That info should go in the "Spoiler" thread.

Please please please do NOT post who is missing.

Y2k, thanks for not posting who.

I do not want to know.

I do not want to avoid this thread until after the show's finale.

But I appreciate the heads up so I know not to watch the commercials.

This is one of my favorite seasons! It grew slowly, and at times seemed a bit boring compared to some of the past seasons. Now, I LOVE the show this season. The people seem nicer for the most part. (not Coach or Tyson especially with their treatment of Sierra. Debbie overall maybe treated her ok. I do really hate that they made her sleep outside when Brendan was voted out.)

On other seasons, I think there would be no tolerance of Coach at all.

i have a question going back to the show that had the families there. I saw that Eddie George is married to Taj, but that reunion was separate. I think it would have made everyone want to vote Taj off since she may have money that they don't--but why was her reunion separate? Thanks!

Shelb, Jeff gave Taj the option of taking Eddie back to camp and keeping the other family members from the rest of the tribe, or of letting the other family members go to camp with the others and going to Exile Island alone with Eddie. Since they all gave her their money to have the reunion, she let the others see their family members at camp and got to see Eddie alone at Ei.

Oh, I forgot this, too. . .

The others know that Taj's husband is Eddie George. She revealed that early in the game.

Shelb - in order for all the other survivors to have their loved ones at camp, Taj had to agree to go to exile island to be with Eddie.

Wasn't it separate because she chose to go to exile

It was separate, but I think the others could at least hear her video message since they were all crying while she was viewing it and she had revealed earlier in the season who she was married to.

I can't wait until Sunday's reunion show. I'm so curious if Coach will still be full of hot air or if, now that we've all seen the real Coach, he'll have come down off his high horse.

I suspect when you are delusional, it doesn't come and go like pollen allergies. Speaking of yourself in the third person can't indicate good mental health to me -

LOL! Good point Titan! I actually FF through most of anything that had to do with Coach last night (so the show went really fast for me considering it was all about him). So, I missed his "Third-Person Speech."

I having read the spoilers .. only watched from the end of the immunity challenge (what a wimp!) to the ousting ... He'll always have some sort of excuse! I would have loved it to be a tie (I know wouldn't have been able to happen) .. between him and any of the ladies .. and they have to do a fire build ... and have his adventurous self booted that way...

I loved how the jury was perfectly bored through everything he said and pretending to fall asleep!

I'm not sure if this should go here or not. Mods remove this if it's not supposed to be here.
----------
I was shocked and saddened to read this but it sounds like he has a fantastic attitude to fight this battle.
I wish him all the luck in the world. My heart goes out to him.

Let's try again as the first one didn't go through. Crossing fingers that this one does.

Well that is not funny. I've c/p the article below.

Survivor's Ethan Zohn Has Cancer


Ethan Zohn, the curly-haired soccer player who battled the elements and outwitted opponents to win Survivor: Africa, is facing his toughest adversary yet: cancer.

On April 30, Zohn was diagnosed with stage two Hodgkin's disease. The diagnosis came after months of unexplained itching and night sweats, originally thought to be a skin condition. Doctors discovered a swollen lymph node under his left clavicle, and a CT scan revealed a mass on the left side of his chest. Then, just last week, Zohn learned he is suffering from a rare form the disease called CD20-positive Hodgkin's Lymphoma, for which he began chemotherapy last Friday.

"This is the ultimate game of Survivor," Zohn, 35, tells PEOPLE exclusively, "and there's really only one outcome, and that's to win. There's no other option."

Hodgkin's disease is a cancer of the body's lymphatic system with survival rates reaching as high as 90 percent. Zohn was told that the CD20 diagnosis, which affects around five percent of all Hodgkin's patients, has a similar cure rate, but is treated with an altered, more aggressive, three-month chemotherapy regimen. "They're going right after this," he says.

The chemo is expected to knock the always active and otherwise fit Zohn mostly out of commission for a few months, with nausea and weakness among its side effects. And he's expected to lose his famous mop of hair within two weeks.

Zohn's longtime girlfriend, Survivor: The Amazon winner Jenna Morasca, 27, is vowing to be at his side throughout the process. "I will fight with every fabric of my being to get him through this," Morasca tells PEOPLE.

Educating, Inspiring Others
Both Zohn and Morasca lost parents to cancer. Zohn's father died of colon cancer when Ethan was 14. Morasca's mother died in 2003, after a 12-year battle with breast cancer. "Our only point of reference with this situation is death," says Morasca.

Upon hearing the diagnosis, says Zohn, "My life flashed before my eyes." But in the roller coaster of emotions that followed, Zohn came to a conclusion: He wants to use his battle with cancer as way to educate and inspire others.

"This is happening for a reason," he tells PEOPLE. "You have to get spiritual about this [stuff]. I know I want to help people and inspire people. That's my purpose in life. So I need to use this as a platform."

Zohn, who has worked to raise money and awareness for AIDS relief in Africa through his Grassroot Soccer charity ever since winning Survivor's $1-million prize in 2002, had his first chemo treatment in Manhattan last Friday. Doctors inserted a small, octagonal port in his chest through which the chemo will be administered "like a fast-filling station" every two weeks. "It looks like I have a third nipple right now," says Zohn. "You can call me trip-nip!"

He'll face the loss of his hair with the same bravado. "My hair is my identity," he admits. But rather than find "long, disgusting Ethan Zohn hair all over my house," he's decided to shave it off in the next few days: "I'll get a mohawk or something fun that I've always wanted to do."

That's just fine with Morasca. "I so love the bad-boy look," she says. "I'd have him get a tattoo and a nose piercing, too, but he's not into it."

Bad-boy looks or not, Zohn says he feels well-prepared for the long fight ahead. "I've got good family and friends, and I'll roll with the punches as it comes to me. That's how I work in life. I'll take it on like a real game of Survivor," he says, adding: "I'm not getting voted out of this one."
