The next manchurian candidate?

More suspicous activity has been observed from office 247 this week. As Sylvie's office mate is clearly an innocent bystander not party to her insidious and underhanded activities we can only conclude that Madame Noel has been up to her old tricks.

As you may be aware, Sylvie claims to have done her studies in the area of psychology. No doubt many human subjects were exposed to horrific experiments to sate Syvlie's so-called "scientifiic inquiries". It should be noted that Sylvie completed her studies abroad. I believe that her claim is that she received her PhD from Australia, but I am sure that she probably was drawn to a country where standards on human experimentation were much more, shall we say, relaxed.

It was because of my knowledge of her background that I was startled to hear the muted but still distinct sounds of Disney soundtrack music coming from Sylvie's office this afternoon. This can only mean one thing: psychological warfare experiments are being conducted by Sylvie as we speak. Perhaps her poor embattled office mate is her expermental subject for these horrific trials. I suggest that we start an immediate appeal to Amnesty International to save Sylvie's office mate from this sub-human existance. SylvieWatchers everywhere unite!

Save Sylvie's office mate!

Cloaks and Daggers

If I had to choose one word to describe Sylvie it would choose this one: devious.

Sylvie ambled into work nimbly this week, the cast that had been restricting her movement having mysteriously disappeared over the weekend. You would think that such a momentous occasion would be a topic of conversation, but no, Sylvie decided to keep the removal of her cast quiet around the office. It was this gesture that tipped me off to the probable solution to the mystery of the cast. You may remember, dear reader, that I had my doubts as to whether Sylvie had indeed injured her leg or was just wearing the cast as some sort of disguise. I think that the shady disappearance of the cast has given us our answer. Sylvie decided to wear the cast for several weeks so that we would get used to her walking slowly around the office. Now that she has removed her cast she'll be able to sneak up on us much more effectively as during the past several weeks we have been conditioned to think that her mobility is impaired. Devious.

It has come to my attention that Sylvie is organising foreing language courses at work. First Italian, and then, yesterday, there was a rumour passing through the office that Russian would be offered. Another suspect staff member was seen conferring with her on several occasions regarding these classes. What could these two be up to? Perhaps they are recruiting for a cadre of super-spies trained right here in the arts of stealth and subterfuge under the guise of learning languages to use on holiday? Fear not - we shall be watching these so-called language classes carefully during the following weeks.

You may have noticed that in Sylvie's own blog she mentions that she is laying traps in order to root out the identity of the members of our organisation. Let me just assure you that for every trap there is a counter trap, for every plot there is a plan, for every scheme there is a ... well you get the idea. I am not one to be taken in by the normal techniques: a hair across the desk drawer; a piece of tape fastening the door shut; a carefully measured out arrangement of papers; a strong encryption algorithm. We are everywhere and nowhere at the same time. We are SylvieWatch and we will prevail!

Une journee dans la vie de Sylvie Noel a la fois!

A Fifth Column?

There were no posts yesterday as we scrambled to try to locate the source of the internal leak that alerted Sylvie to the presence of our organisation. We were expecting that she would eventually discover our existence, but the speed at which she referenced us in her blog led us to only two possible conclusions. Either there is a secret Sylvie sympathiser among our numbers who has alerting her of our activities; or Sylvie spends an inordinate amount of time googling herself in order to find out if anybody has mentioned her name on the internet.

A Sylvie sympathiser within our ranks could compromise our entire endeavor. Biased reports could come from such a sympathiser, and - in the worse case - they could brainwash other members of the SW team. Thankfully, we were unable to locate such an individual, and are able to restart our watching activities today with confidence. Thanks to all of you for your support and concern during these trying times.
