>Are Mormons permitted to get tattoos? > If so, that blows >that out of the water, >at least as far as >Neleh is concerned. --Mormons are definitely discouraged not to get tattoos. I'm not sure if they're totally not allowed to, but consider this--I'm Jewish and it's totally against my religion to get a tattoo (You're not allowed to be buried in a Jewish cemetery if you have them). However, I have several Jewish friends who have tattoos (although they plan on getting them removed before they die). I think it's kind of a stupid rule since it's not really hurting anyone, but I still would never get one for various reasons. Anyway, maybe Neleh is not as super religious as we all thought. I have a friend who says she is Mormon, and she really isn't all that religious. The question really is, Is Neleh as religious as we all thought? >And didn't someone post a vidcap >of Gina on the Stern >show which showed her in >a bikini and sporting a >new tattoo? --Whoever did that we should definitely applaud. LOL, that was me. I did it to show how hot Gina was, not to show any spoilers Ok, give me a minute to recooperate after looking at the pics. Whew I'm done. Anyway, she definitely did not have this tattoo while she was on Survivor because we would have noticed it while she wore her black bikini. So she definitely got it after. Although it does not look like a Turtle like John's but maybe it's a different Marquesian symbol.

2. "RE: Some new theories" |
From this site, I really like the threroy that the jury is the one to break a tie. This goes back to something that John said on an interview earlier that he may be gone but he is not done yet. Implies that he effects the game in the future. For there be a tie, our teams of two would have to do a little reshuffling. We can assume that the following pairs would vote the same: Tammy and Robert Neleh and Paschal Sean and Vee Kathy and Zoe (unsure of this one as of now) We can also assume that from the previews, Tammy and Zoe would not vote together and from previous episodes, Paschal is NOT happy about voting with Sean. This leads me to: Tammy, Robert, Neleh and Paschal voting together and Sean, Vee, Kathy and Zoe voting togehter Who would thier targets be? I think T R N & P would taget Sean and S V K & Z either Tammy or Robert (depending on immunity) I think John would definatly choose to have Sean take the walk of shame in this scenerio.

Hey Dawg, thanks for bringing this up. I'm late for class and don't have time to read the one about Neleh, but I do know a little bit about the jury members serving as tiebreakers theory. I think that's an awesome idea, the only reason I don't think MB might do it is because it might reveal who everyone on the jury is rooting for, and who they would vote for to win in the final 2. I think he would want it to remain a mystery until the last episode. On the other hand, I guess just because they pick someone to be voted off doesn't mean that they're rooting for the other person to win, it just may mean that they like them better, so I guess it doesn't necessarily give that much away. And there probably isn't going to be more than one tie anyway. Hmm... I guess I could see it happening, although i really think MB likes to keep the jury quiet until the last episode. HOwever, John did say "keep watching, I'm not done yet." That sounds like he does have involvement with the game before the last episode. Whether or not they actually do this in case of a tie, I think they should use it in the future, it's a cool new way and further reason that you shouldn't piss anyone off who you voted for because they will get their revenge either if you're in the final 2 or if you're tied with someone.P.S.Dawg, How did you get over 1,100 posts? I swear just the other day we weren't far apart! Maybe I was imagining things

I am Mormon, and I can affirm that tattoos are EXTREME taboos in the church. I seriously doubt that Neleh is the one who got one, unless it was a temporary tattoo.

Wouldn't Robert be an obvious choice to have gotten one of the Survivor tattoos? He's already covered in them and its against Neleh's religion quite strongly. Would seem to make much more sense..

