1.  And  on rumor of  another alien  craft landing, secret  agents Count  Zero,
Egghead, and Jae were sent in to investigate...

2.  Much like  the stock market, iCE  has been  slowly growing  in value as  we
add  incredible artists  each month.  Unlike the stock  market (and much to the
joy of the  senior staff), we don't deal with those pithy crashes where we lose
half of our holdings.  Added  this month to the creative collective is DaVinci,
full of  detailed high resolution screen  taffy.  This month  also saw the talk
down  of  Digital  Interface   from  an  eerie  trip  of  ACiD,  welcome  boys.

3.  One, two, five!  Three, sir!

4.  iCE T-Shirts, first  mentioned about 4 years ago, finally made their way to
the  shelves  of corporate  America (right down  the  street  from our  HQ,  of
course)!  These new  shirts are  currently only available  in white and feature
the crazy sketches of Vesalius - world-renowned for tastelessness and obsession
with  poop.  If _that_  doesn't make you  want one,  what  would?   Point  your
favorite web browser in the general direction of http://www.ice.org/~massd/tees
Rumor  has it,  according to  some, that  t-shirts  come with free  iCE ansi!??

5.  Three!

6.  On the  heels of a proud  lineage of amazing  artists,  Darkmage this month
secures  his place in  artistic history  with an Artist of the Month(tm) award!
We  don't really  need to explain  why, just look  at his work  and you'll see.

7.  iCE would  like to celebrate a bit  and note the fact  that we  confidently
beat  ACiD in our previous Blender Kombat match.  Turning in a  544k ansimation
proved to  be too much for the  judges to ignore.  Kudos to  ACiD, who provided
great  competition and  turned out great work.  Next  target in the crosshairs,
Dark Team #1,  and after that,  any rabid bunnies  that might be lurking about.

8.  We would like to  state, once and for  the record, that  we did not, at any
time,  ever,  in any way,  have sexual or  improper relations  with that  girl,
Monica Lewinsky.  Now, what our keyboard did is a totally different story, that
thing has a mind of its own!  We just like to watch.

9.  As always, you  too can  join the  ranks of iCE!  If  you're feeling peppy,
have  a unique, burning  sensation on your backside, and a penchant for monitor
radiation - you  might be right for iCE!  Feel free to  contact us for whatever
reason at icestaff@ice.org.

10. Secret agents  Count Zero, Egghead, and Jae  all returned safely,  save the
unique,  burning sensation and  radiation tans they  acquired.  Mmmm.. note  to
self, check if they want to join iCE.
