Rollerboy | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 09:30 am  Irritating, superior, cocky attitude. Keith isn't anywhere near the top 10% if those are the criteria. As for sense of style, what is Outback Chic? Maybe a toque wasn't practical. |
Lancecrossfire | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 09:42 am  Bat, so far his bandana is his only poor sense of style, and that is nothing compared to the rest of his tribe. He stands head and shoulders above the rest of them. As far as my defense, I have not shown a strong one yet intentionally--he has not needed it. Superior and cocky attitude--when you're that good, you are allowed--no NEED to have such an attitude. Adven, just 40? No need for you to talk about it! We will do that for you! More on that later though, after you've taken your afternoon nap. I look forward to your medium sized posts you mentioned above. More importantly is your little Amber and Bat's Alicia. I'm thinking they are both going down soon---and will be booted from the game as well! Bat, I am not afraid of your two 5 year olds and your bathroom humor. I had 3 boys, with the youngest being 23 know. I know of bathroom humor plus much more! And keep you hands off my check book! |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 09:58 am  Ah, but my sons are 22 and 25, the 5 year olds are just giving me a refresher course. The proper way to wear the bandana is any place other than Howdy Doody style. Most keep it on their wrist or around their head. Now if Alicia should choose to do the Doody deal she will look terrific. Colby is allowed also, as he is from Texas. Chefs and Michiganders may not. That is in the rule book. Alicia will make the final 3. Amber will make the merge. Keith will bite the dust (cowboy term on account of his bandana) after before the merge. Tina, Jeff and Rodger are next out. Rollerboy...the dictionary says toque is a lake trout. You have another meaning? That would be kinda cute around his neck though. Keep the bugs off the others at any rate. |
Digilady | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 11:43 am  I'm with ya on Jeff, HRH. Altho scuttlebut has it as "Tina". Man, I can't place exactly which one Tina is. Which means either I can't concentrate (Possible, I'm a bit busy) or she has stayed low-key enough not to be visible. hmmmmmmmmmm! |
Moondance | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 01:11 pm  HaPpY BiRtHdAy Adven!!! I have been calling you that from the begining! Go Amber!!! This former cheerleader thinks that cheerleader is great! |
Adven | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 02:03 pm  Thanks, Moon, but I'm finding the start of a new decade depressing. Yesterday I was a relatively vital, fit person and today I can feel Mother Nature sucking the life force out of me with her vacuum. I have this urge to shuffle over to the park and feed pigeons. I caught myself putting turbo-fibre in my porridge this morning and I've never eaten porridge in my life. I'm getting more and more cantankerous by the minute and for the first time ever, I found myself wondering what's wrong with these crazy kids today while I ate my prunes. Then I...just a sec.... Gotta go. My home health care worker's here. |
Wink | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 03:30 pm  Perhaps it would be more fitting now that you've reached a more shall we say "mature" age level to ditch the tights. Mother Nature would be much less likely to suck and you won't scare the pigeons. Have a wonderful BD Adven. The big 4-0 was one of my favourites. You're no longer referred to as one of those "thirty-somethings" and you're not an "over-the-hill" 50. Trust me on this one,there's something positive in every cloud sent our way. hearty. |
Adven | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 03:46 pm  By God, thanks, Wink! I just let the tights out a notch or two and I feel like a new man! |
Maire | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 06:50 pm  Oh Adven, just when you think your'll get over the big 4-0, the big 4-1 comes up. I should know, I'll be 41 next month -- Aaaaagggghhhh!!! btw, Happy Birthday! |
Adven | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 07:52 pm  Thanks, Maire. |
Digilady | Tuesday, February 06, 2001 - 11:04 pm  Happy Birthday ADVEN!!  |
Adven | Wednesday, February 07, 2001 - 04:36 am  Thanks, Digi. |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, February 07, 2001 - 04:55 am  Happy Birthday. I forgot to say that in the heat of Keiths bandana dispute. Another fault.....it takes the attention off personal relationsips by being distracting. |
