okay, this is really starting to be an interesting show.

Poor Charlie, blindsided totally. Well, at least he will have three glorious alone days with Marcus . I will be so happy to seel the backside of Corrine. "He deserved to be here?" Talk about slapping the others in the face.

Sugar is proving to be one smart young woman. She is being underestimated by all, and could well take this all. Randy must go. He is disgusting. Kenny must be more careful and not get too cocky.

All in all, this has been a season of surprises and blindsides, it has been very enjoyable to watch.

I, on the other hand, find this season right on the edge of "why do I watch this program?". Obviously I'm still watching or wouldn't be commenting, but all the backbiting really gets to me, cumulatively, not just from this season.

I read what is probably an older New Yorker article recently, about 3 Mexican fishermen who remained alive on a boat with a dead motor, by fishing for all kinds of usually indigestible stuff (no fire to cook it with), drinking their own urine until they had rigged up rain-catching material, etc. Their boss & the boss's friend died, from starvation (they were pickier eaters) & possible other medical reasons, but the 3 fishermen stayed alive. They wound up in Indonesia, I think.

At any rate, safe to say none of the Survior contestants on this time would have survived that trip.

I am happy to see Sugar prove smarter than your average bimbo, & also almost fast enough to win the fire-starter contest. However, I do not think she will last through a final-3 physical ordeal. And what's with Crystal, the athlete, doing so very poorly at all the athletic challenges? So I guess I will at least watch this one to the end.

Go Bob! I loved the fake idol - that was a great idea! I do wonder if he will ever have the occasion to try to fake it.

I want to drown Randy.
