                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for DAL SHANG.  THAT SMELL like really fought 
hard to move up to 2nd from 5th.  Way to go!  MVP award for WEEZER?  SAND DANCERS' 
proud of him after beating DAZZLE and getting 18 points.  Talk about yer major 
upsets!  DAZZLE's match with WEEZER cost it a loss of 6 points!  Don't you think the 
Duelmaster is being unfair?  I think POPCORN should let KAPPA VELORUM be Duelmaster 
for a while, without fighting about it.  Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob 
to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All DAL SHANG ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to 
hear from you?  Write!  (Or have someone write for you.)  
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits.  Remember 
you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby Tonte
