                                 DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
                             Notes from the arena champ.

     What can I say, the Venomous Concubine intimidates me.  I never did care for men
with false eyelashes.  But at least he isn't the duelmaster.

                                    Deemer Eppt

                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  MIDDLE WAY 16 had cause to celebrate, after 
BARTON DAWES got 22 points by beating BOOTSY COLLINS.  Win some, lose some.  Speaking 
of which, GEORGE CLINTON was winsome, after beating FORBERT GRELL and seeing him lose 
9 points.  Out with the old, in with the new.  Enter KUNG-FU MASTER, handily 
defeating DEEMER EPPT.  With 60 points, ARKAN BARNES of MIDDLE WAY 16 takes the 
position of JURINE's Duelmaster.  So who's the team that's been walking into taverns 
last week and ordering milk?  Sounds like a PR stunt to me.   
     A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn?  And do not the 
little birds cry out?'  Any ideas?   
     Is there life after death?  Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after 
life!  Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have 
fallen into an unconscious stupor.   
     Do not think spyreporting in JURINE is the highlight of my life.  As the seasons 
change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave 
this place.  Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid JURINE 
farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
