Mano, Manischewitz what a whiner

by Snakebit Sal on November 9, 2009

With the merge happening this week, the Hidden Immunity Idols have made their way out of the game. With only one person using his immunity idol for protection from the 12 people voting and  11 people not knowing hat the other idol has left the game when Eric was voted out.

Russell’s new stratagey seems to be make an alliance with everyone who he can sweet talk into some sort of deal. If Russell wouldn’t have come into the game and messed with everyone would Foa Foa still have lost and would we think of him as the Devil or just a Whirling Dervish of energy who competes all out? He’s made all kind of alliances but never needed one to save him, but has backstabbed someone that was an alliance. Now moving to the other tribe, he has a whole new bag of suckers to lore into playing his deadly game! However minus the HII which he decided to play he will need many, many friends or the big catchall, he needs to win individual immunity every challenge until the numbers are in his favor.

Clearly there is no leader but there is power in numbers and the 7 Galu tribemates have that power. But as was seen last night, that doesn’t always mean your safe. Your only as safe as your weakest link. Will the girls worry that the boys are after them or will they stick together as the old Galu’s.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall and now he is the first juror and initial resident of Ponderosa(partII). Who will join mighty Humpty next week remains to be seen. Everytime someone is seen talking to someone alone now will get the rumors started, and boy do we have some talkers.

GOOD MOrning Jt, Sal, SAl,You have the cute picture, Jt what is that freakish thing you have on both of them, really.Looks like Ted has a new facebook picture, better Ted. Eric truly got what he deserved being overly cocky has a tendency to do you in. T he big baby could not believe it, when he was totally blindsided. The look on his face was priceless.

Amazing Race was great I thought Sam and Dan were going to punch each other out.That hay thing was pretty frustratingI know it would make me crazy, It was good to see the globetrotters #1 again Sam and Dan feel so threatened by those guys. Luckily for Gary and Matt they got a non elimanation round, otherwise they would have been gone. I hope they can manage too stay in the game.

Because look at the size of them….They can get places
alot faster and with more ease than most. Just their
size is indimidating.

Look how quickly they unrolled the hay. That took strengh.
I realize the weaker ones perfomed too but it was a lot
harder and it took them more time.

Reply

DonnaP November 9, 2009 at 9:07 am

I agree that they are bigger in size than the other team, but the challenges are not always about size. Sometimes the size is a disadvantage.

Phillip Knudsen November 9, 2009 at 9:19 am

aggie… Edys/Dryers ice cream went on sale a while back at Wal-Mart in West Mobile for $2.25 a carton so I caught the vendor in the store and had him bring in all of the french vanilla he had in his truck that day. Usual price is about $3.85 a carton.

Reply

aggie… the only sticky-icky purpose I have for the french vanilla is to collect as much hot fudge on top as possible.

Some athletic challenges favor the Globetrotters and some don’t. Hay rolling was good for them. Rowing an inflatable boat was bad.

Okay PK, what I wanna know is can you possible eat it all before freezer burn sets in???? If the answer is yes, you must be much larger than the pic I have seen!! (not that there’s anything wrong with that!)

Back to business, the race was and is AWESOME, so glad it was a non elimination round, I’m rooting for pinky and the brain, they seem like nice normal people (even with the pink hair!)

Me at 30… 6′1″ 235 plus 32″ waist 26″ thighs, 47″ chest, 19″ biceps and 18″ calves. (body builder, power lifter, poser lol, sex)
Me at 66… 6′1″ 180 32″ waist. (skier, softball, basketball, football, running wind sprints, moderate weight lifting and resistance exercise in my gym, sex)

Though I quit the steroids and protein powders years ago after my serious body building days, I still frequently eat a whole chicken for dinner with veggies followed by french vanilla/hot fudge swirl dessert. I don’t particularly like cakes, pies, donuts, etc., and I never eat salty tasting foods including any kind of chip or snack and no hot and spicy foods.

My wife HATES watching me eat. She is soooooo jealous.

51℉ in Friday Harbor Big Rain coming… dry so far, but PRINCESS is all wet… Glad it wasn’t an elimination leg… I like those guys. Glad the Globetrotters won too. And, I would love to slap Dan myself… what a jerk… well, maybe he’s just emotional…don’t want to be accused of being insensitive… but, AGGIE, there was nothing cute about Dan crying. Too bad his brother isn’t running the race with someone else… he is a cool dude. Those were some hard physical challenges back-to-back. And what a wuss Cheyne is… you could tell that he knew the hay was going to be a bitch, by watching what Sam was going through, and let Meg do it. That was cool when Meg faked him out at the end. The hay was all a matter of luck and persistence.

FP2… that was a funny story about your computer, and when it comes to buying presents, get them what you want them to have. And JT, nice to see a face in the box… SNAKE needs to show a couple of our girls how to use ‘Gravatars’.

Well, it seems like they are trying to paint The Great One with a target on his back… hopefully The Galus will find one of their own to vote off… Russell needs to keep the Foa’s united and bring in The Mullet into the fold. But, Jaison seems to be able to command some respect with his ideas, which are pretty good. Would love to see a Laura/Great One alliance get rolling. It would appear we will have a final 3 this time.

So FP2… what did you get at the Mall?

That look Cheyne gave Meg prior to the hay roll is the same look my wife gives me every time the cars need washing, the grass needs cutting, the dishes need washing (rinsed and placed in dishwasher), trip to the grocery store, mail to post office, and cleaning anything – her ring around the tub tub – in particular.

On the other hand, she gives me her “have we left yet” look when Dillards is even mentioned in conversation.

I remember a buddy of mine who figured that if he married a foreign woman of modest means who had worked hard throughout her youth that he would get some respect. As it turned out, though, the other ladies in his neighborhood had Hilda (from Bavaria) totally “Americanized” in no time at all.

Don’t like Russell H. (greatest Survivor ever) being called the Gnome. Let’s save that for The Amazing Race. I do hope the Farmers can survive their private roadblock next week. Actually, I like all the teams and would be happy with any of them winning. My order of preference would be: Globetrotters, Farmers, Ken & Barbie, Brothers and Miss America & Spouse. I think the final challenge will be a doozie.

Did anyone see Shan’s interview when she talked about her hairstyle? She said she has always had a Mullet and always will…that it is her identification. Will be interesting to see if she has it at the reunion show.

As for SS, my guess is Russell will probably go this week as many of you have stated. He just keeps burning bridges. We’ll see how Shambo does. It should be interesting.

Foggy this morning but it’s now 65 and sunny in Dana Point, CA. Walked my pup 2 miles this morning. No way do I burn 3200 calories sleeping. Just for that PK, you should be slapped. Well you might like that though. I’ll think of something. :lol:
