just want it to be known I've become a bigger fan of Brownroach (JP) and Mistofleas (MB) than I am of the show.Stop it, I'm getting a bigger head than I deserve! (you're just too sweet acawap!)
That being said, and since I know how much you both like Pelican stories (ie BRs 72 pt font message in another thread), somebody please tell me what the big deal with killing the pelican was?
Actually, the big deal about the pelican was that (and someone really smart correct me where I'm wrong here) a reporter (I think it was ET or TV Guide) was there during the first few days of shooting. Rupert and Christa killed a pelican and made it into a stew (or were about to make it into something) when the Survivor doctors stepped in and stopped them since pelicans are commonly known to carry parasites. The reporter reported the killing of the pelican.
Some have continued to speculate that neither Rupert or Christa can go until we've seen this pelican killing happen. BUT it happened during the first few days and thus would have been shown to us in the first episode. We obviously didn't see it so MB must have deemed it "not worthy" and culled it from the episode.
That damned pelican has played Moby ##### to my Ahab this season, so a bunch of us have been having fun making pelican jokes.
How's that?
And I've decided that I'm going to be on Survivor 9, and hire the two of you to manage me!
Fine, but you should know that while I may be cheap, I am decidedly not easy. (shut up BR!)
