Brunch with CK in Hoboken and a Strange Statement

Since Xmas fell on a Sunday most companies observed Monday the 26th as the official day when Jesus was born into the barn in the holy city of Bethlehem. Now since the romantic stories about the birth have been passed through time we now know that Mary did not wear a vibrant blue robe but rather a robe made from a brown burlap material. Joe was probably not around for the birth since Jewish law at the time did not allow it and there was probably a team of three Jewish mid wives to help her have the holy baby. He may have passed out a few Cubans if that side of the world was engaged in trade with the mideast.

But back to CK. So JM and I go to Hoboken to pick CK up. She waited outside her building for a tad more minutes that she was probably expecting since JM, despite me having a navigation system telling him he was wrong, insisted that he knew how to get to her house quick. It was not until we almost drove into the Hudson River that he let go the dream of telling me how to get to her place in Hoboken.

Once in the car we drove the length of Hoboken a few times since no one wanted to make a call on where to have lunch. I had to make the call and picked a place where if by the off chance Artie Lange happen to be out and about, we would see him and I could tell him how funny he is. He is on the Howard Stern show and I love his humor. But lets get back to the elephant in the room or the car as the case was.

We picked CK up and she had with her what she called a non Xmas gift, but rather a thank you gift for all that I have done for her or so she says. Now CK and I do not exchange gifts because for some reason I actually always thought she was Jewish even though she is not. She is what they call a Chixa (sp). Hard to exchange an Xmas gift with a Chanuka gift. Like comparing apples and oranges. One comes from a jolly old bearded man with magic deer flying in the sky, celebrating the birth of a baby that was born to rule the world, and the other a bunch of people in a cave huddling next to oil hoping to stay warm while escaping persecution. Like I said oil and water.

So hind sight being 20/20 I now know the gift. A fine aged Glenkinchie scotch from the low lands of Scotland. A rather well thought out gift or non gift as she calls it but well thought out. The package is also perfectly wrapped in a classic pale gold color wrap that does not scream holiday but rather arrival. It says I am here. Kind of like Dan Akroyd in trading spaces before he was out on skid row.

Now by now most of you that are reading this are saying what a great person.... Here is the story twist. The man gift has been placed in a pink victoria secret gift bag. However, one does not know that it is a man gift at this point. So as CK gets into the car which is a man car and sits in the man seat within this man car and as I sit next to a man friend in his man seat next to me, she squeaks out... I have a gift for you here, raises it sheepishly so I can see it in the review mirror for a nano second and then places it in an empty man seat in my man truck next to her in a man seat.

I did not think much about it during our meal. We ate, laughed, and talked about the holidays. Actually CK was obsessed with reading the NY Post. Apparently JM and my conversation was not up to par for the night. We left the establishment, looked around for Artie and then hopped back into the car. It was then we were faced with the elephant in the man car. It was not long after we drove off that we were back at CK's place in Hoboken with the view of the Empire State. She made out with JM in the front seat as they said goodbye. The noise they were making was like that when you get to the end of the slurpee and you are sucking it up with a straw. She then reminded me that my non gift was on the back man seat in a girl bag. We parted. Now my mind was all consumed by the pink VS bag. Why would CK give me a gift in public in front of friends in a pink VS bag. To this day the thought confuses me.

Did she think I was gay? If so why give me scotch.

Did she think I was a gay Scotsman?? I think she knows I am Irish.

Did she think I was a gay Irishman? If so why not give me the new VS thong?? If I were gay I would have loved something like that.

Did she think that I was gay but could not find a man and so she gave me scotch so I could ply my date with liquor so he would be intimate with me??? If so, why not just give me the thong?? We both would have loved that...I think...

Maybe she thinks the rig is too much man and wanted to make it more woman.

Maybe she wanted me to think that she bought something for herself from VS and I was supposed to drink the scotch and show up late at her place that night..She would be waiting at the top of stairs. I would look up the 18 flights to her apt and see her in my thong with a teddy. She shouts (she is up 18 flights) you're no Elihondo (her bf from Brazil) but for tonight just speak to me in Spanish, treat me bad, and call me tu mamacita.

If she said that I would have replied.
Si usted me piensa que usted va a tratarme eso gravemente y lo tomaría y acaba de es su juguete del amor, entonces usted piensa mejor otra vez. La tendría entonces preguntado si ella validara el estacionamiento y me habría ido.


