Captain’s Log: “Intergalactic Spring Love :)”
Stardate 220508 (A.S.)*

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

We continue steady in the deep galaxy of our mission. The new territory remains friendly and supportive. Workload has intensified on all fronts but the spring star season brings a boost of energy that should give us the final thrust to go through the summer star season strong and productive. We shall then hopefully burn through a Hellenic island star until our next mission. The report writing has been slow and difficult. It has been a long time since serious report writing has taken place. Minor interferences have caused minor irritations but previous battles have made us strong enough to shun the new difficulties with nodding smiles ;) . We feel grateful to our past adversaries. May they live well and prosper. Our little vessel is still landed and the mission continues on the ground (and underground) intergalactic realms. The underground resistance alliance is growing. The new mission has brought us closer to the personal histories of some of our crew members. We are getting to know our crew in ways never before imagined. They haven’t just been diligent soldiers, they have also been remarkable human beings who have endured a lot of pain and abuse in their lives. I have been feeling even more honored and privileged to have travelled with them. A few remain lost, my thoughts are with them. New technologies have been helping our ground mission. A magical communicator, Starberry 8310 and StarMac, have been acquired and they have been just brilliant in all ways. The starberry is the true communicator device with amazing Lunar GPS functions that assist ground exploration in strange and dangerous territories like LeoLand in Megacity Brixton. Work and communication with friends and colleagues has become a true 24 hour mobile joy. We are always on! The StarMac has given a new meaning to report writing. Simultaneous writing and reading of important published works on a single star-like display is now possible. Darth Jobs has done his evil miracle again! It may have taken 3 starMacs to get a pixel perfect StarMac, but the minions of Darth Jobs were kind and always delivered. Our loyalty to Lord Darth Jobs and his sinful empire remains strong as ever. Master we kneel before you! The stars have brought unexpected visitors from our past. An encounter from a chilhdood love has revitalised our spirits. They call it Spring Love, Intergalactic spring Love…We are flying all night…May the force be with you…Captain out. OVER.
