"curse of the idol" my butt

So, last week, OzzyBonnie has the idol and doesn't play it because she is good in the water but not much else. This week, JasonStephen gets the idol and doesn't play it because he's STUPID. Yes, STUPID. The network is billing it as "The Curse of the Idol." Has a nice ring to it but, like most things Survivory, it is contrived and sponsored by Ford. These idiots don't get voted off because of a 'curse.' They get voted off because they are a bigger threat and too GREEDY to play the idol. I wonder how much it would fetch on ebay.

For reward, they had a Survivor auction. ErikJohn bought a covered dish that turned out to be a hotdog and fries. The girls all bought a chocolate cake and had on minute to eat it. It looked like a Jenny Craig version of mud wrestling.

For immunity they had to break tiles and assemble a puzzle. ErikJohn, the ice cream scooper, won. Turns out it's his birthday too.
For once, the girls have figured out that they have the power to take control of the game. They plan on going all girls to the end. I am ok with this. ParvartiKathleen has made everyone mad so if she makes it through an episode, I predict she will go to final two. JamesJerome had a great idea but AmandaPatti wouldn't go for it. He wanted her and himself to vote Parvarti and then tell Jason who would have played the idol thereby giving most votes to Parvarti. He still should have gone to Jason and it would have worked. Dummy. But, nooooo, he runs around talking about, "eating the apple. Folks always got to eat dat apple." He should have been talking about idols and votes instead of running around throwing out metaphors like some kind of grave digging possessed English teacher.

JasonSteve is out. HA! Your reign of fantasy land dominance is over. And, what do you know, it ended as soon as you started bragging about how well you've done. Murphy just smacked you down, Boy!

Remember, take Survivor to work with you: Pick da apple. EAT da apple. And throw the core at your enemy.

Dumbest Survivor ever

Last night was a decent episode. Plus, I was conscious for the WHOLE thing. Can you believe that?! After they got rid of boogedy eyed ElizaBrandon, things are looking up. BTW, its a sad thing when a person's eye sockets are bigger than their cup size.

For reward, they did a schoolyard pick for teams, swam under, over, around, through, between, and other adjectives to a puzzle. They had to memorize the puzzle, swim back and recreate it. JasonSteve chose OzzyBonnie, of course. From then on, it was decided. So, for reward, they got to all go to an airconditioned library with a beautiful view and watch an ultra boring powerpoint. NO, WAIT, that was my "reward". For their reward, JasonSteve, OzzyBonnie, ErikJohn, and super hot, leopard print bikini KathleenPerverti all went to a little vilage and got stoned. As usual, EricJohn overdid it and puked outside the hut. When they got back and told the others, OzzyBonnie sounded a little too cocky and some got irritated.

For Immunity, they had to stand on the end of a log and hold their hand up in the air that was attached to a dumping bucket. I'm sure ospi will adopt this policy in the near future. The literature should read something like, "All students, regardless of ability, will raise their hands and at least look like they have a clue. Should they not be able to raise their hand, we will hire a person and pay them thirty thousand dollars a year to raise their hand for them." Speaking of NCLB, I am starting a campaign: OPLB (one president left behind).

AAAnnyyway, along the way, Probst offered several goodies for people to quit. Moron EricJohn gave up for a half a bowl of gummy worms. Toward the end, it was down to PervertiKathleen and JasonSteve. Probst offered up a platter of goodies to be shared by the tribe. JasonSteve, got everyone's word that they wouldn't vote him and then quit so they could get the food. What...a...dumbass. The only thing less valuable than the word of a Survivor contestant is the word of a used car salesman. I thought for sure he'd sealed his fate. JamesJerome stated, "I tot I wuz da dumbest Survivor ever. Huh, huh." I don't understand why they didn't tell PervertiKathleen to quit. It was never even mentioned.

Back at camp, they all planned on voting out JamesSteven, or so they thought. The tides turned and OzzyBonnie felt confident not to use the idol. She was voted out. I told her at the draft that Ozzy would have a big target on him and not make the final four because no one wants to go up against him. Survivor is not Darwinian; the fittest don't survive. It's more Parasitic; the weak ride along with their strong hosts until it's time to feed on them one last time. (In case you didn't notice, this is a FREKIN gem of knowledge you just read).

Hasta luego OzzyBonnie. Better luck next time.

Remember, take Survivor to work with you: Obviously, I do.

Update/catch up

It's been awhile since I made time to sit around and bash my colleages and super big, ultra clear, flat screen with no glare box of all that is good in the world (t.v.). So, it goes a little like this:

In episode 5, dumbass JoelKara decided to take control of the game early thereby securing a ride home. What a moron. Even I can hold my tongue longer than that. It doesn't take a female to see that far into the future, Joel. Go home and lick your biceps, ya big dumb galute. However, it was fun to see ChetPam getting tossed around the obstacle course like an orca playing with a dead seal. SO, you get no points for brains but some for style.