I would have hoped she would have said something like, what took you so long sailor?? Whatever the case for her using that bag CK will take to the grave most likely. She may claim that it was innocent, the only thing she had etc but we all know the truth. CK is a cruel woman from Hoboken

Xmas 2005

I hate to brag but I got everything I wanted for Xmas, every single thing I asked for which is very odd for 39 year old guy asking for things but I got every thing I asked for and more. I even got one thing that I forgot to ask for but I wanted. How do yo figure that. Of course I gave a great xmas too.. Now there is one thing, one factor which I hate to admit but my nephews did not come up this year and had they my xmas may not have been that good since they would have gotten everything. So lesson they need to learn is visit for xmas. My lesson is this..If I hear they are not coming up, get the list out, say it loud and say it proud... So you say what did this old kid get. Well I got the alive chimp wich is a chimp that moves and acts and looks and sounds like a real chimp. I got a ladder shelf that I forgot to ask for, I got call of duty 2 for PS2. I got the fleeces and flannels I wanted socks and underwear and all of the other little stuff I asked for. I will not tell you those things cause you may think some are gay like a cake dish display but you have never had my cake so you would not understand...All in all it was a good xmas. I cooked which really cost me an arm and a leg but well worth it.. I started with assorted fruit and cheeses. Goat, smoked ghouda, and very sharp NY horseradish cheddar. A liver pate and assorted crackers and garlic slices. A fresh ceaser salad was the next course. Main course was filet mignon and filet of salmon with aspargus tips in a bernaise sauce. A mushroom hunter sauce and garlic roasted potatoes. An aged port wine was served with cake and the crowd was happy.

Amazin Race Finale

Another finale night on CBS. Three teams racing for the million dollar reward at the finish line. The three teams are the Linz, the Weavers, and the Bransen families. I have to say I am rooting for the Linz boyz. They were fun the whole race. At the end of the race they will have all the families there clapping the winning family into the winners circle. The teams are heading to Montreal Canada. Bransen, Linz, and Weaver is the order leaving after the last leg. The are each taking a variety of different flights. The Linz bro and the Weaver boy were racing and the Weaver boy tripped them both up. Of course the Weaver mom said it was Linz boy that man handled her son but the mom is a freak and both daughters will probably end up pregnant within a year. Praise the lord. Linz and Weavers are on one flight and the Bransen on the other. Once there they have to find the underground city of Montreal. The Weavers are acting like strange to Ted the driver. Meanwhile the Bransen family have still not landed. They have to find the CDC capital.. They come to a detour... Slide it roll it. Now rolling it does not mean sitting back and smoking a fat one. Wouldn't we all be winners there. One is the ice game with the stone, the other is rolling logs.. Weavers are in the lead with the Linz Family behind. The Weavers are doing slide and the Linz family are doing roll. The Bransen family ran right past the clue. The Weavers have finished their detour and are now on to the Bucky Fuller American Geo Dome. Bucky was the best. The Linz family are not doing the roll. The Bransen family is. Linz are doing the ice thing as well and are just leaving for the expo as the Weaver family arrives. Weaver are now heading to Port J where the next clue is. Bransen family just finished their task as the Linz family gets to Bucky's place. Meanwhile the Weaver family is opening up a big lead and now they have to perform with flying trapeez group.. The kid did it on the first swing and now are heading to the 1976 Olympic stadium. The Linz family are doing the circus thing. Bransen family are arriving at the Bucky place. Weavers are the first to the Olympic stadium and are on the golf carts looking for the clue. Meanwhile the Bransen family have caught up with the Linz family and the one brother cannot complete the task. All families are done and are searching for departure times in the am.. TheWeaver family got the last time. At this time the Bransen family is first then Linz and then Weaver. All three families are inthe top of the tower searching for the flag somewhere about 700 ft below. The Weavers have not spotted it yet and the other two families have. They are heading to it while the the Weavers pray to God for help. Will God help them????

God did help them a bit but the first two teams are in cars and heading there. Another detour..Ship or shoe. Hop a ship and find a flag. In shoe the have to play Cinderella and find a chic to fit a shoe out of 100 chics. The have all chosen ship except for Bransen. The Linz are in first in a boat trying to find the main sloop. The Linz family is there first and grabbed the flag.. They are now headed to Queenstown and they are going to head up the heavy Niagra river to their next clue. The Bransen family is struggling with the shoe thing but they finally found the woman and appear to be in second place. The Weavers are sending the boy up the mast of the boat to get the flag. The kid dropped the flag but really is a champ. Performed well on all the tasks. The Linz family has arrived at the boat launch and are on the jet boat. Followed closely by the Bransen chics. They are heading into class 3 4 rapids straight on. They have to put together a map and then run to the finish line. Here we go..........

