    The Survivor 9: Vanuatu Discussion Thread

    Sorry for the mis-understanding...I just meant for the Buckeyes to beat Michigan Sat (the northerners)...with my well wishes for a fellow Ohioian (Chris), thought it would be okay to through out the moral support for my Buckeyes.

    The Survivor 9: Vanuatu Discussion Thread

    Mark my words, Chris is going to make it towards the end. Has he made dumb comments, oh yeah, but he has also done some things I probably would have too. I have this feeling he makes it to the final 3, by winning immunity this next week it forces the girls to show their true alliances, and then...

    Any honeymoon recommendations?

    Congrats Jeffrey! I just happen to be getting married on June 24, 2005 myself! We decided to get married on Mauai on the beach and then spending the honeymoon on Mauai, Kaui, and Oahu. Should be a great time and can't wait for June to get here. Just put the deposit down, and although it's a...

    When did "Jeopardy!" become "Jeopardy! for Dummies!"

    I wondered that too. Figured he just didn't want to show off. He could have easily gotten the new 1 day record. 17 days and counting!

    When did "Jeopardy!" become "Jeopardy! for Dummies!"

    Ted, Jumping around on the board serves another purpose. Besides searching for the daily doubles, jumping around confuses the other contestants as to what the category is. But you can't do it slow either, just name the category and go. Makes the others think about the category and not the...

    When did "Jeopardy!" become "Jeopardy! for Dummies!"

    I have not been on the show, but my understanding is that the buzzer becomes live as soon as Trebeck is done reading the question. If you hit it too soon, you are locked out for a sec or until the question is finished being read. So skill on the buzzer becomes essential. About the daily...

    When did "Jeopardy!" become "Jeopardy! for Dummies!"

    Alright guys, until one of you can prove your smarter than Trebeck, take the personal assults somewhere else. Trebeck is VERY intelligent, and I actually got to meet him once. He retains a high percentage of the facts on the show (I believe it was 70-80%). If you don't like his commentary...

    ****Sopranos Season 5 Season Guide (Spoilers)

    You are right Philip, that still shot is diffently NOT from the previous episode. That's from Tony's basement. And Christopher is wearing what he left their apartment in. I don't think there's any reading into this, it's exactly Christopher telling Tony. I'd love to have seen Tony's reaction...

    The Ongoing Survivor 8 All-Stars thread

    Well, after reading all these comments, it's time for mine. Shii-Ann's comments about glass houses is so true. I mentioned this pages back about Lex being pissed after he had done the same thing to Ethan. He said it isn't about friendship, it's about strategy...but when he gets the boot, it...

    Deadwood: "Bullock Returns to The Camp"

    This show is awesome. Sunday night with the Sopranos and Deadwood back to back is just great tv. I really like the Bullock and Al characters...they really pull you in. I've been raving about this show to friends, coworkers, and family...and others are joining on board. Hopefully enough keep...

    ****Sopranos Season 5 Season Guide (Spoilers)

    Jean, although you could be right...I think it's safe to say that Vito was playing the flute. The sounds and expressions tell the tale. Vito was using the tickets to get on Finns good side so he wouldn't tell anyone. He could deny it if it ever came to light, but the security guard might spill...

    Finn went into work early because he was already there in NJ. He didn't want to go all the way back to NYC, get a couple hours sleep, then get back to the job site. He told Meadow he was just going to go to work and crash because the girl had shown him where the key was to the office. Now he...

    New Lawn - Help Needed

    Here's my $0.02, take it for what it's worth. 1. Although Nov wasn't as cold as it could have been, it was too late to be seeding a yard. Have you called the builder and asked about this? I would push back hard on them, because they should have waited until spring. 2. You said the ground...

    Couple things...I didn't comment last week about Lex getting the axe, but didn't anyone else find it funny that when Rob came to him and said although we're friends outside of the game, I have to vote you off and Lex got pissed, it wasn't but a few weeks earlier that Lex did the same thing to...

    Comparing AI, Nashville Star, and Star Search talent

    It was brought up in another thread about the talent lacking on American Idol compared to Star Search and Nashville Star. It was suggested to start a new thread, so I thought I'd do just that. I totally agree...Star Search's 3 winners circle people blow away any of the AI people. Matter of...

    I found it interesting that one of the women (Kathy?) had on glasses and was trying to help get the fire started. The sun was out and yet no one thought, "Hey, let's use those glasses to get this fire going". Come on!!!!!

    Best place to honeymoon in the Caribbean?

    John, I'd love to hear where you'd recommend to stay on St. Johns? I've snorkled at St. Johns while on a cruise, but never stayed there. Is there anything else you'd recommend to do while you are staying there besides snorkling?

    Self Defense Items?

    Hey Mike, unfortunately no. I've been so busy with work and helping with the Boy Scouts that I haven't had a chance to do anything pertaining to martial arts. Which means I'm getting rusty just sitting around! LOL! I think the closest I've gotten to martial arts is watching a movie where it was...

    Self Defense Items?

    First, let me say I have trained women and police officers in self defense techniques in the past and feel that I have a fair bit of knowledge on the subject. However, I don't claim to know everything, and these are just my opinions. I know you said that a gun is out, and I'm glad to hear you...

    Survivor: Pearl Islands

    Tim, sorry to say but at first she said no it didn't, but when Jeff pressed the issue she started pausing and him-hawing around and her body language said she had. I watched it a couple times and I would tend to go with that they did hookup. Now wether sex was involved or not, only they know...

    Survivor: Pearl Islands

    During the reunion show, Jeff asked Jon about the Nicole hookup and Nicole pipped up and tried to skirt the issue, but you could tell that it probably did happen. Burton also got the hookup after the show it looks like.

    Survivor: Pearl Islands

    Could be Mike Slade...I really don't remember. I guess I do remember Jeff showing off Africa or Australia locations. In any case, I don't think any of us are going to be missing the first episode.

    Survivor: Pearl Islands

    I think the reason they didn't show previews to the All Star edition is because although it's been rumored who's on it, CBS or Mark Burnett hasn't officially said yet. I think they were just wanting to keep it a secret a little longer and then the trailers for the first episode can all center on...

    Survivor: Pearl Islands

    Hanson, Great comments! It's amazing how they find these people that can't do what they are supposed to be able to do in real life. I'm glad fellow Eagle Scouts and Scouters alike have chimed in too. If I was in Lil's troop, even if it is a volunteer position that you don't get paid for, I'd...

    Survivor: Pearl Islands

    I wonder if Lil makes it take to the final 2 if Burton will ask her about breaking the alliance and basically making her look bad? Not that I think Lil can make it that far, but it makes you wonder after his comments. I'm sure this is just another case like Rupert, where you get blindsided and...

    Average Joe (merged)

    Yeah, poor girl...got to live in a mansion, go on expensive dates all over the US, and face time on TV every week...yeah, she got totally screwed to the max. Was it a no win situation whichever way she went with picking? Yeah, but to say she got "f'd over with this show" warrants no basis. Just...
