                             Notes from the arena champ.

Atlatl -- It was my pleasure to teach you so many skills.  It makes us feel more 
involved when Jorja's attention is wholly elsewhere. 

The Concubine and I are NOT compatible.  That must be why she didn't teach me much.  
Put her in an alley, my favorite place, and she'd be lost.

                                          -- The Tramp

                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, TOBIR?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, FAR TRAVELERS, since 
ANYTHING GOES took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Of course, 
we're all terribly impressed to see SNEELY win a fight and gain 17 points, terribly.  
Tsk, tsk, SNEELY beat CONLAOCH and CONLAOCH lost 6 points.  You're breakin' my heart. 
And if variety is the spice of life, TOBIR may be getting bland, as THE TRAMP 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, TOBIR?   
     Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.  
TOBIR, I am losing what little hope I had in you.  DRACO the most avoided team?  What 
insult will suffice, I cannot say.  And it looks like ANYTHING GOES avoided them the 
most this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  Hmph.  STINKY was 
challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.  Now was the DM insulted or 
feared?  Heh, heh.  And we have UPPITY in a challenge, going down 14 points for the 
fight.  Guess what?  I thought UPPITY showed great skill and promise when she 
defeated STINKY.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines 
through use.  Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.   
     There's got to be a better place in TOBIR to get a drink than The Victory 
Tavern!  Any suggestions?  Phlllt!  Just had to do that before I leave the fine city 
of TOBIR.  I feel much better now.  Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide 
Clemens

I'm sorta back. -- Jorja

P.S.  I'll keep the team full up and running, the occasional personal, if you want 
more you'll have to speak up and tell me so.

These are, of course, late.  Think of their presence as a sign of a definite effort 
and intention to catch up. -- Jorja
