Periodically Updated Thought

On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's going to make the fucking difference between winning and losing. Between livin' and dying.

I've got some flag football games today, and I'm going to fight for those inches.

Battestarwiki Projects

TOS Improvement Project

Priorities (in no particular order):

  • TOS Character histories
    • All but done with these.
  • Episode Guides
    • Basically done with the summaries, now we need to fill in questions, analysis, quotes, and notes.

Island of Misfit Images

I'd encourage everybody to check out the Island of Misfit Images, the home of some images that have been uploaded but not linked to. Hopefully you can either help them find a good home, or help identify ones that need to be deleted.

Podcast Transcripts

I finally caved and added this to my list. I always felt that my transcription was too slow, and preferred verifying, but I've been doing some transcription lately.

Development Pages

Experimental pages or pages in development that aren't ready for the main namespaces (yet).

Future Projects

  • TOS nitpicks - a neat link I found looking for Red Squadron info.

Steelviper's Thoughts

Pages in my userspace where I reflect on wiki or BSG stuff.

Kansas City Corporate Challenge

  • 2.5 Mile Bike Race: 7:25.12
  • 5k: 24:53
  • Volleyball: 1-3
  • Soccer: 0-2 (scored 1 goal)
  • 400: 0:59.537 (7th place for 2 division points)
  • Mile: 6:26.125 (8th place for a division point!)
  • 800: 2:29.669 (5th place in division A for 4 division points)
  • Duathlon: 1:28:58 (6th place in division A for 3 division points)
  • Flag Football:

Origin of Nickname

"A truly fearsome beast, the great viper of Arcadia possesses strength and tenacity unmatched by any other predator on that world. It coils around its prey in a crushing embrace, then finishes its kill with a deadly poison. The warriors of the Clan I name Steel Viper show remarkable tenacity in battle and in their service to our great mission. May they continue to serve with unshakable faith, and may their opponents learn to fear the fangs of the Steel Vipers."
-- From Birth of a New Society: The Collected Writings of Nicholas Kerensky, Strana Mechty Press, 3025

Known Aliases

I have been known to post to civfanatics.com, glocktalk.com, ar15.com, and bikeforums.net using this same handle. So if you see a Steelviper there, it's me. I also have a Steelviper account over at wikipedia now, but I've got about 5 edits.

Around here you may see me referred to as "Steel" or "SV". That's probably me too.

At GalacticaBS I'm known as "WikiViper" due to the abundance of Vipers there, and the fact that "Steel" and "SV" are both already taken.
