Once more unto the breach……
Posted on 26. Nov, 2009 by Snakebit Sal in Survivor 19: Samoa
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there’s nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour’d rage;
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
Let pry through the portage of the head
Like the brass cannon; let the brow o’erwhelm it
As fearfully as doth a galled rock
O’erhang and jutty his confounded base,
Swill’d with the wild and wasteful ocean.
Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To his full height. On, on, you noblest English.
Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!
Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,
Have in these parts from morn till even fought
And sheathed their swords for lack of argument:
Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
That those whom you call’d fathers did beget you.
Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
And teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman,
Whose limbs were made in England, show us here
The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
For there is none of you so mean and base,
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game’s afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry ‘God for Harry, England, and Saint George! Literature Network » William Shakespeare » King Henry V » Act 3. Scene I
Once more Russell will head into the fight, can the mighty Oil Barron succumb all odds and beat back the mighty Galu? He doth have the loyalty of the Princess of Shambo who follows him blindly into battle. The witch from the south has been defeated and sent to exile. The knights of the oblong table now fight amongst themselves over how to overthrow the mighty Barron. Princess Natalie now at his right hand is ready to administer justice to anyone who defiles her Barron. Her band of Merry Men ready to defend the Foa Foa castle and rule the the dynasty. The evil overlord Jeff P. watches over the Kingdom of Samoa to be sure all is fair at challenges and council meetings. It is his duty to berate the common folk of the kingdom until they turn on each other to give themselves a chance to incite a riot which might end their opposers rule.

HAPPY TURKEY-DAY TO EVERYONE… Esp. FRANNIE who doesn’t like turkey! A story for FP2… Every year my grandmother cooked the Thanksgiving Dinner with a perfect turkey. She hated turkey. She always had a slice of ham for herself.

franniep2
26. Nov, 2009
Who knows? We’re talking about PK. You gotta love him
franniep2
26. Nov, 2009
Ted…I will eat one slice of turkey…I do every
year for the tradition. But, I draw the line there.
franniep2
26. Nov, 2009
Hi aggie….I hope you have a wonderful turkey day.

I will catch up later.
Ted Strutz
26. Nov, 2009
Just watched the vid with Laura (thank you again Sal), and it is amazing that they thought the John Plan was going to work… shows how clueless the Galu Four really are…
And, just because it is a holiday does not mean that we have to stop talking about Survivor… I have to go tyvek a building now… then to my daughter’s (who does not have TV… so no football for me) for the big holiday. So see everyone later… don’t eat too much.
Finally, wishing RUSSELL HANTZ a happy day and giving thanks that he will be holding The Check for One Million Dollars soon!
Snakebit Sal
26. Nov, 2009
Well,Well ….. we have a family of bloggers wo have graced our Holiday ………… thanks y’all. Be safe and enjoy the day!
PK – probably thought no one else would show up!!

Hi Fran, still pretty tired from yesterday, Ted you will like survivor, laura is still on this one ,i dont get it Ted i dont think she is pretty, sorry. SAl, good morning also.
franniep2
27. Nov, 2009
Good morning aggie…..I’m still tired too. I can’t
blame it on the turkey dinner because I didn’t stuff
myself on anything….not even desert. I’m trying
to lose ten pounds before Christmas so I can chow
down on the things I really like. That way, I won’t feel
so bad if I gain a little….who am I kidding.
Oh well, I’ll talk to you all later from work…if I get time.
The plan is to decorate and put the X-mas tree up. Hell,
I don’t even like doing my own. Josh is usually a lot of help,
but this year, he will only have one arm to use because of the
surgery. Oh well…the boss is bringing in some (drinks).
That ought to help…not.
PK….I will talk to your stubborn ass later.
Peace out
franniep2
27. Nov, 2009
Hey boss man….how did you do on football? I screwed
up and took the Giants over Bronocs. I talked myself out
of picking Denver. Stupid…Stupid…Stupid. So I am 2-1.
Later dude

27. Nov, 2009
I guess everyone is still stuffed from all that turkey yesterday.
I have to say that I enjoyed the recap episode lastnight. Russells taunting of Dave with the idol necklace was too funny. And I felt bad for Shambo getting so emotional about her sister..great episode
franniep2
27. Nov, 2009
Good morning DonnaP. Major problems at work….BBL
knottylbc
27. Nov, 2009
DonnaP that taunting of the idol was classic… we need that clip on here! Gotta run to hospital guys…. BBL as well
Ted Strutz
27. Nov, 2009
GOOD MORNING ALL!!!… With the dawning of a new season, comes a Kinder and Gentler Ted! I pledge to emulate that paragon of virtue Thumper’s Mom.