Rollerboy | Wednesday, February 07, 2001 - 07:23 am  Digi, sorry about toque, I think I was trying to think of tocque (still haven't checked). Anyway, it's a chef's hat. I sure someone knows the correct spelling. |
Moondance | Wednesday, February 07, 2001 - 10:59 am  toque or toque blanche - chef's hat |
Rollerboy | Thursday, February 08, 2001 - 09:20 am  Merci beaucoup, Moon. I was right the first time. One of the first times that has ever happened, with spelling at least. |
Enbwife | Thursday, February 08, 2001 - 07:45 pm  Okay - I am here to defend my pick for the win - Jerri! Although I don't particularly like her as a person, I chose her before the show started, so must do my duty. I believe she is taking on almost a "leader of the alliance" role in the Ogakor Tribe. I therefore believe that her chances for staying until at least the merge is good!!! Come on all, defend your picks here. |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 12:04 am  Lisa, gotta say she didn't give you much to work with. So, Charles Manson does have a daughter--or Dick Hatch has a sister. Same difference. (ok, a little different) Keith is my pick. Pretty easy to defend. He finally had a chance to show his stuff tonight, and didn't fail at the chance. While is stock rose as to his worth, I note that he still does chores, and now have decided he must wear that damn bandana because every chef has to wear something on their heads. It's the best he could come up with. Much like a cowboy hat for a cowboy, although cowboy hats are much more obnoxious. His only mistake was telling Colby he feels Mitchell should be voted off. At least he had reasons for it. Not just because someone else started an alliance against him. Bat, Adven, et al--come out and defend. |
Wink | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 11:35 am  Lance I'm with you on Keith. He was my pre-game choice and I'm stickin with him. Hope the fact he has the integrity sadly missing in the rest of his crew helps them see the light. |
Fruitbat | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 11:56 am  Well I have no one to defend and it is all Ebok's fault. Debb is gone. Just for the exercize I'll defend Alicia and Amber. They have emerged as my favorites. I like Colby too but I think he is well represented. Enbwife...I like Jerri after last night so I'll help you out here. She is playing the game which is why she is there. She has a very strong personality and I find nothing wrong with that. She may surprize us all. She will make the merger and possibly the final 4. In order for any of us to defend our picks we will have to come to peace with the fact that integrity will most likely be absent. I think this game is based on treachery and deceipt and they all know that and are on guard. If anyone does display integrity they will win. I am on the lookout for that. Lance....I'll wager that Keith will be out before the merger, possibly next. He is irritating everyone. He is smug. Smug does not play well. |
Adven | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 11:58 am  I don't have anything in particular against your chief cook and bottle washer, Wink and Lance, but I think he's in no man's land. His tribe seems to have developed a 4/5 person alliance and he isn't in it. He also has set himself against Jerri - and who can blame him? - but she is in the alliance. Too, and a little ominously, three of his tribe mates made comments to the effect that anyone could take over his role as chef. If Tina doesn't go the next time their tribe goes to council, I don't see how it's going to be anyone but Keith. |
Wink | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 12:43 pm  Colby is going to use then lose the witchy woman. The other (I don't have a brain of my own) robots will follow his lead as he aligns with Keith and they proceed to the merger. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Fruit I disagree. Keith is not smug. He's tres dignified. |
Seamonkey | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 02:49 pm  I like Keith.. don't think he's smug and I think he is less negative than most. I'm not confident that he'll survive, unless that alliance breaks up real SOON! I notice Jerri is way down in the latest poll on the official site I loved Maralyn's gig on the early show this morning!! |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 02:50 pm  Seamonkey, I missed it. What did she talk about? |
Enbwife | Friday, February 09, 2001 - 08:31 pm  I agree with you guys that Keith is not going to make it for much longer... He'll be out before the merger... |
