"Commander's Log: SmallDate:1/11/00:9.59. Oh mighty Isis, protect us now. They have arrived. Someone in Planning forgot to mention that we would need to land 8 ships on the roof, so parking is a drag. The Dignitaries from the Small Council have come here to be wowed by their spending, and I intend to present them with a solid impression of efficiency and fortitude. Which means I have instructed my Crew to keep silent and not touch anything without direct orders. I can't tell you if the Orange Drive works, and I don't really care. All I know is that every toy I have ever looked up to is here, and I'm in charge. Please, put me back in my original box, now..."

*"If you would all please step this way... mind the hull gaps now... that's it..."* *"Would you kindly get an attendant for Sub-Commander Hogg? His legs have not taken to space travel and I'm sorry to say we will need a replacement suit for him..."* *"We'll get him inside and treat him real nice, just please everyone, move this direction very carefully and we'll get everyone comfortable inside, OK? Good... real nice..."*
