Tropean Rhapsody 
(To the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody as performed by Queen)
(Original Lyrics by Freddy Mercury) 

CHOIR
Is this a newsgroup?
for SF and Fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
between Tropea and Troy Heagy.
Open their eyes,
up from the "Dark Skies" and seeeeeeeeeeee

TROPEA
I'm just a poor boy, i get no sympathy,

CHOIR
Cause he's easy come, easy go. Is he troll? Is he slow?

TROPEA
Anywhere the topic goes...

ATF-S
Doesn't really matter to meeeee

CRONAN
Or afb!

TROPEA:
Cronan, i just pissed off Rev. 
Put my foot inside my mouth, shot it off, can't get it out.
Cronan, trolls had just begun.
But now i've gone thrown it all away!
Cronannnnn ooooooooooooo
I don't want to die.
If i apologize again this time tomorrow
carry on, carry on
cause it doesn't really matter

CRONAN
Too late, your time has come!
Send shivers down my spine, you'll get yours like I got mine!
Goodbye D.Tropea, to us you're known,
Got to take it up the behind and face the truth
Tropeaaaaaaaaaaaa ooooooooooo
Didn't mean to make you cry
but we sometimes wish you'd never been born at all!

BLACKHAWK
