                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, LYRATILAN?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  And it's out with the old, in with the 
new, as ALAN JACKSON takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. 
Heh, heh.  Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of 
these guys win their fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  What's 
the big D?  WORKING GIRLS was the most avoided team?  Bunch of lily livered... 
grumble... mumble... curse...  And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice?  
Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was GONE COUNTRY.  Ha ha ha ha!  Ooh, I'm 
frightfully impressed, ALAN JACKSON was this turn's most challenged warrior.  Watch 
that ego swell, sports fans.  I guess I can give a little credit to GEORGE STRAIT of 
GONE COUNTRY for challenging up by 18 to PAUL STOCK.  GEORGE STRAIT won to get 87 
points of recognition.   
     Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals.  I volunteer for LYRATILAN's 
morgue.  More variety.  We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if the fate 
catches up with you sooner that later?   
     There's got to be a better place in LYRATILAN to get a drink than The Piper's 
Rest!  Any suggestions?  Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you have 
too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Glad to see the back of this place-- 
Snide Clemens
