Was anyone else totally put off by that deer antler thing? I think that might have been the weirdest thing I've ever seen. If I had been there watching that, I know I would've stared for a while with my mouth open then start laughing. ...And we thought Linda was insane!

I've seen worse. Struck me as the same mentality six year-old boys have when they play with GI Joes or Tonka trucks. . . Sad? Yes, but probably just a typical male thing. Look at athletes before the big game--football players banging on each other's shoulder pads and stuff. Clarence was equally bad, with his Mary Kay makeovers--and I LOVED hearing them rag on him for it, because I've been trying to figure THAT out for weeks now!GT

At least we now know what those antlers were for. That juvenile ritual would have been hysterical on its own had it just been for his own competative supersticion, but foisting it off as rallying the team, I could not believe my ears! And on top of that attacking the team flagpole as part of the ritual, wickedly weird! Maybe Frank is secretly Wicca and knows the mojo of the buck? SMILES ARE FREE. "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")

It was definitely unsettling to see such a outright display of pyschotically antisocial behavior. Symbolically attacking the team flagpole with his male weapons before going into battle. Hmmm... What a way to show how pissed off he was at members of his own tribe. Is there a war going on inside of this guy or what? Maybe he was just sharpening them up so that he could stab Brandon in his sleep. "I saw the way you was looking at me at the campfire last night!"I thought that the whole tail wagging episode with the elephant was very strange and incredibly schizoid, but the antler bit takes the cake. He did do a great job at marching the troops around blindfolded, though. You have to give him credit for being a good drill instructor. He was really in his element there. Most of the time he seems ill at ease around other people. A real case for the psychology manuals. I wonder if he's ever been in therapy. Probably not. He'd chase the doctor around the desk with his antlers.

>>>>>A real case for the psychology manuals. I wonder if he's ever been in therapy. Probably not.

Sometimes his little weird moments are endearingly funny and other times just totally strange and bizzare, like mimicking the elephant and this battle of wills with the deer antlers. It reminded me of the movie The Evil Dead where Bruce Campbell's one hand is taken over by the evil spirits and his *good* hand has to keep the bad one from strangling or stabbing himself. LOL BTW, wasn't it funny that Brandi first called them deer antennae?! Hee.

>Frank definitely is the nuttiest person >to ever play Survivor. > What?!! Frank is stranger than Greg from Survivor I? Are you forgetting Greg's "Nature Phone"? Or how about those bizarre, not-so-thinly veiled incestuous tapes to and from his sister?! Or his solo nocturnal visits to the jungle? Nobody said he was anti-social, and he's done WAY more bizarre things than Frank ever did. And how about Linda from this show? The whole Mother Africa loves you/Didn't your Mama ever teach you to hug/Thank YOOOUUUUUUU routine?!!
Frank gets a bum rap because he relates more to objects, military regimen, order, and discipline than he does to people. I think he has shown some warm, almost tender moments to his fellow game players. And besides, when stress, fatigue, boredom, and hunger get to the man, what's wrong with venting with a couple of silly deer horns?!! Would you rather him beat the crap out of Brandon?!! I'm sure he's wanted to . . . Let's give Frank I break--I've been in his corner since Day 1. Poins

Nobody said he was anti-social, and he's done WAY more bizarre things than Frank ever did. ===================== The difference between Frank and Greg is like the size of the Grand Canyon. Greg was trying to be funny/strange with the stuff he did (and I often thought he was) while Frank is deadly serious with all the strange stuff he does, which makes it all the more bizzare. Hey, I don't hate Frank -- I said I found some of his stuff endearing. But he's definitely a weird dude, and not in a "I'm trying to be funny ha-ha" weird way. >>>>>>And how about Linda from this show? The whole Mother Africa loves you/Didn't your Mama ever teach you to hug/Thank>YOOOUUUUUUU routine?!! ====================== Oh, yeah -- Linda is a total kook. No doubt about it. Just because I said Frank is weird doesn't mean nobody else on this show is. As a matter of fact, I think most of the people on the Samburu tribe are either very strange and/or annoying. I think MB wanted to put all the kooks together in one tribe to stir up some good old-fashioned trouble. He obviously tried to go for the Rich/Rudy friction (that never materialized) by sticking Brandon in the same tribe as Frank. >>>>>Frank gets a bum rap because he relates more to objects, military regimen, order, and discipline than he does to people. ======================== And that's.......normal????? >>>>> I think he has shown some warm, almost tender moments to his fellow game players. =================== I agree.

So that is the reason Diane kept saying she felt like she should have been on the Samburu tribe. Because she was definitely strange.

The command for ending troops marching is "HALT!" Frank used "STOP!" If he did that marching troops around, they wouldn't have known what the hell he was talking about.

The antler thing is very very strange....especially given the seriousness with which he played with him. There was no indication that this was any type of a joke (if it were, that would be better).So while I have defended Frank in the past, I fear that he will be sliding down on my picks list due to this bizarre revelation.

First he mimicks an elephant, and now he's mimicking a deer? Would it be a reach for him to try mimicking an actual human being?At least he didn't bring his Barbies or G.I. Joes... "Damn you, Carl, for leaving me here with a bunch of misfits." Frank Garrison, Nov. 1/01

I'm sorry, I really do like Frank, but the deer antler thing was just TOO weird! My mouth was hanging open the whole entire time and I was thinking "What????" I'm sorry to say it, but Lindsey's imitation of Frank and his antlers was hilarious! I have to say that that was probably the only time I have ever or will ever laugh at her (when I'm not making fun of her, that is).Oh, and a note to Brandi-Pandi: When you were making fun of Frank's choice of a luxury item, let us not forget what you chose. CHAPSTICK!!!! Yes, that is a hardy, reliable luxury that will withstand Africa's 120+ degree temps. Great idea!!! ************* "I have never walked in a crowd naked." Ethan, Episode 7 Now that is a DAMN shame!!! GO ETHAN!!!!!

Here, then are my top ten things they could have done with it: 10 - Ethan might make pro if he practiced with it 9 - Frank could have made weird motions and tried to communicate with it 8 - Linda could have hugged it 7 - Lex could have talked to it mano a mano 6 - Clarence could have threatened to eat it even if it did lay an egg 5 - Massa Tom could have picked ticks off it, then slapped it playfully. "Thes sumfine ball ass..." 4 - Silas, in desperation, could have tried to convince the rest of Bore-on that it was a bigger a$shole than him, ally against it and vote it off at TC 3 - Kimmy P and Brandi could have used it as a model for activity and achievement 2 - Probst could have paled next to its smugness and the number one neglected use of Lindsey's beach ball... - Hey, Americans in Africa! Take it down to the putrid water hole and party! ~~ Loogaro

You guys need to remember the final decision for luxury items wasn't really up to the survivors. Didn't we discuss last year the fact that they gave the producers a list of ten items and the producers got to pick which one they actually take? 'Course, why someone would put deer antlers on the list in the first place and then have a self-duel with them....LOL!

Frank's imitation of the elephant didn't seem that weird to me and I am in therapy *sigh*. (I'll mention that at my next visit.) But the deer antler thing, while WAAAAY weird is just a guy's way of getting pumped for the big game. Football players, basketball players, baseball players, hockey players--a lot of them have strange rituals before going into "combat". What's with that, guys? Is it a testoterone thing?
