's,
and it became harder and harder to "get the band back together". It's
natural for this to happen--people have lives after all. I had found a
creative outlet in public access cable TV in Columbus, OH. I was involved
in two comedy shows, one of which resulted in an arrest (more on that
soon), then began ten years of the "Vast Wasteland" TV show, the ancestor
of one of our current podcasts.

We now move into the late 80's, and a bit of a hiatus for SF as people went
off into the world to get actual jobs, get married, get more degrees (I'm
looking at you, Beth), etc. In 1988, Mike and I created a 10th anniversary
set (just a set of clips, kind of like what I'm doing here) and the "Is It
Love" dance remix played in episode one. This took quite a lot of work
since Eric was unavailable, so we sampled his voice track line by line to
match the new tempo. Eric was quite surprised to later hear his voice on
something he wasn't directly involved in.
