Two episodes in a row, let's do this!! But first check out (If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To by Weezer. They played it at they're last show, pretty catchy song.

17 are left, who will be voted out tonight?

Starts off IMMEDIATELY with them saying Ben is the next to go, so I guess that answers that question.

Good show, see you all next episode.

Ha, just playing.

Ben is proving useful with starting a fire, but I don't think people can stand to keep him around. Even Russell doesn't know what to do!!

And now we have some insight into the Galu tribe, which was absent from the last episode... and they're doing yoga!! This tribe right now is so much better off than Foa Foa. I don't know why Shambo is pissed they're doing yoga, what's wrong with that? I love yoga. I just got Wii Fit Plus, it's only $19.99!! As long as you already have the Wii Fit board. Someday I'll have a living room to hook up my Wii in... someday as in 9 days!!!

Russell's new shorts are pretty cool...

Ooh, another physical challenge, let's go Ben!!

Ashley just got dragged out, hahaha. Ben sucked that one up, wonder if he was scared of getting kicked out again. Do something though!! What, Laura splashed Ashley to get away, haha, this is great. Wow, Ben is just sucking it up out there, but makes it up by blocking Predator Russell from getting the Foa Foa guys.

Foa Foa thinks they have it but they don't, and Galu gets it right, they win again!!! This is not good for Foa Foa. Last season though, Jalapeno went into the merge down and still came up on top. The prize was comfort or function and Predator Russell took comfort, his idea was, "If I make the women happy, we're gonna be happy." Haha, nice quote Predator. You took candles and towels over a shovel, lantern, and a tent. Way to be a man. You failed.

I want to see the Toy Story double feature in 3D. Please.

This is interesting this season, no exile island, rather the winning tribe sends a member to the other tribe to 'spy.' Really though, these are building relationships for the merge, a great chance for Foa Foa to pluck people away from Galu to build their team. They failed with Yasmin, even though she didn't really give them a chance, but Shambo seems like someone they could flop.

I think it's so funny though that they're pumped about finding the immunity idol and Russell already has it. This guy, I don't agree with him, but he's got a plan in place and it's working.

Jaison said he is going to walk away if Ben is still here after tribal, even though he says he has no intention of quitting. That doesn't seem too smart.

So what's up with only one challenge per show? What happened to the reward challenge, and then the immunity challenge? They're bundling them and I'm still paying the same (free) price!!! I want a refund.

I wonder if they gave everyone new swimwear for the sole purpose of getting something else on Russell besides his boxer briefs?

Shambo is looking for the immunity idol and plays it off while digging by the tree, "Wow, look at all this great fire wood!" Everyone in that tribe is clueless. Russell was in that same spot and when asked what he was doing, he said, "Looking for the immunity idol." HOW DO YOU NOT CATCH ON?!!

I'd be scared walking through the rain forrest of Samoa at night on the way to tribal cancer. There's probably panthers and anacondas.

Wow, this tribe is messed up. Natalie is cracking me up, sitting in the middle of Ben and Jaison just leaning back, wide-eyed, staring straight forward.

Ashley has been on the chopping block every show. So Ashley or Ben? My guess is Ben.

Ashley... Ben... Ben... Ben... 3-1, looking good.

Ben!!!! Alright, nice pick. Let's get Russell off next. Actually, why don't we take a look at Galu? They're tearing it up, I don't even know the names of most of the people on that tribe. Maybe next week (tomorrow). I probably won't get that one watched until Monday or Tuesday, so see you all then!!

So I said I probably wouldn't be doing a blog, but half way through the episode I couldn't take it, I broke down. So I'm going to try and keep this going, but this time next week I'll be homeless, so I'm not sure how that works with DirecTV and all but I don't think they'll let me hook it up at the local Starbucks and catch my recordings. Maybe I can convince the houses I'm bouncing around in to record Survivor for me. And Heroes, Top Chef, How I Met Your Mother, and The Office.

39 days, 20 people, one survivor...

First off, Somoa looks awesome, I would love to go there. It kicks off with a challenge where the purple team, Gulu, lost the first challenge. This yellow team is interesting, there's Shambo, an ex marine who's named Sharon and I guess resembles Rambo so she's had this nickname since 'nam or something like that.

