BINGO! I'll say she slipped! Lindsey, the original dumb blonde stikes again! "Any kind of a merge, if there was one!" Well, isn't that all we need to know? There is no merge. The Futurizmo spoiler may be right.

2. "How Ditzy Lindsey?" |
Okay, hold it. All of the players are under secrecy agreements which if they violate them could mean owing Burnett et al. more money then they could have won had they won Survivor; add to that the fact that Lindsey does know that, whatever the reason may be, Burnett is making a question of it whether there will be a merge in episode 7.An audio of this statement would be most helpful; what I mean is this: Having mentioned the merge did Lindsey then simply continue with the statement, perhaps with a slight pause, in the realization that even mentioning the merge at this time might be something she would later regret? That said, I do find the words "any kind of merge" quite interesting. How many different kinds of merges, particularly after the 3-3 switch, could there be? "If all machines were to be annihilated at one moment, so that not a knife nor lever nor rag of clothing nor anything whatsoever were left to man but his bare body alone that he was born with, and if all knowledge of mechanical laws were taken from him so that he could make no more machines, and all machine-made food destroyed so that the race of man should be left as it were naked upon a desert island, we should become extinct in six weeks. A few miserable individuals might linger, but even these in a year or two would become worse than monkeys." (Samuel Butler, "Erewhon")

3. "RE: How Ditzy Lindsey?" |
One of two things here, she is either really stupid, or she is much more intelligent than what any of us give her credit for. I am leaning more towards the first, and that she realized what she had done and tried to cover it up. I feel sorry for all you blondes out there, this one here fits the stereotype, and makes the rest of you look bad

Taken at face value, this could be a clue that there is not a merge this week as normal. Lindsey would not have had any more information of the game except for communication with the E7 Bootee. (this weeks) If she does not know if there was a merge or not, then there would be no merge this week. She would not have had any communication with the Jury which are people voted off in E8 and above....

5. "RE: Did Lindsey slip?" |
I wonder if Lindsey even knows what kind of merge takes place? MB might have been very careful to keep information from the pre-jury players. I know Jessie has said she has no idea who won or got near the end. MB may have told everyone who makes the jury to not tell the others what type of merge there is. And they may have only known who some of the people who are kicked out early are, but not the reasons behind the bootings or the order. The jury is kept separate and there is no reason for pre-jury players to know the details of the rest of the game. It would also make it easier for MB to control what they say if they don't know anything about the second half of the game.

I think she makes the same "merge, if there is some sort of merge " mistake AGAIN. Howard the Duck also asks her if she knows who won and she says "Don't make me cry!" Could that be someone she REALLY dislikes? Like, who, Frank? Or Kelly? It wouldn't be anyone she liked, like Brandon or Kim Pee. Or even Tom. She didn't know Mamakim or Ethan. Hmmm...
Keep checking Lindsey's interviews for more forthcoming spoilers, I betcha, I betcha.

7. "RE: Did Lindsey slip?" |
>At least I would have
>made it to any sort
>of merge, if there was
>one.I think people are making more of this quote than they should. Lindsey is watching the same show we are and knows that the timing of the merge is in question. Without actually hearing the interview, it is impossible to get a sense of whether the "if there was one" part seemed like a cover or not. Either way, it seems to me that if this is an indication of anything, it is that there is a merge "of some kind" and it comes soon. If Lindsey is sure she would have made any "sort" of mere, it would suggest the merge occurs when no tribe has less than 4 (otherwise the GXA might have had to go after one of their own and Lindsey would know she might be at risk then). I think this quote can be taken as support that the merge happens in E8 rather than E7. Just as likely, however, it is that Lindsey knows the merge is in question and was just answering accordingly. It is interesting that people read so many different things in the same little sentence. Without more information, it is just too difficult to treat this as tending to mean anything in particular because it can reasonably be read to mean opposite things.

8. "RE: Did Lindsey slip?" |
She also, in a confessional, on the last episode,said that the merge was occuring in a certain number of days. I can't remember how many, but someone who can add and subtract(I'm dyslexic, so I'm staying away from numbers on this board from now on)said that the merge occurs when there are SEVEN contestants left. This fits in with Lindsey's wishing that she could last for a certain number of days more. Seven survivors would make a jury of five plus the final two.
It would also mean more people than ever in Camp Loser, which explains why Diane's list also included Clarence, as well as Teresa.
Check out the Howard Stern interview Lindsey did, zzz. And let us know what you think. It's on Survivornews.net.
And BON JOUR to all the Canadian posters on this board! No wonder everybody writes so well! And uses that extra "u" like in Colour!

Don't you think that MB coaches, or has someone coach, the bootees before their interviews? I do, I think he gives them little pieces of dis-information to drop. That way they don't have to think on their feet if they're thrown a curve by an interviewer. He's a control freak, this would be right up his alley!

13. ""Don't make me cry!"" |
I guess that's the line that I thought was spoilerish, zzz. "Don't make me cry!" and while she could have said it facetiously(I only read it, didn't hear it on the air)I took it as sincere. Boy, is that broad dumb, though! Pardon me for stereotyping(as well as typing). I don't think you could coach this woman into getting a clue. She seemed honestly SHOCKED at the way people are reacting to her, just like Jerri was last year. But Jerri, though a ****h has a modium of brains.
Lindsey really is a case. She's totally guileless, and so emotional, and I thought "Don't make me cry!" when Howard asked her who the winner was, was a genuine reaction.(Pardon MY guilelessness, too.)In that, it revealed whomever were the final two, SHE HATES THEM!
Well, at least one of them. She doesn't even know Mamakim and Ethan. By the by, I was totally overwhelmed by your astuter than stute anaylis of the Confessions of Kelly, on the Insider. I think you totally laid out EXACTLY what's going to happen in S3.And, yes, they are showing us so much of Kelly that she CAN'T last. That's why they are showing us Deep Inside Kelly. Because she thinks she knows, but doesn't really.
"It's not what you see. It's what you don't see," said EPMB when talking about Tina the invisible woman on the First Episode of S2. And I totally fell for that.
I remember saying to my fellow Suvivor fanatic, "That soccer mom is so totally a loser. What's she doing here? She should be in a parking lot, in a station wagon, with the kids."
WAS I WRONG!
Actually, I think MB's presentation and unveiling of Tina's character was one of the things that made S2 such a hit. It's like Tolstoy. It's the great American novel - on video. You reveal character SLOWLY,SLOWLY not all at once.
Mitchell, whom, as you know, I met, said about Tina, "She was bitching and moaning, too"(referring to our conversation about Jerri- Editing or B****?)but they never showed it." There was a lot they didn't show you about her. Evidently she also had a wicked temper, when she lost it, but we never saw that.
So, how does this apply to S3? I think your Kelly Confessions said it all. Ethan/Lex/Tom/Mamakim have already made it to the top of the mountain. I loved your observations of "core alliances" vs. the lesser alliances. I'm sorry. It's late. I can't remember the right words. But you were so right, I thought.
The only problem I had with it was that if everything is so PREDICTABLE in November, who's going to keep watching til January.
We know all his tricks now. The invisible ones who are there but not there, like Tina. We know now that the more mysterious Ethan, Tom, Lex and Mamakim remain the more likely they are to make the final four.
However, applying that "Cloak of Invisiblity" rule right now TERESA WOULD WIN! Talk about the woman who wasn't there!
I have two theories about this, 1) Her strong, metallic Southern accent makes her sound to much like Tina. They don't want you to think of her as a Tina clone - BUT SHE IS! However, poor Teresa has had a safari-full of bad luck.
