                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.  
I doubt JADE MOUNTAIN will ever be the same.  And let's see, LOTUS BLOSSOM fought OUT 
OUT and gained 17 points and contributed to SAND DANCERS' 3-2-0.  OUT OUT has lost to 
LOTUS BLOSSOM, falling 12 points, while helping make DEFROSTED a 1-1-0 turn.  
Defending hers title for another turn, THE OVEN BIRD kept JADE MOUNTAIN's warrior, 
KO-HA OAKCHOPPER, from claiming the throne.  Tell me, is nothing sacred?  I have 
heard from unimpeachable sources that The Green Axe uses trolls in their stew.  Talk 
about gristle!   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  CRITICALS has cause to stand tall, as they were JADE 
MOUNTAIN's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.  And 
guess who avoided CRITICALS stable the most?  Believe it or not, it was DEFROSTED.  
Anyone surprised?  Well, sports fans, take notice that HUNTER from SAND DANCERS was 
JADE MOUNTAIN's most challenged warrior this turn.  In a brave attempt, BOUDICCA from 
LADY WARRIORS challenged up 23 points to fight HUNTER from the SAND DANCERS stable.  
BOUDICCA perhaps got hers just desserts, seeing as she beat HUNTER and ended up with 
78 recognition points.   
     A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once.  Wise men know this to 
be true.  LADY WARRIORS has some questions to answer.  Like 'why did you kill your 
fighter, GRACE O'MALLEY, who had a record of 4-1-1?' We'd like to remind certain 
teams not to rob the graves of their enemies.  You know who you are; and it's 
considered rude.   
     Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the 
sweetest.  Well, I'm burning daylight here in JADE MOUNTAIN and I've a long road 
ahead of me.  Happy Trails.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- 
Alarond the Scribe

P.S.  And no column for me.

Out Out -- And the sooner the better. -- Black Friday

I hate bashing standbys.  They're mean. -- Lotus Blossom

Yep, she's right.  They're mean.  But they CAN be defeated. -- Ho Chang

I'm glad I'm not a standby.  They get locked into unsuited strategies. Horrible 
prospect. -- Falling Mountain
