Survivor; Panama "Exile Island" (Official Thread)

January, 9, 2006 | Cuz it aint their money

[cuz_it_aint_their_money]

Stranded on an island off the coast of Panama,
16 strangers must live together and
compete for the million-dollar prize.

This time, the castaways will begin their competition as four tribes:
older men, older women, younger men and younger women.

At least one Survivor each week will be banished
to a separate island miles away from camp.

How will this change the game?
Who will outwit, outplay, and outlast all others?
Don’t miss a single episode of:

SURVIVOR; PANAMA “EXILE ISLAND”

premiering Thursday, February 2nd at 8 pm ET/PT.

I would boot her off just for having stupid hair.

LOL! And I agree with you about her being a feminazi (and she's probably the token gay castaway too, not the yoga guy :)

[MotleyGirl70]

I hope Tina is a better representative for Wisconsin than Susan "The Brut" Hawk was (from season one). I couldn't stand her.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

She's a "performance artist"

Like Yoko Ono?

[WHATNEXT?]

Oh come on...it's a pleasant cover. Sounds like an OK subject.

Alright I'll see if I can get a copy from the library and give a review. Somebody else volunteer to read it and report.....too..

[HighWheeler]

"He's cute. I can't wait to see him with his shirt off."


Can't you wimmen think of anything ELSE? What about his mind?

[MotleyGirl70]

Can't you wimmen think of anything ELSE?

Lol. Nope.

What about his mind?

His what? Who cares about his mind ;) hehe

[WHATNEXT?]

We're out of luck. Local library doesn't have any book of that title by that author....somebody might have to buy the book...not me.

Stunned, stunned, I say!

[silent_jonny]

Somebody else volunteer to read it and report.....too..

Nobody's read that book. It was published over two years ago (November 2003) and there's only three customer reviews on Amazon.com, and all of them are from North Carolina (probably friends of his). Except one:

This book truly has nothing to offer.The literary merit is poor,the characters thin and the plot predictable. The book is only good for one thing,an expensive coaster or a good way to start a fire. I think the author may in turn suffer from an Oedipus complex.Stay far away from this book.

Equals: Porno

LOL! That's what I was thinking too. Either that or he runs a strip club--a sleazy one.

[Central Scrutiniser]

Astronaut!

Dig it.

Performance artist Courtney, should be lots of unintentional laughs.

[Central Scrutiniser]

Airline pilots are a different breed, I used to hire them. He will piss someone off early.

Didn't a porno actor win one of the Survivors?

I believe BRIAN HEIDIK of survivor Thailand was in a soft porn movie.

[WHATNEXT?]

Wow, what a review....sure saved us the trouble...a little cruel, but telling it like it is. Loved it, what a laugh!

Now I’m not saying he is... And I’m not saying he ain’t... All I’m saying is this is what he has listed in his online bio. Take it however you will...

“Shane Powers was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska. After finishing high school, Powers moved to Los Angeles.

In 1999, Powers and two business partners established a boutique specialty marketing company with the goal of effectively branding products. (I’m still scratching my head trying to figure out just what this is. Anybody want to venture a guess?) On the side, Powers makes time to coach his son's football team. Previous employment included work as a club promoter and restaurant manager.

Powers describes himself as witty, outgoing and funny. His most important accomplishment, still in progress, is raising his son. His hobbies include basketball, softball, writing and frequenting bookstores. (Maybe the ones with all the X’s out front?)

Powers believes he can be the Sole Survivor because of his unmatched communication skills. He believes he is also a physical threat and has the ability to manipulate people and not have them be resentful. (Lord help us, he sounds like another Jonny Jackass!) If he wins, he wants to buy some real equipment and a great field for his son's football team.

Powers currently resides in Los Angeles under the watchful eye of his son, Boston. His birth date is November 28, 1970.”

Two appearances only on this game, unless there is another all-stars episode.

[tob2]

Can't stand her either! She is one of my very least favorite people from any episode of Survivor.

[silent_jonny]

I’m still scratching my head trying to figure out just what this is.

It's odd isn't it? I mean, if you're a car salesman then you say you're a car salesman. If you're a former NFL quarterback, then you say so.

But this guy--his job description is vague and nonspecific.

boutique specialty marketing company with the goal of effectively branding products

Owner of an Entertainment Marketing Company

Huh?

and frequenting bookstores. (Maybe the ones with all the X’s out front?)

LOL!!!

"Airline pilots are a different breed, I used to hire them. He will piss someone off early."

He looks kind hearted, we shall see. Can't wait for the show.

Now here's one who looks like he needs an attitude adjustment......}-

I'm afraid of Melinda