In episode 6, sissy cheerleader coach JonathanKathyB got evacuated for medical reasons. He had an infection in his leg. C'mon people. This is for MONEY. I dare say that if you lost a leg at work, the State wouldn't give you a million bucks. Geez. Where do these people get their priorities?! ChetPam gets voted FINALLY. So the game loses two players in one episode. They also miss a golden opportunity to get rid of OzzyBonnie.

Episode 7 also saw two people leave. I'll bet the producers were looking for stand ins and body doubles by this point. I'm sure they were wondering how they would sell Chevys with no people watching. I'm sure Chevy is wondering how they will sell Chevys too. Oh, never mind. Chevy has gone GREEN, which means that as they fall apart going down the road, we can recycle the pieces. Annywaaay, KathleenMarcusEverharm is a WHIMP. That big sissy quit and wanted to go home. He was like, "Man, this is a lot of work. It's not like teaching p.e. where I just throw a ball out and that is my whole lesson plan. Here, I have to think and stuff."
At tribal, TracyBobA gets voted out. Usually, I am ok with Bob leaving but, after seeing TracyBob in a bikini, I was kind of hoping she'd stay. I am still hopefull for a playmates vs. pornstar survivor on Cinemax.

In episode 8, it was looking like yours truly, ErikJohn the ice cream scooper was going home. And, really, who needs money more than an ice cream scooper? Although, with my super insightful programming ideas for Cinemax, I suppose I have a future there.
In this episode, the claws really came out. ErikJohn figured he had nothing to lose so he told everything about everyone he knew. Later on, ColetteAmi came up to him and said, "Thank you for telling everything. It really strengthened my position with the others." NOT. She's a gonner. The tribe has spoken and all that crap.

Last night, they put the remaining monkeys together. They had a big feast and called the game off for the day and everyone was happy and little lobsters danced in the surf and the birds sang on the shoulders of the contestants. KathleenParvarti and AmandaPatti frolicked in the water where Parvarti filled her in on all her lies and such. AmandaPatti was not happy. She was like, "This is not what I want at all. Are ALL Junior High teachers are stupid, or what?!"

For Immunity, they had to stay in cages while the tide came in and slowly drowned them. JasonSteve outlasted even the fish, OzzyBonnie who was not happy at all. With that, JasonSteve gave his fake immunity idol that Ozzy planted, to ElizaBrandon. Eliza looked at it in disgust and said, "It's a stick."
JasonSteve, with stars in his eyes said, "I know. It's the idol."
"NO, it's not."
Nodding frantically but slowing with the realization, JasonSteve lamented, "It's not?"

At tribal, ElizaBrandon played it anyway. Probst went into the rules of the idol and all and then stated that it was not the idol and tossed into the propane firepit. With that, ElizaBrandon went home.

Ozzfest

Stupid Ozzybonnie did it again. She dominated in the water retrieving coconuts then gets sent to Exile Island where she finds the immunity idol. The Oz had this to say, "I'm a wiz when in the wata which is why I win. Hee Hee. Now shut up while I hand out these tissues."

For reward which Ozonnie dominated in, they had to retrieve coconuts, put them in a basket, swim the basket to shore and make a word out of them. HOLY CRAP, the fans sucked (n0t the good kind either). They were awful. They were like eighth graders trying to slow dance: stiff legged and more side to side than forward. Oh, and get this. The favs get all ten coconuts back and set them out with the letters showing that are supposed to make one word. Big 'ol Jamesjerome says, "Cood it be 'triumphant?"' I don't know if the guy was channeling Pat Sajak or what but it was amazing! Faves win.

For Immunity, they had to unshackle themselves but still be connected by long rods that had a pivot point and maneuver their way through a course. Faves win again. Erikjohn the ice cream scooper couldn't undo his lock and cost them a lot of time. What a moron. Probably doesn't know how to work a chair either: too many moving parts.

Fans had another chance to get rid of Chetpam- the -lame and didn't. When it came down to it, Joelkara is too neurotic to keep Mikeymandi around. SO, the moron orchestrated her demise. Mandimikey goes home.

Remember, take Survivor to work with you: Buy a Bluetooth so that people won't know you talk to yourself. Wear the same outfit for a whole week and see if anyone notices. Repeat the last word anyone says to you as a question and see how long the conversation lasts.

Thanks Kathleen

Subject: Survivor for educators
Next Season on Survivor
Have you heard about the next planned "Survivor" show?Three businessmen and three businesswomen will be dropped in an elementary school classroom for 1 school year. Each business person will be provided with a copy of his/her school district's curriculum, and a class of 28 - 32 students. Each class will have a minimum of five learning-disabled children, three with A.D.D., one gifted child, and two who speak limited English. Three students will be labeled with severe behavior problems.

Each business person must complete lesson plans at least 3 days in advance, with annotations for curriculum objectives and modify, organize, or create their materials accordingly. They will be required to teach students, handle misconduct, implement technology, document attendance, write referrals, correct homework, make bulletin boards, compute grades, complete report cards, document benchmarks, communicate with parents, and arrange parent conferences.

