He wasn't standing at the end of the fight. Besides, I prefer to think of Noble Assassin the fine (and strong) brandy. Just the thing for fruitcake. Not that I like fruitcake all that much, but other people do, and I try to accomodate them from time to time. Pascella SPY REPORT Greetings, Warriors of CALEAM. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. GOLDEN CANYON had cause to celebrate, after OVAELLA JUNE got 6 points by beating JACKIE O. Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by GAMBIT, of ZOMBIE SQUAD, who despite a 7-1-0 couldn't overcome CALEAM's Number 1. So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem... A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the little birds cry out?' Any ideas? The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee. All good things must come to an end. More important duties call me. Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid CALEAM farewell-- Novgorodny Vir DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME PASCELLA 4800 31 4 1 101 GOLDEN CANYON (290) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ALFREDA CREME 4827 13 3 3 95 GOLDEN CANYON (290) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GAMBIT 4826 7 1 0 88 ZOMBIE SQUAD (384) OVAELLA JUNE 4823 14 3 0 70 GOLDEN CANYON (290) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CONDI RICE 4808 13 16 2 57 FIRST LADIES (482) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JACKIE O 4807 9 20 0 47 FIRST LADIES (482) JELLIA BOONE 4840 7 0 0 46 GOLDEN CANYON (290) ELENORE ROOSEVELT 4804 6 23 0 41 FIRST LADIES (482) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SPUD LOOMIS 4839 3 4 0 30 GOLDEN CANYON (290) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn. THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN Revenge? PERSONAL ADS Gambit -- Ah, one of those brainy types? Odd, in a zombie, or maybe not so odd, since I am given to understand that zombies like to eat brains. I prefer eggs, myself. Brains are too greasy. -- Ovaella June M. Risoco Chardinee -- I am, perhaps, moved to make... cheesecake. Either that, or lasagna. Odd, but there it is. -- Alfreda Creme Jackie O -- You inspire me to create a bundt cake with a strong vein of preserves-- raspberry, probably--in it. But do I want a lemon sauce, or a chocolate one to top it off? -- Jellia Boone Condi Rice -- Bah. Foreign. -- Spud Loomis LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS PASCELLA bested GAMBIT in a crowd pleasing 3 minute Title fight. ALFREDA CREME vanquished KUNG-FU MASTER in a 1 minute uneven battle. OVAELLA JUNE demolished JACKIE O in a 1 minute uneven fight. JELLIA BOONE unbelievably bested ELENORE ROOSEVELT in a 5 minute one-sided contest. CONDI RICE luckily beat SPUD LOOMIS in a crowd pleasing 1 minute mismatched match.

Room rates are $129.00 per night, 1-2 occupancy, which includes full cooked breakfast, complimentary manager's reception (yes, really!), free airport shuttle, free parking and free high speed internet. There's a fitness center, jacuzzi, and pool. The rooms are blocked--please make your reservation by December 22 before the block is released!
