don't dount for a second that it can get a whole lot more stoooopid

 

[kuulani]

These stupid shows cast idiots when natives around the world have been "surviving" this way for centuries

 

[nalani]

no kidding .. we would soooo win, ku'u!

Let's go to the next casting call ... *nod*

Umm, They only let you bring one thing along with you, besides clothes. Don't think they'd let you bring a keg of beer, so, No beer for 45 days?

 

[kuulani]

I'd bring the keg of beer. I'd be soooooo popular.

Besides clothes, what else do you need to survive? If a monkey can eat it, then so can you. Water is everywhere...unless you're in the Sahara...Fire is easily made with the right 'fluff' and some friction...You can even make your own alcoholic beverages with a little patience and a little time (Try letting non-citric fruit juice sit in the hot sun for a while, and you'll get my point... ). The show 'Survivor' is nothing more than a gimmick to make bored people (us) a little less bored.

Although I can be really bored I NEVER watch those stupid shows. Blech.

Ah no. They're resilient people. They'd find a way to brew something, somehow!

(fermented coconuts anyone?)

If it's anything like the last show, there'll be plenty of whine to go around, I'm sure...
