Bring on the spoilers!

Last week I made money off my brother by betting on who would go home.  
Who is it going to be this week? Who is the special guest? Are the tribes really falling apart?

No spoilers here, but IMHO, the more girls gone, the better.

I’m just looking forward to more catfighting at the Ladies’ Camp. Looked to me like Young’un #1 (I don’t know their names, but she’s not Eliza) is furious with Not-So-Young’un.

The previews also make it look like some of the men are getting fed up with Sarge, but I try not to believe the previews. 🙂

You know how this works. If you want to know who gets the boot tonight, swipe the box below:

[SPOILER]  
Here’s the story,  
Of a man named Brady  
Whose misfortune wasn’t living with some girls.  
All of them who weren’t old  
Would like his muscles  
And keep him round till merge

Here’s the story,  
Of a man named Brady,  
Who was busy catching fish out on his own  
One of four hunks  
Hanging out together - three of which looked cloned

Till the one day when this Brady was not so mellow  
Cuz he knew his days were numbered; just a hunch…  
that this group,  
we call the fat five family…  
Will send the agent known as Brady home for lunch.

The Brady Crunch, (doo doo doo doo) The Brady Crunch (doo doo doo doo)  
That’s the way ole Brady left this bunch

- With apologies and full credit to the creator of this poem, a writer by the name of Trixiego on the SurvivorSucks forum.[/SPOILER]

Too bad for some people, but not entirely unexpected, either.

BTW, this spoiler has NOT yet been confirmed by Snewser, so it’s only 85% accurate. If that changes, I’ll post again.

I will continue to hope against hope that Eliza is gone, every week until she actually is. _I. hate. her. **HATE!** _

I’m not reading the spoiler and you can’t make me. 😛

From the previews: Who is the stranger who comes, and why does he make their life miserable?  
My guess? It’s Rupert. 😃  
Okay, I’m kidding. I have no idea who it is and what he’s going to do.  
It looks like there’s a lot of in-fighting in both camps.

On the previews they show what looks like one of the natives creeping around, so maybe the send someone in to steal some thing from each of the camps, like the machete or the flint.

I also saw one of the natives, and the ad mentioned him “visiting” the camps. They’ll save Rupert for a friggin’ reward challenge or something. I liked him the first time around, I even liked him the second. But there’s no reason for him to be involved in All Things Survivor from here on out. _sigh_

Yeah, that’s what I think. He may come in and “raid” their campsites.

He should also leave a note that says “When come back, bring pie.” In Vanuatuan, of course.

Someday, a Doper will make it onto Survivor. And “When come back, bring pie” and “18"IBDHJD” will mystify television audiences around the globe.

I’m working on it! I’m sending in another audition tape this go-round. And I have already decided that when I’m on the island, struggling to make fire, I am going to say, completely out loud so everyone can hear me: “You know what we need? _A 1920’s-style death ray!_”

I will also litter my conversations with “Hi, Opal!” And first hootchie that pisses me off will hear, “Oh, yeah? Well, I burning your dog!”

Well of _course_! And occasionally I’ll say, “My Uncle Cecil used to say …”

Yeah, I always feel a little bad posting the boot here. I know a lot of people have very little self-control when it comes to knowing.
