Debbie | Here's to Hoping Jaison Blindsides Russell
October 26, 2009

Tonight was full of firsts- the first time a challenge was stopped and not completed and the first time in 19 seasons when Jeff was truly scared with the physical condition and safety of a cast member.

Russell’s tears said it all. He broke my heart. When you are in the game, the last thing you want is to be pulled from the game for medical reasons. When Joe was medically removed in our season, we had just merged. It makes everything you are going through so real and you realize how fragile your body is and your existence in the game can change in a moment.

Russell S. was my one of my favorites; therefore, I was sad to see him go. He is a proud man, a hard worker and always tried to lead by example. Watching a true leader crumble was painful. Knowing the Survivor family and medical team, I feel confident they made the right decision and hopefully, Russell will quickly recover.

Rain and misery was the focus for tonight’s episode. Solid rain and only 15 days into the game will make anyone contemplate quitting.

The Dragonslayer once said “Say the truth and the truth shall set you free. FREE!”

This blog will be short and sweet. The truth is that with the exception of the idol played at tribal council this was a very humdrum episode for me. I yawed big dragon yawns. Lit a fire outside my lair with my hot air. Perked up my ears at the immunity challenge because I had fond memories of that one in Brazil.

The reason why I like to quote other peoples words is that it saves me the trouble of eating my own. So here are my quotes for the episode. Thought I’d try something knew this go around.

Monica: At the reward challenge said “These donuts are ridonkculous?” Are you serioncolus? Who says that nowadays?

Shambo: After seeing the hidden immunity idol which is a symbol of Samoan culture involving the ocean’s bounty “It’s a samurai sword!” I have one strapped on my back that I took from the last knight who tried to slay me. Want to see it?

Russell: “This could be a million dollar idol” No it couldn’t because no one likes you.

Is Russell really a troll? I mean he found the idol under the bridge!

Russell is playing an amazing game! I have to give him credit for his keenness on the game of Survivor and keeping his mind constantly focused on his next move. How in the world can this guy keep finding idols without a clue? Do I agree with all of his lies and statements- NO, but this guy is a warrior (in Coach terms). Weekly, he amazes me with some new twist or move. Coach, did you notice Shambo called the Immunity Idol a Samurai Sword??? I know you loved that!

Natalie, you go girl! Killing a rat for the tribe to eat was a great move. You gained respect and made the guys take notice of your efforts. I am so proud of you.

Laura is still kicking butt. She won yet another individual immunity challenge. She better continue her winning streak or she will be gone. Her facial expressions during tribal were hysterical. She was furious! Her last statement about Russell, “He just stirred up a lot of hell,” shows me she is going to have a difficult time controlling her emotions. Laura is so strong; therefore, she will be targeted. Watch out, Laura!
