However, that makes it even more important that I hang onto this job! So let's look at things. First, we've had the Split, and that seems to have drawn off some of our Old Reliables. I'm glad for them that they've been doing so well, but cheese louise! They WILL be missed. Novgorodny Vir reports the following significant point movements, not that he did the math himself. It was the clerks in the Commission office who did the heavy lifting. Shiny Penny, up 31. 1977 AMC Matador, down 16. Apparently someone in this area has been "charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees." Sounds like some kind of training regimen to me. No challenges. Possibly Color Me Suave has been avoided, and if so, Dragonbane Guild was doing it. "Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors." Excuse me, is that the same language the rest of us speak? And why didn't he PASS ON TO US the "disquieting rumors"? That is SOOO like Vir, putting on an air of mysterious knowledge and not telling us anything so we can see how SHALLOW it is. We had ten fights, with no challenges and two standbys. None of them were action-packed, and none were exciting, and what does THAT say about us today? OZAWINDIB (7-6212) (27-21-0,94) of SENTINELS fought PUMA (35-2682) (18-12-0,82) of HERO ALLIANCE. OZAWINDIB overpowered PUMA in a 1 minute one-sided fight. Ozy's been here a while, but Puma's new. One of you guys should show him around, where to get a good drink, which barbers in the Infirmary to avoid, that kind of thing. Make him feel welcome. PINCH BLISTER (18-9859) (43-61-0,169) of CENTER FOR OLDS fought VIRGINIA, NO SANTA (65-6623) (36-56-1,168) of GOT IT FOR CHRISTMAS. PINCH BLISTER was narrowly defeated by VIRGINIA, NO SANTA in a 5 minute fight. Virginia is all wound up because of the stress of remembering that there is no Santa. Do NOT cross Virginia at this time of year. THE HYPHEN-DASH (42-4499) (43-38-1,168) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought CRYSALIS GUARD (107-29) (0-0-0,200) of Fine Imported Standbys. THE HYPHEN-DASH was vanquished by CRYSALIS GUARD in a 1 minute uneven fight. I think we should send that Guard back to Crysalis. He's a foreigner and doesn't know our ways. CAJETAN (7-6036) (27-30-1,153) of SENTINELS fought RUTH (18-10121) (37-29-0,178) of SHEPHERDS. CAJETAN was handily defeated by RUTH in a 3 minute gruesome uneven melee. Not only handily defeated, but ruthlessly. ANZAHANZEK (7-6204) (29-19-0,181) of SENTINELS fought JELLO KNUCKLES (42-4554) (49-43-0,159) of COLOR ME SUAVE. ANZAHANZEK was savagely defeated by JELLO KNUCKLES in a crowd pleasing 6 minute brawl. Cherry jello, the crowd always likes that. AZAGHAL (81-1223) (41-39-1,182) of DRAGONBANE GUILD fought THE UPRIGHT MAN (10- 5185) (31-38-0,170) of ALASTARIAN IDOL. AZAGHAL vanquished THE UPRIGHT MAN in a 1 minute mismatched fight. That's what you get, The, going around posing as a dragon. MOIST TOWELETTE (42-4430) (94-47-4,192) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought POCKET NEWS (19-5364) (25-18-0,203) of THE MAGNIFICENT MAGS. MOIST TOWELETTE overpowered POCKET NEWS in a crowd pleasing 1 minute mismatched match. Ah, Moist really wiped of that page! Might want to change its name to Moist Eraser. 1977 AMC MATADOR (42-4116) (66-54-0,192) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought CLOTTO (107- 25) (0-0-0,181) of Fine Imported Standbys. 1977 AMC MATADOR was vanquished by CLOTTO in a popular 1 minute mismatched brawl. And that makes the standbys two and oh. OBROJOBO (7-5869) (41-36-1,250) of SENTINELS fought HEINRIK (81-1257) (54-50- 1,191) of CLAN LONGBEARD. OBROJOBO was devastated by HEINRIK in a 1 minute mismatched fight. That's got to be embarrassing. For the title: ALMOST PRETTY (42-4496) (77-41-0,263) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought SHINY PENNY (32- 3789) (85-137-2,220) of FOUND IN THE SAND. ALMOST PRETTY was vanquished by SHINY PENNY in a 2 minute uneven Title battle. Good try, Almost, and good work, Shiny. Congratulations.