Who can put the puzzle together the fastest. Bransen and Linz neck in neck...The Weavers may all but be out. First one out of the map is .....The Linz family and they are the first to the finish line as all the other families clap them on. 25 days, 60 cities and they are the winners. Bransen family a close second. I am happy for them since they were the best sports along with the Bransen. Weaver's bring in third place. They talk about their father, the father the lord, and each other. So until February 2006, the Amazin race is no longer.

Survivor Finale

I will be missing parts of the finale since my favorite show West Wing got moved to Sunday night. However it is 30 mins in and survivor is just starting due to the late lame football games.

We are down to the last four. Steph, Lydia, Rafe, and Danni. They are getting a special meal and saying thanks to the Mayan Gods for their good fortune. Immunity challenge is up for grabs. The most complex maze ever in survivor history. They need to collect pieces of a puzzle and the winner gets immunity and a spot in the final three. They are running through the maze... The winner is ......RAFE..So now we are in tribal council. They are talking about the chicken sacrifice that was offered by the mayan people. Rafe refused to eat it but the girls thought that to waste the chicken would be wrong. Of course after the ate it the heavens opened up and it rained and the thunder was crazy. The Gods have been stirred. First vote Lydia, Danni, Lydia, Lydia.... She is gone and not missed already. Down to Rafe, Danni, and Steph and they are the final three and tomorrow the face their last immunity challenge.

The three woke up to the screams of angry animals in the jungle, maggots in their food, and a general malaise they blame on the fact they ate the sacrificial chicken. Today they hiked a spot and burned pics of the others in the game that had fallen, They always do this. The views were beautiful from the tops of each temple.

Back and the three are up for the final immunity. Rafe gives it back up and it is up for grabs. They have to balance on a wobble platfor with the help of two ropes for the first hour, and then they give one up. Two hours the second and then they are on their won. The girl Danni is so rail thin now. After they let go they all fell and grabs a spot against the side with the one rope. Down to the last minute and their hands can no longer touch anything. Rafe is the first one out by touching the pole. 2 hours and 5 mins and Steph is feeling it. Dannie looks not affected. Steph's back it hurting her and hse is falling down the pole. She is done. Danni won the final and is in the final two. Rafe walked over right away and said I release you from any agreements. You take who you want and I have to say what a great move that was by Rafe. Class player.

Back at the camp Rafe and Dannie are talking about what a great job Steph and it is pretty much a love fest right now. Probst is asking questions that are basically deconstructing Rafe and Steph. We are now down to the vote. Danni is the only one to vote and lets see who she votes off. Voted off is ......Rafe..Danni is pinning herself in the hopes that everyone hates Stephanie...Final tribal council is tomorrow night and it is between Steph and Danni.

Last morning and it is the two ladies. Day 39. The two girls are talking about how great it is being girls and they went swimming in their pool. They are not worried about food they are relaxing. After swimming they started burning everything like they always do and Steph thinks it is a sacrafice but they will both be dead soon since they dissed the Gods. We are now at the last tribal council and this is the one that each other player gets to question their candidates. They get a statement answer questions, and then vote. You cannot be too cute and too cool either. Danni did ok kind of non committal but Steph seemed more honest in her approach. We to to commercial.

Bobby John First ...How proud are you Steph for the way you played. She said she take nothing back. Danni same question but she is taking the safe anser.

Gary....Why should I vote for you.. Steph...Got seperated and I voted you out. Danni same question and she said that she vote Gary out cause of her new alliance with Rafe.

Brandon threw up a cram pie to Danni and Steph a hard one...missed this whole one since I was feeding the cats

Lydia..Steph.. I did not do you wrong, and you did me wrong.. why..So Steph said sorry and Danni said I tried but at some point I had to turn against you.

Cindy..Remove one person from voting..Danni said Rafe since he is voting for Steph. Steph said Bobby J since he was first.

Rafe... Dannie.. this is way too much to keep typing. Rafe is a schill for Steph and he let her off the hook

Judd is bitter and he hates both and told Danni to go to confession and Danni said I do everyday. He is even angrier to Steph. Soooooooooooo........................

So we have the closing statement to the jury, Steph saying she was sorry, that we all came into win and we had to turn on some of them. Danni said she came into the merge, she said she hung low and Steph and Rafe controlled the game and she told them that those two were responsible for them being there.

