VANGUARD AND FLEET NEWS
Mid-Afternoon SMT (Sicky Mean Time)
SickMan lay fast asleep in his ISD shaped bed, there he snoozed away wearing his Vanguard Pajarma's (with matching Night-cap)
Kyra, SickMans HRD (Human Replica Droid) stealthily creeped into the room, it was time to wake the him up, now what was the best way?
She looked at her flamethrower, nope, the anti-kill Sicky program make here head itch if she thought about it, plus she liked her assignment, since being activated her role as protecter/assassin had job sent her around the galaxy, the assignments were brilliant like the anti-beer people, people who owed Sicky money from card games, and of course tree hugging rebels, plus life on the VAN was amusing, even though she picked up some habits from Sicky, such as watching TV and drinking various alcoholica drinks, but overall being Sicky's personal HRD was cool.
Now back to waking the old geezer, shouting that his beer stash had gone would be no good, she'd only have to resuscitate him after, so she went to the fridge, as per usual it was fully loaded with beer and a old sandwich, she took a can a walked over to the sleeping VA, she cracked open the can and Sicky eyes suddenly open and his sat up like a spring.
"Afternoon Sicky, time to rise and shine, there's a ship report to do, people to annoy and beer to be drunk"
"Okay, anything new in my mail?"
"Nope, just the usual"
"Ok, time spring into action then"
And with that SickMan truddled down the corridor wearing his Van carpet slippers in search of a big pot of Caf.

Starting this week, I will begin selecting an IRC Quote of the Week for inclusion in the COMM report, and to be displayed on the upcoming new COMM site.
What can the QotW be you might ask? It can be pretty much anything amusing or taken out of context said on IRC in an EH channel.
Nominations for QotW can be sent to me at io@absolutek.ca. The person who submits the QotW will have there name prominently displayed beside the winning entry, and possibly at a later date, win a medal (I will have to talk to the TO first though). Any EH member from any subgroup may submita QotW nomination.

Ship Scale Site
08:32 - HA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
Something a bit off topic...I came across a brief review of a site depicting ships and their relative sizes in a UK magazine (Focus, 4/5). The site's pretty good with some interactivity - you can move the ships around and overlay them with each other. It's located at http://mirror.wolffelaar.nl/zardalu.sytes.net/ and contains Star Wars ships as well as those from other universes (Bablyon 5, Star Trek etc).
Avenger Recruitment Competition
08:20 - HA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
