How is Steven with a sword?

It would be an interesting rite of passage to impose at a certain step up the corporate ladder. Great practice: cooperate with your teammates, but at the same time conspire to ease them out of the group. Prize: money.

A little survival training is a very useful way to clarify the terms of evaluation, though. In real-world work it's often possible to do a half-assed job and bullshit yourself into thinking it's good enough. Survival isn't like that. At the end of the day, either you ate or you didn't.

I think you're wrong, CB. Hate to fall in line with nihil, but, the instant everyone else sized Steven up as the certain winner he might have an "accident."

With this kind of money at stake, there may be lying, cheating, stealing, sex and, possibly, foul play -- just like in real life.

I think he would have won too, since he is so familiar with that part of the world

we could have watched him every week, spearing fish, finagling the other contestants, among other things

why the hell you HAVE to live in the states is beyond me

wonder what 'one' thing you can take Steve would pick?

laptop, to keep us informed

[we'll bribe the filming crew to give him online access]
