Progress Continues on Captain's Log #38

Under the stern and utterly capricious and cruel eye of Jean Sexton, Captain's Log #38 presses steadily on towards its publication date.

Jean Sexton has stated that "the random beatings will continue until the product goes to press". So far, 100 of the 120 pages have been delivered to her, but not a single one of the has passed the proofreading test.

She further states that rumors of attempted escapes by the Steves are just that, rumors, as there are absolutely no signs that anyone or anything has tampered with the chains linking them to their computer consoles. The reported sightings of rust on some of the chains is merely blood from the recent beatings, and she regretted that these had not been cleaned up earlier.

Jean Sexton refused to give any credence to rumors that food rations had been cut . . . noting that even if they had been, there is more than enough "surplus stored bio-energy" in the Steves to carry them through to job completion.

"Hungry Steves are busy Steves," she was heard to remark.
