I Hate You, But I'm Sticking With You Anyway - Survivor

I always wonder what people on Survivor are thinking?
Why do they make goofy decisions? I assume it's
because they're tired, they're hungry, and they've
been isolated from other human contact for days at a
time. But, Criminy, from my position on the couch, I
see them being so stupid!

For instance, last night was the merge of the two
tribes. This offered the perfect opportunity for
Casaya to get rid of Shane The Moron once and for all, because
the man is losing it big-time. BUT, for some reason,
Survivor just moved the LaMina tribe to Casaya's camp
instead of creating a neutral camp for them. Big
Mistake! LaMina became instant interlopers into
Casaya's camp and, duh, Casaya closed ranks. I would
have liked it better if Survivor was going to do it
this way, if they had said that for the first week all
tribe members of LaMina had immunity. Because
Survivor-producers just rang LaMina's death knell
otherwise. Casaya members, who had been so
anti-Shane, suddenly became protective of each other
when LaMina moved in and they even let Shane "lead"
them in their decisions. They've all lost their
minds.

I still think that Terry and Sally have the best game
play and I still believe that somehow one or both of
them will be in the Final 2, even though they're both
from the old LaMina tribe. I have my fingers crossed.

LaMina Nick was voted off last night. It'll be
interesting to see who goes next - it could be LaMina
Austin, I don't see it being either Terry or Sally (of
course, see my prediction above), but it could be
Casaya's Bruce, who isn't playing a very solid game
right now because he's too waffley between the
tribemates. I would love to see Shane go home, but
he's playing a pretty smart game right now FOR HIS
TRIBE, AT THE MOMENT. It seems to be what they want
right now - but it seems dumber-than-dumb to me in the
long-range picture because he has to remember he could be
facing all of these people again in the jury and he's
forgotten that.

I think the only two that I see NOT playing the game
day-to-day are Terry and Sally.....or else the others
have been really sneaky about their game play.

It's always interesting to see the group dynamics
change when the merge finally happens.

Anybody else see the rice fall right out of Shane's mouth? ewww. and hee.

And, I had to laugh when they gorged themselves on rice when

they saw LaMina coming - hah! LaMina was bring a feast with them

and Casaya was so concerned with not sharing their rice they scarfed

it all down and weren't able to do justice to the food from LaMina!!!

Hilarious stuff, that. And? bunch of stupid, selfish assholes.
