Are you a Survivor Fan? (don't bother to read if not) - Beyond Tiki

Our old bands played together at Mardi Gras in New Orleans 12-14 years ago, and we hit it off. I came out and stayed with their manager and Lex and Lex's then-fiancee-now-wife for New Years one year. You can't find a nicer guy than Lex. But ever since Boston Rob, aka "The Godfather" (aka, "Treacherous SOB Traitor") sold him out, I don't care very much who wins :( At least with the All Stars show, they're not trying to make Lex be the paranoid *sshole that they were editing him to be on "Survivor Africa." He told me after that, "Why was I thinking it would be any different? They CAST me to be the evil guy! Tattoos and piercings, you know? Of course I'm The Scary Guy!" He may not have taken away the million dollars from that show, but he did return with a parasite that he had for many many months (the one that cost him the whole shebang, as in his weakened state of diarrhea and nausea, he couldn't stand on the pole in the hot sun.) Funny thing: when I was in New York at Easter, I was eating at an outside restaurant, when who should walk by but Ethan (? The one who won Survivor Africa? Dark curly hair?). My lunch companion said, "Ooh! Cute guy!" I turn around and said, "Oh! That's the guy who won Survivor Africa; he's been on All Stars with.....my buddy.....LEX! LEX!" (I felt like an idiot, like yelling, "Madonna! Madonna! It's ME!" Everyone stared.) Yep, accompanying Ethan there on St. Marks was Lex and his wife, and Ethan's hottie girlfriend! "What are you doing here?!" I questioned [instead of his being in Santa Cruz]. "I got kicked off Survivor last night, and I'm here doing all the talk shows for the losers! I was on Conan last night, and we did the Today Show this morning!" My whole day was filled with bizarro coincidences like that, but that was by far the most pleasant. So my vote goes like this: ANYONE BUT BOSTON ROB!!
