                             Notes from the arena champ.

     So, Up-Chucky, when I hold my hand over your mouth, you can't do your disgusting
little trick, eh?  Good.  Because if you upped your chuck, why, I'd just have to feed
you more until you kept some of it down.  Can't have you starving on your feet or
anything.

                                        Pike

                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, CALEAM?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed 
to see SHORT ORDER JOE win a fight and gain 16 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, SHORT 
ORDER JOE beat CALONYMUS and CALONYMUS lost 15 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  
And if variety is the spice of life, CALEAM may be getting bland, as PIKE 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, CALEAM?   
     My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start 
talking.' I loved that woman.  Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, MOLDRAUN was this 
turn's most challenged warrior.  Watch that ego swell, sports fans.   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave 
team is developing these kinds of weapons?   
     What does the CALEAM arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as 
comfortable to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Phlllt!  Just had to do that 
before I leave the fine city of CALEAM.  I feel much better now.  Paste this one in 
your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens

Cayon McCann -- You think the celadon wallpaper with the ivory satin stripe?  I
wasn't sure about it; mightn't it be a little too subtle for the crowd we get at the
Golden Canyon Saloon?  After all, there is also the peacock blue wallpaper with the
white and pink cabbage roses and the true-lovers'-knots in gold.  I'll admit that *I*
don't care for the roses wallpaper much, but some people seem to think it might be
(gag) just the thing. -- Moldraun

Caloymus -- Sorry, no, really sorry and no fooling, but I just don't DO candied
ginger root.  Where would I put it on my grill, after all?  What skillet should I
use?  No, I'm a plain greasy cook, and the fancy stuff will just have to be handled
by my teammates. -- Short Order Joe

Trustworthy Scribe...is that one of the blended teas?  Hmm, gray and rather murky,
not particularly appealing....  No, I'll pass on that.  Especially if you aren't
going to tell me what the tea is blended WITH. -- Corot Toro

Cnut Cnuklz -- Well, of course!  Pancakes often have chopped nuts in them.  Although
I don't think cinnamon glazed pecans are the exact nuts I want.  The sugar would
throw off the rest of the recipe, you see.  Plain pecans, some chopped for texture
and the rest ground to coarse meal so they enhance the flavor. -- Suzette Creppay
P.S.  Maple syrup, perhaps?

Calonymus -- (astonished look, nay, totally stunned look)  Suzette?  You actually
want to get to know her?  But...she's my cousin!  I remember her as a brat with
crooked teeth.  How could you want to get to know Suzette? -- Corot Toro

Caylon -- I think the Doc's Lab blew up.  It's completely gone. -- Moldraun

Calonymus -- My aunt has a tureen shaped like a duck.  She puts sauces in it.  My
favorite is the orange sauce she makes, kind of goes with the duck, you know?  Not to
mention how good it is on pancakes.  Come over first thing in the morning and I'll
show you. -- Suzette