The vote tonight is for th winner...... Probst got the vote and then we watch Jeff run out and down again a hilicopter picks him up. He is flying around the site and now into LA where is live to the Survivor pad and into te sound stage. He is wearing the same clothes....

Wow Dani looks great...Votes are Danni, Steph, Danni, Danni, Danni...She won the million. UNtil nex time

25 Years after John Lennon

It is 11pm and 25 years ago in 15 minutes we first learned about the death of John Lennon from Howard Cosell on Monday Night Football.

Cosell

This, we have to say it, remember this is just a football game, no matter who wins or loses. An unspeakable tragedy confirmed to us by ABC News in New York City. John Lennon, outside of his apartment building on the West Side of New York City, the most famous perhaps of all the Beatles, shot five times, rushed to Roosevelt Hospital, dead…on…arrival.





I was in 8th grade at the time John was shot and I remember hearing about John Lennon being shot and killed when I woke up for school that Tuesday morning. My friend Dave H was a big Lennon fan and I called him to let him know. He thought I was kidding him and we met for our walk to school and he was just nasty the whole time. I did not realize it at the time but he was more advanced in his thought process than I was at that time. It would be a few years before I would begin to feel on that type of level. Things I do remember about John Lennon. The Beatles were done before I was able to understand but as a child I spent a lot of time with my grandmother for some reason. Either being a helping hand, a handful, or an utter annoyance I seem to be around her so much. I think the reason was because she liked TV as much as I did. Her TV was always on which I now really only understand and really respect. She probably had the TV on MNF when Howard actually announced he was dead. Anyway there was one thing that I will always remember too was that she was also as selfish with what we watched as I am in my old age. She had two shows that you watched no matter what. Merv and Mike. The Merv Grifith show and the Mike Douglas show. Everyone left when she took control of the TV except for me and man did I reap the benefits of that. She would make us a tray of shortbread or some kind of cookie and a pot of tea. She would place the tray on this crappy vinyl three legged leg rest and the show began.

Getting back to John Lennon he seemed to be on Mike a lot. Him and Yoko were always making love calls and other performance art type things even though no one knew it was performance art at the time. John and Yoko would make random phone calls and tell people that answered that they loved them. This was during the war and during a time of total chaos in the US. Mike was amazed and goofed but the message was the same the whole time.. I love you... I love you man.. I love you stranger... The act simple, the call cheap, but the message very moving and deep.... So to all of those out there reading this... I love you... I love you man... I love you stranger.....Pssssstttt..Pass it on and pay it forward or whatever we do today...Oh thats right. No one thinks about world peace today

Apprentice Thursday

Back after the double fire last week and the Randy the Humpty Hump guy and the other girl are in the apartment waiting to see who survives. Donald walks in and tells the two they are in the final two. Rebecca and Randy, the R&Rs and the two are so lame. I really do not see them offering much. George and Carolyn are taking them to dinner...They shake hands and we are to the final too. I can see that each of them lack any kind of substance. Hard to be an actor and a business man at the same time. You end up with Trump projects.

Rebecca: Yahoo all comedy event and throw it for and aids event. Capital edge..Toral, Chris, and James.

Randy: Outback steakhouse autism charity softball games. Marshan, Josh, and Mark.

In the board room they are met by their teams and they are ready to go to their events and get ready.The two head off in their Maybecks while the others follow in SUVs. Both are handing out the jobs but Rebecca is doing it in person and Randal by phone. The comedy event venue is a nice spot in the city. Right off the back you need to think about valet parking. On to Randal and the ball game. Marshan is hot. They are at the cyclone stadium and it was very short time dedicated to it. They cut back to Rebecca and she is meeting with the event people like she should to get a feel for what they expect. They are coming up with ideas for the yahoo VIPs. They are going with purple and white from Chris who is doing a good job..Her team looks to be trying to help her win.

Randal is meeting with the group that is going to let them know what they want. Josh was coming up with great ideas and Randal was being way too administrative. The woman doing the event loved Josh.

The other group met with Joe Piscopo for dinner who is the MC. Chris and James are doing a good job and Joe P is a freaky little man. Rebecca has sent the boys out to smooze while she put together the events of the next day.

Josh and Marshan go to Q104 to meet with Jim Kerr. Randal's team is letting him make calls and helping him out 100%. So they are at party city and they missed the meeting with Jim Kerr. Like the one guy said this was a big mistake. Josh and Randy are going to the park to meet with outback steakhouse. Randy does not seem comfortable meeting with the sponsers which is going to hurt him. Now Marshan and Randy are up in the glass tower and one dude is doing all the work. Randy looks a little overwhelmed and the outback dude laid it on the line get out there and help that guy build our stuff. Randy is now putting out chairs with his boys.

