DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Famous archer I am, but there are a couple of reasons why William Tell is
important in the life of The Consortium.
1. One of his favorite records (LP78) as a child was The William Tell Overture
with actual cannons booming in appropriate places.
2. The Consortium's wife went to Tell City High School (The Marksmen). The city
and school were named after William Tell. (The rivalry Cannelton Bulldogs
HATED The Tell City Marksmen.)
3. The very first ring tone on The Consortium's very first cell phone was "the
cavalry charge" from the William Tell Overture.
I rest my case. No wonder I am Duelmaster.
-- William Tell DMIII
SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, LIN TIRIAN? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Now let's all watch V IS FOR VIOLINS'
heads swell from their 4-0-0 this turn. Haa ha ha ha! Big shots, big talk, big
deal. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see SHIBA TSUKUNE win a fight and
gain 15 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, TUSSLE beat TOM COLLINS and TOM COLLINS lost 3
points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, LIN TIRIAN
may be getting bland, as WILLIAM TELL stays top dog in the city. The Lost Hope Inn,
humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From
LIN TIRIAN's trash dumps?
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys. V IS
FOR VIOLINS, 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 FAMOUS ARCHERS. Ha ha ha ha!
Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, AMBUSH was this turn's most challenged warrior.
Watch that ego swell, sports fans.
Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's
see if anyone's dead or dying. We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if
the fate catches up with you sooner that later?
There's got to be a better place in LIN TIRIAN to get a drink than The Lost Hope
Inn! Any suggestions? Just wait 'till next time I show up here, I won't be so nice!
So nyaaah! Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide Clemens
