One of the more pleasant types of announcements I make here...

What with the events of the last few weeks, certain small niceties have dropped by the wayside. Understandable, but a shame, and I may be heading out of town shortly, but I wanted to rectify the lapse before I did.

We have a number of new trainees to welcome aboard. Marius, Jennie, Kyle, Janet, and Forge will be working with us. I'm sure you'll all make yourselves available to answer any questions they may have, and as training partners when I do get a new rotation drawn up.

For our new trainees - you now have full access to the database, including all of the training material and past missions. I'd suggest reading everything you can get your hands on, for a better understanding of what we do around here. One note, though - it's not kind to mock the follies of your elders. Some of us have heard all too many jokes about quicksand and coatracks and the like.

And on that note... trainee names, anyone?

That's it! Chupathingy! That's him.

Ha! I say we actually make it "Chupathingy."

I vote for Chupathingy.

Wow. I think I win. Jackpot is way better than Beast Boy. Or Goat-sucker.

Well, let us consider. I am not particularly put off. After all, as (in this case inapplicable) ethnic codenames go, it does rate above "Boomerang" or "Didgeridoo".

Well, Didgeridoo would certainly give villians, um, pause.

Plus, I think your power relates more to sucking than blowing.

I shall defer to the expert.

Only in your dreams, kangaroo boy.

I'm definitely making no comment about Didgeridoos and your rather remarkable ability to go on and on and on in an audible vein.

It is a Talent. In fact, were I ever paired with Terry that is a skill that could be used to great tactical advantage . . .

It is definitely a Talent, and one we shall have to think about how to best utilize.
