I predict Lex will make final three. Why? Team Africa. Three men from Africa who were close enough during the competition to make a lasting friendship afterwards. Comrades in arms. If all three get to the merge, they will be a solid voting block. But this time it will Lex, not Ethan, in the end. 'squeek'

Can I ask what is wrong with Lex?? This is the first Survivor series I will probably actually watch, and Lex is my fave from what I've seen so far... <blush>

Not a thing, Buggles, don't listen to the boo'ers. He's strong, he's smart, he's tattooed. What's not to love? Lex rox and always has!

Hey Buggles....There is not one thing wrong with Lex...On his last Survivor outing, he was in Africa..The water was full of elephant poo. It was much worse than the water that Rudy drank..Lex came home very sick with a stomach parasite...He was sick during the last couple of episodes of his show..He came off as a bit testy, and mean..He's really nothing like he was shown..He was edgy, and kind of scary...He lives in my town and he is a kind and nice person...When the local school needed band instruments, Lex got some famous friends to donate them..Last weekend he was at the Little League tryouts with one of his sons..Just another dad rooting for the kids..He's a great person, husband, and father.. GO LEX}

Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex, Lex...... Lex , and Colby are the guys I'd want to be stranded on an island with...Kind, resourceful,understanding, smart,inclusive,and wise about how to live on an island...Boston Rob, and Tom are the two I'd least like to partner up with..

I'm so sorry he got carried away to the point of trusting the master <> himself. I love this guy. And he's so right about how wealthy he is. He has a wealth that Rob has no concept about. Go with peace Lex!
