Rufus was proud of his newly done nails, despite the crudity of the manicurist who kept taking breaks to play a tune. Yes, OPI's "Pawsitively Pitch Black" was just the right shade to best complement his fur.

In trying to take Irkutsk (attacking from Kamchatka), Ramsuh rolled four attacking skulls. Unfortunately, Shigo rolled three defending skulls and held the territory. Local legend tells of the calamity that happened next.

Hee. "NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons....
