Running a Slack Ship

I'm on vacation this week, which means I get to write to you from home, wearing robe and slippers in front of my cute blue iMac, instead of wearing my usual metalflake silver jumpsuit and virtual reality goggles in the NCPR New Media Studio--which resembles the bridge of the Starship Enterprise, except with more gadgets. The coffee's better at home, and you can't beat the company, but I miss firing off the photon torpedoes.
