                             Notes from the arena champ.

      How strange.  A war flail?  Have I always carried this?  But it does appear to
be working, so perhaps I shouldn't question things.
      Yours was a valiant effort, Lady Dorothy, but, let's face it, I'm great.

                                      Chichi-Hooey

P.S.  By the way, congratulations on your ascension to agelessness.  People tell me
agelessness is good; myself, I question this.  To age more slowly, yes, I could see
it, but... not if all one does with the extended span is practice for and engage in
gladiatorial duels.  That strikes me as likely to become really tedious, because it
already is really tedious here.  Still, to each his or her own.  (But not its own,
golems don't have owns.)

                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of 
TOBIR brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  Later days, OLYMPIANS, since THE 
DOGHOUSE took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Of course, we're 
all terribly impressed to see LOVELIFE win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly.  
Tsk, tsk, APOLLO'S APPRENTICE beat ECHANOSARAH and ECHANOSARAH lost 7 points.  You're 
breakin' my heart.  And if variety is the spice of life, TOBIR may be getting bland, 
as CHICHI-HOOEY stays top dog in the city.  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.   
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  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 TOBIR to get a drink than The Deeproot Inn!  
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

Civilized Criminal?  Dog my cats, he's a menace!  He's insidious, and a lot too
smart.  He's probably a danger to civilization as we know it.  He should be strung up
by his toes and tickled relentlessly by the sober and scientific monks of Mount
Grozel and the residue fed to the invincibly stupid and slothful mollusks who dwell
in the depths of the lake at Riztab.  Just for starters. -- Gerbent

A Cheerful Fan is, I don't know, a contradiction?  An offense?  The whole idea just
seems wrong, somehow.  What does he have to be cheerful about?  Why isn't he sharing
it?  Good things should be shared, or at least the pleasure should.  Why isn't he
jumping up and down and wagging his tail?  (sigh)  It's all some kind of pose, isn't
it?  He isn't really cheerful, and he probably isn't really a fan.  Such duplicity!
I don't know if I can stand it. -- Scruff

The Delarquan Sailor just wants to go home, and I think he should. -- Tipar Kuroo
P.S.  By land.  The Beach Rescue Squad is tired of pulling him out of the water.  If
he can't swim and is afraid of boats, why doesn't he just go by land?

I think it's just WRONG that the Fratsfan Noble isn't Fratsfan.  Of course, he's too
SHORT to be a true Fratsfan, and much too dark, but still, it's just WRONG.  Maybe he
could be some other standby, and we could get a REAL Fratsfan in here.  I'd like to
chop up a real Fratsfan.  They're so conceited!  I'd ENJOY it. -- Echanosarah

Protoplasmic -- Stop that!  Do you think Polite Beggars grow on TREES? -- Arenamaster
