Car54 | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 12:11 am     Ew Bat....they will NEVER eat puppies on Survivor... this is CBS Primetime. (Maybe on Fear Factor...NBC does NOT understand reality TV!) Never, never, never. |
Chiparock | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 03:10 am     I don't usually view videos on my computer, a notebook using dial-up modem -- one needs an eagle eye and lots of patience. But someone mentioned that Shii Ann's audition tape video is funny, so I watched it. Impressive; it was a short movie, complete with background music. Her Master's Degree in Telecommunications from NYU came in handy. This audition tape is masterful! It's funny and shows a light-hearted Shii Ann able to laugh at herself and have fun with life. Don't miss it! http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor5/survivors/bios/shiiann.shtml She is now my favorite Survivor! |
Wiseolowl | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 04:49 am     Fruitbat maybe we could all transer over to the General Discussion board to the cat, puppy and recipe threads and we could combine all three into one big discussion and it would solve everybody's problem |
Scarlett | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 06:17 am     I like Shii Ann. I also think this conflict with Robb is just a difference in personalities. Both are very opinionated, and their opinions clash. I do not agree that Robb is dumb. He may be, but I have not seen evidence of that yet. I think he is just very "young". Very immature but will eventually catch up. I have to disagree with you guys about the "double dipping". You may be on survivor, but you can wipe your hands on something before going into the chicken bin again. I would have been grossed out by that too. The chicken organs, not a problem. Your greasy saliva coated fingers offering me a bite....yeah....a problem. |
Seamonkey | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 12:05 pm     I really like Shii Ann. Always have. |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 02:00 pm     well, i have read all fruitbat's posts and am confused as to where people picked up about eating puppies?? all i saw was that fruit and i like the same types of food and will try many things...but i haven't eaten dog and don't plan to, and don't see where fruit said she ate a puppy!! i would love to sample haggis, for example...that's the first thing i would look for if i were in scotland! that, and a good shot of scotch and drambuie...the old rusty nail... |
Wiseolowl | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 03:18 pm     Tabbyking , nobody said that Fruitbat ate puppies. Come on. You may be referring to my post - which surely you must realize was tongue in cheek and meant to be humorous - guess I failed ( and am a dog lover by the way). If you read how the discussion was going we were all getting graphic about non -North American diets and at one point Fruitbat mentioned that in Asia the eating of dog is not out of the question. |
Lancecrossfire | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 03:46 pm     Bat does not eat puppies---fermented mangos yes, puppies, no Shii Ann is used to a bit different fare than someone like Robb would prefer. Also, Robb may have never been in a position to have to use chicken necks to make a soup, or he may just not like the idea of eating some parts of an animal. To each his own. It's hard t tell how much Shii Ann contributes her ideas compared to what we see her saying to the camera. It's clear though that Robb doesn't appreciate it when she does say something. |
Chiparock | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 04:14 pm     Guess we don't have to send PETA after Fruitbat!  |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 04:24 pm     wise, it wasn't your post! i knew that was a joke. i think it was car's 'they will never eat puppies on survivor' that got me thinking... i guess i didn't go back far enough to find fruit's talk of eating dogs in asia...but i already knew about that. when our dogs disappeared in the bay area, we wondered... loved the dog, chiparock!! |
Chiparock | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 05:23 pm     Thanks, Tabby! Here's one for you:
 |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 06:49 pm     thanks, chip!! i love the tapping foot. i really am talented! i can drink, wag my tail and tap my foot at the same time. wow... who said i can't walk and chew gum at the same time? i'll show them!! |
Tester | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 07:50 pm     Here you go Tabby  |
Chiparock | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 08:32 pm     Tabby, when you have a chance, check out your member folder. |
Sia | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 09:22 pm     Would one of the marrow-sucking bone-chewers explain something to me, please? This may belong in the "I have a Dumb Question" thread, but I have a burning question that has bothered me for years: WHAT is that crinkly brain-looking brown thing you find on the back of a chicken thigh? Thanks in advance! |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 09:24 pm     how sweet, chip! thanks for all the well wishes! i am getting better and only have to have blood tests once a week or so...much nicer than every single day, especially as the nearest place i can have it done is 50 miles away! tester, well, at least i can walk--now if we could just get a big ol' pink bubble to come out of the mouth, to prove i can walk and chew gum! |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 09:28 pm     sia, huh?! i asked my husband, because i only like the breast meat and the organs! he said, 'it's the back of the chicken thigh.' yeah, he is brilliant, isn't he?! that's because he's 'retarded' from the military...according to what our son shared with his kindergarten class on career day! career day in kindergarten?! well, i guess that explains my daughter thinking she could be a bus driver and a tiger....lol |
Sia | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 09:38 pm     Tabby, ask that rocket scientist of yours, LOL, AGAIN, "What's that weird thing I refuse to eat that is found under the extra-crispy breading on the back of a chicken thigh?"

Weinermr | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 09:59 pm     Sia, check out this link. pope's nose |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 11:52 pm     oh, the thing we always referred to as 'the part that goes over the fence last'?! pope's nose it is....ick |
Tabbyking | Saturday, October 19, 2002 - 11:59 pm     ha! that reminds me of a story of my sister's mother-in-law. once she was complaining that my sister's kids shouldn't be allowed to be picky eaters and said, 'when we were little, we had to eat every bit of a chicken, even their little peckers.' and everyone fell down laughing and she was going, 'i mean their little beaks. you know, the things they peck with!' so, to be polite, my nephew decided he would eat something small off a chicken. he asked what his sister had taken and my sister said, 'she took a wing.' and cory thought for a minute, then said, 'i'll take a knee.' with relatives like that, how can i be expected to know what's behind a chicken's thigh?! lol man, this shii ann topic sure is fun, isn't it?! and to think i even painted a whole bathroom between posts...wonder what it will look like when i get up in the morning?!! |
Whoami | Sunday, October 20, 2002 - 01:44 am     You know, I was wondering if everyone was looking at Shii wierd or something while they were eating the chicken. Or maybe she really was being gross when she ate. The camera had extreme close up shots of her mouth while she was eating. Naturally, any extreme close up shot like that is going to look like "gross eating habits." How would the cameraman know to get that kind of shot, considering the whining about her "table manners" was done during the later confessional? |
Fruitbat | Sunday, October 20, 2002 - 05:52 am     Wiseowl, thanks.  |
Kaili | Sunday, October 20, 2002 - 03:13 pm     Whoami- maybe there had been previous discussions about her eating, so they purposely aimed the cameras at that in anticipation of it (and of something to show on TV). |
Sia | Sunday, October 20, 2002 - 09:44 pm     Weiner, I never heard of a "pope's nose" before; that was interesting. I don't mean the chicken's TAIL; I've seen and eaten that before. It's entirely FAT, and I know that's gross, but my Grams always eats that part and got me to try one years ago. The chicken's tail-feathers are stuck into the tail. I mean the little crinkly brown thing that is part OF the thigh and is found on the back-side of the thigh under the breading. It's not the chicken's tail. It doesn't really matter. I was just wondering. It seems strange to me, and I've never known what that crazy thing was. I think I'll ask my grandmother! Back to Shii Ann: I read in a transcript of what Robb said that he thought it was gross of her to lick her fingers excessively and put her hands back into the communal food-pot. But as someone else posted, no worse than his stinky foot being in the cooking-pot after he was injured in the water! |
