However, there is not much to report... Our title fight was a random match. GATEWAY (82-15631) (60-52-1,279) of ATTACK OF THE CLONES fought HE HATE ME (18-7820) (110-66-2,224) of WASTELAND. GATEWAY devastated HE HATE ME in an action packed 1 minute mismatched Title fight. Hmm. The announcer called it mismatched... I might have called it so, in the other direction. I would really have expected the lovely He Hate Me to win that fight. I lost a ittle money on that one. Have you ever wondered how your fellow gladiators stack up, when they're not out on the sands? I mean, is your best lunger a social success? Does your TP know how to dress? Is your parry-ripper really an intellectual? Well, I've been asking around and making notes, and here's what I've come up with: PERSONAL QUALITY WARRIOR TEAM NAME COOLNESS REDDI WHIP KILLING ME SOFTER FASHION SENSE MEN WORKING JUST BECAUSE LOVE LIFE RUGEN THE JELLYFISH HANNAH'S PALS DANCING RED FUSION IT'S NEW! EDUCATION LITTLEST TYRANT THE NEPHEW COMELINESS HE HATE ME WASTELAND SAVOIR FAIRE ??RADAR?? DYSLEXICS UNTIE! DISPOSITION TALLAHASSEE TINA BEACH BABES REDDI WHIP (97-1636) (74-31-9,210) of KILLING ME SOFTER fought ALOHA ALICE (7-4867) (35-66-0,170) of BEACH BABES. REDDI WHIP devastated ALOHA ALICE in an exciting 1 minute brutal one-sided fight. Now, it is worth noting here that Aloha Alice is the ONLY Beach Babe who is in a class with another person (she shares the Grand Challenger Adepts with Men Working). The other Beach Babes are the ONLY warriors in the Grand Adepts, Grand Challenger Initiates, and Grand Initiates. Which is why they'll be fighting stand-ins for a while, unless we get some new blood in the arena. SUPER BUM (82-18411) (116-51-2,200) of FLAT BROKE fought MEN WORKING (38-4189) (47- 167-1,165) of JUST BECAUSE. SUPER BUM bested MEN WORKING in a 2 minute bout. Yup. But Men Working looked awfully sharp the whole time in his Island-cut suit of russet wool, accessorized with a blunt instrument (he is our top Basher). RUGEN THE JELLYFISH (82-12478) (24-15-0,220) of HANNAH'S PALS fought PTI (7-5412) (124-43-0,198) of WASTELAND II. RUGEN THE JELLYFISH vanquished PTI in a popular 1 minute brutal one-sided duel. This had nothing to do with Rugen's love life, except that winning probably put him in the mood, eh? ??RADAR?? (82-20310) (46-76-1,198) of DYSLEXICS UNTIE! II fought RED FUSION (6-5480) (94-67-0,195) of IT'S NEW!. ??RADAR?? was unbelievably bested by RED FUSION in a crowd pleasing 6 minute bout. Wow! Two of our stylemasters were matched up, here. Predictably, Red Fusion's footwork enabled him to outdo his opponent, who was at least a very gracious loser. Demonstrating that a solid knowledge base does not always translate into success in the arena, LITTLEST TYRANT (82-55890) (28-5-0,285) of THE NEPHEW fought HARV (82- 20046) (60-59-1,259) of 4-LETTER NAMES. LITTLEST TYRANT was savagely defeated by HARV in an exciting 8 minute bloody struggle. And all by herself down there in the Grand Challenger Initiates, our own Miss Congeniality, TALLAHASSE TINA (7-4889) (30-88-0,66) of BEACH BABES fought BOOKIE'S GUARD (104-5) (35-18-0,75) ofPLACE-HOLDERS. TALLAHASSE TINA overpowered BOOKIE'S GUARD in an action packed 1 minute uneven fray. Well done! Where has the time gone? I need to wrap this up. Until next turn, my friends, work on those life skills, and then we'll see how you've improved (or not).

I didn't want to get too physical because I could see that you were about to fall out of your bodice already and didn't want to encourage further display. -- Aloha Alice And two-two against standbys. -- the rest of the Beach Babes One A Day -- Well, I knew how that one was going to turn out! It was fun fighting you, though. -- Crysoprase Aloha Alice -- Sorry about the bathtub remark. I didn't mean anything suggestive... although I have, actually, faced some pretty impressive foes in my bathtub. *gets a dreamy look* -- Stassia All -- The regional tournament is almost upon us and here are my selections for Darkholm's squad: Slasher: Cooler Aimed Blow: Littlest Tyrant Lunger: He Hate Me Wall of Steel: Stassia Basher: Men Working Parry-Strike: Crysoprase Total Parry: Aloha Alice Parry-Riposte: Work in Progress Wildcard #1(AB): Harv Wildcard #2(WS): Reddi Whip We should find out the results later on this month. -- TMM These selections are not final. -- the Editor 26 August 09 There has been a run lately of personals and columns turning up in the wrong arenas. When you email in something, check and make sure you have the correct arena number! It's easy for a finger to slip onto the wrong key. When the receipt comes back, check again to be sure it went where you intended!
