I've been mostly lurking here this season as I'm working on my thesis, but I wanted to post a couple of things. . . . ** First, I was not a fan of Russell at the beginning. Well, put me on the Russell Love Train now. I may not particularly like him, but I have to say his game play is great. I don't think that the producers are giving him any advantage over others. They would have serious legal problems if they did that, as someone mentioned earlier. ** Am I the only one who cannot stand Dave Ball? Actually, my husband likes him even less than I do. The look on his face at tribal when something happens that he doesn't expect is priceless. "What? What?" "Huh?" Good grief. I can't believe that Jeff said he's smart. And he's a fitness instructor? Gosh. ** I don't particularly feel as though they've manipulated us this season more than they always do. I think of all of the hours and hours of tape they have used to put together a one-hour show. The majority of it has to be boring as anything, so they're going to pick the controversial stuff to show because that's what gets viewers. Ok. . .So, I'm rooting for Mick and Russell. (Someone shoot me.)

Vegas, I'm not a fan of Dave Ball either. I won't miss him one bit when he leaves.

me either and I hate that JP always says his whole name! someone asked JP about it on his blog. fyi JP also addressed this being fixed for russ, that they told him where the idols were and he said like most of us thought, big legal issues and if they did eventually someone would tell on them. so in a word NO they dont cheat

I saw the Ponderosa clips today, and Laura was being Ms. Sweetness and Light! I can't believe she was not pi$$ed to the max to have her royal reign ended! Is there another side of her shown anywhere?

Actually, I think "Ms. Sweetness and Light" Laura is having to dance a bit at Ponderosa. She royally screwed her own teammate Eric (supposedly people from their exit interviews said that Laura was running the team, not Good Russell the Chief before he was medivaced). And I think Laura admitted at the table that the Eric boot was what started the whole domino effect, where a team of 8 is being whittled down by a team of 4.

If my memory is working correctly today, Russell found the idol under the bridge while Laura and her group were still on the reward where they got the clue. By the time they got back to camp to be able to search for it, it was already gone.

He did find the second II while others were gone, yes. But it the clip posted above he is sitting on that same bridge talking to the camera about how he just found his third II. They filmed him on that same bridge after he found the third. But as someone mentioned, who knows when they filmed that particular clip. Probably after things had calmed down and no one was chasing him any longer.

Cathie, you're right. If Laura was looking at the bridge before the reward challenge, the HII probably wasn't hidden yet. (I'm guessing they hide it during the reward challenge while everyone is away from camp.) She obviously wouldn't have found the one Eric left with (which wasn't under the bridge when he found it), and Russell found the one under the bridge while she was enjoying the reward. I don't know why she thinks it's suspicious.
