                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for MORYA.  MVP award for STORM WARNING?  
DODGE BULLETS' proud of him after beating MAN'S HANDS and getting 33 points.  Talk 
about yer major upsets!  FATIGUE's match with BLUE MOON cost him a loss of 5 points!  
And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh well, welcome 
BAD MOON RISING.  Aren't LUNAE MILITES proud.  (Oh, my.) Is the Duelmaster really 
being a real snob to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just 
wing this stuff.  DODGE BULLETS was MORYA's most avoided team.  Is there some award 
for that?  Is there some deep dark secret why BASH BROS BODY's been avoiding DODGE 
BULLETS so much?  Or is it just that they're too scared?   
     What does a fighter fight for?  I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone 
gets killed.  Not after four more fights.  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you guys 
can do?   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I gotta leave.  MORYA is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!  
Remember you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby Tonte

energy? -- Lucky Looie

Man's Hands -- First time I saw that block an approaching storm. -- Storm Warning

Reality Stimulation -- Lots of people needing that right now. -- Myron Mei

Cow -- I wasn't really a cow-boy.  That was just an excuse. -- Dale Autrey
