That's true, but then when
Phantom asked him about it he hinted yet again (this time sarcastically on purpose, I think). That's only one of
Mac's hints. Do you think they're all for the same 'second language' reason?
And I'm still looking at
Nog. For the record I think he's been going after
Nerwen for the same reason people went after
Boro yesterday, but he's pushing it a lot harder than
Boro was. It makes me wonder - especially since
Nerwen got votes yesterday.
