Chill_Town | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 05:49 am     My guess as to what the burried treasure is, is a treasure chest full of everyones personal belongings ( clothes and what not )... Anyone else have any other ideas? |
Pagal | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 06:01 am     Jeff told them that the chest contains enough supplies to last them a long time. |
Chill_Town | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 09:22 am     Oh I know, I was just trying to guess what these " Supplies " were... |
Lilfair | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 09:30 am     The Morgan tribe better start digging that entire island up...mush mush! |
Lori | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 09:36 am     Can you imagine how deep the treasure is buried? Could you believe how deep the flags were buried for the challenge. I thought for sure Drake was digging in the wrong area! |
Rupertbear | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 09:39 am     Um, let's see..what did they give them in Survivors gone by? Fishing hooks Blankets Lantern Kerosene Rice Soap Knife Cooking Implements Wow...a veritable pirate's trove of booty!! No pieces of eight or rum though ;) |
Pagal | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 10:03 am     Oh, I'm sorry Chill! I thought you hadn't seen the show. I'm guessing they're be a water can and a frying along with the items Rupertbear mentioned. |
Enigma2 | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 11:53 am     Let's see? A treasure chest of items that will last them a long time? I know: —frozen dinners, ice cream, hot pockets |
Kalekona | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 12:21 pm     I'd start looking too, with or without the clues.. stroll around the island and look for disturbed earth. How well could they have hidden fresh turned dirt? It would be worth the effort and they could get lucky. |
Not1worry | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 01:24 pm     I hope there's some more clothes in there. |
Rupertbear | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 02:05 pm     Lol, Enigma...they can only hope! Yes, Not....these poor people, the environment is taking a quick toll on what they are wearing....everything is beginning to look like rags already. |
Foliage | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 02:39 pm     I need them to get more clothes! I was already sick of bare chests after BB, now the semi-naked pirates! Yuk. My kids about barfed when Lil dove in the water and flashed us her "granny panties" |
Sherlockcat | Friday, September 26, 2003 - 04:39 pm     I thought Rupert said he had to take off his levis because he had nothing under them and they were rubbing his "parts" raw and that is why they fashioned that bottom of the skirt. In fact, one of the previews had a blue dot over his "parts" when he was squatted down. How then did he get those white undershorts which we saw when he jumped into the water???? |
Prisonerno6 | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 07:31 am     I got the impression that it was his thighs that were getting chafed. I don't think he referred specifically to his "parts." Having had to walk around in wet jeans in the past, I can tell you, even with underwear on, wherever you bend and the jeans bend can become a misery. Wet folded denim is like a knife... |
Ark | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 11:12 am     You're right Prisoner, he said they were chafing his thighs but "parts" made me laugh really loud. |
Pamy | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 12:02 pm     Chilltown...great thread! I hope there are clothes in it, although I am enjoying watching Rupert in that skirt! lol |
Catfat | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 12:53 pm     Oh, I so hope they get clothes soon. This is not attractive to look at. Uh-uh. |
Jane_Bond | Saturday, September 27, 2003 - 01:56 pm     My husdand gets chafed just in the summer heat, with boxer-briefs on and just shorts! It's not pleasant. Didn't that doofus tribe in Thailand get wine one night, the night before Robb (dude! that's 2 b's) got ousted? Perhaps there will be some nice Rum How about cutlery? A sewing kit? A cooking pot? Dried meat? |
Enigma2 | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 06:40 am     Treasured Connections: —Burton (who was an eagel scout) and Lill (the scout leader) —Darrah (the mortician) and Rupert (who has worked as a grave-digger) —Shawn (who is one of twins) and Trish (who has 9 yr. old twin kids) |
Lorry | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 07:47 am     Kalekona, you should have signed up... great thinking! I'm sure they have tons of down time where they could send out scouting parties that can locate possible sites to dig. I'm so excited thinking about it now I wish we could somehow get the message to them... hehehe Enigma, I love the connections... "Things that make you go Hmmmm!" There may be more to this survivor than we know! |
Lorry | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 07:55 am     Lilfair, I have a habit of reading from the last post up and didn't realize you had the idea of digging up the islands, until now... Great thinking... Wonder why none of them have thought of that? Chilltown and Rubertbear (love both handles), I'd hope some salt and maybe other spices would be included in that treasure. Also some cornstarch and powdered milk. Does anyone know if they are allowed to hunt the local critters??? There seems to be quite a variety of fowl on the island. They could also scavange for eggs... good source of protein. What happened to the list of edible plants that the Survivor site usually posts for the location? Or was that a one time deal and no longer provided? |
Enigma2 | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 08:09 am     To Lorry: I read that –on the first day of Survivor– one of the girls of Drakedom killed a pelican (w. Rupert's help). It was intended for food. However, producers had to inform them that the pelican was not edible (contaminants). This was not shown on tv. (I recall that many viewers complained –an earlier Survivor– when they killed a wild pig.) |
Enigma2 | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 08:18 am     Possibility for Treasure Chest (if Morgan can find it): They will find the Fab Five (from 'Queer Eye for the Straight Man'). They will show the Morganites how to prepare native herbal remedies for insect bites; how to constuct and decorate a 'lovely' shelter; how to create gormet meals from native fish, fowl and berries; how to create 'stunning' outfits from their used and tattered rags. And all will be well... |
Lorry | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 08:24 am     OMG, I remember that wild pig... hahahaha Enigma, I've been trying to find some information regarding the particular islands the two teams are on... Info on edible plants, fowl and reptiles that are able to be used for food. You seem to have some info that I've never read.. maybe you could start a thread with just info on the interesting things about the islands... would be fascinating... and give us a feeling of being part of the tribes. I'm plain dumb when it comes to how to use a computer... I also have a webtv which is easier for me to read the boards with... but again, I put the words "wild chickens" in the search line and you don't want to know what came up on my screen... it sure wasn't any info on the feathered variety. |
Lorry | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 08:28 am     Fab Five! OMG... the image in my mind is hysterical... Love those guys!!! Can you just imagine what fun they'd have with Rupert???? hahahahahaha |
Enigma2 | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 09:05 am     Lorry: Actually, I think I read the item about the pelican in tv Guide. Regarding other information: Just go to google.com and you can type in a search for just about anything. The limited information which I have was found that way. (the Pearl Islands had previously been used for a German version of Survivor.) (This Survivor is using at least five of the islands.) (One of the larger Pearl islands contains a luxury resort.) (the Pearls are just south and west of the Panama Canal) |
Needmylifeback | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 09:44 am     Due to its geographical positioning, Panama is the only place in the World, where one can actually see the sun rise in the West and set in the East. Would this little tidbit...mess up their coordinates in looking for their treasure???? |
Lorry | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 11:52 am     Hmmmm good question NeedMyLifeBack! Wow would that be a setback for sure! You people are making my old head spin with so many great things to think about. |
Prisonerno6 | Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 02:46 pm     "see the sun rise in the West and set in the East." Hunh? Care to explain that one? |
Enigma2 | Monday, September 29, 2003 - 04:06 pm     Sun rise in the West and Sun set in the East is just another of those Morganite misconceptions. (They think that the ['errant sun' is a clue to their sorry circumstances.) |
