two new entries and four updates.
Steve Cole
worked on Captain's Log #53, blogs, art for the Gorn Master Starship Book, Shapeways, and other
projects. Steve steadily improved, including the longest dog walk in
years on Sunday and twice that far on Tuesday as he graduated from physical therapy with flying colors. Steve got top marks from his
surgeon on his six-week checkup and has lost 70 pounds since last
July.
Steven Petrick worked on Star Fleet Battles updates, quality control
assembly and shipping, the Tholian Master Starship Book, and the Gorn Master Starship Book.
Leanna kept
orders and accounting up to date.
Mike kept orders going out and rebuilt the
inventory.
Simone did website updates and some
graphics. Simone will be leaving soon to take care of her first baby
(due in September) and we hired Samantha Todd as her replacement.
Simone is using her last days to train Samantha (a graphic design
student at the local university).
Wolf guarded the office, chasing away a
Yehuecauhceratops. Most of the week, he stayed home with Jean to take care of her.
Jean worked on updating the text catalog and product update list and managed the blog feed. She came down with a cold and decided to stay at home so as not to set back Steve Cole's recovery. From home she managed our page on Facebook (which is up to 4,080 friends), managed our Twitter feed (285 followers),
commanded the Rangers, dealt with the continuing spam assault on the
BBS, took care of customers,
and did some marketing.
