Kitty, I agree with you about Ken. I think he is use to people deferring to him.

So far, Ken is almost a nonentity on the show. He seems nice enough, but they haven't given him much time. He is the middle of my list.

Robbs take home pay was $25,000.00 less taxes of course.

Webkitty said: "If Ken goes now, I can see him having a chip on his shoulder by final TC."

If he wants me on his shoulder, I'm there! All the better to see those mesmerizing baby blues!

Seriously though, he seems rough around the edges, whereas Brian is a really smooth operator. I'd like to see Brian and Shii Ann at the end.

I'm in that I can't get into it mode with Survivor this time around. But I will say as long as Ghandia or Robb don't win the big bucks I really don't care who wins it. I'm glad they are both gone.

I think back and I don't think I ever met someone who is kind and caring who rubs me the wrong way. Unless I gotten to know them really well and found out they weren't as sweet and nice as I thought they were.

She even cared about a dying little bat, and made sure the little thing had a funeral. How can you not like someone who wouldn't hurt a flea. Ok, never mind don't answer that, because if you do that will only make me want to root for her,(the underdog) and you know what that will mean. I would have to do some painting in big bold letters, and make up some GO JAN! signs. And visit a few of member's folders who are anti Jan, just because. And y'all don't want me to do that, now do ya.

Now on the other hand if I had found that bat or any other dying thing lying around, it would of gross me out, and I wouldn't have gone near it... Ewwwwww and yuck!!

I can say none of the remaining Survivors bother me. Even Clay, in fact I find some of his comments funny. Don't have a problem with Jan or Shi ann either. I do find Ken and Brian very attractive to the eyes. And so far their game is good. Both just might make it to the final two.

It would be a hoot though if Jan makes it to the final two. Now that I would enjoy seeing, just because.

OK, I can't think of anything really mean to say about any of the remaining Survivors. I hope MB puts someone else in the spotlight with all their warts and psychoses showing. All this saccarin and sweetness reminds me of myself, and who wants to see that? ;-D

Jan is great for all of us near or approaching her age because we can feel so much younger looking. So, being the sweet person that she is, here she is doing us all a big favour.

I really thought she was seriously losing it when she cried over the bat. It was inane! Perhaps it was just her way of dealing with stress. Clay's exaggerated negative responses to her pi$$ me off, however.

That's what is boring about the show.

We used to be the fly on the wall seeing and hearing much more about them. We no longer are privey to knowing who they are aligning with until MB decides we should know.

We are now either being shown highly edited shows or the players are a different breed.

Has anyone even seen Ken and Jake talking to each other?

Fruitbat: I don't believe there is a yankee in the whole state of Oregon. We are a definate entity in our own unique catagory. Sort of a one for all and everyman for himself kind of mentality.

I'm sure Jan has spent much time in the sun but I suspect she was a smoker also.. THAT really ages the skin.. and she may have started out with dry skin..

My mom smoked for many years, and was in the sun.. avid golfer for even more years, but had oily type skin and she certainly aged but didn't get the really wrinkly skin, even when she died at almost 80.

She basically really bugs me and I think it would be quite wearing to live in close quarters with her, but I don't hate her or anything.. still I prefer several others to win. Shii Ann is my fav.

I'm just SO grateful that Robb is gone.

The discussion up thread about people holding grudges rings a bell with me!! I know on Survivor you start out on a team and have to try to keep a strong team, then you merge and have to worry about getting rid of those who are big threats, and there are alliances, but I've never heard anyone discuss targetting someone to keep them OFF the jury. At this point I think I'd want Clay to go for that reason. Yes, Ted is definitely a threat, but I suspect less of a grudgeholder (Ghandia being an exception).

Now, see, there are TONNES of Shii Ann supporters here, and I cannot stand that girl! She comes on the screen, starts whining, and I start screaming at my TV... I really don't like her - can you guess? I really want Clay or Ted gone this week, but I have a feeling it's going to be Ken... NOT KEN?!?!?!?! I REALLY like Ken, and Brian, but I'm not liking that many others... It's a strange season, that's for sure!!!

I, too, was a bit startled by Jan's "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?" ponytails the first time I saw them but if she likes that style and it's comfortable & practical, that's good enough for me. A fair number of posters thought Tom from S3 looked older than mid-40's but even his appearance wasn't mocked as much as Jan's has been.

That didn't look like an embryonic or even fetal-stage bat to me. It may have been stillborn or died shortly after birth. I don't care if others think it's silly, I'd have felt bad, too. Perhaps Jan does act too emotional at times but her comment was that she felt bad for a little animal that never got the chance to live. I would never sneer at such a heartfelt sentiment and think it's a pity that more people don't extend their compassion to all creatures.

