1.  One more month and the scene just keeps getting wierder.  While us iCE

students were busy not doing homework and answering calls from the

ACiD Staff, the older guys were busy going bankrupt, curing people of

dangerous diseases, helping grey-haired wirey women across crowded city-

streets, and perfecting their shadow puppets.  Oh, they also were answering

calls from the ACiD Staff, although not as much since the operation.  I'd

not lie if I said we managed to pick up alot of new blood this month, but I

did cut down the cherry tree.   Sadly we had to get rid of alot of inactive

guys, though.  Please see #5 below for less.  It was alot like the scene in

Goodfellas, except we were driving a Volkswagon Bus and had the bodies in

the back.  And instead of a knife we used a vending machine.  You should

have been there... it was really neat to watch.  We found that after we

emptied all the fluids from the bag, we could use them to make the truck

into a hot tub.  So we made it on the bevel...

2.  iCE VGA Welcomes a whole slew of new artists.  First off, as you have

probably heard, the famous duo of Catbones and Sprite have joined the

ranks from ACiD. The second artist without a handle has joined iCE; Tom

Crofton is our resident landscape expert. Other illustrious artists to

grace us with their presence are Supreme, Salmon, and finally Digital

Interface.  We have also been joined by a non-illustrious guy by the

name of Mass Delusion.  He joins as a Web Coordinator.  Welcome, mice

and men!

2½. This pack was brought to you by the letter F.

3.  A couple folks left iCE for other lands this month. A fond farewell to

Maestro, who is taking a vacation from big groups, taxes, and

existentialism; White Knight, who needs the time to devote to his collection

of plaid parachutes; and Unsane, who has gone to Saga to be an aardvark.

4.  Future Assassin demanded a greet or he would kick Friar's tail. Friar

hereby screams "YO! FASSYSASSIN! GREET THIS! <gesture>" =)

5.  Several artists have been removed from the list for lack of a pulse. They

are Rainmaker, Animal, Biscuit, Cooly, Incubus, Highness, Isosceles,

Pnakotic, Death Adder, Anarchy, ImageX, Frog, Airborn, Soul Rebel and

Sorcerer's Son. As always, these people are inactive and are off the

active memberlist; they haven't been booted for genetic defects or

because of the fact that they indulge in wearing women's undergarments

and/or defocation on Friar's doorstep.  In fact, they're not even out

of the group.  It's just this wierd thing about iCE that once someone

is Inactive we take them off the Active Memberlist.  <Shrug>...

5½. If you hear this whisper, you are dying.

6.  Basehead has released a musicdisk. One of the reputed masters of the

scene, his cutting-edge music can be found on ftp.cdrom.com in the

directory /demos/incoming/music/disks/fm-lotus.zip. Check it out!

7.  Crusader is a new game from Origin. It's CD-Rom based and features

music from Necros and Basehead. It's great to see scene music getting

the recognition it deserves.  Go out and buy it, but like they're not

getting any royalties, so just ummm... borrow it from a friend.

8.  The Freedom CD has been released. For $12, you can get an audio

CD featuring songs by Necros, Nemesis, Future Assassin, as well as a

second data CD full of famous demoscene productions.  The handsome 2-CD

case includes eye-candy by Tonedef and Xten, which are not to be missed.

This is an amazing deal folks.  How much would you pay for all this?

$10,000?  $500?  $50?  Well, we've dropped it to the low-low price of JUST

$12 dollars.  That comes down to $6 a CD, and we'll even throw in the

pretty CD Artwork and Case as an added bonus gift for buying it before

the second coming of Christ.  That's right, all you have to do is email

dmw@gate.net before they sell out.

9.  Syntax has been returned to Senior Staff. The Advisor position has been

removed; Tempus Thales and Shaggy have been removed for inactivity.

Gratz to Paul; Ben and J'onn, hope to hear from you soon.  Don't forget

to send us those videotapes of the Care Bears...

10. iCE promotes tooth decay, film at 11.