Rebecca met with Jake Glasser whose mom and family died for aids and he is going to speak at the event. His mother is the wife of Hutch whose family died of aids after getting a transfusion. Rebecca is meeting with the group and they are expecting a lot. They are very tough. Toral asked a really good question about what they expect and they did not want a full court press for donations. The approach has to be much more subtle. SO far positive. Joe P called and said his union will not let him perform. That was so staged.

Weather forecast Rain for all

Survivor Thursday

With Judd mumbling that everyone was a scumbag he headed back to his job opening doors in the city. Five people let tonight looking to make it to the final four.

Tonight's story opens with everyone freaked out by Judd and his words. The ghost of Judd haunts the camp and Cindy knows many have lied to her. Now it is the girls and the boy girl Raif. They go to get the reward directions and there is a car key. Someone is going to win a new car. Of course the car is a brand new Pontiac. And they get a BBQ feast with rum and fun and food. Here we go..First leg has three winner...and the winners are Danni, Cindy, and Steph to the next leg.

Next Leg first two to break the tile. Cindy on. Steph on. Cindy and Steph to solve the puzzle and win the car. Cindy won the car..Wow what a twist..No one who has won the car won the game. So he is giving her the opportunity to give up her car and give cars to everyone else. Four cars come up fast. But Cindy picks the car screw the other four, and then takes Steph on the reward.

Cindy and Steph are driving to their reward. Steph is such a phoney and she plays it so well. She claps and is so happy for Cindy but she is pissed. At the site there is meat and fruit and corn and rum and all that make life happy. Back at camp everyone else is shocked since they expected Cindy to placate everyone and win the car. Back at the food fest life goes on filling their bellys and their souls with food and conversation. Ready for bed the Steph brings up who will go out next. Danni is marked for release by Steph. The plot thickens.

Cindy is back at camp and talking about her car and everyone is getting angry. She thinks they are very happy with her. But they are ready to slit her throat. Probst has called everyone in for the immunity challenge and he asks her about the car and she is not sorry for winning. Todays Challenge they are attached to a rope with their hands and feet tied and locked. They have to get the keys and enough rope to get to a pole to release their flag. First flag down wins the race. Steph and Cindy are ahead throught the first two locks. Steph was heading to the end but ran out of rope. She does recover and wins the immunity. The first time she has ever won

Danni is putting her cards in Raiff since Danni is marked. Raif is acting like a girl when it comes to this car again and he is now going to Steph to vote out Cindy but the girls are talking about ousting Faif too. Raif keeps sitting with the talking people.

We are now at tribal council and Probst has tallied the votes...Person voted out as followed......Raif, Cindy, Cindy, Cindy. She was really smart not to give these pricks a new car.

Amazin Race

In last weeks race there was no end resting place and they are all freaking out. Everyone needs their beauty sleep. The Lindz family really got screwed because their camera man drained the battery on their car and they went from having a major lead to being the last to arrive. An announcement was made by Phil about the incident and that was it.

Bransen family and Weavers are the first and second families to arrive. They have to travel about an hour to Turtle Ranch. Godlewski girls are wasting a lot of times since they do not know how to read a map. The Lindz family just passed them. Meanwhile the first two teams are about half way to their next stop. The Weavers are fighting over gas. I hope the Linz family wins since they are the most fun. The first team to arrive finds it is closed until tomorrow morning. All teams will be caught up as of tomorrow morning. All the teams are talking about the Weavers. Everyone hates them and they hate everyone. I think it is because of the mom.

So I am cutting into the Billboard Music award during commercials which has been very lame but now I am watching R.Kelly with a pool full of young girls at a remote location. He never stops, go R go.

Back at 7am with the crew and they are running through field to get a start time. It is now a caravan through the fields and they come across an Indian in the field standing next to the clue box. Detours. Get a covered wagon built and ride a qarter mile. The others have to build a teepee. Two doing Teepees and two doing wagon. Right now the Teepee builders are doing a better job. The Weavers are doing the best. The Godlewskis do nothing but fight. The Linz family is now back in first.