They must also stand in their doorway between class changes to monitor the hallways. In addition, they will complete fire drills, tornado drills, and [Code Red] drills for shooting attacks each month. They must attend workshops, faculty meetings,and attend curriculum development meetings. They must also tutor students who are behind and strive to get their 2 non-English speaking children proficient enough t o take the Terra Nova, Diagnostics and FCAT tests.

If they are sick or having a bad day they must not let it show. Each day they must incorporate reading, writing, math, science, and social studies into the program. They must maintain discipline and provide an educationally stimulating environment to motivate students at all times. If all students do not wish to cooperate, work, or learn, the teacher will be held responsible.

The business people will only have access to the public golf course on the weekends, but with their new salary, they may not be able to afford it. There will be no access to vendors who want to take them out to lunch, and lunch will be limited to thirty minutes, which is not counted as part of their work day. The business people will be permitted to use a student restroom, as long as another survival candidate can supervise their class. If the copier is operable, they may make copies of necessary materials before, or after, school. However, they cannot surpass their monthly limit of copies. The business people must continually advance their education, at their expense, and on their own time.

The winner of this Season of Survivor will be allowed to return to their job. Pass this to your friends who think teaching is easy, and to the ones who know it's hard!

Update 3

Just a bunch of sorry monkeys this week. People sitting around getting wetter and wetter (not the good kind). That moron Joelkaren looked like a hairless Shar pei http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/sharpei.htm . Sitting in the canoe all pruned up and sad like someone peed in his Cheerios.

For reward, they played the equivalent of a football game where there were only six balls and a team had to get five into its own endzone. This was pretty brutal with a lot of contact. Big ol' Jamesjerome and Joelkara kind of dominated. In the end, the Favorites won.

For immunity, they had to hold their own coconut sack while the opposite team threw in more coconuts until the sack got so heavy that one team let go. I, myself, have had this problem and know the burdens of a huge coconut sack. It doesn't matter how sturdy the rope is one uses, it's a tough job hauling and holding up a sack if such weight. Fans won.

At Tribal, Ciriecorrina and Jonathankathy b got into it. The tribe is obviously divided and now the couples have the numbers. Ciriecorrina is an idiot. She didn't go with the other alliance because she didn't feel that she was a part of it. HELLOOO Cirie, you aren't in a relationship either that we are seeing on camera. The votes came out and YaumanShannon s. goes home.

Remember, take Survivor to work with you: Keep in mind that 'narrowing the achievement gap' means retarding the growth of the normal kids. Graphs show that free and reduced lunch makes kids dumber. And, when you're done in the bathroom, don't forget to spray that air freshener so that the bathroom smells like orange poo.

Episode 2

Not too exciting this time.
You'll have to excuse the blandness of the following; all of my creative "genious" was sucked out of me at our lid day. It used to be that a "lid" was a good thing. Life has a cruel sense of irony.

Tracybob, Chetpam, and Kathymark are on the outside of a 7-3 alliance. They appear to be screwed. In true whiney Kathymarky fashion, Kathymark remarked, "It's just like high school all over again. We're all seperated and no one likes me. And I have unexplained feelings for the same gender. PLUS, now I'm ugly AND old."

Ozzybonnie and Amandapatti are going at it like a couple of rabbits! They'll never keep up with Pervertikathleen and her horse, however. BTW, Perverti has a pretty sexy tramp stamp.

Both teams are really roughing it. They have to like dive down like ten feet to come up with muscles to eat the size of their heads. I mean, really, what could be worse than straight protein when that's what they need the most. The Favorites probably lost the last challenge (besides it being written into the script) because they were too full and lethargic.

For Immunity/reward this time, they had to run across some lilly pad blocks on water, climb a tower, jump off and break a tile which released a key, dive down and get it, then swim back with it. Of course, Ozbonnie was fast and freakishly "Waterworld" good and obtained an early lead. Then it got to Chetpam. SUCKY. Not the good kind of sucky either. Pathetically, Chetpam jumped in the water looking for the key then wouldn't go down for it. Go figure, not enough practice? I think not. Chetpam lost the reward for the fan tribe. Moron.

After the reward, both teams had to choose someone to go to Exile island: Ciriecorina and Kathymarky had to go. The two of them teamed up and went back and forth like four times finding clues and whatnot. However, they never found the idol. Joelkara has some serious issues with Mikeymandi. She did not like her orchestrating who's out. So, Joelkara stepped up and totally put a target on her tattood, Conan butt and got Mikeymandi's girlfriend, Marytracy, voted out. CRAP!
CRAP! again. I was liking the way Marytracy filled up my screen. I can think of three good reasons why she shouldn't be voted out and at least one of them is real.

Remeber, take Survivor to work with you: Only tell people what they want to hear because that's all they want to hear anyway. Do not hand co-workers dollars for showing skin. And, for the love of all that's sacred, DON'T WASH MY COFFEE CUP.
