After spending much of the weekend looking over the applications for the
position of assistant fearless leader, I have reached a decision.

It was not easy, as there were three people who in the end were nearly
equally qualified, but I believe I have selected a person that will not
only be able to handle the administrative duties, but has demonstrated
his ability to be a guiding force for discussion on both ShadowTK and
RN, and also on NERPS.

Doctor Doom <JCH8169@*****.TAMU.EDU> will be my assistant.

It may be about a week before he gets added to the headers as I want to
tutor him on some administrative stuff, but he is now another person you
can address your problems and gripes to.

Thanks to the nine people that applied.

OH NO! Now we have not one but two dictat...er leaders.

Doctor Doom, I have been having this problem with my roundhouse kick. I
can't quite get it high enough without getting a cramp in my hip. Can
you help?

I must say, although unexpected, the Doktor is certainly a good choice.
I am pleased that he got the position.

The scene: A large room shrouded in darkness, only partially illuminated
by a oblong hexagonal viewport. Within one may see a lone planet (account)
against the black backdrop of space (the internet). Standing before the
viewport is a tall, grim figure clothed in a field gray Prussian uniform.

Behind him, being restrained by guards, is the user Doc X, whose home
planet is presently under the glare of this dark persona. With a gesture
of dismissal, the dreaded executor gives the command,

"You may fire when ready."

Outside, above the battlestation's main armament, verdant shafts of light
converge upon a single point and, in unifying, streak across the remaining
distance to rain electric death upon the unsuspecting planet. A million
voices cry out in terror and are suddenly silenced.

An evil smile passes over the grim visage.

My hypothesis would be that the particular vicissitude encountered is due
to either 1) faulty technique or 2) flexibility.

If the latter alternative proves valid, I would highly recommend the use of
the Craftmatic Tendon-Puller (tm) -- 'Tis amazing the scope of movement
possible once one's tendons have been ripped from their moorings.
