If there was ever a scene of “Survivor” that defines why you will never catch Leslie on it, it was last night’s termite and worm buffet. There is an entire industry created to kill those things, and I’m gonna volunteer to go on a show where they’re the best thing on the menu? They’re like the Peking Duck of Tocantins.

Count me out, bisnatches!

The most important thing that happened yesterday, aside from Candace getting booted (bye!), was Taj, former R&B/pop singer in SWV, outing herself as the wife of former NFL player Eddie George. I’m not sure why she admitted this, but at least now she doesn’t have to stress and lie about it like other notable castaways, ex-football players and Olympic runners with no visible game whatsoever.

What’s funnier to me is that no one’s figured out that she used to be famous too! I guess they’re not the right age demographic to know hits like “Weak” and “I’m So Into You.” I think she’s awesome. And her cross-tribal alliance with Brendon (who is completely hot and smart) is intriguing.

Also awesome- the budding friendship between nervous New Yorker Stephen, who totally won that rainy basketball rugby Thunderdome challenge, and sweet farmer J.T. They’re adorable, and might be this year’s alliance to beat!

Speaking of beatings – you know how “The Biggest Loser”‘s Jillian Michaels refers to her training sessions as beatings? I wish she could jump networks and give one to Coach, who is the hugest jerk out there. He was flirting with Candace, and then led the charge to kick her out. He’s a tool. He’s like a guy who makes his own homemade workout videos or refers to his girlfriend as his “lovah.”

And he makes me cry.

I think his tribe oughta dump him. He hasn’t contributed much more than pithy observations, New Age affirmations and hair. What do y’all think?
