Michelle ma belle!

Michelle ma belle
These are words that go together well,
My Michelle,
Michelle ma belle,
Sont les mots qui vont très bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble.

I'm pretty sure this is French for "the tribe has spoken". However I doubt the Puppet Master was singing this tune. I don't see him as a Beatles guy; I see him as more of an AC/DC guy as he was definitely "Shot Down In Flames" by our favorite mortician Darrah. A close second was Sandra trying to give herself a nose job. Sandra, if you make it to the merge just find yourself a nice plastic surgeon! And captive Rupert didn't take long to become the most valuable Morgan ever. So now onto the Pick The Bootee Game. Five weeks into this game and only 26.5% of you remain! Gosh echogirl why do you have to make this game so difficult? Because I'm wicked! They don't call me Jen E. Fairplay for nothing. So I will add a little sarcasm as we bid farewell to six more players. Amongst the casualties is emergency PTB Back-Up Host ejm92. Yep echogirl asks him to stand in for her and then has the audacity to snuff poor ejm's torch. I know I'm such a meanie. BTW ejm92 I'm going to need you again soon! Or maybe your ghost? The tide also rode in and took out Rain Crow, Rebel Crown, Froggy446688, wolfinthedark, and GTmike. RC made it to the Christy boot last year, so I hate to see her go so soon! Now was it Rain Crow or Rebel Crown? Well I'm pretty sure one of them did! Froggy446688 was a promising rookie, and wolfinthedark was MIA, and I don't know what was up with GTmike who picked Lil for the First Confessional. GTmike did guarantee himself the fourth worst score so I guess he deserves praise for this.

Our big score for the week? topped everyone with 9 total points. That's 4 + 5 (weekly top score bonus points) for the mathematically challenged. GuessItRains was the only contestant to pick Jon for the First Confessional. After episode 4 I thought he was the obvious choice for FC, but only one person agreed! GuessItRains jumped from 18th place to a tie for 4th after episode 5. Congratulations ! DoodleBug and Lolly finished second for the week with 3 points each. Overall, LeftPinky managed to hold onto the top spot, but saw her lead dwindle from 7 to 2 points after taking a penalty and finishing with (-6) points for the week. DoodleBug is now in second, and bubbastan dropped to third. GuessItRains made a big jump and is now tied for 4th with sleeeve. I must mention sleeeve this week because for the third week in a row he has taken a penalty, and for the second week in a row he ended up with zero. Zero must be his magic number because it always moves him up!

In the Battle of the Red Ink, defending champion forehead wrestled the lead from djandy. It's most likely temporary as he had to use ten more picks than djandy to get there, but Kings are generally well-jeweled and stubborn, so please feed his ego for the time being! Besides stranger things have happened in this game, so it's not out of the realm of possibilities that djandy or echogirl, who is currently in third place, will blow it. But I doubt it! So it looks like the Pick The Bootee Game will soon have it's first Queen Of Red Ink!

This is my first season here and I'm glad I've made it to the final 17. Maybe it's time to play more bravely this week.

Congrats! Quite an accomplishment in this game!!! Now after reading LC's shocking new twist, I may have to come up with something for next week.

If speculations have any merit, there would be a Ghost team. See my Loser Lodge game. You could have our members competing in a game you set which does eliminations the same way as in Episode 7.

Sounds confusing to me!

I'm confusing so there's no doubt in my mind that it's confusing. Ah well!
