1. A tiger who can waltz, a radioactive aardvark, and a bunch of amazing new 

   artists this month!  That's right, it's another amazing, uplifting, morally 

   wholesome iCE Pack!  Sure to get those annoying rust stains out of your 

   aging car, able to clean your fine dinnerware, and guaranteed to trim inches 

   of fat off your pendulous waist in under 15 seconds!



2. We'd like to welcome Optical Shock to ice!  You can see his handiwork in the

   pack this month.  He is fascinated by aluminum shiny things and he prefers

   to be called Nancy, unless he is dressed as Spot, in which case he prefers

   to be called Nancy.



3. We would also like to welcome Quesim this month!  Quesim is a swinging

   single artist who enjoys belly dancing and says he hates it when women think

   they know how many pennies are in the jar.



4. Next up, we have Saiyan!  Saiyan joins us from deep within the jungles of 

   Switzerland, just to the left of the famous Mayan temples of Geneva.  Saiyan

   is not a banker, and he claims that he can convert "text to speech" more 

   realistically than any software package!



5. Pedro, aka Pete Hernandez joins us as well!  Pedro doesn't train snakes, and

   his claim to fame is in using tiny little 1's and 0's from his home PC to 

   make pictures.  He also can cause an instantaneous solar eclipse when he 

   sneezes or tells people that he is made of plastic.



6. We have also gained a rare specimen of the endangered Sleeping Tiger.  

   Patricia says she is firmy rooted in fact, and claims that she is the 

   product of evolution.  She enjoys dreaming of throwing bits of cloth into

   active volcanos.

   

7. Mist also joins us, but we have no idea who he or she is.



8. Earlier this month we held the 2001 iCE Con in Virginia.  While many of the

   photos were confiscated by the police, the memories will last at least a few

   weeks.  We had about 10 iCE members show up, and we partied quite heartily

   and had a great time together.  Those who missed it were heard saying such

   woeful statements as, "Man!  I didn't know the A-Team was on tv!" and "Holy

   Circus!  We need more hostages!"



9. This month marks our 108th pack, or 9 full years of monthly packs!  Congrats

   to the over 600 members who have helped this organization release over 4,300

   pieces of art for the world to enjoy.  We have seen our amateur members turn

   into full blown Hollywood artists doing film work, work on computer games, 

   become doctors, and the large majority who have just remained great friends

   and talented artists.  We salute each and every one of you and hope everyone

   continues to find success as we begin our 10th year of packs!  Thanks again,

   everyone.  I hope in another 11 years (iCE was started in 1990) we can look

   back as the same amount of growth and success we have had in our first 11 

   years.
