Just browsing Zap2it.com, and after reading a blurb for tonight's Survivor that included the phrases:

The Guatemalan heat forces some castaways to dive into the nearby lake, despite the warnings of dangerous, man-eating crocodiles.

And

a player is driven insane by a nearby howler monkey

How could I not watch?

Ah, who doesn't love a howler monkey?

Well, he was cute. Just...y'know, the HOWLING was a bit of a problem. :) (And you had to know that the cameraman shooting the monkey howling had to be laughing his ass off at the contestant who was huffing around the campsite. Wonder if cameraman was egging little howler monkey on).

How weird is it that as soon as I saw that howler monkey in the first episode, I thought of lj? Hee!

I'm really liking this season so far. I'm all about Nakum, mostly because I love Bobby Jon while Stephanie annoys me no end.

I kept thinking last night, for a professional football player, Gary sucked ass in that ballgame. Really, what use was he? Red Headed Guy and Anorexic Female Sports announcer played FAR better than Gary the Professional Football Player.

I've been swimming and camping in Guate - it's one of my favourite countries - and I'm still here.

Heh. Well, clearly no one is going to be eaten because that wouldn't make it on TV. And as for the Howler Monkey? Well, it wouldn't take much to drive one of these wretched souls insane. They've been puking up their guts for the last two episodes and living off of ants (although they're supposed to have termites as cuisine tonight).

Heh, there's just entertainment values in tools suffering. Since they've been stranded with virtually no supplies.

Howler monkeys are pretty crazy-making, LOL!

Actually, Howler Monkey was cuter than the contestant being driven crazy.

And I'm not entirely sure whether he was being driven nuts more by the howler monkey or the fellow contestant who works in a zoo (who also kept telling people to NOT go swimming with the crocodiles). She kept explaining that the poor monkey was just lost and lonely. Poor Monkey.

Awwww, now I'm feeling bad for the poor lonely little monkey, too.

Ditto. That's possibly the bittiest monkey I've ever seen.
