=/\==/\= Starfleet Academy Briefing for September 6, 2005=/\==/\=

In the name of education, the faculty of Starfleet Academy has subjected the crew of USS Goldstein (refit Galaxy Class) to an "emergency" landing on a small barely-habitable planet.

After investigating a distress signal, the AT finds itself pinned down in a cave, under fire from what appear to be smugglers.

Furthermore, our food and medical supplies have disappeared from the base camp.

Wasn't this planet supposed to be uninhabited?

Meanwhile, back at Starfleet Headquarters on Earth, Admiral Duturetire finds his afternoon nap interrupted by a sharp rap on the casing of his open office door. "Huh? Wha...?" he blurts out while jerking awake. He takes a moment to rub sleep from his eyes and don his spectacles so he can check the chrono on the opposite wall. 1400. Three hours to go before happy hour at the club. Darn.

 

After several minutes lost in contemplation of the evening's pursuits, the admiral finally notices a young ensign standing in the doorway, awaiting permission to enter. "Yes, yes. Come in, come in." He waves an impatient hand at the ensign while rubbing the other hand over his thinning hair and down the back of his neck.

 

"Dispatch from Charlie, sir," said the ensign. "They've found the smugglers crashed on an uninhabited planet in the . . . ." He never got to finish. Duturetire held up his hand, took the padd , and after slipping it onto a teetering pile marked "IN" dismissed the ensign with a nod.

 

"Sheesh," he muttered when the doorway cleared. "Smugglers. Think I'll finish my nap first."

I already reserved the computer, bought some pepsi and chips and arranged for my parents to be out for dinner. ::sitting at the computer staring at the clock hoping it will show 9pm soon::

Well now it looks like I won't be able to make it. We had somewhat of a crisis and well...I'll be stuck with my parents doing family stuff. Real life's more important than simming after all.
