It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

You're humming that annoying Christmas tune right now aren't you??

When I say "It's the most wonderful time of the year", I don't mean Christmas. But if not Christmas, then what??

The kids going back to school? Nope, that's soooooooo last week.

Baseball playoffs?? Nahhh, too early.

NFL?? Yeah it's pretty cool that football season is under way, but since my Raiders haven't played a relevant game in almost 7 years, that ain't it.

NHL?? Yes, training camps have opened, but I'm a Leafs fan, so if there's anything wonderful about that, please, enlighten me!!

No folks, what I'm talking about is much bigger than "back to school". It's an occasion far greater than Christmas. And it's something wayyyyy better than sports!!

I'm talking about............

SURVIVOR!!


Few things in life make me happy the way Survivor does. There's Battlestar Galactica (Caprica Six......hubba hubba!). Star Wars (original trilogy) does. Games 6 and 7 of the 2002 World Series did. Pocket Aces make me happy about 80% of the time. Cheesecake makes me happy 100% of the time. My kids of course take the cake (but if they take the cheesecake I'll disown them). And then there's the future Mrs. Meanie - at certain times of the day (or night as it were) she makes me the happiest!! Heh heh.

But I digress.

As of this writing, there are only 2 more sleeps until the 19th Season of Survivor (Samoa) premieres on CBS!

2 more sleeps until I get to hear Jeff Probst utter those four famous words - "The tribe has spoken".

2 more sleeps until 20 cast aways will starve themselves for a shot at a million dollars.

2 more sleeps until my Thursday nights are tied up for the next few months.

2 more sleeps until the next JC's Survivor Pool.

2 more sleeps until the plotting, planning and backstabbing begins.

2 more sleeps until hot-half-naked-dumb-as-post-women fill my 52" LCD TV! (What can I say - I'm a man!).

2 more sleeps until Friday mornings at the office are filled with Survivor talk! I guess if you want to split hairs that would be 3 more sleeps.

2 more sleeps until this junkie gets his fix!

2 more sleeps until I find out if anyone is hot enough to make this list.

2 more sleeps until we find out if anyone will be this stupid.

2 more sleeps until I am the happiest Meanie in the blogosphere!

Did I mention that it's 2 more sleeps until dumb-half-naked-women will be on my TV screen??

Only 2 more sleeps!

*sigh*

Oh, and when I said that Survivor is "wayyyyy" better than sports - I may have been exaggerating just a wee bit.

you are too funny. i don't think you'll have to revise your top 5 list...but you will have your fix! you wouldn't think anyone would pull an Eric...but it seems many contestants missed that episode as there is always someone who gets blindsided!
2 more sleeps..

Jen - "Blindsided" doesn't seem to cover what it was that Erik pulled.

Martina - Yes, you steal my cheesecake and you can start looking for a new Daddy!! Just teasin'. Love you honey!