Ted Strutz
27. Nov, 2009
Oh, hi Fran… hope all is running smoothly at the bank today…
And Aggie… so nice to hear from you today. Yes, I cannot wait to see the Survivor Recap Show and all my favorites. I believe I said that I thought Laura was sexy.
Donna… truly sorry that Eli and the Giants were not able to beat the Broncos.
And if Miss Tipton is around sometime… I just hope today is a better day for her and her family.
Sal… waiting to see what you come up with next, Survivorwise…
And waiting for PK… Hey, that might make a good title for a play.
knottylbc
27. Nov, 2009
just logged in before i left to hospital (finally got kids together for the sitter) and wanted to ask Sal for the clip of Russell wearing immunity idol in front of Dave… CLASSIC!! I think you should take the Laura clip down and exchange it for that one!
Hi Ted and everyone… bye!

Hello folks of the Survivor Blog. My name is Kevin W.
and I have a few things that really need to be said, to you
and to Cynthia.
I am extremely sorry for the post I made a few days ago
with the poem that upset Cynthia so badly. I will admit
that there were many not-so veiled threats in that poem.
I will admit that I was only trying to intimidate you,
Cynthia. I thought that I could make you go out with me
again. But I have had a hard lesson taught to me tonight
and I have been told, in detail, about some of the things
that has happened to you in the your past that I had no
way of knowing about, that made it literally impossible
for you to ignore my threats. I admit to you and everyone
reading this, that my poem was very wrong and I
understand now why you had no choice but to take it so
seriously. In short, I have been made to see the error of
my ways like I never have before. I give you my word,
for what it’s worth; that I will not bother you again
Cynthia and I will not bother any of the people of this
Blog again with my childish tactics. I fully intend to move
on and let bygones be bygones.
So again, I apologize for using this Blog as a means to
get to you and I apologize for interrupting the unity of
this Blog. More importantly, I apologize for upsetting
you, Cynthia, and making you feel unsafe. I would also
like to apologize with everything I have in me to your
Mother for causing unnecessary drama in her home and
upsetting her so much. I am told that this was the straw
that broke the camel’s back, so to speak. I now
understand many things about you and the way you deal
with and process things that I had way of knowing before.
It will not happen again. I will not bother you at any time,
ever again, while I’m alive. Please do not send any more
“messengers” here. Ok? I give you my word that I am
out of you life. You do not ever have to worry about me
again.
Cynthia I wish you only the best. Have a very nice life.
Very Sincerely,
Kevin W.

Just saw the Survivor Recap Show and was delighted to see so much time devoted to The Great One’s strategic play. And a little more insight on Mick was interesting. Dave continues with his hilarious comments. And, didn’t you think that Shambo was unduly harsh on Laura. Nice to see Laura enjoying the beach. Hope to see more of life at Ponderosa, for sure! Eric and The Chicken was fun. Looking forward to next week! Everyone have a nice weekend!!!
franniep2
27. Nov, 2009
Oh Ted….You just liked seeing Laura in her swinsuit.
Who are u kidding. I felt bad for Shambo. At times
it looked like Laura was smiling while Shambo was telling
her story. Seemed rude to me. Ted….you have me on board
with Russell not but it’s not gonna happen with Laura.
aggie
27. Nov, 2009
Hi Fran and Teddy, I am feeling kind of lousy, my nephew came over too my moms house with flu, and now i feel like i have it.

Hello everybody. I hope you all had a great day yesterday with the families & friends. Just wanted to stop by & read a little & say hey to you all. Thanks Snake for letting me know the apology was posted & thank you Kevin for posting it. No worries. We are good to go now that we understand better. Right?? No response needed.
Soooooooooo—who besides me watched the Survivor show last night?? Was it just me or did it feel more like what we are used to seeing with Big Brother?? We got to see things that they have NEVER shown us before. How cool was that?? I wish they would do one show like that very week so we could see what is REALLY going on.
Cynthia
27. Nov, 2009
OK did I get here too late AGAIN??? Where is everyone?? Well nevermind. Sometimes it’s best not to know.
Anyway—Snake—did you take a vacation today & give yourself a rest from the blog or what?? 
Heeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllloooooooooo is this thing on??
Cynthia
27. Nov, 2009
Ok I guess it’s not on.
Going to say Goodnight then. Want to watch DEXTER one more time before the new show comes on this Sunday. Actually I’ll probably watch it once more after tonight. I LOVE DEXTER—the show—that is!! Goodnight fair people of SS Blog land.
