                             Notes from the arena champ.

     What does a dominating Duelmaster say after his twelfth (#12) Title? Well, how 
does "Ho Hum." sound? I guess I need a nap, because this is getting so downright 
b o r i n g. Boring! Four wastes, three lungers, three rippers, one aimer, and one 
striker have fallen by the wayside in battles with me for the crown. (Thank goodness 
that Vanna Wayfarer is gone, because I will not talk about HER.) Like I said:  boring.
     The real question is why am I here? Still here? I guess only The Lady knows. 
Perhaps they just don't want such a winner on The Isle? I question whether or not 
there is collusion or discrimination in my case, but The Commission only answers b& 
"not a chance". Buggers!

                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of 
AMEN-TEI brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  Later days, WAYFARERS, since 
EXCLAMATION! took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Of course, 
we're all terribly impressed to see ALBERT HALL win a fight and gain 17 points, 
terribly.  Tsk, tsk, TOMAS KATT beat NEVER and NEVER lost 7 points.  You're breakin' 
my heart.  And it's out with the old, in with the new, as FAMILY TAXI takes the Title 
and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  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, 
AMEN-TEI?   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  
AMEN-TEI, I am losing what little hope I had in you.  WAYFARERS the most avoided 
team?  What insult will suffice, I cannot say.  And who led the way in this mass act 
of cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was EXCLAMATION!.  Ha ha ha ha!  
Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, MR RIGHT HANDED was this turn's most challenged 
warrior.  Watch that ego swell, sports fans.  Now look at this.  JERK challenged down 
19 against WHY KNOT's MR RIGHT HANDED.  What a weasel!  And golly gee, JERK defeated 
MR RIGHT HANDED.  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?   
     There's got to be a better place in AMEN-TEI to get a drink than The Swinging 
Aardvark!  Any suggestions?  Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you 
have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Paste this one in your 
scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens

Correction! Someone entered Pshaw #3451 as a slasher in Terrablood. The Consortium 
Sportsman Information Services would like you all to know that is incorrect. Perhaps 
the error will be corrected by the maker? -- CSIS

Tomas, I give you credit for your stubbornness. Keep up the good work. -- Not A chance

Mr. Right Handed, you are such a favorite of mine. (wink) -- Jerk

Albert Hall, dare I say Never? Nah, I would never say never. Never in a million years. 
-- Never

Pickles And Onions, were you in the right place? Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the 
win. But, wouldn't you be better off in a condiments factory? -- Pshaw

Over the river to feed the sheep; over the river dandy. -- Loudmouth (passing out 
candy for the Exclamation 4-0)

Not a Chance -- You may be duelmaster, but the fans love ME. -- Tomas Katt

Never -- JUST what I would expect a golem to say.  I must tell you, the world is not 
so certain. -- Albert Hall

Ruthless Jaywalker?  *I* call him a speed bump. -- Family Taxi, speeding on

But Deadly -- I hope not! -- Fanny Storm

Pshaw -- May your meals be boring and flavorless. -- Pickles and Onions

Loudmouth -- Thank you.  Now if I could only get some decent replacements! -- Jorja

Family Taxi -- You're a menace on the streets.  You have no regard for safety and my 
right of free passage. -- Melrath Tarn, crosser of streets

Shhh -- You could have been more polite about that. -- Narinj of Fratsfa

Aargh -- Reign where you will, but you won't stop me crossing wherever I want. -- 
Melrath Tarn, crosser of streets