The other tribe, Foa Foa is crazy all because of one guy, Russell... this guy is what drove me to blogging but I want him out quick. He makes secret alliances with "his dumb bitches" and an older lady. He singled out the girls, called dumb short blonde, dumber long blonde, another dumb young girl, and then the older lady. Then he goes on to tell the whole tribe about how he lived right next to the levi's in New Orleans when Katrina hit and that he was in his house at the time. First off, what idiot who lives right there stays in the house when the entire city evacuated. He talks about how he lost his dog and he stayed on the roof for two days until he was rescued. He then tells the camera that he never lived in New Orleans, and has never had a German Shepherd. Then!!! This is where I label him crazy. He goes and dumps ALL the water, to "weed out the weak ones." Wow. Wow. Then he burns someones sock!!!! This guy is an idiot. Haha, he's a multi-millionaire, an oil company owner who doesn't care about winning the money, just wants to show how easy it is to win this game. He says he is the worst one to trust and should be the first one to go. Yeah he should. Interested to see how this pans out though....

Gulu wins the immunity challenge and it looks like they are a team and should get along pretty well. Foa Foa on the other hand, after winning the first challenge, seems like they'll be falling apart, especially with Russell.

Marisa calls him out for individually talking to everyone and now he wants to kick her out cause "she's dumb", he is the dumbest!! Now he's talking to everyone, ooh I hope they vote him out, Russell!!

The tribe has rallied to vote out Ashley and Marisa, I think Russell or Mike should go, but I'm afraid it will be Marisa unless there's some crazy turn....

Marisa...Marisa...Ashley...Ashley... 2-2

Marisa...Ashley... 3-3

Marisa...Marisa...Marisa!!!!

Now Russell think he's got this game on lock down, I'm sure a few more days out there with him and people will realize this.

Next week looks good, someone gets kicked out of a challenge and guy tackles a chick!!! Tune in... tomorrow already? Don't know if I'll get to watch it til Saturday or Sunday.

I'm finishing up the Red Wings vs Ducks game, then it's Survivor time. The Ducks killed the Sharks in the first series, an 8 seed beating a 1 seed, now the Ducks are facing the Red Wings, the 2 seed, and took them to game 7, tied 3-3 with 3 minutes left.... until Detroit scored to make it 4-3. Boo! There's 6.4 seconds left now and they're about to have a face off in Detroit's zone, hopefully Anaheim can pull something off. Their goalie is out but that doesn't really matter, they just need to win the faceoff and shoot it in. They win it, get a shot off... nope, Detroit wins. Bummer. DirecTV has this new feature which is amazing. On any sports channel, you hit the red button and it brings up a scoreboard for every sport. You skim through them and if you see one you like, you click on it and it takes you to that channel if it's on TV, amazing. I used it again just now to see that Orlando is up by 3 on Boston with 1:46 left, so I'll watch this. The red button works on other channels too, like on the Weather Channel if you press the red button it gives you your local weather instantly. I love DirecTV. The Magic just hit a three, they're up by six. Hopefully they force a game seven. The Celtics just literally threw the inbound pass away, the Magic miss the shot but get the rebound and can kill more time, wow. I like the Magic better, but it'd be cool to see the Celtics play the Cavs, even though they don't have KG, it'd be a good rematch. A good rematch that would be won by Cleveland in four. Maybe five. An Orlando fan just made a sweeping motion.... they're down 3 games to 2 buddy. The Magic win, but the Celtics looked like they gave up waaaay before the end of the game, game seven in Boston. Now back to reality, Survivor: Tocantis. Last week Debbie was voted out and it's getting towards the end here, the season finale is this Sunday! Let's get right to it. Only five are left, who will be voted out tonight?

J.T.J. just let Coach know who wrote his name down and Coach took it as, "Wow, they mounted a counterattack against Debbie to save me. It would have been easy to vote me out, I know a valuable player." He still believes the game is still being playing with truth and honesty, so J.T.J. is still on Coach's good side. He just called himself Coach Wade again, I'm gonna Google this.

