Survivor anyone?

I think this is going to be one of the best Survivors in a while. The first episode was great! Love Rupert.

I so totally agree! I really like the Drake team. On the last Survivor I never really connected with any of the people or teams, but the Drake team....oh yeah!

Yes, i really like the Drake team!! And Rupert is sooo funny...as of now, i want him to win

Of course our power went off (due to hurricane Isabella) last night at 8pm!!, and we had my mom tape it and drove to her house last night to pick it up and watched it around 11pm...got to fast forward through commercials!!

Is Rupert the hippy guy?

Did you see the previews for next week though? He supposedly gets po'd at the other guy and breaks their fishing spear! I don't care how mad you are at someone, you DO NOT break their only spear that inables you to catch fish. Now the whole tribe is going to go hungry because of his nasty attitude. I hope he gets voted off after that little stunt!

I've never watched it. Probably won't, but you guys have fun!

**slick** · 09-19-2003, 11:20 AM

I've never laughed so hard in my life (except for reading Richard's posts..). That Rupert is gas but he won't last long because he doesn't have the stamina to get through it. I noticed he was bearing a wedding ring.....shudder......

I also found it amusing that yesterday's theme at Dick's Place matched Survivor. Fate or what???

It certainly looks interesting: only the first show and they all ready had 3 naked men running around and one in a dress. I sure got a chuckle out of that one!

I really like Sandra. I thought that was totally cool how she spoke Spanish and got some good deals, I bet she scored some "staying points" that way.

I thought it was hilarious when Rupert took the shoes.

Was I the only one, or did anyone else notice that exact same dog in the background? It was like following them around or something!

I thought was was very rude, and if someone did that to me I would kick him right where it mattered!!!

I don't care if it's a game, but that will get him kicked off in the end, especially since he breaks their spear on the next episode! He annoys the crap out of me, coming off so high and mighty. He has no physical stamina, and it not an asset to the tribe at all in my opinion.

**wolfsoul** · 09-19-2003, 12:10 PM

Well, it might just be me, but I'd do alot more than steal shoes for a million dollars!

**Christiansmommy** · 09-19-2003, 12:48 PM

I dont know that i would personally steal the shoes, b/c i would feel guilty, even though it is a survivor game, but i thought it was good thinking on his part...he got some good stuff for trading them, for his team...its all about surviving. I just kinda like the guy, b/c he is a counselor/mentor for troubled teens and i think that is a respectable job...so he must have a good heart, but he could change later in the game...we'll soon find out

**RICHARD** · 09-19-2003, 02:12 PM

The interesting thing about the show is that you
HAVE to suspend all the regular rules in everyday life......

politeness and decorum get tossed out the door!

Check this out.....

Probst doesn't give you rules-
he just explains what you have to do.

Notice one group tossed stuff in the trailing group's path...

Me? i would have taken a dirt nap in front of their cannon....

Coming into work this morning I heard alot of jokes on the radio about the Mortician.
"Hey is that a dead chicken??? I don't care if it smells foul, give it to me and I'll clean it!"

As for Rupert, I just howled when he took the shoes. Sure it was dirty play but what he said and the look on his face cracked me up (no pun intended

)

**luckies4me** · 09-19-2003, 03:20 PM

If it were me, I would steal for my team too, but I still find it rude and I would STILL probably go kick him in his nards if I had the chance! But to benefit my team, I would most likely do anything.

BUT..........this guy does not seem like a caring individual to me, just look how he talked about the younger guy. If he works with troubled teens he would be there trying to help him not making fun of him.

And personally, anyone who breaks our only fishing spear would be gone in a heartbeat, but I guess everyone missed the part where he got so pissed off that he took it out on the whole tribe???????? Looks as if he has some issues of his own.

**PepperRSM** · 09-19-2003, 03:44 PM

I think it was a smart idea for him to steal the shoes, it totally benifited for their team. Why would you be polite to the other team? It's not like they get to vote you out. This is kinda the point of the game....to have your team win.

I mean, the other team was stupid enough to just leave their stuff by a person from the other team anyway
