Special Agent is a very broad term. It applies to anyone working for a Federal Government agency who has the people to arrest those who are in violation of his agencies area of investigation or concern. A food inspector may be a federal agent. Like the guy who comes around looking for roaches in the local diner's kitchen. I had an Indian friend who could carry the title and be armed because he was a liaison for his tribe and the US government. Anyone who is employed in federal intelligence is a Secret Agent. In Philips case I believe he sat behind a 'puter doing employee background check. That would make him a "secret" agent but in a broad use of the term. LOL Phillip is using the term and making waves with it because most people envision James Bond when they hear the term. LOL

I did. Coach cracks me up. He kept asking Mikayla to step out of the challenge because she wasn't hitting anything. Well, neither was he! lol Then he got even more angry because she refused to do as she was told. And he had a not very flattering reason for keeping Edna on. "She will do as she is told." Even suggesting that she would wipe someones behind if he told her to. sheesh! If they refuse to vote out coach, I don't know why they don't get rid of Branden, and I don't know why they didn't get rid of Edna. she has never played in a competition other than the first one? really? I can't believe that the cowboy didn't vote for Edna. But when the little strange man (Brandon) started talking about personal honor, and the camera cut to Mr. Cowboy's face, I just KNEW he was going to vote with coach. Geez. Redemption island, the blonde lady is kind of funny. Giving her tribe the finger. LOL

And just in case you are unable to watch or record it I found this site... I forgot that it was on last week, invited friends over for supper and missed it. Fortunately I'd bookmarked this site :) Here is a link that might be useful: Watch Survivor episodes

I am watching a program on PBS about an archaeologist's search for the Hanging Gardens of Babylon...which turned out not to be in Babylon, but in Niniva. This is the 3rd time I've seen it....so not really paying attention. Before that was Nova and it was about trying to build a smaller replica of the Ark.
