                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of 
BONSUR brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  CHURCH LADIES turned their 3-2-2 turn 
into a 3rd place rank in the listings this turn.  Any better than this, and you get 
put on hit lists.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see QUEENIE win a fight 
and gain 9 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, LUAU LILA beat MARGO and MARGO lost 4 points. 
You're breakin' my heart.  And if variety is the spice of life, BONSUR may be getting 
bland, as BARILOCHE stays top dog in the city.  I'm not in a very good mood today, 
but why am I telling you this?  You want to know what's new, don't you, BONSUR?   
     My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start 
talking.' I loved that woman.  BONSUR, I am losing what little hope I had in you.  
CHURCH LADIES the most avoided team?  What insult will suffice, I cannot say.  And it 
looks like SENTINELS avoided them the most this turn.  What a pack of would be 
losers, if you ask me.  Hmph.   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  CHURCH LADIES has cause to pause today, as PAULA was 
sent to the Dark Arena, and came back--though not in the best of moods, I'll wager.  
Whoa!  I'll even buy MARY ANN a drink tonight!  Anyone who can come back from the 
Dark Arena, I want to be on hers good side!  Not that I'll be buying the drinks, but 
I'll be glad to see ETUGEN KHAN and SENTINELS at The Dripping Blade tonight 
celebrating their bloodfeud victory over REDONDO RHONDA.  Honor is like a chainmail 
shirt, it only shines through use.  Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me 
on this one.   
     I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for 
an epee.  Forgive me for writing with a dagger.  Just wait 'till next time I show up 
here, I won't be so nice!  So nyaaah!  Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide

Hey!  Where'd everyone go?!  It was just the Babes and Sentinels the last go-around.
While there is truly something special about having the Babes to yourself, it is
better at the Cabana than on the arena sands.  Come on back! -- Sentinels

Lila -- Sundance didn't want me to dance with her again this turn, so I guess you got
the ticket.  Sometimes even I win.  Hopefully you find grudges as slippery as your
teammate.  Finds grudges.  Your teammate finds the grudges slippery, not that Sarah
is slippery.  Unless she spilled some smash.  Or something.  That's enough.  Thanks
for the win. -- Etugen Khan

Rhonda -- Really?  Did you have to go and do that?  Nomad had been telling me that he
was looking forward to seeing how I came out.  I think he might even have allowed me
to fight in AD if things worked out.  9-4-16-17-9-8-21  I knew I was doomed as soon
as he said, "Ah, an Aimed Blow!" -- the ghost of Ursa Major

Sarah -- We've done that dance before.  I like it.  And I enjoy the smash after as
well.  Save another dance for me. -- Orsinius

Kona -- I was close.  That is a very "un-babe like" record you have.  I am impressed.
And in pain.  Ouch. -- Alphonso Black

Cheese louise!  Six teams listed, but only us and the Sentinels active?  How can we
have a party like that? -- the Beach Babes

Ah, Debby!  Drawing attention to the Church Ladies going 0-0-0.  It isn't like they
worked for that.  THEY got to sit on the beach and soak up the sun. -- Kona Kate,
just noticing, not complaining... exactly

Bariloche -- And so you should.  It was one of my BEST welcome-back wins. -- Kona
Kate

Etugen -- Make that two smashes.  Large ones. -- Sarah Sundance

Alphonso -- Just one of those things. -- Queenie

Our heaty congratulations to Bariloche.  Way to go!  Party at the cabana tonight,
tomorrow night, the night after that... -- the Beach Babes

We salute the tourney participants. -- Jorja and the Beach Babes

Bariloche -- If I'd realized you were poised to graduate and LEAVE us, I'd've maybe
tried harder to keep you away from the title.  We're really going to miss you. --
Queenie

Orsinius -- It was probably the overcast that gave you the edge.  I'm solar-powered.
-- Sarah Sundance

Etugen Khan -- Heck.  Probably too much pit-roasted pork last night, maybe one too
many yams... couldn't have been the smash, that's full of vitamins. -- Luau Lila

Alphonso Black -- Are you going to tell me you did NOT need an apendectomy?  Well,
now you won't EVER need one. -- Kona Kate

Ghost of Ursa Major -- I'm really sorry about that.  I pour a libation of smash to
your memory. -- Redondo Rhonda
