                             Notes from the arena champ.

I don't deserve to be here. I LOST, you know? I think the DM should have been given to 
one of Assur's. After all, he loves to write DM Columns!

                                          -- Ford Grenada

P.S. Watched most of a boring Stupor Bowl last night, but was thrilled by the Dilly 
Dilly Game Of Thrones Ad Teaser. bring it on!

                                      SPY REPORT

     Much has changed in NOBLISH ISLAND since last I was here.  Never fear, Olaf 
Modeen adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters.  What's with DODGE 
CHARGER?  It actually beat SHADOWBORN's GRIM SHADOW, and walked away with 14 more 
points from the fight.  Laughs were big at C CARS while they watched DODGE CHARGER 
clobber GRIM SHADOW.  He lost 11 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the 
stands.  NOBLISH ISLAND, set your sights on VETERAN MERCENARY.  He'll be happy to 
entertain all requests after defeating FORD GRENADA.  JEEP CHEROKEE looked pretty 
Duelmasterlike as it took NOBLISH ISLAND's top spot with 27 points.  Now, what will 
FORD GRENADA do?  Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  How 
well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team!  Don't fall out of 
practive, C CARS!  Management must be dealin', as the boys at BASH BROS DRIVING ain't 
reelin'!  C CARS' mad!  What do people see in KIA SOUL?  Its 2-1-0?  C CARS ain't 
talkin', but it's got 13 points.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  How long have I been here?  I got people to see, 
places to go...   
     Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors.  Any plans here?  Are 
you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it?  Actually, I guess I'm writing it 
before you read it.  Oh, well.  Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, 
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen
