Gawds know our host hasn't even begun to master it. Did you ever think Jiffy would turn out to be the merciful one? 'Six votes: that's enough. Mike, you need to give up your seat.' But this one (whose name I can't even be remotely bothered to remember) just keeps on hammering in the extra nails. After all, if we're going to crucify the poor kid, we might as well make sure he's stuck good and proper, because he's going to be carrying that thing until he graduates from college. Possibly longer.Ouch. Think Mike will run again after that little vote of no-confidence? Given that we've still got nearly a month of filming time to run, it's hard to believe these will be the only elections we'll see -- but that would be a serious blow to just about anyone's ego. When you're eleven, it might just about be your whole life...
I think there will be another election. They were already setting it up - Olivia (who was way too smug IMO) vs. Anjay again and Guylan vs. Mike or another red team person.

I just can't get over his little quivering-bottom-lip-stuck-out-not-quite-crying look.Hopefully these kids were prepared for/about these things happening for tv's entertainment.
But they do seen to be taking this stuff serious.

I think the elections came out about right.
What's the use of having a reality show if someone doesn't get scarred for life?But, just to safe, they might implant a GPS tracking device in him now. Someday the police are going to want to locate him. I'm going to save the media the trouble, and give him a title now, How about the Bonanza City Serial Murderer?
Someday we will see him on top of a watertower with a rifle mumbling...
There's not-Jeffy! *blam*

(Actually I don't think I can top Sunny. Not bad, Bun. But really, who here hasn't had the 'stand up in front of class end be humiliated' experience?)
Just come back on the train quietly kingfish. I promise you nice padding and rice pudding if you do.
Jello?151 Cherries Jubilee?
I'll even shape them like little starfish so the jiggle for you. lol
Here is your ticket. Please escort your companion to the 'reserved' area.
You may seat your companion next to the fat man where he can't possibly do any harm.
Sir, you may return to first class after your cherries stop "jubileeing"
Aaargh! How come I always have to bePresidentConductor?
Wooooooooohooooooooo! First Class!
Is Crazytown in the State of Confusion or Insanity?
Television may be watched in the club car.
You get free margaritas service with that, too, SunnyBunny.
Slurp
Wooohooooooo! Free margaritas! Are you going to be my personal bartender/bellhop?
I'd offer to share the El Grande's, but with you packing heat, I'd rather not be mistaken for a buffalo.
Looks like I get to ride in a private berth. The CrazyCabin. With wet bar I assume. Maybe Misto will bring the Cherries Jubilee.Announcement: The Party is in the CrazyCabin (pass it on). No Cereal Murderers allowed.
OK, on the Crazytrain to CrazyTown, talking that CrazyTalk, drinking those Crazydrinks and eating that Crazyfood (Misto?) with a bunch of Crazypeople.
What a life, it just doesn't get any better than this.
♪♫ Get on aboard, climb in, get on the crazy train! ♪♫Can I have a ticket, please? Do we get to shoot buffalo as we clickety-clack along?
I toldNewman and RedfordButch and Sundance about the schedule.
We shouldn't wander too far afield. See you in OT.
LAST EDITED ON 10-20-07 AT 10:05 PM (EST)Welllll I think Mike got what he deserved. He had no problem getting in that camera and ALWAYS saying how Greg didn't deserve the gold star. At first I thought his reasoning might be right. It wasn't until this last go around that I realized it was personal. He NEVER liked Greg and he voted that way because of it. I don't really know if the others were a little more aggressive in standing their ground this time or what, but Mike didn't get his way. Instead Mike reaped what he sowed. He wanted & needed votes to keep his seat, just like Greg wanted & needed that gold star ($20,000) for school, and Mike found out in a very public fashion how much it hurts to be rejected. Maybe instead of the possiblity of Mike being so called "wounded for life", in the future he'll not be so self righteous and think about how he uses power (both publically & privately) especially toward someone he doesn't like but whose life he can affect and/or influence. For Mike especially (Taylor's not even in the ballpark yet), I think it was a much needed life lesson and a good one.
Now that people see that they can be voted out, it's gonna be interesting to see how the council conducts itself and the power dynamics that ensue from those who lost the vote.
