Just because I'm imaginary doesn't mean I don't exist.

i = √-1, a.k.a., the imaginary number, since theoretically it has no solution, because when you multiply two negative numbers you get a positive number.

However, watch this:

i² = i × i = √-1 × √-1 = -1

i³ = -1 × i = -i

i to the fourth power = -i × i = -1 × i × i = -1 × -1 = 1

Interesting how you can get something real out of something imaginary, isn't it? But that's how everything works. Every invention, every book, every government, every philosophy, every faith, every human, and yes, the whole universe (okay, I'm a creationist) started out as an imagination. Put a bit of effort into an imagination, and one way or another you'll get something real and tangible, perhaps with surprising results.

Hence, my catch phrase.

Darn FFN and not allowing extended characters...

Also, given that not all of you are familiar with the songs I used in my fanfics, here are a few links to help you out.

For "Death of a Comedian" (One thing though, while the tracks I had (video and audio tape, and SOME on mp3, and one or two taken from memory) were painstakingly transcribed as best as I could, there isn't a 100 correspondence to ALL the tracks I found, given there are video mixes, radio mixes, and dance mixes of the same song. You'll also note that on some songs, I've switched the genders of the performers):

“In My Arms Again” (prologue) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNXlDzP2_qQ

“Somewhere Out There” (the whole song isn't played, it's just referenced, more or less) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRjb8sMjYu8

“Desesperada”(Desperate Woman, Spanish lyrics) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjgD9W3DnJw , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5hTbOBKFNY English lyrics, but the English lyrics don't fit in too well with the story.

“My Destiny” and “Little Girl” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5-9swcy688 (I did get the lyrics a bit wrong here, sorry)

“Every Breath You Take” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doFKkuzoawM

“I Want To Know What Love Is” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1LseoI2_bw

“Just Another Day” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yfu9egNOdA (John Secada is just slightly...forward on this one, but nothing blatant. Basically, a few beach scenes with a woman with, apparently, a strapless bikini...I hope... :P )

“Total Eclipse Of The Heart” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-T796qVyGA for the studio mix, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHZyYO5Yjhg for the live version. On that one, Bonnie Tyler apparently sings the song at the end of the concert, and her voice is cracking all over the place, possibly the same way Foxglove's would have :D

“End And Credit Theme”(Theme of Indiana Jones) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pNlMgH2p-Y

“Born To Be Alive” (long mix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3HciSe19gU and this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVgM7qeAlko for the short mix. Neither of them correspond completely to the track I used, sorry.

“Theme of Big Red” (got the lyrics wrong again) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCxiuuJVT-8

“Wind Beneath My Wings” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiS8YokFzeY

“My Heart Will Go On” (with scenes from the movie, including, well, you know, but nothing TOO graphic, I hope...) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uO_vFuzPJvc

“(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMoMBFhMdDw

“When A Man Loves A Woman” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5MmWdDkVE4

And for the last scene, if you have Google Earth, if you go to the following coordinates:
21º06'50.04"N
86º45'30.39W
And zoom as far in as you can, you can zoom out and follow the camera movement I described.

For "I Dream of the New Ranger":

"The Theme of the Wuzzles" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c82cAG6dOtE

For "Mary":

“Hey, Mickey” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHN16DCAy1E

“I Wanna Tell The World” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9NvsJwUXHw (starts at 2:30)

The final serenade was inspired (and some segments were downright ripped off) from Les Luthiers’ “El Rey Enamorado” The King in Love, from the album “Muchas Gracias De Nada” Thanks A Lot You’re Welcome http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y8-HD6aphA (starts at 4:30) Spanish only, sorry.

For "The Fourteen":

First, a look at the kits