Oops, forgot to add...the reason I mentioned "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" is because it was the only example I could think of an older woman wearing twin ponytails. Didn't mean to leave the impression I thought there was a comparison between Jan and the rather grotesque movie character.

I'm not crazy about Shii Anne (sp??) but none of the players left really bug me too much. My favorite is Brian as well - he just seems to keep it all together w/o back stabbing anyone (like so many of them do).

I'm guessing that Jan will look much better at the final show - Geeze I can't EVEN imagine going all that time in the sea water & dirt w/o lotion or make up or anything. I actually could do w/o the make up (I don't wear much anyways) but the person that attempts to take away my lotion would have to pay (heheh)

Calamity - Tom from S3 looked so much better in person (see my photo w/ him) I was shocked that he cleaned up so nice & you would have a hard time finding a more down to earth, truly kind , heart of gold man to get to chat with - :P

Jan makes me slightly uncomfortable because to me she comes across as a 12-year old in a "53"-year old body. Not that there's anything wrong with that; it's simply disconcerting.

Jan's birthday is this Thursday (Halloween). She'll be 54.

Oh! Coincidently, speaking of birthdays:

Goldie Hawn's birthday is 11-21-45 (she's 56).
Jane Fonda's birthday is 12-21-37 (she's 64).
Candice Bergen's birthday is 5-09-46 (she's 56).
Cybil Shepherd's birthday is 2-18-50 (she's 52).
Shelley Long's birthday is 8-23-49 (she's 53).

wow goldie hawn is 56 and shelley long is 53, wow i didn't know they were in their 50's.

well i will still talk about ken 'cause he's hott, and that's really all i want to talk about. he just keeps getting better and better looking with that stubble. and brian too keeps getting better. i also like ted, more for his personality than his hottieness.

Calamity, I've seen Phyllis Diller wear her hair in two ponytails for comedy sketches, too; the effect is the same, imo: smileyjawdrop

Risa and DJgirl,you have company! :)
I don't know..I just think Shii Ann comes across as arrogant,humorless,and mean-spirited.I reeeeeeeally didn't like it when she mocked Robb's pain when he was attacked by that stingray. The guy was in pain! How about show some support??
Oh,I forgot-you're the She-devil!<yawn>

Shii Ann,your time is up!
Nothing Personal! LOL

Fruitbat, a Yankee is everybody not born in a state that fought for the South in the Civil War, from the southern states point of view. From the point of view of the rest of the country, the only Yankees live in New England. So, being from Illinois, I was never a Yankee until I moved to the south, when I automatically became one, regardless of whether or not I knew I actually was one. Is that clear?

Guess I'm a Yankee by birth.. born in District of Columbia, BUT we lived in Maryland or Virginia (we lived in one my first two years and the other my second two but danged if I know which was which).. then up to Michigan (which would have been considered "west" in Civil War days, I suspect (that's why the Michigan fight song calls them the "champions of the west").

And for most of my life, California, a world of its own.

But guess I'd become a Yankee if I suddenly became Juju's neighbor :)

Love it Magi k. you are so right. She has spent the whole time on the island mocking Robb. Can you imagine working in the same place as the Shi-devil? I'd have to go to Robb's bar after work and have him pour me a major drink.

I just saw the promo on TV for the movie "Jackasses" and I swear on my tiki torch that there was Robb's grinning face, right there doing the advert. Now, I only saw it for a few seconds, but I'm sure I am not mistaken. Did anyone else see it? Is this perfect or what? They could not possibly have found a better movie for him.

Hot dog, now we have someone to talk about. Go to the Ken Stafford thread and compare his Survivor photo with an airbrushed nude shot of him that may or may not be him.

If you look at all of the threads on this board, I suspect that Robb (with two B's) Zabatnick has gotten more comments than all of the other players combined. Even a week after his eviction he's the topic of conversation. Maybe going to the Ken thread and talking about what movie star he ressembles does it for some of our female posters - but it doesn't do it for me.

Robb was one of the most entertaining guys to ever hit reality TV and whatever you think of him, the show won't be the same - how I wish he had survived the merge - then the ... would have really hit the fan

I hope Penny is the next to go. I just don't like that arrogant, smirky, rat-faced smile. I am so glad ShiAnn gave it to her with both barrels.

P.S. I am still so glad Robb is gone. He never entertained me. He only annoyed me.
