Hmmm, **Scylla** fails to comment on _death-by-grain_. Something is either a-miss or he is just ignoring me like the fascist dickhead he’s been accused of being. \ **Scylla** is **John Corrado**! ---

This was just another thing that **Witness** lied to us about, on top of all the other lies. But it’s still total bullshit, because I doubt you’d die that fast. No pain no grain. ---

Well, “Pseudonym” is Silo returning, or someone pretending to be Silo returning. Either way, one thing is sure. It’s remarkably unfunny. ---

Sure, it’s disappointing for Capriati. But Henin played an awesome game! One to watch for the future, if not next Saturday. Mr. Pseudonym, we’ll be with you shortly. Very funny indeed. ---

You must be talking about today’s semi-Finals and Henman’s opponent, Goran Evan-Is-a-Fish ? BTW, did anyone else notice that: > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by JeffB \* > Capriati lost Is an anagram of: **A Silo tic trap** …clearly, yet another subliminal attempt to undermine Mod confidence…I’m also starting to worry someone’s sprinkling these clotted cream and jam scones with something untoward. Or maybe the leaves in the Earl Grey aren’t all they should be. Stiill, only need to hang in there 'til Sunday. Todays prediction: Henman by three sets to one. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by London\_Calling \* > **Todays prediction: Henman by three sets to one.** Ah, there’s nothing like unfettered optimism. I reckon he loses, by the same margin.
