What's this all about then? I think it's best to define N*E*R*D by what we're not. First and foremost, no ranks in this squad. Everyone's input is as much valued as anyone's. Second of all, we don't practise, nor do we meet up at least once a week or something along those lines. We know our responsibilities, and we know our goal and we act accordingly.

Although Monster Island is a real place, the proprietors do not want the location to become too well known, fearing that twould then be overrun by the greatest monster of all: man. So my trip there was planned in secret and I had to remain blindfolded during my flight. But it was all worth it, Monster Island was the best vacation I've ever had. Being able to walk up to a 20 foot high bug was just about the coolest thing in the world. I thought the giant ape and other "Monsters" on the island would be in cages, or inaccessible, but tare quite friendly and accessible.
