Bad TV – Continued

I wish I could explain my addiction to Survivor. I know it’s silly, but there are so many underlying lessons in the playing of the game. Nevermind that most of the lessons are about how to lie, cheat and deceive people who you later need to remain loyal to you - kinda like how your employer treats you. And even the producers are trying to dupe the viewer because we only see so little of what actually happens in the game, and even then they spin it to hide the true outcome – kinda like how the major media tells us (or not) about what’s going on in the world…

Anyway… So far, my predictions have been spot on. And I continue to stand by them. Why Rob & Amber didn’t boot Rupert last night is a mystery and I think a possible fatal flaw, but I'm confident they’ll find a way to survive.

Amber may win the million, but Rob deserves it. He is the ultimate puppet master. He has played his game his way from the beginning. People may have hurt feelings (his one flaw - other than that horribe accent), but he has remained true to his plan. And it’s worked. I’ll be totally shocked if he’s not sitting next to Amber in the end.

If I could choose, I’d want Rupert to win. But you know what they say about nice guys…
