Survivor: China

So, season 3,598 of Survivor begins on September 20th, coming from the mysterious country of China. I'm really debating whether or not to continue my loyalty to Survivor this season. Though last season was salvaged by the antics of Yao Man, the whole format (no matter how hard they try to change it) is getting kind of boring to me, especially because the winner usually ends up being someone that I don't like. However, for some unknown reason, I feel guilty giving up on a show I've watched for so long, so in order to give myself some incentive to watch, or at least keep up with blogs on the show, I'm going to do something I've never done before -- make predictions on the order of the ousted. I don't normally like making predictions like this because, well, I'm just not a good guesser, but I'm bored, so I'll give it a shot. Here goes, in order from first person voted off to winner:
1. Todd, the gay Mormon
He thinks the Spice Girls are the most significant historical event of the past 100 years. He should be voted off the planet for that one.
2. Courtney, the New York waitress
I think she thinks she's tougher than she really is.
3. Denise, the mullet-sporting karate woman
She may be strong, but I just can't see her fitting in with the crowd
4. Jaime, the cute blonde
I just don't like cute blondes.
5. Jean-Robert, the professional poker player
He may have a good poker face, but Vegas is nothing like being stranded in China.
6. Peih-Gee, the jeweler
She probably only lasts this long because no one could figure out how to spell her name to put down on the parchment.
7. Sherea, the elementary school teacher
She just looks like a good choice for number seven -- good enough to fly under the radar up until this point.
8. Erik, the...I don't know...I can't see anything past his curly hair.
I think this guy's ego might get in the way.
9. Leslie, the token Christian
She auditioned 11 times to finally make it on the show, but I think her time will be up at number 9.
10. Chicken -- yes, that's only a nickname.
People will start to see him as a shoe-in for the win and get him out of there before he can say cock-a-doodle-doo.
11. James, the gravedigger
He might be the outsider at this point, so it's just his time to go.
12. Amanda, the hiking guide
She may not be the first choice, but the first choice might get immunity, forcing votes for her.
13. Dave, the former model -- that's the best title he could give himself?
I have nothing to say to you, Dave.
14. Aaron, the surfer dude.
I think Frosti will win the final immunity and choose to go against Ashley.
15. Ashley, the WWE diva
and that makes the winner of Survivor:China, according to my illogical methods none other than Frosti the Snowman. I think he'll finally be able to to afford a new silk hat with the million-dollar prize.

So there you have it. Let's follow along and see how wrong I am!
