Chain of Events

14:00 -- Friday (Oz time) - Reality Show ho Shauna succumbs to tempatation and looks up winner of Survivor on the internet. Channel 9 seems to think a cricket test match is more important than a crappy American program thus the finale was not actually screened Down Under until Saturday night.

SHAUNA: Woo! Ethan wins! My loverboy!

14:05 -- Calls RHIANNON at her work.

S: Do you want to know who won?
R: I thought you weren't going to look?
S: I am weak.
R: I am weak also. Tell me who it was.
S: My loverboy. Ethan.
R: My loverboy! Woo!
S: So don't tell anyone will ya.
R: Of course not.
S: Woo! Ethan!
R: Woo! Ethan!

14:10 -- Rhiannon's BOSS walks by. Boss is also reality show ho.

R: Do you want to know who won?
B: How did you know?
R: I harnessed the amazing powers of the internet.
B: Who was it?
R: Ethan.
B: Woo! Ethan! My loverboy.

14.11 -- A COMPLETELY STUPID WANKER walks by.

CSW: What are you talking about?
B & R: Survivor
CSW: Oh. I don't watch that. Reality shows suck. Who won?
B & R: Ethan.
CSW: Oh.

14.12 -- CSW wanders off

14.15 -- Rhiannon receives all-staff email message. All 600 employees would have received it. The message has been sent by CSW. The body is blank, but the subject reads: GUESS WHO WON SURVIVOR? ETHAN!

14.20 -- Angry riots in the workplace.

When I told someone I know who doesn't watch Survivor, he said, "You mean that guy who looks like John Walker?" I guess that was before he shaved. ("American Taliban Guy," btw.)

Oh, and happy newyeeeer shauny! I went to Queensland, which explains my sudden brain-of-pineappleness. Then again, I've come over all wordy of late, and have suddenly discovered that I no longer have anywhere to purge the letters. Oh well. Angus.

What's 'Survivor'?

Ah, y'see, I was always more of a Big Brother boy than one of those Survivor followers. A bunch of people eating wriggling, live larvae was all we ever got on that programme. Big Brother was grrreat (as Tony the Tiger would say.)
