Title: OUTRAGE IN JHELOM

Author: Staff Reports

Lord Kendal�s diplomatic visit to Jhelom did not begin auspiciously. Kendal told his welcoming delegation, �I didn�t come here for my health. I can think of other ways of enjoying myself.� He then asked, �Aren�t most of you descended from pirates?�

On a tour of the city, Kendal shared more of his thoughts:

• Of the library:

�Jhelom has a library? Whatever for?�

• Of the performing

arts center: �It�s a vast waste of space.�

• On meeting a

Britain-born Jhelom woman: �You can�t have been here too long, you still look like a woman.�

• On visiting Jhelom�s

graveyard, �I guess not ALL your warriors do so well.�

• Of the tropical

northwestern Jhelom island: �This is what I thought the entire town would look like.�

Kendal did show some sympathy for his hosts. �We have that problem in Britain too,� he said of Jhelom�s protestors. �The peasants were saying they wanted more leisure time. Now they�re

complaining they�re unemployed.�

It is a mystery how Kendal came to be chosen for the mission, particularly in light of his comment at a Merchants� Guild meeting last year: �People think there�s a rigid class system in Britain, but dukes have been known to marry whores. Some have even married girls from Jhelom.�

Lord Kendal is expected to offer his apologies this evening, at a meeting with Jhelom�s military leadership.
