                             Notes from the arena champ.

Introducing Pesky's Pole!  Johnny Pesky, aka Mr. Red Sox, played ball for the Boston 
Red Sox for about 10 years before being traded to the Tigers.  But he quickly came 
back to the Red Sox, where he stayed in various roles -- as a coach, broadcaser, and 
special instructor -- for over 50 years.

The right field foul line pole at Boston's Fenway Park stands a scant 300 feet from 
home plate.  Johnny, a contact hitter who rarely hit home runs, once wrapped a short 
fly ball around the foul pole for a home run.  The dugout razzed him and called it 
"Pesky's Pole."  The name ended up sticking, largely because of a pitcher named Mel 
Parnell, who later become a broadcaster and used the name regularly.  Pesky's Pole was 
officially dedicated to him on his 87th birthday in 2007.

                                      SPY REPORT

     It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters.  Look on my work, ye mighty, 
and despair!  NAWLINS RU2?  Who?  FIELDS OF DREAMS is the top team these days, 
buddies!  NAWLINS RU2 had cause to celebrate, after WARM ELEVATORS got 17 points by 
beating LET'S DANCE.  Win some, lose some.  Speaking of which, FROZEN BALLROOM was 
winsome, after beating PRIVATE PICKER and seeing him lose 13 points.  Well, 
Duelmaster PESKY'S POLE challenged WANDERERS' DROPPED A STITCH.  Is a 16-3-0 good 
enough?  DROPPED A STITCH found out that KATI-TEI isn't a democracy.  You've gotta be 
the best to be Duelmaster here!  Word has it one team in KATI-TEI is taking speech 
lessons to try to bore their opponent to death.  I'll bet it works.   
     And how sociable are KATI-TEI's warriors?  Come, let us see.  Perhaps the 
warriors of THE BLUES 41 should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided 
team...  Like a pup with its tail between its legs, DEATH'S  ARMY scurried away from 
THE BLUES 41.  Oh, the shame!  Is it charming personality?  Conversational abilities? 
Good oral hygiene?  Whatever it is, SLIPPER is the most challenged warrior.  Willing 
to win at any cost is BRICK IVY, who challenged WHY ME, 8 points junior.  Our 
sympathies, WHY ME!  I thought BRICK IVY showed great skill and promise when he 
defeated WHY ME.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on...  DROPPED A STITCH of 
WANDERERS, possessing a sorry record of 20-30-0, lost his last battle to PESKY'S POLE 
of FIELDS OF DREAMS.  Young warriors, take note!  Such is a failure's lot!  A moment 
of silence for DROPPED A STITCH, who died an untimely death at the hands of PESKY'S 
POLE.  In the spirit of revenge, we call upon WANDERERS to act!  Will THE LOSERS 
never avenge CAN I QUIT NOW?'s death???  Oh brave(?) new world, that has such people 
in it!  'Tis new to me!  Oh hard!  that to strike a flame, the match itself must 
needs be wasting!   
     Do not think spyreporting in KATI-TEI is the highlight of my life.  My fingers 
tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable 
character.  Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for KATI-TEI?  
On that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir

Pesky's Pole, a salute to you, Duelmaster. -- Senior Smyth and Team

You can thank me, Pesky! If I hadn't been such an overconfident schlock, I would not 
have lost to Kung-Fu Master, and you would still be challenging for the crown! But I 
was, and you did, and you are, so I both congratulate and envy you. -- Frozen Ballroom

Slipper, I needed a new pair of shoes. One more, please. -- Homeless

Why Me? That's just what I was thinking; "why me?". -- Street Car Cafe

Cry Of Voices, now we know the answer to street Car's question of last round. Have a 
latte on me. -- Starbucks

J.D. Short, your visit made me feel both taller and warmer. (wink) -- Warm Elevator

May The Ides Of March pass you safely and you need not say "et tu, Brute?". -- Senior 
Smythe.

Pesky's Pole -- So, this is kind of embarrassing, but you know what they say, "If you 
see something, say something!" I must say... Uh, your pole is kinda short. SORRY! 
SORRY!  But it had to be said! -- Private Picker

The Losers -- Apparently I was aiming a bit higher than I was supposed. I guess we 
will have to see if I do better next time. -- 2nd Lt. Laceration

McCovey Cove -- Where were the cloves? I heard they smell great... WAIT! YOU DON'T 
HAVE ANY CLOVES?! -- SGT Sleigher

Robert Shaw -- I admit to having been hammered before, but seriously?! -- Major Mayhem

Bite Me -- I respectfully decline, but I will smack you several times with a pointy 
object. -- Airborne Ranger

To all -- Master Beru tells me that those called "Postal Workers" seem confused and 
that is somehow affecting our ability to make challenges and make other changes. We 
regret the unfortunate results of the 2nd Lt. Laceration and Also-Ran fight. -- 
Private Picker
