Stroke of Good Luck
Words by Klaus Wagner
Music by Kevin Ludlow
Intro
(A) (D/A)
Been bitten by a stroke of good luck
Don't know where - it got me
Cause I feel no pain
Feels good again
Got some meaning now to open my eyes
Feeling good when - I look in the mirror
I kind of like this good luck
Feeling it
Where it takes me
I don't know
Where it leads me
Leave it forever not to be - no
Because I've been bitten by a stroke of good luck
And I - feeling its gonna be another
Good Day - tomorrow
When I go to sleep
And I don't care no more
Cause I'm gonna wake up in the blue skies
We'll be blue again
Where sun will shine
Cause the birds will fly
And I'll feel so damn high
Its good luck and I don't know where it came from
Kinda like that mole on my ass
But I like when its there
See its always clear
Please don't feel
And I feel good inside - outside
(BRIDGE)
(E) (A)
Feeling fair
Living free
Cause it's where everyone needs to be
(D)
Its in a place where they can - see
(A) (D/A)
Forever
And not think about what it would have been
Ohhhhh
Go
Go
Go, Go, Go, Go
Go
Go
Go, Go, Go

COMPOSICIÓN - EL AEROPUERTO
Muchas cosas están pasando en este aeropuerto. Hay muchas personas differentes y hay muchas cosas ver. Por ejemplo, Pepe está muy atrasado al aeropuerto hoy. Está muy atrasado y es menos orginizado que Luis. Ahora mismo, Luis está enojado mientras Martín y Julia están esperando en la sala de espera. Hay una otra chica en este aeropuerto se llama Loli, y ella es más bonita que Julia. Es muy bueno que Loli esté yendo a Mexico porque Mexico es muy bonita tambien. Loli tiene un sombrero grande y a nos gusta el sombrero de Loli. Es muy malo que Julia le olvide su ropa intima pero está bien porque recomendemos que Julia visite el doctor de cosmetica. Porque el vuelo de Martín está lista salir, recomendemos que Martín mire el tiempo. Hay un hombre muy interesante en el aeropuerto se llama Pepe. A Nos gusta el bigote de Pepe pero Pepe está muy atrasado porque antes del aeropuerto, fumaba mota. Este mañana, Luis se emborracho y ahora está demasiado viajar por avíon.

On May 16th, 2000 Dave Guezuraga and I launched a new type of model rocket that we had never used before. Dave was the engineer behind this particular rocket and it would seem in hindsight that he crafted the machine rather well. The launch site was set at Zilker park and though the sunset made for some scenic views, it was only the result of us getting there late. As a note, it's usually not a good idea to launch model rockets at night if you expect to find them again.
We had a rather large crew / audience for this particular launch which consisted of Eric Zavesky, Klaus Wagner, Annie Van Zandt, and Dayna McKay. The schedule called for at least one test launch of the Nike Cluster, but time permitting, two would ultimately ensue.
To give a peek into the power of this rocket, this particular rocket flew on D engines, specifically D12-3 engines, but it happened to fly on 3 of them at once! It was roughly equivalent to 24 class A engines.
The Nike Cluster - Launch Number I
 A bottom view showing off its 3 class D engine mounts
Launch Date: May 16th, 2000
Launch Time: 20:18
Launch Location: Zilker Park
Approx Landing Distance: 200 meters
How did we capture this footage?
If you happen to notice the glass looking thing sitting in the middle of the above bottom right picture, it is actually a 10-gallon aquarium. The purpose of having it was so that we could capture the footage that we did. Generally speaking, we would put it directly next to the launch pad with a video camera inside of it. For this particular shoot, the video camera was a Sony Digital 8mm. The aquarium simply helped to protect the camera from being destroyed.
The Nike Cluster - Launch Number II
 The ignitor hits all three D12-3 engines at once
Launch Date: May 16th, 2000
Launch Time: 20:48
Launch Location: Zilker Park
Approx Landing Distance: 200 meters
Notes: Rocket barely recovered. Sustained damage from landing in a tree, lost parachute and nosecone
In the interest of science and exploration, why stop at one launch when you can do two? Truthfully, it was probably not a good idea for us to have gone ahead and launched the Nike Cluster a second time. The sun was almost down and it was apparent that recovering it may be somewhat of a problem. The video camera we used to capture the images happened to have nightvision on it and I suppose we figured we had some sort of an advantage over the night sky. We weren't entirely wrong.
It took about 30 minutes to recover the Nike Cluster from the first launch and have it prepped for launch II. It just so happens there would not be a launch number III.

Ayer, miré El Mariachi, una peliculá de Robert Rodriquez. Fue una peliculá muy interesante y lo me gusta mucho. Hizo en Mexico cerca de la casa de los padres de Robert Rodriquez en 1992. Robert Rodriquez hizo la peliculá para solo siete mil dolares.
En la peliculá, hay un mariachi (Carlos Gallardo), una chica muy bonita se llama Domino (Consuelo Gómez), y muchos hombres malos. El mariachi es un hombre muy guapo y él toca la guitarra muy bueno. El mariachi es muy similar a un de los hombres malos, Moco, y hay muchos personas que quieren matarse. El mariachi usa muchos armas escaparse de los hombres malos y los especiales efectos de este son muy divertido.
Es verdad que el mariachi es muy guapo, pero Domino es mucho mas bonita que él. Duspues trienta minutos en la peliculá, Domino encanta el mariachi y traiga ayudarlo. Ella trabaja en un bar y le dice que el mariachi puede tocar en el bar.
Recomiendo que todos los personas miren esta peliculá porque es muy bueno y es la prima peliculá de Robert Rodriquez. Es mas bueno si vas a la Universidad de Tejas porque es la escuela de Robert Rodquiez.

Tango in the Night
Words by Klaus Wagner
Music by Kevin Ludlow
(INTRO)
(Dm - Dm7th) (Am)
(Dm)
Tango in the night
My legs filled with fright
She opens up the door
Never seen that much skin before
(Dm)
I popped up in some Marvin Gaye
(Em)
Like I had planned
(Dm)
Nights before
She stepped over to greet me
Shall I say
(Em) (Dm)
It was us by now
She gave me a big hug
Lemme smell her - all over
She said lay me down on that bed of yours
(Em)
Treat me like I'm a red head
(Dm)
Don't you stop tonight until I scream
Your name unto this smoke filled room
(Em)
Cause that's how I want it tonight
And I said - I'll give it to you
(Dm)
Might add some fright - to your pleasure
In my room
(Em)
(Dm) (Am)
And that's pretty much how I figured it was gonna go
I got it all figured out by now
I figured I tell her to come in my room
I'd put some music on
She gives me a hug - feels the wood
And we get at it
Because by god it's been a long six months
And I'm not even in the goddamn navy
So uh - let this foretold vision come to life
(F#) (B) (x3)
And I'll be a happy man tonight