Wow, interesting, check this out.

Biography
Benjamin "Coach" Wade (37)
Hometown: Bolivar, Mo.
Occupation: Soccer Coach

Benjamin Wade is known by many names. As the head women's soccer coach at the Southwest Baptist University in Missouri, he is called "Coach Wade," but he also goes by “Maestro” due to role as an artistic director and conductor of a California symphony orchestra. A skilled musician, Benjamin was traveling the world playing the trumpet before most kids could even spell "trumpet."

Wade sees coaching as another form of manipulation. "You have to find out what everybody wants, what everybody needs, what they think they want, what think they need and then you have to be the person that solves everything." He knows these skills will be valuable in the game of SURVIVOR.

If Benjamin was asked to wear just one hat, it would be that of "Renaissance Man." Aside from setting the world record for the longest solo kayak expedition on the ocean (an amazing 6,132 miles), Wade has also been attacked by a tiger shark, stalked by a jaguar in the Amazon and has been bitten by a piranha on his right hand. To say that he is a Type A, Alpha male, who likes to control the environment around him may just be an understatement. Coach's dominant personality will be a force to be reckoned with in the game.

Benjamin is single and currently splits his time in Bolivar, Mo, and Susanville, Calif. His birth date is September 18.

See that ladies? He's single! Who wouldn't want to be with that guy? Haha.

J.T.J. says they plan on sending him home next, so sad. J.T.J. better win this season, he has been dominating. Haha, Jeff says, "J.T. having no trouble AT ALL getting through this maze. Coach having no trouble following J.T."

J.T. and Coach are the only ones working on making a pole to get the sand bag, I hope he wins it. He should easily win this challenge, he got the pole then the two sand bags in two tries, three sand bags in three tries, he DOMINATED!!! Coach says he is not going to make fire or eat food, only meditate on exile, dumb, but I love this guy.

J.T.J. on Erinn, "People are so dumb in this game, they talk way too much in this game. It's gonna hurt her and not me." Maybe Coach wins immunity and Erinn goes out this week?

Haha, that's funny, Stephen and J.T.J. haven't seen themselves in a mirror in over a month, they freak out in front of the mirror. Then during their feast they talk about possibly voting off Erinn instead of Coach, and taking Coach to the final three!! I love that, but that means Mrs. George would be going after Erinn. I guess she'd have to sometime.

Coach looks confident he'll win this challenge. All five have passed the first 15 minutes and move down to the second foot hold. Coach looks very comfortable. All five ares still alive after 30 minutes and move on tot he final foot hold, but Erinn drops out trying to move down. She may be voted out. Stephen is out. Mrs. George is out. Only Coach and J.T.J. It would come down to them. 50 minutes elapsed. Coach is struggling. And he lets out a battle cry, haha. And he's down, J.T.J. wins!! Coach fell to the floor, says his back went out, but he turns down medical.

This commercial really gets to me. Only because the guy doesn't tie the bag when he throws it in there. Really? Come on, you wouldn't throw a bag of trash away without tying it up, even if it is a bag of cash.



Coach has some sweet argyle socks. J.T.J. and Stephen tell Coach they're voting out Erinn, but Stephen still is undecided, come on dude, you haven't really even done anything to get this far. He has been piggybacking J.T.J.

"Men drop what they think is a pebble, woman see a boulder." - Benjamin "Coach" Wade, hahaha.

Coach wrote a poem!! That's so rude, everyone in the jury were pretending to sleep while Coach recited his poem. He's a good guy, what the hell?

Here's my prediction of the votes,

J.T.J. - Erinn
Erinn - Coach
Mrs. George - Coach
Coach - Erinn
Stephen - tough one, and the only one they didn't show of course....Erinn

Let's see who really goes out. There's a huge bug on J.T.J.'s shoulder!!! Two votes to two votes.... and Coach is out, damn. J.T.J. is really thinking now, what the hell Stephen? That's the first time J.T.J. hadn't known who was going out. No worries though, Erinn is next, unless Stephen does the unthinkable and votes J.T.J. out. One episode left, this Sunday at 7.
