Angie's competitiveness grew on me and she was a real team player.
So, she has tattoos and weird piercing's (not my style AT ALL), but I'm sure the producers try to get a good cross section of people as possible; it's a game of strategy and survival 'til the end for a cool million, not a fashion show.
Next week should be interesting to say the least.
LOL...I was hoping cuz was wrong and James would go....this man needs a jock strap or something...
I agree about James, gross shot of him in his underwear. Yuk! I think there were a few smart people on Koror who gave immunity to Ibrahim. They know he stinks at water challenges - he couldn't pull the trunk either. And you can bet there will be lots more water challenges. This was one of the best Survivor episodes ever. Nice surprise that they got to give out an immunity without talking strategy and then Ooolong had to vote without being able to consult about it. See you all next week.
Our TIVO didn't record the show.
This is one of the first survivors that I've ever missed, and it sounds like a good one.
Ack!!!!
I guess they made a smart choice. But I wondered at the time whether it was a sympathy vote after his slightly impassioned speech. Interesting that James didn't get a single vote from Koror. He must be perceived as a threat.
Forming alliances of the weak to push out strong Ian and Tom bothered me. Gregg and Jenn are snakes, and I wonder whether Ian and Tom understand that, or at least feel a shift in the winds. I hate to see weak people win Survivor! Do you think Tom and Ian are capable of scheming their way into staying til the end?
Tom has been the leadership on Koror that's for sure. He has led in the challenges and he even speaks up when saying who will sit out, another strategic choice. He is smart too and is trying to tone down that perception. He is probably too much of a good guy (like Rupert) to make it to the end. Coby is starting to look a little like Richard Hatch to me, he is a schemer. Hope he doesn't make it far.
"I would much rather have her on my team than some of the men I've seen on this and in past challenges."
I've been thinking the same thing. I was turned off be the tatts -- still am -- but she earned respect because she really tried harder than most. I was disappointed that she got voted off. I think she would still be there if it had been a normal tribal council. I don't understand why the other team gave Ibrehim immunity. All looks, no substance.
"The other team wants them to stay because they see them as less of a threat."
Then they haven't been paying attention. Steph has more game than anybody in the show. Ib is a lightweight. Puff and Stuff.
"Our TIVO didn't record the show."
I guess that mean you've got TiNO.
Yes she does. I'd hate to see her get the boot "early" into the game.
The other team has slugs that are just coasting along. Ibraheem ,( whatever), is a musclebound wussy, useless in every way.
He's one of their weakest players so Koror wanted them to keep him, leading them to vote off one of the strongest players. I know I'd rather go up against him then Angie!
Someone else mentioned that Coby was becoming Richard Hatch. I totally disagree. He's a much stronger at challenges then I thought he would be.
ITG's interesting..I can't take a SwissArmy knife on an aurlplane, but it's OK if I board wearing one stuck into my eyebrow or ear..
See..Cuz has been giving us hints...first off..easiest to decipher was his Freeper screen handle...admittedly, it's unusual, even among Freepers..so focus on the first words.."cuz_it_aint.."...."C_I_A"......there you go...he's obviously in comms at Langley, and he uses the vast resources of the government to intercept the CBS satellite feeds to obtain the programs well in advance. I mean, if I had access to the NSA satellites and computer networks, I could "figure" it out also
I haven't quite figure out the last two words..."their_money".."T_M?" could it be his initials? I was going to try to hack into the CIA directory last night, to look for matching names, but I decided to watch the American Idol results show instead...Or, it could mean something else..I mean, someone as smart as "cuz" wouldn't leave so obvious a clue..or would he?
So, what else could "T_M" stand for?
(Cuz..hope you enjoy..my little way of saying thanks for your efforts...the show wouldn't be anywhere near as fun without the thread..)
Top Man
Tough Meanie
Toilet Maintenance
Ken, I think you're on to something here. We need to put some serious additional thought into this if you think it's safe to do so. I mean, this is the CIA that we're talking about here.
The Man
Um, did you take me off your ping list on purpose?
Well lets see . . .
It could stand for "The Master, or
It could stand for "Top Man, or
It could stand for "Totaly Mental.
Or it could just stand for "their_money" as in "Cuz it aint their money". (A little Rush lingo for those of you in Rio Linda)
You see, Rush used to reply thusly whenever anybody asked him why he objected to the Congress spending our tax dollars.
Anyway Ken, while I do admit to being a federal employee, to say I work for the CIA would be a stretch!
BTW, Happy Saint Patrick's Day to one and all!
A bit early to be nippin at the Guinness isn't it Ken?
A Thousand Pardons! For the life of me, I can't explain why you are no longer on the Ping List, since I assume that you did not send a Freepmail asking to be removed.
Of course you didn't send a freepmail, if you did why would you be asking? Does this sound like I'm rambling? It does! Doesn't it?
Rest assured, you have been added back in! And thank you for bringing this to my attention.
Again, please accept my sincerest apologies.
