Dark Greetings Galerians!

Wow. It's been quite awhile since my last report as your ever-lovin' RM. Does that mean that Mali doesn't love you? Absolutely not. He was just waiting for the accursed holidays to come to a complete and utter end. And now they have, at least for a time. Please recline, make yourself comfortable and enjoy this succulent edition of Galeres activity from the past week or so (covering January 7 through January 12), painstakingly outlined below. I'm even going to throw in some stuff dealing with the rest of the items that happened since my last report. Read it and weep, ladies.

Now then, a bit of older info, dating back to the arse-end of December (the 18th, I believe). Information is good, so sit there like good little cabbages and let it flow over you. Soak it up, if you will. It could be worse. I could be sending out a report that said "nothing happened for the past month, deal with it." I'm proud of what Galeres does, and you all should be too. Yes, even you, Gavin. I've got my eye on you, miscreant. /me prays :P

A few things in closing. First of all, I included our dearly departed Karel Bruth`Kothae in this report and its distribution. His achievements both in this timeframe and earlier are truly nothing to scoff at, nor is his impeccable timing for deciding to leave JUST when I learned how to type/spell his family name without cutting and pasting.

I, for one, am overjoyed to bid the winter holidays adieu. For those of you that enjoy them, and had nice ones, kudos and congrats. Me, I'll do my best to keep abstaining from the cheer that goes along with them. It's just my way. I'm too old to change, so there you have it.

A special congrats goes out to our own Zandro Savric (CC) Erinos for nabbing an ICTE second place finish this past week after some frenzied and quality gaming. w00t!

My heartfelt thanks to Quaestor Selene for helping us by starting and updating this. Isn't she a kind and benevolent Clan Envoy? I most certainly think so. Plus she's my boss two times over. Not that I'm kissing up. I only do that on days that end in the letter "y". And since today is only Fridae, no arse-kissing will occur in this report.

Welcome to the new folks, keep up the good work and remember to steer clear of land mines. DJM Mejas Doto has been on the prowl, setting many new ones to trip up unsuspecting Dark Jedi. He's also been stepping up e-mail communication for the entire Clan, so to that I say, "Well done, thanks and please don't prevent the rest of us from talking on #arcona." Yes, I'm still subtle and, more importantly, rather easy on the eyes. Well, that's what Sashar and CC told me. Maybe there really is no accounting for taste. Whatever.

Be careful out there.
