                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of 
JURINE brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  Of course, we're all terribly 
impressed to see BLAZING SNEEZER win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, 
MAJOR FLAVOR beat CANDICE and CANDICE lost 9 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  And 
if variety is the spice of life, JURINE may be getting bland, as GANGSTA 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, JURINE?   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  HOWLIN 
3-D, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team.  Care 
to know who is the most afraid of you?  And who led the way in this mass act of 
cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was CLAN GHOST BEARS.  Ha ha ha ha!  
OUTTA BOUNDS was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.  Now was the DM 
insulted or feared?  Heh, heh.  I notice RAZORBACK challenging down 16 points to 
fight OUTTA BOUNDS, COLLEGE MASCOTS doubtless has some rotten excuse for such an 
insult to honor.  And golly gee, RAZORBACK won victory over OUTTA BOUNDS.  Aren't we 
all surprised and impressed?   
     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 JURINE 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 JURINE.  I feel much better now.  I see the crowds 
are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens
