                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, IAYE?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? 
Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, THE YOUNG ONES, since CLOWDER W/ 
CLAWS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Gee, I'm impressed, a 
4-1-0 is nice, but don't get cocky, CLOWDER W/ CLAWS, the Fates teach humility, and 
the Fates are proud.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see =^.^= win a 
fight and gain 19 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, BACKSTABBATH beat MARY CATHERINE and 
MARY CATHERINE lost 15 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  And it's out with the old, 
in with the new, as =^.^= takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old 
Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  The Dragon's Blood Inn, humph!  I've tasted better ale at 
mortuaries.  Where do they get this stuff?  From IAYE's trash dumps?   
     My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start 
talking.' I loved that woman.  THE YOUNG ONES, I suppose you'll be glad to know you 
were this turn's most avoided team.  Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And 
who led the way in this mass act of cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It 
was LENPROS.  Ha ha ha ha!   
     Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals.  I volunteer for IAYE's 
morgue.  More variety.  Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.  
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.   
     There's got to be a better place in IAYE to get a drink than The Dragon's Blood 
Inn!  Any suggestions?  Phlllt!  Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of 
IAYE.  I feel much better now.  Paste this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the 
kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens
