I like wrestling mythology... That's brilliant. That's rather well thought out, and rather well written. Tell me it's yours. Please do. Makes me want to... to make a game. A game. About wrestling. But without any wrestling in it. Cause heck, I don't watch no wrestling.

I also want to create a game about wrestling. In fact, I have something I've been working on the past few years. Alas, it's only a start of a design so I can't show anything yet. Increpare, no I never saw that before so you really got me interested. In fact, I'm reading it right now I like the way Barthes thinks

Professional wrestling is for children. If, however, you wish to challenge me in amateur wrestling, well you'll find that I'm pretty much Mark Coleman.

Ah Super Joe, I suppose the self absorbed brilliance of your revelations prevents you from perusing Hyper linked web pages?

Well, your enthusiasm for all things non professional blinded you from realizing, the article goes on to describe nothing about the actual 'wrestling' aspect of professional wrestling, rather, describing the 'spectacle' aspect. Thus making what you'd blathered on about rather non-sequitur. No perhaps, if you regaled us with tales of Greek Drama you have put on, then, maybe, you could colour me impressed.

I once played the role of The Sphinx in Steven Berkoff's "Greek". You're not cultured enough to know anything about that though.

Oh, I'm sorry. I wrote a Greek tragedy in high school and we made it to provincials. Your 28 year old rage against Thatcherean Conservatism is fine, if you like mainstream British Drama.

Midnight was approaching, time to hurry. Peering into the dim surroundings, Margarita discerned some candles and an empty pool carved out of onyx. As Margarita stood in the pool, Hella, assisted by Natasha, poured a thick, hot, red liquid all over her. Margarita tasted salt on her lips and realized that she was being washed in blood. The bath of blood was followed by another liquid - dense, translucent and pink, and Margarita's head swam with attar of roses. Next she was laid on a crystal couch and rubbed with large green leaves until she glowed. The cat came in and began to help. It squatted on its haunches at Margarita's feet and began polishing her instep like a shoeblack. Margarita never remembered who it was who stitched her shoes out of pale rose petals or how those shoes fastened themselves of their own accord. A force lifted her up and placed her in front of a mirror: in her hair glittered a diamond crown. Koroviev appeared and hung on Margarita's breast a picture of a black poodle in a heavy oval frame with a massive chain. Queen Margarita found this ornament extremely burdensome, as the chain hurt her neck and the picture pulled her over forwards. However, the respect with which Koroviev and Behemoth now treated her was some recompense for the discomfort. 'There's nothing for it,' murmured Koroviev at the door of the room with the pool. 'You must wear it round your neck- you must... Let me give you a last word of advice, your majesty. The guests at the ball will be mixed - oh, very mixed - but you must show no favouritism, queen Margot! If you don't like anybody... I realise that you won't show it in your face, of course not - but you must not even let it cross your mind! If you do, the guest is bound to notice it instantly. You must be sweet and kind to them all, your majesty. For that, the hostess of the ball will be rewarded a hundredfold. And another thing - don't neglect anybody or fail to notice them. Just a smile if you haven't time to toss them a word, even just a little turn of your head! Anything you like except inattention - they can't bear that...' Escorted by Koroviev and Behemoth, Margarita stepped out of the bathing hall and into total darkness .
