According to the CBS site:
>>Injuries plague a tribe, which employs a remedy you won't believe <<

I was looking around last week at the CBS site, and one of "remedies" for stinging Sea Urchins, and Jelly Fish, etc, is the "dreaded" Urine trick. I wonder if Rob got stung, and someone has to "pee" on it???

They may have to cut the area with a knife and allow the wound to bleed freely. We saw a second or two of that or the implication anyway.

I happen to have a bit of knowledge/experience with the urine thing.

When I was young, my family and I lived in the Virgin Islands for almost a year. We all went out on a boat with some friends and since our house was right on the beach, they dropped us off in the water about 100 feet or so from the shore.

My sister had on flippers and a mask, but my mom and I didn't. There were sea urchins everywhere and I freaked out. You know the black ones with the long pointy spikes? Well to make a long story short, I clung to my mother like a leech because I was so scared to step on them. She had no choice but to step on dozens of these creatures and about 30 or so of the spikes were embedded in the bottom of her feet as well as in her ankles.

She went to the local doctor on the island and he told her to have everyone in the house pee in the toilet, don't flush. He then told her to soak her feet in the pee-water.

Sure enough, they dissolved right out after a couple days of periodic soaking. Apparently it's the best way to get them out. I don't know if someone just gave you a golden shower that it would have the same effect. :)

I was checking out the site last week, and went and read the "Survival Guide" under the Marquesas heading. It talks about the urine cure for several different stings, and also lime juice for bug bites. If you read the episode recap, it talks about Sarah applying lime juice to repell bugs. There are also a couple different flowering fruit plants that would be deadly if they ate them. It was kind of interesting.

It seems that John hurts his hand, and Robert steps on a sea urchin. Rotu will be hurting for next week's challenges, or at least be a little less than 100%.

Wonder if John will be the one to pee on Robert. LOL. I would think someone must pee directly on him. Maybe they will pee into a canteen. Do you think they would pee into one of their cooking pots so he can make a pee bath? They don't seem to have any other containers. And no soap to wash them out. Yuck. I thought B.B. and his ratty undershirts were gross. The pee pot or the pee canteen would be the worst.

[ROTFL I am giggling like a second grader about the number of times I have typed "pee" in a TVCH post. I haven't laughed this hard about bodily functions and TVCH since Will diarrhead himself on the trampoline.]

LOL... this reminds me of the Friends episode where Monica and Chandler were on the beach (way before they were a couple) and she stepped on a sea urchin and he had to pee on her wound.

Yes, although I think it was a jellyfish. The part that was the funniest was when Joey said he stepped up to the plate and got stage fright. Then Chandler had to do it and I think the episode may have had a few lines with Chandler asking Monica if she ever thought they could be a couple. I thought she said something like, maybe, but to me you'll always be the guy that peed on me.

LOL, I wish they would bring this up again now that they are married.

Whowhere, yeah I suppose. But it makes it funnier to think of them arguing about whether or not to pee in a pot or canteen. Can't you just see Kathy bossing about it right now? "I don't care if you don't have to go! We need to pee and we need to pee NOW!" And then whining about it: "Sniff. I was the one that made everyone pee. But just because John's the nurse he gets all the credit. The pee was my idea!" And then John: "I think my standing with the tribe has improved because I am a nurse and I applied the pee salve to Robert's foot. They now know that I am the provider of pee."

LMAO!!

I don't know how I'd feel about the token gay guy peeing on me .

I'm thinking that they'd be arguing about the braided fronds that Sarah was so insistent on. "If you lay them across each other in a criss-cross fashion, less pee will escape and we'd be able to salvage the pee for a longer time. Doesn't anyone agree with me?...... whatever, piss on you all!"

You folks always crack me up- my family has serious doubts about my sanity as I giggle to myself while I read.

I thought it looked like they dropped the thing they were carrying on Robert's foot. Where did the sea urchin come in? I 'll have to rewatch the preview.

I'm in the health care profession and I must admit that I have never had such a facinating and indepth discussion about urine (pee) in my life. It was great! THANX!!

Maybe on the soundtrack they'll play "You Make Me Feel" by Urethra Franklin.

(Hey Merlin. Was that edgy?)

My only regret will be that Kathy wasn't the one stung, cuz I bet everyone would volunteer to pee on her
