Episode #3

So I got back from an enjoyable two nights of “learning” at Teacher’s Conference today. I didn’t watch last night because I was busy studying, but today I watched. So here are my random thoughts:

1. Was that game a traditional Fijian game? Interesting… boy, Sylvia was BAD, and Michelle wasn’t much better...

2. Rita needs a new swimsuit, hasn’t she ever watched survivor before?

3. Admit it, you wanted to Yau-Man to beat Dreamz’ (He isn’t in shape, huh?)

4. Why hasn’t anyone caught any fish?

5. Rocky just about killed himself trying to swallow that giant clam.

6. No one has really emerged with a strong alliance or strategy, I find that strange.

7. PIG SNOUTS… wow, if any of you remember Tom from Africa, he wouldn’t have had any problem with those. Gary was a machine, even with the broken rib from that big fall.

8. Ravu is in chaos, the littlest things get people voted off… Erica because she was intense and Anthony because he didn’t eat a peanut worm… weird tribe.

9. Sylvia needs to keep the #1 rule of Survivor in mind: SHUT UP!

10. Where did the Earl vote come from? Do we have another random voting...

11. It’s not looking too good for Gary “Papa Smurf” next week… so don’t feel too bad Anthony owners, you got two weeks.

Updated Handicapping: Sorry, no girls this week, but I’ve got my eye on a few (for handicapping purposes, Rog)
5. Boo (If he doesn’t kill himself)
4. Dre’
3. Earl
2. Alex
1. Edgardo

Sorry… John, I didn't even get full enjoyment of knowing you had Sylvia until the end...

P.S. – I don’t want to see Anthony ‘au natural’.

Episode #2

SO I have a few thoughts and musings on tonights episode.

1. I was thinking back to the glory days of the first Surivor: Borneo and how this Survivor is a parallel... here are my thoughts. I think that Dreamz' is Gervis's twin - basketball coach v. cheerleading coach. I think that Lisi is a man named Sue's twin. Anyone else see the deja vu here?

2. Sylvia escapes the ax. Too bad for Erica, I was thinking about handicapping her as a top 3 candidate. By the way, I think that Sue F.'s hair would look like Erica's when put in the humid zone like Fiji? Any thoughts friends?

3. So what about Boo... don't give that guy a power tool.

4. Sue and I (Again, others ARE allowed to join us for Thursday nights) tried a new martini tonight. Pretty good.

5. I have to say that Ravu doesn't like it will have any in the top 3 candidates if they keep losing. Even their leaders will get voted off after a merge.

6. So here are my top 3 candidates to win.
3 - Earl - level headed, nice guy, smart guy - in this case "Earl doesn't ahve to die..."
2 - Alex - I just like the guy
1 - Edgardo - I don't know, he is flying under the radar at the moment.

Please remember these picks are after week 2, so if I'm wrong I'll claim it was too early, but if I'm right I'm a genius.

Looks like someone gets hurt next week. I'm guessing Boo, how about You?

Keep on Survivin'

Conspiracy Theorists

I think that I need to rebutt all of you so called conspiracy theorists out there who think that I fix the participants. NOT TRUE! If we could all gather together to draft survivors I would, but that just ain't happenin'. Next time I will be publishing the date and time of the drawing, may be even have a little webcast for those of you out there so those who want proof can have it.

BTW, Sue, I got Dr. Vanillacuddys for Episode #2 (all those interested in attending a Rob viewing of Survivor please let me know)

Episode #1

Well... in true Rob fashion I am late to post for an episode. Oh well... bad habits are hard to break. For those of you who haven't read my notes in the past... they are just mindless ramblings- hopefully funny.

Episode #1 - An interesting start to the game as one survivor quits before even getting on the boat. What a loser. A nice adjustment by the survivor people in choosing teams though. It should be a nice twist this year that there are two immunity idols and we know at least one of them is back at camp. I don't know if I like the "Apprentice-like" addition of switching camps.

Tough luck for Dave and Jeff as Jessica can't untie the knot on the challenge and that sends her home. I was worried that Rita might be on the block.

A little to early to handicap the field, but I do have to say that Rocky and Dreamz' look like easy targets for being loud and annoying... or do they play the dominant part of Boston Rob and Shane in previous episodes. No Tom this time, although Yau-man looks like he could survive on rice and water for six years. Man, opening a coconut with your bare hands... try that at the grocery store.

Well, that is all for episode one. I hope to have a handicapped field after episode #2.

Later!

Today is the Day!

That's right fans... today is the day for the premier of Survivor: Fiji. Plant yourself in front of that TV and check cbs.com to see if you have another Tom (no complaints please) or another Wanda (bring 'em). I have e-mailed everyone their Survivors. I hope to post them also here.
