How about the Minotaur?  Given Blade's like for Tarou, that would be pretty
accurate. ;)

BTW, is it looking more and more like P-Hawk had a correct assessment, or
is it just me?

Kodachi called him on that, BTW, but he didn't get disqualified because he
didn't make contact.

This may sound like a stupid question, but where the hell is the safe in
the 'evil' mansion at Nibelheim?  (Not in the flashback at Kalm; later in
the game when you're there for real.)  I looked around for a bit, but just
couldn't find that stupid safe.  And damn it, I *want* that Odin materia! <g>
