Happy, I know she meant Jonathan when she was talking about being a liar. That was my point. And I understand if she thinks Yao is a threat. But for pete's sake, tell him that. Don't take the low road. As far as Cirie winning against Amanda and Parvati, well, she'd have to actually get past their alliance. If those four make it to the end (Ozzie, Amanda, Parvati, James) there is no way any of 'em will take her. And she doesn't stand much of a chance of winning immunity (she didn't really win much during her season, did she?). Oddly enuf, I kinda liked her before. But I think she's gotten mean and I don't like that mean streak. I could've understood the UTR act again, but not this. Yao-Man went out as always, a class act. Cirie could learn something.

OT: As someone who has issues with their own weight. I was disappointed Cirie had apparently put her weight on and perhaps a few more. I had hoped she was going to be able to keep it off. Well no sense in myself applying for survivor is I'll just put it back on. lol Shout out to Yao-Man he seems like a terrific person. Thought Kathy was very funny with Ami on the island looking for the II. I wish they would of shown the 2 girls getting thru the stormy night. I have a question. Do the favs have a cave to sleep in and the fans do not? Seems to me if one side has a cave they both should have access to one. Or do the fans just not realize there is one? Just trying to figure it all out. Did you see Amanda get flipped during the comp? At first I thought wth. Then I figured if you're going to jump on someone. You just might get flipped.

As was pointed out on Reality Remix, Cirie knew just how popular Yau-Man is with fans, so if Yau-Man was around for the merge, he'd have allies on the Fan team. There are others on the Fav team who are good at challenges, but you have to think for now and think ahead and in the past people have slipped through and the merge comes up, or a trade or whatever, so you cannot count on the composition of a tribe. Yau-Man also did well finding his immunity idol, so Cirie wanted to eliminate that possibility as well. I'm not personally happy that he is gone, but she isn't playing to please the viewers. She wasn't in a solid final two alliance with anyone, but was the fifth wheel, and she chose which four to go with. Personally, from an irritation point of view, I'd have been fine with Parvati going. I suspect that not a few of the favs were secretly happy to have Yau-Man go and have much of the heat and blame placed on Cirie.

yau-man was cirie's biggest threat. they play the same social game. ii or not. she was right to target him and get the target off eliza. they were not able to work their social game on each other. yau-man may have made a mistake by not trying harder to reach out to cirie earlier with a better social game but i think he did not see her as the threat he should have. what i did not see was two alliances of 4 each trying to get cirie to vote with them. what i saw was individuals trying to work with cirie. i don't think this was about cirie choosing between the two alliances. this was about cirie being a catalyst for creating new alliances or sub alliances. the current alliance situation was not working in cirie's favor. she is the 5th wheel. it was to her advantage to shake them up and now was just a good time as any. eliza realizes her name is being tossed around. she works with cirie to point the talk to YM. eliza works with cirie because she realizes cirie and jon are not on the same page. i personally think it's because jon was blatenly underestimating cirie and that made her angry. eliza realizes the girls on the other alliance are going to be able to talk to cirie better than jon. cirie gets amanda and pav on the same page. she now has 4 votes. whether or not amanda and pav are really serious about an alliance with cirie the did "make one" with her. so we might now have an alliance of e/c/amanda/p with and opportunity for ami to join. also cirie is friends with kathy and if there is a mix or merge that might work in her favor with this new alliance. cirie never worked with james or ozzy. she just trusted that the girls would be able to get them on the same page. she has no alliance with james and ozzy. ami is doing a good job of positioning herself as the new swing vote now that her alliance had fell apart. even if cirie gets voted out next (which i doubt will happen). she should not regret this move. it made for great tv. and it debunked the myth that she was a "coattailer".

ETA: I forgot why I came here ! I wanted to let you all know that, I won't be around at show time, 8pm EST. Hopefully some one will keeped you guys in the know! Are we allowed to chat about what we learn from Yau-Man's interview which might shade some light to the situation? They are all over the net.... Cirie said she has her reasons on her Myspace. "Others" are saying that wasn't the case. Yau-Man said he did try & try again to get the "misunderstanding" fixed, all the way till just before TC. >>> A snip of it was shown I believe in the CBS Morning show as Yau-Man's secret scene. Ozzy did more than pleading for Yau-Man to his allies.... Not knowing if those are considered spoilers, I think I generized all circunstances?? Isn't this the same mantality we complained about the Gretchen show of Big Brother? All these "insiders"(secret scenes, little to are on the CBS site. They could usually be found on Youtube also if you have trouble w/CBS site like I used to have. Yau-Man or any other interview after the boot, could be found on reality tv, talk, dish... just google for it. Have fun!

Do we know where Raen is these days? Even though I'm on Central time, I know how much our West Coasties love to be spoiled.

Mikey B was too aggressive(spell?). The fans had no idea that a switch up was coming so it was a real gamble to get rid of him - good move though. I really wish Yau was still around!
