I heard from Astri a year ago, or so. Despite a few low ebbs in her life, she sounded chirpy at her new address. I asked her if there was any significance in the name of her residence and she said that, yes, she was in the dog-house!

She also claimed to be the rightful holder of the crown that I, myself, believe to be mine...that of 'The Most Unsuccessful Bedalian of All Time'!

Sounds like time for a duel, Astri. Balloons at dawn... and the title goes to the loser!
