WHAT A JOKE!!!

They play this entire season up, race wars this and race wars that. Sponsors are dropping off the show, the buzz is coming back to Survivor and what do they do. After just 2 weeks they decide to end the race wars and it is back to the same old survivor.

I will give it to Mark Burnett and the creators, they really knew how to get the media in a frenzy, but not fully commit to the new premise of the show. They are now 2 fully diverse tribes with some Canadians, some whites, some Chinese, and some latins. I really contemplated pulling out of this pool and starting a survivor boycott. Then I realized we are back to normal and it is time for Keith to start losing again.

Show Highlights/Lowlights:

Can they draw out the separation ceremony enough. Holy shit, they take all there buffs off, pick a square out, that gets us 4 captains. Then they draft 4 separate teams. No that is not enough. They then crush eggs and look like cavemen that got a little to close to a T-rex in heat. Talk about a money shot. We get it this is a turning point in the game , blah blah blah....

Is it getting that bad that they have to do repeat challenges from other seasons, every one knew the girls would drop out first. The the big tough guys would get tired and one team would finally catch the other. The chinese did show there first weakness though. Yul grabs Cowboy and tells him let's fight it out, Hey Yul you couldn't choose someone else. That is like grabbing Pedro Martinez to be your ace and then asking him to get you to a World Series (sorry Met fans had to go there).

Tribal Counsel:

And the Jessica Simpson award goes to: Flica (Jessica). I can not believe I am relying on her to get me money. I could hear the chickens she let loose, running around in her head. Jonathan spoke with her about who to vote for and she just staired into space "I just don't get it." Jonathon was great when he said to Yul I spoke with her, told her how I feel I guess we will see if it worked. He did not even know what happened with the conversation.

Nice twist with vote first then you can save the person. Think Yul is regretting telling Becky he will save her if she is in danger? Now he would look like he was lying if she gets most votes and he does not use the idol for her. Was this the plan with the idol all along or did the producers do this once Yul told someone he had the idol? Conspiracy theory thrown out there, now discuss.

Please see the links section.

My Uncle Bobby who can take credit (if he wants to) for getting me into this whole blog thing, has a site that is a be all end all of blogs ranging from movie reviews (great source to get an idea for that movie on the weekend), sports team reviews (Mets postseason posts to come, Giant weekly recap and Rangers recaps coming soon). There are some family blogs updating us on what has been going on in our family but for people that do not know him there is still plenty of posts for stuff not related to my family. I would say it is 75% movie's/sports/TV reviews 25% family stuff.

If interested go to Gallagher Gazzette on Links page. It is a great site. Just remeber it is a family site (unlike this one) so keep the comments clean or they will be taken off.


Wow what an eye opening Tribal council. Billy just shocks the world, and Jeff the look he gave was priceless.

I had to keep rewinding to that cringe humor moment when Candice said "we love you" and Billy just looked over like a puppy dog just brought home by Jennifer Anniston and he said "I love you too."

It reminded me of my paperroute days when I had the hot girl in school on my route. Collection day she said I love Newsday, I said I love you too. She laughed uncontrollably said not you, newsday and went back in the house. Talk about a night where I needed a full jar of peanut butter (comfort food Keith, comfort food not what your sick mind is thinking.

Tribe happenings.

Latin lovers:

Decide to the throw a mission to get rid of Billy. As a Monday AM quaterback I must agree with the move, he would have won zero physical challenges and now they do not have to sit anyone for all the challenges.

Chinese-Americans:

I thought they were Chinese not Indian. By the fifth week they will all look like that own a 7-11 but they will not have headaches. I guess stereotypes are there for a reason. THEY ARE TRUE. Chinese=smart at brainteasers. That guy was making A's out of the mast casting a shadow on the island that did not show as he walked east while tapping his head and rubbing his belly and then surprise he found the idol.
Keith you are looking good this year my friend.

Canadian-Americans:

How great will it be when they see they were so excited to come in 3rd knowing the Latins were doing the obstacle course like Corky learning to drive (let's just say the 5 hour course took him 24 hours). Then they make the great move of sending a Chinese person to get the idol. Great job Canadians!!!!!

White People:

F'ng pretty boy stirring the pot. Lets see let's sleep on the sand all night and when it rains get drenched or take a couple hours to make a raised floor to stay dry? I guess hooking up with the ladies makes him lose brain cells. He is now my least favorite player this season.
