Tabby, that post of mine was about 6 weeks old!! I think he is darling, but he is no longer on Hermione's Harem list simply because there are too many others and I ran out of room. Plus Shawna got him. Plus he wears speedos. Unless you are an Olympic swimmer, no speedos, please. They make me nervous. I saw a man, ummm, oh geez, I'll just say it-- aroused-- at the swimming pool when I was a teenager and he was wearing speedos. It was rather a nightmare image. I cannot see speedos without thinking about it. It was very traumatic and may have scarred me for life.

Alex 0n The Early Show today was really pretty gracious. He admitted he made a mistake by telling Rob he would be voted out at #4. He said that if voting were right now, he would vote according to who is playing the game the best and that would be "my man Rob."
He also said he would rather be himself than win a million dollars. What a jerk. He could win the million and then go back to being his arrogant, mundane self.
I am glad the Pagonging is over.

Early Show Interview Transcript

Contributors from Survivor Fever
Zinc, BlindFreddyÊ
Highlights From Segment 1:

* Alex stated he had no regrets and held no grudges against anyone, even Rob. He said he had alot of fun, it was awesome and that he had a blast.
* Although Alex did say he wouldn't have done the same (backstab) to Rob, as that's not how he would treat his friends.
* Alex said he wouldn't have betrayed his final 4 (Jenna/Heidi/Rob) b/c that not how he believes in treating his friends and that he didn't want to change who he was in order to win a game.
* Alex said he was only a 'little surprised' as his boot, a little shocked, but not 'amazingly surprised'. He realized only a moment before Jeff read his name that it was going to be him.
* Never felt in physical danger from Matt, but wondered sometimes what Matt was all about, what was going on behind Matt's eyes. He said Matt's actions were a 'little disconcerting' at times...a little 'nerve wracking'. But Alex said he didn't know if Matt was doing this as a role for the game, as strategy or not.
* Alex said he would have taken Jenna to the Final Two w/him if he had gotten that far, due to Jenna's mom and health needs.
* Alex thought that Rob is definitely playing the game the best...right now. "He played a great game....he's playing a great game".
* Alex said he and Shawna are just friends and that he is not allowed to hang out w/other survivors until the Finale.
* Alex said several times that his Amazon experience wasn't about the money, but rather the challenge and the experience.
* Alex indicated his criteria for picking the winner as a jury member is who played the game the best and who really made an effort to be the sole survivor.

Hi Moonie! If Alex is honest, he better not vote for Jenna!

(a) Alex said he would have taken Jenna to the Final Two w/him if he had gotten that far, due to Jenna's mom and health needs.
(b) Alex indicated his criteria for picking the winner as a jury member is who played the game the best and who really made an effort to be the sole survivor.
(c) So, if he had taken Jenna to the F2, he would have expected the jury to award him the $1 million, right???

I dont know if it is a repeat but Letterman promo says Alex is on tonight. If it is anything like his show with Dave, it should be good for a laugh.

I have to think that the person that Jeff said "had it all wrapped up and then just one conversation and it was like they drove their car off the road at 60 mph" was ALEX.

When you stop and think about it Deanna was going to be voted out no matter what because she was considered bossy.

If Alex had not told Rob that he was going 4th or even 3rd Alex would have won the money.

The 4 of them would pick off B/C/M then Alex and Rob could have eliminated either H/J.

Alex was strong enough to outlast everyone other than Matt (who would have gone the moment he lost a IC) thus Alex could have taken out Rob and taken one of the girls (H/J) with him. No one likes the girls and they (the jury) all think they were lazy.

Maybe he was not capable of thinking it out.

Alex would have won but he just opened his mouth at the wrong time and drove off the road.

Oh, Csnog! I think so! Good one! I wonder why he wasn't even considered for awhile. Think about it you guys, he was definitely in the driver's seat there. He had a good chance at winning the ICs and he was in prime condition to cruise to the end! This is probably also the scenario where someone jumps ship. It was Rob! I don't think we have to worry about those two hints from JP anymore. JP just switch numbers around to give it a little mystery.

Hermione ... I read somewhere that it was a rule that they had to wear Speedos if they went in the water ... because of thingies that could invade your private parts! Ewwww. But don't blame Alex for the Speedo!

Really? Okay. He is forgiven for the speedos!! (But he still didn't end up as someone I liked very much.)

Alex looked so cute on Letterman last night, but I couldn't believe he said the reason he lost was because a member of his alliance betrayed him (Rob)
Gee Alex, you don't think it was because you made the mistake of telling Rob to his face that he couldn't do any better than 4th place in your alliance?

Cnog, you could be right about Alex being the one who drove his car off the road. He told Matt way back when they were at the new Jambaru that he would be voting for him. This seems to be a theme with him. He couldn't change who he was, and told Rob the same thing. That makes sense.
The only thing that is still nagging at me is the statement by Jeff that because so and so says something to such and such both people are mad at EACH OTHER. (Alex wasn't mad at Rob) This makes me think that its Jenna that says something to Matt, and Matt and Rob get into it and are mad at EACH OTHER. Causing either one of them to show up at that TC and vote for each other. Plus, the tie reference. But, your probably right.

Oh, I missed that about "each other." Hmmmm. Well, I bet Alex was pretty mad at Rob when he got voted out, LOL!

I can't wait for Thursday!

Did anyone else find Alex to be the most obnoxious during the finale?? He acted like an immature <sd>, both while in tribal council and during the reunion show.

He came accross as a jerk. All that eye rolling, and shaking his head. Putting Matt down was the absolute last straw with me. Good looks can carry you a long way in this world, but it sure has stunted his maturity.

I missed the reunion part with him, but his behavior at tribal council stunk of "sore loser".

Gina, I thought the same thing! I LOL when JP cut him off saying ok where is your story going!
He never came off that way during the game

He wasn't looking so cute to me anymore after that performance. Can you say bitter. For him to think Jenna (wasn't he the one who mentionned highschool behaviour?) was the better player than Matt...

Spitfire

Agreed 100% Gina. It was almost like he was looking for attention because he felt he deserved it.

Alaginger

Monday, May 12, 2003 - 09:44 am EditMoveDeleteIP
I felt the same way. He babbled on (more than once) like a high-school teenage girl might. He lost a lot of favoritism points with me for that performance.

Oh, Gina, you are SO right. I thought the exact same thing. He was so clearly threatened by the fact that he didn't make it to the final two. Way back in the beginning when Alex went head to head with Roger about homosexuality, I really liked him and was rooting for him. He quickly went down in my estimation because of his arrogant behavior on the show, but after last night's behavior he went WAY down.

Alex was the one who was clueless in the game and life not Matt.

Matt is soooo Mature and Alex has a lot of growing up to do. He and Jenna would make a great pair

Prissy... that's the one word that came to me when watching Alex on the reunion show... girl prissy... catty prissy... perhaps in-the-closet prissy... not that there's anything WRONG with that... prissy, prissy, prissy...
