                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of 
BLACKSTONE brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  If The Swinging Aardvark is 
buying drinks for PHILANTHROPISTS29's good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry 
before long.  A 1-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  With any luck, I can sneak into The 
Swinging Aardvark and join A LOT TO LAUGH's celebration over their good record this 
turn.  6th place, not bad.  If The Swinging Aardvark is buying drinks for 
PHILANTHROPISTS 122's good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry before long.  A 
1-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  With any luck, I can sneak into The Swinging Aardvark 
and join PHILANTHROPISTS 116's celebration over their good record this turn.  16th 
place, not bad.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see YOY SMILEBLOOM win a 
fight and gain 19 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, YOY SMILEBLOOM beat KITE RYDER and 
KITE RYDER lost 14 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  Due to absence, and inability 
to defend the throne, CRAZY 4 has lost the Title of Duelmaster.  Start setting that 
alarm earlier!  And it's out with the old, in with the new, as OIL LEAK takes the 
Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  I'm not in a very 
good mood today, but why am I telling you this?  You want to know what's new, don't 
you, BLACKSTONE?   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  
BLACKSTONE, I am losing what little hope I had in you.  CRAZY 88 2 the most avoided 
team?  What insult will suffice, I cannot say.  And it looks like HIGHWAY TO HELL 
avoided them the most this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  
Hmph.   
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  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 BLACKSTONE to get a drink than The Swinging 
Aardvark!  Any suggestions?  Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you 
have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  I see the crowds are getting 
restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens
