Two Men Enter...One Man Leaves!!!

Paul, you scare me sometimes.  Besides, I have to concede to Mike Smith's awesomeness, attractiveness and hugalisciousness.  He's outclassed me in that for the last decade that he and I have known each other, I can't imagine this contest going any better in my favor than the 'Mallardi vs. Smith Conniving Match of the Millenia', back in '03.  

I flinched and swung first, even though I thought my opening volley of 'Unknowing Allies of Backstabbing' was fairly solid.  Something about Mike's 'Prime Presence', just unnerved me too much.  Heck, I'd say that the 'Mallardi vs. Smith II: Fabulous Prestige' rematch in '04 would've been a draw, if I hadn't been up for copyright infringemen on the name, or the magic tricks... Or y'know, the fact that Mike created that one.

This 'Mallardi vs. Smith III: Battle of the Snuggles' can't possibly turn out any differently... Can it?  Nope, throwing in the towel now.

Emocorn.

I think I just lost... for the first time in ten years... I have no response to that which doesn't make me sound like an egotistical maniac or self-depriving ass.  Clever move Malcolm... I'll get you next time... you and your nightmare teddybears of doom.
