Dalton 1271 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Beef Jerky Spokesperson" 10-20-01, 07:19 PM (EST) "Ep. 3: "The Gods Must be Angry -- Sisyphus, The Dung Beetle"..." LAST EDITED ON 10-20-01 AT 08:02 PM (EST) This is one of the Challenges for Episode 3 wherein MB incorporates the "features" of the local environment on Survivor: Africa. Same as he did last week with the Cow Blood drinking Masai ritual. Sisyphus, the Dung Beetle is an insect native to East Kenya. The MALE Dung Beetle rolls a ball of dung (not his; say a ball of Cheetah dung) much bigger than himself in search of a FEMALE! (This sounds more like a "Reward" challenge to me!) LOL! If SHE is impressed with his ball...they mate and bury the dung which will be food for the larvae once they hatch. There are about 12 pics over at Survivorfever.net showing various members of both teams pushing huge balls; if somebody (hint) would go drag them over here because I'm not good at that stuff. One particular pic seems to show Lindsey falling on her face during this Challenge...maybe she is "accident prone". PS. If the huge ball the contestants are pushing in the pics is really made of "dung" --- I don't WANT to know what kind of African animal is capable of that!!!   Top

These ARE some BIG balls o' sh¡t. . . and I am glad to drag the pix over for your consideration: Not just dungball pix, but also the brainiac, Lindsey, and her attempt at leg-breaking. GT What's brown and sounds like a bell? DUNG!   Top

Lindsay isn't wearing the same top when she kicks the log and when she is lying on the ground. So I don't think she gets hurt kicking the log. I think she does have some kind of cramps when she is down.   Top

scorpio 25 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Beauty Pageant Celebrity Judge" 10-21-01, 12:50 PM (EST) 3. "RE: Ep. 3: "The Gods Must be Angry -- Sisyphus, The Dung Beetle"..." The dung beetle race is pretty much a given. The trick is going to be speed AND steering that sucker. This may even out the tribes in terms of Boran actually getting it together and winning, whereas the Geriatric4 and the Mallies are on flip sides of the team coin. The youngsters seem to be reacting more negatively with each passing moment to Frank's edicts... left ...left I said.. whereupon Linz flips him the bird... In terms of Lindsey - I suspect the ailment to be the African form of Montezuma's revenge. Her problem is going to be recovery .. she may be able to get by temporarily, but the effect is draining and the more she eats or drinks without meds is going to make it worse and sap her energy. I grew up there (well a little southwest of there) and can remember the feeling all too well. I sure would take a bone break over that gut problem. I can see her hanging around for a while but eventually having to head out for treatment if this is the case.   Top

I wondered about the shirts. . . and I've been wracking my brain, trying to remember what they let us hear at the end of Ep. 2--I seem to recall her on the ground and talk of "do you think it's broken?" Anyone know how that really transpires? And I read something elsewhere about someone buckling from dehydration--that would certainly be a result of a massive case of dysentery, wouldn't it? Does that mean li'l Lindsey is a good candidate for ouster? (nahhhh--they wouldn't have shown us all this, if it was that easy. . .) GT   Top

"RE: Ep. 3: "The Gods Must be Angry -- Sisyphus, The Dung Beetle"..." wonder what those "dung" balls are actually made of. They look kinda like those foam movie set rocks. Akward but light. Hell Maybe I should try to get a Survivor production job, I am a master of Paper Mache'   Top

TaurusII 53 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Hollywood Squares Square" 10-22-01, 11:54 AM (EST) 6. "RE: Ep. 3: "The Gods Must be Angry -- Sisyphus, The Dung Beetle"..." I had the same thought on one of the other boards. They look painted like rock, but could be as light (or as heavy) as you want (and still be tricky to roll where you want it to go). )O   Top

wendyp 2081 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Roller Coaster Inaugurator" 10-22-01, 12:54 PM (EST) 7. "VId Caps" If you go to the posting titled "ep3 Vid Caps" you can see great shoots for the challenge and others that Bunlger has provided. There is also a shot that shows what looks like a couple of Boran falling and getting rolled over by Samburu. It is a good observation on the Lindsey shirt color in the different pics. these are the things that help everyone "spoil".   Top

