PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Who will outwit, outplay, and outlast all others in the Amazon? Among them, 31 year old JoAnna Ward, a school guidance counselor who lives in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Born and raised in Niagara Falls, N.Y., JoAnna Ward moved to Atlanta with her family when she was an adolescent. She moved to South Carolina to attend college after being recruited on a basketball scholarship.

Orangeburg 'Survivor' tries for $1 million By LEE HENDREN, T&D Staff WriterStranded in a remote section of the Amazon River rain forest in South America, an Orangeburg woman faced giant snakes, man-eating fish, alligators and hostile native people in her bid for a $1 million prize. JoAnna Ward, 31, is one of 16 contestants in "Survivor: Amazon," the sixth installment of the popular "reality" series, CBS-TV announced Monday. "Survivor: Amazon" will begin airing in a month. Ward could not be reached for comment Monday, but according to the CBS-TV Web site, www.cbs.com, "she is doing this to prove to herself that she is truly a survivor outside of life's common adversities" and has the support of family and friends. She is a school guidance counselor, according to CBS. The human relations department of Orangeburg Consolidated School District 5 said last year's list of available substitute teachers included "Joanne" Ward of Orangeburg, whose qualifications include guidance. Ward was born and reared in Niagara Falls, N.Y., and moved to Atlanta, with her family when she was an adolescent, according to a biography posted on the CBS Web site. She moved to South Carolina to attend college after being recruited on a basketball scholarship. She received her bachelor's degree in English education and her master's degree in education in school guidance counseling from South Carolina State University. Ward, who is single, described herself as strong, courageous and independent. She has done several commercials and made a brief appearance in the movie "Juwanna Mann." She considers becoming a born-again Christian as her greatest achievement. She enjoys fellowship with Christian believers and spending time with her son, Dontre'. Ward is an Aerobics and Fitness Association of America Certified aerobic instructor. She also enjoys tae bo, basketball, biking, hiking, mountain climbing, running and rollerblading.

I can definitely see her as the first woman voted off. Rightly or wrongly she will get on people's nerves (and even alienate some) pretty quickly with a lot of religious talk. I think the spoiler on her being the first woman to go is probably on point

I think so too. I see Vee's religion crossed with Linda's ability to get under peoples skin. Not a good combination.

7. "My Theory on JoAnna doing well..." |
JoAnna, our resident African American on S6 does very well this season based on two things. The first being my personal feelings that she looks like the type who can be strong, get along well with others, and most importantly, stay quiet when she has to. But my other theory is based more on statistics based on my Survivor knowledge:#1- If you look at how all the Survivors have played out, it has always alternated between a man and a woman winning. While I don't believe JoAnna wins, I do belive she makes it to the final 6 (not final 4) I also have to base my theory on previous African American women survivors... 1-Ramona (did poorly) 2-Alicia (did well-ok, so average, although if Jeff V. hadn't been the first voted off which led to the doom of their tribe, she might have made it all the way.) 3-Linda (did badly) 4-Vecepia (well, we all know what happened there-lucky winner) 5-Ghandia (ditto) not too good, even without the Ted grinding incident, Ghandia was screwed) So, we have bad, good/ok, bad, good, bad. Now the natural transistion (like the male/female winner) is that JoAnna will do quite well for herself. I'm throwing this out now. I may change my mind after the first episode. TT29
