                                 BOURBON and POLITICS
                                 A CONSORTIUM JOURNEY

With all the bourbon and political naming in the arenas of late, I thought this true 
life story might be pertinent and interesting. From the life and living of... The 
Consortium.

Back in 1968, my Dad, an over-the-road truck driver for Can-Tex (sewer pipe) and a 
County Commissioner (Perry County, IN), asked me to take off a election day owhile in 
college and come home and help out with the elections. Both Mom and Dad were working 
the polls and needed me to travel out into the countryside and pick up Democratic 
voters who were unable to get to the polls. (like no car, old age, poor health, well-
inebriated, etc) One must realize that Perry County was solidly Democrat, as was my 
family, with Mom, VP of County Democratic Party, and Dad, Commissioner, also being 
State Voting Representatives for Presidential Elections. My job was to pick up these 
voters, bring them to the polls to vote; take them home and give them a half-pint 
bottle of Yellowstone for their reward. I guess I picked up 20 or so voters, and then 
delivered the rest of the large box of half-pints to our basement at home.

This was my first time to vote, and in the presidential election I voted straight 
Democrat which included Hubert Humphrey for President (He lost to Nixon) and. Of 
course, my Dad (Earl W. Smith) for County Commissioner reelection. (He won)

Between the next Presidential election, I finished my Engineering Degree;began working 
as an Engineer for G.E. back in Perry County; got married; had a daughter (Jodi Ann); 
obtained an M. .A.; moved to Fayetteville, N.C to work for a Black & Decker start-up; 
and enlightenedly became a solid Conservative.

During the 1972 election, my wife's first to be able to vote, we cast our ballots 
straight Republican. (Nixon was reelected) Several days after the election, a box was 
delivered to our apartment in Fayetteville. It was addressed to six-month old Jodi, 
from my Father. Inside were many Democratic items -- blow up donkeys, pins, ribbons, 
etc -- from the campaign. There was also a simple hand-written letter:

     *Dear Jodi, *

     *I hope when you grow up, you are more intelligent than your father and your 
      mother.*

     *Love, Grandpa*

The story does not, however, end there. Fast forward fifty years or so. My father had 
passed away at 68, and my mother had just recently died at 91. My sister and I are 
hosting an auction of all the items in our parents house and the large barn. (The home 
and 20 acres of property had already been sold to a buyer waiting to take possession.) 
As we went through the many items (some quite antique; my Mom and I in my youth had 
been in every Book Club possible and owned several hundred books; Mom collected 200ish 
dolls, some from many countries of my work travels) for auction, we came to the 
clothes hamper just outside the upstairs bathroom, which held clean towels for 
bathing. After lifting out the towels on top, we surprisingly discovered 27 half-pint 
bottles of Yellowstone bourbon which must have been from the aftermath of that 1968 
election. (Since alcohol could not be auctioned and neither my sister's family nor 
mine drank, we donated them to the auctioneer. I wish, now, that I had been smarter 
and retained them for myself. They may have a great asset for use by some of my 
friends at our Face-To-Face events.)

Politics, Booze, and Duelmaster tournaments -- what a combo!

                                          -- TC, March 2, 2026 

                                 DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
                             Notes from the arena champ.

Anneli tried to look comfortable on the throne.  She tried to sit prefectly and enjoy 
her laurels.

It was not to be.

You see, the sand was getting everywhere, under her armor, inside her helm, grating in 
her gauntlets.  The sand was fouling her joints; the sand was even infiltrating her 
girdle!  It was in places that were not made for sand!  Her plate mail armor when she 
moved ground like a pepper mill, only these grains would not crack.  Deep in between 
her fingers, under her fingernails, grit between her toes, wiping the grains from here 
only to feel more there.  Sand found its way somehow, someway into the back of her 
mouth, popping and tap dancing on her aching molars.  Sand in her hair, by the gods it 
was in her hair, her forehead now 80 grit.

It felt like a night at the beach at a Sandals, only she had no date, no suitor...just 
a lonely throne, coverd in sand.

                                      SPY REPORT

Listen well, ye bloodthirsty lot. The surf crashes against the rocks beyond my prison 
cliffs, and the gulls circle overhead like they know a corpse will soon wash ashore. I 
can roam this cursed island from beach to beach, but the witch's spell holds me 
tighter than iron chains. So while I can't sail, I can watch the arena. And from my 
vantage atop the stands, I see every duel, every fall, and every fool who thinks 
themselves immortal. The turn gave us plenty of screams and steel to savor.

The sands have a new tyrant wearing the crown.  Robber seized the throne in brutal 
fashion from Anneli, claiming the champion's chair with ruthless efficiency. The 
pirate in me respects that sort of decisive mutiny. Robber now sits atop this island's 
pile of skulls and rubbish, and he will soon sail onward to the Isle of the Eye. One 
more turn, they say. Enjoy the throne while it lasts, thief.

The winds shifted among the crews this week. Obsidian Hall surged to the top of the 
standings, riding a strong run across the sands at 5-0. They fought like a disciplined 
raiding party, reminding me of a group I once encountered off the coasts of Illis. NYE 
Maulers turned a 3-2-1-1 turn into an award for Top Team on the Move. 

Every island has predators and prey. Misfit Toy Makers somehow got the distinction of 
being a predator by being the most avoided team. Like a bilge rat jumping ship, The 
Demonic Pickles fled from the Toy Makers. Seems the Pickles would rather pickle 
themselves in brine than face those Misfits. Next, we talk about the warrior who 
cannot walk ten paces without someone trying to stab them. Queen Patience drew the 
interest of many as the most challenged. The name might suggest a calm demeanor, but 
patience will surely run thin when the arena is lining up to test your steel.

No arena is complete without Death collecting his due. Adophis Jr has the most 
infamous death for the turn. He was struck down by Venomous Concubine. I might walk 
myself off a plank in embarrassment. Cruel Nights lost Jari the Gifted to Head 
Scrambler. Blood feeds the sand. It is true in every arena across the land and seas.

From my cursed arena perch, I watch you all like ships fighting in a storm. Some of 
you sail strong. Some are taking on water. And some... are already drifting toward the 
reef. Fight well next turn, warriors. While I cannot leave this island, your bones 
certainly can.