Loree 8616 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-23-01, 00:12 AM (EST) 8. "RE: VId Caps" I notice in a couple of the vidcaps of Lindsey lying down she has her hands on her stomach. And Kim is touching her head. Nobody is examining or touching her ankle or foot. If she had hurt herself kicking she would have been holding her foot/ankle not her stomach. She is in some kind of stomach pain like cramps. I don't think it is serious or Frank and Linda would not be making fun of her. Frank calls her Barbie and Linda comments on her not being a strong as she thinks and going down.   Top

IceCat 17415 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-23-01, 03:48 AM (EST) 9. "I Agree... It's Cramps" Remember Lindsey's rather inconguous announcement of impending period in EP1? I'd bet that Ms. Lindsey is prone to severe menstrual cramping and without the moderating effects of a medication like Midol (I bet somebody gets a product spokes-person deal out of this) her cramping will near incapacitating. Frank's rather dismissive comments seem to support this hypothesis as well.   Top

George Tirebiter 2982 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Howard Stern Show Guest" 10-23-01, 01:11 PM (EST) 10. "RE: I Agree... It's Cramps" I hope you're not saying she's still suffering from her period. . . she WOULD need some pity, if hers lasted that long! and even if it did, I think cramps would subside long before it was over--never suffered, myself, but I think they happen more as a prelude and in the first day or so (you experienced crampers, feel free to set me straight.) Plus, I can't imagine her saying a broken leg would be easier to take than a period without Midol--THAT would be truly pathetic! I think it's much more likely she's suffering from improperly-sterilized water or dehydration. If she ingested (or bathed?) in that sludge, we'd be talking about amoebic dysentery, which might not be bad enough to take her out of the game (think of vacationers who tough it out 'til they return home to see if a doctor can clear it up) but would certainly add to the dehydration and make it increasingly difficult to compete. You can clear up a mild case with lots of yogurt/acidophilous, but I would hope they'd be prepared to dole out something more serious. . . GT   Top

MakeItStop 1098 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Politically Incorrect Guest" 10-23-01, 05:10 PM (EST) 11. "It's NOT her period" Remember she said she just started her period on Day 1. We are now on Days 7-9. Most women's periods last between 3 and 5 days. And to answer GT's questions, yes, you can have cramps during your period. GT, you are a very, very lucky girl!   Top

dabo 26942 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-25-01, 00:27 AM (EST) 12. "RE: VId Caps" Maybe the tree kicks her back (dumb thing to do, kick a branch) and she was wearing her bikini top under her shirt which was removed in order to examine a wound. Just a thought. "If the race of man should be left naked upon a desert island, we should become extinct in six weeks. A few individuals might linger, but in a year would become worse than monkeys."

PepeLePew13 26134 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-25-01, 01:04 AM (EST) 13. "RE: VId Caps" LAST EDITED ON 10-25-01 AT 06:19 AM (EST) hey dabs... your comment made me run upstairs and pop the video back into the VCR -- I checked to see whether it showed what happened after Lindsey kicked the tree, and the tree definitely didn't hit her back. There were a moment after the kick where she looked at the tree then turned around as if there was no use for the tree. I looked at the preview again and she's definitely on the ground because of dehydration (or sunstroke) as she's curled up with her legs up while holding her stomach and Kim P's fanning her hands as if she's cooling off Lindsey. "What's wrong with her?" "Oh, it's gonna blow up, dude... in 5 minutes, dude. It's gonna hit the (bleep) ceiling." "It is?" "Oh yeah."

Since I started this.....I'm going to give my opinion. The Dung Ball is the Immunity Challenge and somehow the Boran's win it!!! That's it. Thanks for listening. Dalton   Top
