1. We'd like to welcome two new ansi guys to iCE!  Enzo, a Brazilian law

student, and The Creep Fever, a road construction worker who does art as a

hobby.  Enzo really rocks, and he's a good sport.  He didn't mind it at

all when we stripped him naked and repeatedly beat him with reeds.  The

Creep Fever was excused from the beating, because he was willing to eat the

warm jello from "The Dirty Bowl".  Both got a full round of applause after

they got back from the medical folks.  Thanks to Trip for using the paddles

to bring the Ansi division back.

2. Slothy was out in California this month for E3, seeing the many games on

display, hanging with Dave Perry (from Shiny) at The Comedy Store, and

generally having a good time in LA.  Slothy's game, Savage, was a big

success at E3.  Rogue Leader is one of the artists working on the game, and

the sound effects for the E3 trailer were done by Basehead.  Go Savage!

3. Mongi left for Thailand this week, then Hong Kong.  Since he'll be gone for

the month and he was kind enough to finish up a pic for this pack, we'll go

ahead and wish him a safe trip.  Have fun, Patrick!  Don't pick up too many

of those Thailand boys!

4. Be sure to check out our interview with DJ Monkeyboy this month.  We dive

into the many aspects of his life, from his art to his DJ'ing and even his

clothing design.

5. We also have another fantastic tutorial from Leonardo about how to draw a

happy little tree.  Go look, it's enlightening.

6. Finally, as usual, we have a couple of quilts from tiles.ice.org.  First up

is the Bizarro quilt, which turned out quite interestingly.  Next we have

the Grayscale quilt, where no colors were allowed.  Go check them out and

then go grab a tile at tiles.ice.org :)

Forever yours,

Slothy and Root88