They are on a golf course finding colored balls. The girls with the pervert father are now in first and the Linz fam are in second. Weavers in third and Godlewski's are hird and fourth. They are heading to their next pit stop. The Godlewski girls are fighting way too much and the one is walking which will really slow things up. The Weavers are now in third place now after finding their balls. It seems that the Godlewski girls have not found their balls. .. Bransen family are the first to arrive. They get a Buick Lucerne. Linz family came in second. Good for them since they really got screwed by their camera man. The Weaver family ende up getting pulled over by the cops but he gave them no ticket. They are also running low on gas and it looks as if it is a footrace to the end. Winner is, the Weavers. They go the last place for the finals. The Godlewski family are the last to arrive. They seem to also accept the fact that they do not get along with each other and they really did not expect that it was going to change while on this trip. Funny

Apprentice Thursday

Adam was let go last week, so the one team lost one more lady. Four people are left and this is usually the episode saved for the interviews etc. I just figured out who Randal looks like. They guy from the humpty hump video but his real nose looks like the fake nose that dude wears. Wow first commercial is 5 minutes in. Gonna be a long show but will give me time to watch Eve. That girl is smoking.

Today they meet the Donald at NASDAQ. They are going to be working with Microsoft to promote Live Meeting. A sharing application for companies. They are both arguing over who will be PM for this but there are only two in each group. Cap Edge met with the production people first. Should prob meet with Microsoft. Felicia is weak and is sending mixed signal...second commercial break again 9 minutes later at 914. Back now and Excel thinks the actor they chose is doing a horrible job acting. BAck with Felicia. She has complains about everything. Then says she is fine and then says no its ok. Felicia is ..... whacked. We are back in commerical at 921. This is just a commercial fest.

Back from commercial Alla and Felicia are putting the commercial together as well as the other team. I have seen bits of both commercials but not one whole one but we are back in commerical again at 930. Back at 934 and I just realized that this is a 28 minute show with 32 minutes of commercials as well as many more commercials inside.

First team up Randy and the other chic, The commercial did paint a picture but seemed hokie with... Felicia and Alla.. Graphics came across too fast and was bad. Randy is going to win another won. And they did and they get to go on a boat tour of NYC. Felicia and Alla are at dinner and she is crying. What a baby. She is always saying how great she is but she really is not all that. On the cruise they got their wives and BFs to come along. Rebecca's BF was a little freaky looking. Like Bif Hendershot of the 80's. Randy's wife looked like his mother. Into commercial again. and back again at 948.

Felicia is now trying to figure out to screw Alla. But she talks way too much and is going to talk herself out of the job. Here we go. A fight has started. The fight is going on and on and on. He fired Felicia and then he fired Alla afterwards which I think is wrong.. Very disappointing tonight. :)

Survivor Thursday

With NFL so so Gary Huckaboom voted out last week there are 6 left in the fight for the finish. Back at camp the morning after tribal and people are looking a little nervous but they end up doing cartwheels to keep themselves occupied. They meet probst for a survivor auction. Beef Jerky sold for 20 bucks. Three choc cookies and milk. Mosquito netting, a cheese steak, a clue in the next immunity challenge. And then from no where come family members. Judd won the bidding and gets to see his wife at camp... By the size of her nips either she was happy or it was cold down there in Mexico. He got to pick two people who would get to see their family back aet camp as well. He picked Cindy since sh loaned him money and Steph. The others got sent to the old camp by themselves and all they could do was wave at their loved ones.

After commercial break the couples are back at camp. They are spending time with each other for now and not doing a group thing. Back at the exile camp Raif and the other chic are talking about Judd. Meanwhile night settles and the group with the family members are making plans as well. We just hit a commercial break about 9 minutes after the last one. I smell the show putting the sponsers over the viewer.

Morning breaks over camp and the family members are helping build fire. The exiles come back and the family members were still there. They saw them off in a boat and are back to the daily grind. Judd and Lydia are talking about a coup. Here we are at the immunity challenge. The challenge is a flip tile stand and move on. You cannot go back onto a red tile. As they do the tile thing Danni who bought a clue gets to use it to switch with someone with a lot of tiles.. Stephanie and she is angry. Long story short Dannie wins the challenge and cannot be voted off.

At camp they are all chatting strategy. At the tribal council Probst is trying to stir everyone up. Dannie your smiling, what was it like seeing loved ones for some of you, what is going to happen with alliances etc etc. They are ready for the vote and the scary music plays.... Probst will now read them off...Either Lydia or Judd.... Who will it be.... voting is as followed....................Judd, Lydia, Lydia, Judd, Judd, Judd and Judd was pissed..Told them he hopes they get eaten by crocs and called them a bunch of scumbags..taking the game a little to serious.
