COME ON!!!

Seriously Eric? Are you serious? I think you and Dolphin-boy Ian should get together and have a sappy insecure love child that needs to be loved so badly that it will do anything.... ANYTHING to win "redemption" in the game of Survivor. Ugh, it's like he has never watched the show. GROAN.

I should offer a Survivor prep-course:
Lesson 1. Leave your desire for "integrity" at home. You either have it or you don't. If you need to talk about your integrity, then you probably don't have any. Embrace your lack of integrity... you'll go much farther.
Lesson 2. NEVER GIVE UP IMMUNITY. If you're tempted to, refer to lesson 1.
Lesson 2a. If you have hidden immunity and you think you should play it... PLAY IT!!!! DUH!!!
Lesson 3. Listen to Jeff during Tribal Counsel. He always draws attention to what's about to happen. PAY ATTENTION!!
Lesson 4. DO NOT believe people who proactively speak during Tribal Counsel. They are liars. If they question your integrity, refer to Lesson 1 and use the phrase "pot calling the kettle black" (alternate phrase choice: "so your s*** don't stink?").

Follow my four simple rules and you will go far in the game (or at least avoid looking like an idiot when you get voted off).
------------------------
I personally felt awful for Eric. Did you see how he ran away after Jeff snuffed his torch? Poor little guy.
------------------------
I can't decide if I want Amanda or Cirie to win. I think Cirie has played a better game, but she's at that point where she needs to start letting the jury know that she's been the puppet master. You can't wait until the final tribal counsel to say, "I've been doing these things all along." People don't buy it. She has the benefit of that no one actively hates her or blames her for them getting voted off (except maybe Ozzi who hates everyone and blames everyone)... and what's the deal with Ozzi's poncho? Douche bag.

Really they should just let James pick the winner.

Oh, Eric... you let me down. Your naivety and James's bum finger undid my chances of winning.

Looks like it's down to Kim, Danielle, Jaime, and Jenny.
Original drafts:
Katherine: Yau-Man and Jason
Kevin: James and Erik
Jenny: Cirie and Mary
Danielle: Ozzy and Natalie
Kim: Amanda and Joel
Jaime: Parvati and Chet
GMo: Eliza and Tracy
Kristin: Ami and Mikey B

I am looking forward to:

• Amanda trying to convince the jury of the quality of her game.
• Natalie trying desperately to make it into the final three.
• James's commentary during the Final Tribal/reunion.
• Yau-man's return.
• and (hopefully) some awesome Jeff Probst travel shots
  

I envision:

1. him holding on to the fin of a dolphin which swims him to a industrial port,
2. where a giant crane picks him up using a claw,
3. dropping him into the seat of a rickshaw,
4. running along side a moving train which he jumps onto,
5. climbs on top of where he finds a hang-glider,
6. jumping off as the train goes over a bridge,
7. sailing near a hot-air balloon,
8. going across a zip line from the glider into the basket of the balloon (not sure how they'll work the mechanics but I think if anyone could do it, Jeff could),
9. and finally the balloon crashing through the ceiling of the studio for the finally!!

Panache!
