The general idea behind this corner is to provide the readers with some amusement by telling gossips about the scene. It's not our intention to offend people but just to have some fun. We have no 'aversion' or 'hate' towards any other group on the scene, so don't take it all to serious. But with a gossip corner you never know if its really true or just... ---- Rumours go that 'Jack Tramiel' has been attacked by a black Jaguar.
