                             Notes from the arena champ.

The Chardinee tried to keep me down, but it didn't work.  Even Jorja's surprised that 
I reached this point with a winning record.  I'm PS, 11-14-11-13-15-9-11 GS low/low  
Born to scum, you see, but I tend not to fight that way.  It was probably this turn's 
expert in parry that tipped me over the edge.

                                          -- Don Lo, headed for retirement

                                      SPY REPORT

     So why do I have this bag over my head?  Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and 
I'm going to give you a spy report!.  It looks like the guys(?) at PAPER TIGERS S19.1 
had a good week as they went 4-1-0 to put them in 2nd place.  I guess steroids help!  
Hey everybody, watch out for JANIS JOPLIN, who flew up 29 points in the rankings 
after mashing ANDORIAN YUPPIE like a melon.  Keep your eye on this gal.  Ya know, 
some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  MIGHTY MITE was beat by SLY and 
drops 7 points.  What does the Duelmaster and Piltdown Man have in common?  They are 
both the most challenged apes in human history!  Heyheyhey!  Well, everybody's pal 
DON LO moved his record to 28-18-0 by defeating HARRISON FORD in the Duelmaster's 
Title Bout and gaining 8 recognition points.  Advice to bashers--never force 
anything, just get a bigger halberd!   
     But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!  
Here's a song for you:  Who's afraid of the big, bad THAT SMELL?  Big bad THAT SMELL. 
Big bad THAT SMELL.  DAL SHANG's afraid of the big bad THAT SMELL.  Tra la la la la!  
And you guys like to boo me?  Well, unsling your rasberries, cause CAR STARS beats 
feet every time THAT SMELL smiles at them.  Try farming, eh?   
     Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the 
most interesting, though!  Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time 
is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in DAL SHANG have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  Okay, so I may not be the 
world's best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors.  Its been 
fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos).  Now that I've got you worked up for Snide 
Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster
