Flint | Thursday, April 05, 2001 - 08:42 pm  I almost bust a gut when Kentucky Joe shouted: "My leaf had a hole in it!" |
Seamonkey | Thursday, April 05, 2001 - 09:23 pm  That was a good one!! So we were right about the "natural consequences". Actually most of those interviewed so far have mentioned first meals after being voted off as being gorges of hard to digest stuff, followed by.. natural consequences... they need to start slowly. Yes the leaf thing was funny.. and at least Nick had the energy to bathe. |
Flint | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 07:13 am  Yes, I suppose we could include a Nick quote, which probably helped get him tossed; "I haven't helped with fishing before, why should I start now?" |
Rollerboy | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 07:21 am  Something Roger said in the previews and I have to paraphrase, "We built our camp in a dry stream bed and now it looks like the camp's in trouble." |
Showers | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:14 pm  yeah, especially since he suggested it might happen when Jerri was insisting to put the camp in the dry bed. |
Fruitbat | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:30 pm  I find it irritating that Rodger did not speak a little louder about his observation. I think he may have just said it to the camera. Yes he is kind and soft spoken but there are times to speak up respectfully and make your knowledge available. He didn't have to insist, he just needed to persist enough to get a conversation going so the group could consider this option. This much passivity can cause as many problems as a wide swing the other way. It is just harder to indentify immediately. It all surfaces in time. I'm sure his personal life bears witness to this fact. |
Rollerboy | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:37 pm  Jerri was driving the train when that decision was made Bat. It would have taken a lot more than persistence and conversation to change things once "Jerri has spoken". |
Elitist | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:42 pm  If I remember right, Jerri might have been driving the train, but the comment was also made that the "women" wanted the camp in the sand because it was more comfortable to sleep there. There may be more than one person that pressured the camp to be in the stream bed. |
Moondance | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:42 pm  They had a chance to move camp but choose not to... can't blame Jerri now! |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:54 pm  Jerri made the firm request that it be made in the dry creek bed. Others said no, yet she continued insisting. I think she can be held responsible for that. They had all seen the results of doing something other than what Jerri wants. (she herself admits to being a control freak) Being swept downstream would be a welcome relief from that. With her gone, moving the camp won't bring on her tirades. |
Moondance | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 01:56 pm  Yes but they had a chance in the show last night but chose to stay in the creek bed so NOT Jerri's fault... she is busy eating and having fun at the ranch! |
Moondance | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 02:02 pm  oh well... typos |
Showers | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 02:04 pm  Being someone who works with a control freak, sometimes it's just easier to go along with that person rather than try to change their mind. We all know that Jerri is much pushier than Rodger and if she didn't get her way, she would have made everyone suffer the consequences in one way or another. At work, I just stay away from this person as much as possible and run in the opposite direction when she comes my way. It's easier than stressing myself out over her when it doesn't bother her in the least to be a witch. |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 02:06 pm  Oh, THAT time when they didn't move! Yes, I agree--that one is not Jerri's fault for not moving. And they all had a hand in going along with her "request" to have camp in the creek bed. That was why I wanted them to throw things at themselves after throwing things at Jerri in the jury box if they had been drenched while sleeping. |
Fruitbat | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 03:04 pm  Oh dear. So everyone was a victim of Jerri's pathology? The victim position is so very comfortable, is it not? We needn't take any responsibility for our own situation or inability to speak up. Just point the finger. It is not our fault. It was all HER fault. I am probably starting something I don't want to finnish. This attitude is unsettling to me is all. |
Moondance | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 03:12 pm  You Go MsBat! |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 03:17 pm  So it's Keith, or Roger's or Elisabeth's fault that Jerri insisted on the creek bed? I remember a few of them speaking up, yet she insisted. I guess they could have all tied her up, or just made camp somewhere else. I believe I did mention they had a hand in choosing to go with her demands. She could have also relented when out--voted. She didn't. Who's fault do you think that is, if it's not Jerri's? It was still her that demanded it. Unless someone else heard differently?? |
Fruitbat | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 03:32 pm  My point........if you try to find who is at fault then you must have victims. It is NO ONES fault. I wish I had kept my mouth shut. This is a serious discussion that I am not anxious to continue. My fault for starting it. |
Affinity | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 03:44 pm  blah blah blah, this is a quote thread |
Lancecrossfire | Friday, April 06, 2001 - 03:45 pm  Ok, Bat, I can stop discussing it. I had no problem with you starting it. |

Wilsonatmd | Saturday, April 07, 2001 - 01:22 am  I can't remember who said it,(It think it was either Mike or Colby early on when he was making a vote during TC, for the eventual bootee). This isn't an exact quote but it's close. "Thanks for playing. We have some lovely parting gifts for you." Gotta love the game show reference. |
Seamonkey | Saturday, April 07, 2001 - 02:47 pm  I kinda liked Tina saying "well here's your ticket home, buddy" when she voted for Nick. |
Flint | Saturday, April 07, 2001 - 04:03 pm  It was kind of funny to see Colby start singing ; o/~ Ding dong the witch is dead... o/~ Wasn't Colby the one trying to convince Keith and Tina to stay with the original plan and vote of the other tribe first? |
