Hello all,
It is a little known fact among most Donut Dwellers that the travelling
merchants who run the Market each Wednesday in Sparkle peddle their wares
in the halls of the Immortals, too. We wizards refer to it as the Tuesday
Nuisance since, for whatever misbegotten reason, the Merchants seem to think
that setting up their tents in the Wizard Lounge is likely to be good for
business! Last week I accidentally knocked over their potion booth on my
way to the pie-dispenser, spilling a powerful love potion all over Death's
robes! As everyone knows, Death is hideously allergic to love, and his
sneezing has already wiped out entire populations in Southern Terel. *sigh*
Anyway, I ended up making small-talk with the vendors to try to gloss over
the awkwardness in the room, and thought I'd <inquire> about a few of the
items they mentioned they were looking for. Before I knew it, hours and hours
had passed, and I'd found myself inquiring about every item I could think
of! I'm such a data junkie that I totally lost track of the time, and ended
up missing my golf tee-time with Armageddon for the third week in a row. Great,
now I've got two of the Prime Entities not speaking to me.
Anyway, I wanted to share the nifty news with everyone that if you, like
me, are a sucker for data, you might want to <inquire> with the vendors
the next time you see them at the Wednesday Market. What those guys lack in
personality they more than make up for in terms of interesting information!

p.s. AVOID THE POTION BOOTH.
