Happy Thursday!

I have my Tostitos, my bean dip and my Stewarts Orange and Cream nearby, ready to watch this week’s installment of Survivor: Tocantins. Random Thoughts as the episode unfolds:

• Did you know that Benjamin Wade was fired from his woman’s soccer coaching position? Seems he told the athletic director at his school that he was going to be gone for a week, but ended up missing school for almost two months, without a note from home. He’s not worried, though, because he’s off to persue a career in Hollywood, because his popularity on Survivor will open doors for him. And why not? It certainly opened doors for…um…you know, that other guy that became famous after Survivor…
• Two hot babes were voted out in the first two weeks of the season. Hope that trend reverses. They don’t have that many to lose.
• “She just insulted all of our intelligences.” Can that be grammatically correct?
• Erinn doesn’t know when to stop talking. Just like her parents didn’t know when to stop adding “n”s to her name.
• What the hell kind of animal is that with the flexible snout they show during the opening? Creepy.
• In each of his EW.com blogs so far this season, Probst has wisecracked about Sierra marrying a Survivor producer. Think she’s gonna?
• Oh, yeah…Debbie! Has she done anything noteworthy yet?
• Jerry’s having problems with the beans. Aren’t beans standard Army-issue grub?
• “We’re a force to be reckoned with.” As long as there’s not a challenge that involves catching fish with a net.
• I’d hate to be the caller in one of these challenges. The losing team always blames the callers and votes their ass out.
• Maestro looks pissed.
• Brendan and Taj off again to Exile Island. It’s tough enough not to look suspicious without Probst stirring the pot.
• “Winners always find a way to win. Losers always find a way to lose.” Wonder what his record was when he still had a soccer team to coach? Because his Survivor team sucks.
• Crap. The Tostitos are already gone. Do I bother making popcorn, or just grab the Fritos?
• “You’re like my assistant coach.” Aw, that’s swell, Little Buddy! Maybe he’ll let you carry his jacket at the next TC. I wouldn’t let myself get too associated with him, though. No matter what he thinks his standing is, he’s annoying a lot of people. You don’t want to be caught in that backlash.
• “He loves me.”? “Everyone can see it.”? “Maybe he’ll promote me”? Never mind what I said before. Good luck with all that.
• I forgot I had some chips and French onion dip. The popcorn and Fritos can wait for Lost.
• Brenden and Taj choose Stephen and Sierra as their Mini-Me’s.
• Sandy: “I know I’m a sex kitten this morning. There’s no doubt in my mind.” And the men all remember they have an appointment on the other side of Brazil.
• Sierra runs like a girl.
• Erinnnnn – hush! Your mouth is a shovel that’s digging a deeper hole!
• Jalapao wins! Erinnnnn will be going home, no matter what Jerry thinks.
• Or not.
• The owls are not what they seem.
• Maestro is still pissed. I’m concerned about his blood pressure.
• “I am so true that existing around people that smile evilly when somebody else is on their knees kills me.” Huh?
• “To me, it looks like she’s just here to lie and deceive and, you know, get ahead any way she can.” Unlike everyone else in the game, right, Assistant Coach?
• Brenden finds the HII by lifting up the backside of the skirt and seeing the hole.
• “I like seeing people cry when you crush their dreams.” I don’t want him to be my assistant coach anymore.
• Jerry: “I think the leader should be Brenden.” And Maestro’s smile turns upside down. Ha!
• “I basically told everybody with my eyes what they needed to get.” I think I laughed harder than Erinn did at that.
• Jerry’s thinking maybe he should have kept his mouth shut.
• GAH!!!!! UGLY CENTIPEDE!!!!
• First 2 votes Jerry; Erinn’s smiling smugly. She’s toast.
• Or not.
• Poor Maestro. Erinn’s still around, plus nobody wants him to be the leader. Been a tough day.
• “Jerry, the tribe has spoken.”
