I got kicked off an island once, too.
Rupert, the emotionally-volatile, skirt-wearing, hippie-king of Survivor: Pearl Islands got voted off the island tonight. Everyone who watches Survivor agrees Rupert was the most competant player. (Among other things, he was the only one who could fish worth a damn.) … Continue reading
