Thanks Party Music. Nana, I would send you my stems but I like them too. Not quite ready to give them up! I didn't see any of these this year while shopping. Sometimes Ross and TJ Maxx carries the same ones for a few years. Isn't it about time for you to set another ts? I found 3 of the big stone napkin rings. Was it you who used on one of your tables? I'll have to figure out how to use them on one of mine. Jeanne, glad you liked the napkins with the plates too. I wasn't sure if I would go green, red or white until I opened the drawer with these and Bingo. I wanted to start decorating my hutch but just didn't have the get up and go tonight. So instead I've sat here and consumed a whole bag of sunflower nuts while posting and texting.Darn Thanks for the comments. I may get Friday off so who knows what I'll come up with if I get 3 days off in a row. I'm hoping to play with DGD at least one day. Punk

I liked the end Dave spoke it well. It was definitely a well played game by Rob. The $100K Well........Jeff "Ambers' going shopping." Rob "~~~Oh yeah." LOL I sure would if I were in her place. Matt probably could have used it but his constant whinge proselytizing was not playing the game it was just whining about his lot and giving God all the responsibility to take care of him. Someone ought to tell him God helps those who help themselves. Love his hair cut. He is a handsome guy. Many of the guys were handsome or cute to some degree even Ralph 'cleaned up' had sparkling eyes and a boyish grin under that umm? facial hair. Russel and Phillip just looked icky/creepy/sneaky to me. Natalie She got her staying in the game so long money and had to do absolutely squat but use ROB to keep her there since she wasn't playing she wasn't a threat. I loved that "I used my strength of Social Skills." comment she made. Social skills to use people doesn't get you winning votes and the judges saw through her so well. Julie did drop the hammer a little hard. The kid was only doing what she knows to be in the game. Phillip????? He caught on he was only left because Rob knew no one would vote for him. He got his staying in the game so long money and I think that is the biggest reason he went along with Rob. He knew he would never win no matter how he played the game. His personality was awful even in the reunion show. Will Phillip ever answer a question without babbling nonsense? Will he ever shut up period? OMG burning those awful undies I wanted to gag. Had I been there I would have been WAY UP WIND! I don't think I have ever had the 'ewww my skin is trying to crawl away from that guy' feeling from a person on TV before. I'm still ewww when I think of him! The Former Federal Agent crap was a dominant issue in the reunion too. Proof or not still doesn't mean he is sane or in any way capable of being a stable dependable friend/person or fedderal agent. The supposed proof Begs the Question "WHY "Former" Federal Agent?" Usually death is responsible for folk leaving a federal agency's employment. A lot of benefits to keep them working until old age. Unless they are kicked out for being WACKO or they retire by age or request (usualy infractions of rules and regs constantly over and over will cause a request for leaving or firing). We still don't know what branch of the Federal Government besides FBI CIA AND other Security agencies USPS workers are Federal agents too! They have badges and take training. LOL Well fall is only a few months away. Enjoy what the summer season has to offer. LIL

It seems like this show seem to fill up so much time with filler more and more each season, Just get to the dang dancing! Another gripe I have is the choice of music they sometimes pick for dances. I can't think of one example this early, but when it is a Latin style dance, play Latin style and beat music. One season they even had people trying to dance to (C)rap. I thought Bristol looked clumsy and awkward last night, although I agree with Lily 316, she will probably be kept in by her mothers fans, I do think if the "stars" were kept around or sent home strictly for their abilities, she would be sent home tonight, but I don't expect it...yet.

Thanks, both. But I also don't mind that Trancegemini expressed her/his disappointment. It was said politely, and admitted responsibility for opening the thread. This is only my second round of Survivor threads here (barring a possibly fly by, years ago), however, so I wanted to make sure what the rules were. I'm glad that's been aired, and hope Trancegemini comes back after watching the episode. There was the third installment of a popular movie series that everybody was waiting for, before "spoilers" was even a common word. I walked out of rooms not to hear, and avoided all the press and hype, and went to see it the first weekend. I thought it was great! Most of the reviews said it was middling, and most of the people thought it was weak. Spoilerproofing it was definitely the way to go. I didn't know what was going to happen, so the plotting of the chase scene was exciting, for instance. It was all new to me, so the story held together much better, and I could enjoy the visuals so much more. I have sympathy for not wanting spoilers. :) SO, what did you all think of the game last night? What do you think of them giving so much good stuff to two tribes, and marooning the third one? That's Survivor, but is it fair? Are they allowed to raid each others' camps? They did way early on and I haven't seen it since, so I'm guessing (but don't know the backstories like Sushipup) that it's against the rules. I get it that they're already tired, but why didn't they make a decent camp? Surely they must know that fed, watered, and dry are the most important things for winning challenges? Keeping the rain off is vital! What do you think about repeating classic challenges? I wonder if down the road it's going to be a test of not who can come up with a winning strategy on exhaustion and hunger, but who can remember one. :)