DVK, not to get into preach mode, but current church literature is rife with anti-tattoo advice, and has been since the seventies. The only tattoos that are considered acceptable are those of Pacific Islanders, as it is a part of their cultural heritage. But even that while it is accepted is discouraged. Here are three of the most recent: 1. Gordon B. Hinckley (2000) (current pres. of the church): Fathers, caution your sons against having their bodies tattooed. They may resist your talk now, but the time will come when they will thank you. A tattoo is graffiti on the temple of the body. 2. and in a Relief Society meeting, he repeated the same thing to mothers: Teach them to respect their bodies. The practice is growing among young people of tattooing and piercing their bodies. The time will come when they will regret it, but it will then be too late. The scriptures unequivocally declare: 3. Message to Young Men from the Presiding Bishopric (2000): Be clean. Youth are to avoid pornography, taking the name of God in vain, illicit drugs, destructive entertainment, tattoos, body piercing (other than piercing of the ears by women for one pair of earrings), early dating, and every kind of sexual transgression. Youth should choose friends who will be a positive influence on them. There are countless more that I won't bore you with. I am sure Neleh would have encountered the message and I would be shocked if she got a tattoo. Not to mention that it wouldn't make sense in the context of the game because she is not friends with John now. The most likely ones to get a tattoo with him are his only two allies left--Tammy and Robert.

10. "Addendum" |
LAST EDITED ON 04-24-02 AT 09:44 PM (EST)Just found a message in my inbox from someone who's registered but can't seem to post, so will pass on what they told me. . . Lives in Vegas, heard John on the radio this morning (I don't know the station, and haven't had a chance to look for it online yet)--and he stated that of all the contestants, he, Gabe, and Neleh are probably the closest. So. . . this may well be a teaser as to the identity of the tattoo crew. I'm sure John thinks he's clever enough that he can still "play the game" via the media. For an interesting slant on the whole Mormon thing, go find the original (sorry, LENGTHY) post OFG did pre-show on Bashers about astrology. heresy went into some detail about how unmarried girls are not DISCOURAGED from certain behaviors that they would be more emphatically looked down on for, once married. (I had asked about Neleh's dress, awful streak job, etc.) If she's been working a makeup counter, follows silly fashion trends, it's not inconceivable that she might go so far as to get a tattoo--especially if she fell into the Survivor ho' trap of believing that "America's Sweethheart" BS and thinking she has an acting career in her future, instead of settling down to churn out another batch of Mormon kiddies with someone Pappy's age. . . GT
All constants are variables. - Murphy's Twelfth Law Edited to add the link for the radio station: http://www.mix941.fm/mark_mercedes.shtml Mark & Mercedes in the Morning show. So far, there is nothing to indicate John was on the show, but they DO list recent guests Tom Buchanan, Ethan Zohn, and Lex the WonderGUT, so it seems to be a popular stop on the media wagon.
Chellevivor, you need to figure out your posting problems and get credit for your own scoops! (Webby, she's getting "administrative error" messages when she tries to post, but she was able to use the internal SB message system. . . ??)

17. "RE: Addendum" |
Thanks Georgie for your refreshing perspective. I was thinking the EXACT same thing. Being a DAW (as all Survivors are) has a way of compromising a person's convictions. Plus people change, especially someone as young as Neleh. Maybe in addition to her wake up call about the Rotu4 she she got a r/t wake up call.

First of all, excellent find Dawg. I guess I have a hard time believing that Neleh is the second of the tattoo people, but stranger things have happened. What I don't find hard to believe is her getting tossed. If she does go on the RC, one thing that appears to happend is you get talked about. It gives others a chance to bond, meaning S/V/R/T, and for whatever reason, decide to vote her off. People are also specualting that this one comes down to a tie, and nobody knows what the tiebreaker is. (Here comes the totally wrong part of this post) I read somewhere that there would be consequenses if a tie came up. Could this be that these two people would also get immunity? The first time, you wouldn't have a backup plan, which means you have no clue who the people you voted with are going to vote for now?

The "Word on the Street" seems to be coming from the SSEZboards (Yes I read them - they actually have a handful of people with readable IQs over there ;)This is the first place I've seen these theories - they should be easy to find with the 200 sheep replying (oh yeah, that's gotta be it! on every "spoiler" post) I think it really depends on how much confidence you have in the EZboards. ---------------------------------------- Now let us never speak of S3 again. Kathy: Paschal, they're going to vote us off one by one. Paschal: So? Stop Discrimination Now
