"Honestly, I think Skanky grew up a bit on the show? YES...she was still very negative and as worthless as she was at the end as she was at the beginning but I did sense I MILD bit of growth? Or maybe I am just hoping for such? (Self-fulfilling prophecy?)

I can't even begin to explain how frustrated I am with SURVIVOR that not only did they allow such a pathetic piece of crap to be on their show but to contribute to advancing her further in the game by their "twist" (because they KNEW SKANKY was one the "block" next at that point). Letting such a pathetic person/player on the show when there are so much more deserving is SUCH a disappointment. But, then to have such a pond scum player win 100,000 upsets me even more. :(

I have been a fan of Survivor from the very beginning but the thought of the producers to continue to protect and reward the "weak" makes me want to boycott the show in its entirety. The whole point of a reality show is REALITY: no interference from us/producers/outsiders. Yet when they spring those "twists" at those certain "key" moments that only benefit the weak: that is just SO not right!

I am SO glad JAMES won the favorite award! He so deserves it. Is he perfect? NO! Are any of us? NO! But, he has been the "purest" survior yet in his intentions and intergrety. Very impressive individual!

And CUDO's to the producers for giving Denise $ that will not only change HER live but her family/kids' as well. Literally, brought tears to my eyes (YES! I am a big woosie!!)

Final note: TODD deserved to win. Altho he would've been my initial choice as a winner, he definitely played the game from DAY #1 and the the others rode his coat tails. Had Amanda gotten rid of Todd she would've been the "player" but how can you beat the person who's coat tails you road?

PS...I SO can't believe that SKANKY got 2 votes...NASTY!
