When animals became a key ingredient in fashioning an eagle

the tactic to hit them became yet one more cheap trick

the incompetent and the surly/something to prove about the

worm in their pants set took to with a vengeance.

Everyone bitches about how Avalon is becoming, everyone whines

about stockrooms, everyone whines, period. Guess what, everyone?

You make Avalon what it is. So if you don't like it, guess who's

fault it is?

Got a challenge for you - one that might require more courage

and fortitude than you 'brave' types out there can manage, probably.

How about practicing what you all preach for one week. No stockroom,

no extraneous mount killing, no over picking...

What? no takers? Why am I so NOT surprised.
