Survivor Cook Islands Recap & Info: A Closer Look

Survivor Cook Islands Episode 7: “A Closer Look”

Turns out tonights episode of Survivor Cook Islands wasn’t even a true blue episode. For whatever reason the folks over at CBS decided they would be better off running a recaps and never before seen footage episode instead of the usual back stabbing, fish eating, coconut milk drinking, battle to the death.

CBS branded tonights episode as a never before seen footage episode, but mostly recapped the past six episodes, adding in unseen footage here and there. So instead of boring everyone and writing about all the crap you can already find in old survivor recaps, I’ll highlight the unseen footage they decided to air.

Find out what you missed after the jump!

City of Richmond Concerned About Firefighters’ Underwear

This has to be one of the weirdest stories I have read in a long time. The City of Richmond quite literally wants to get into Firefighters pants.

Apparently Richmonds firefighers are a tad on the neolithic side and have been under some scrutiny as a result of allegations of sexual harassment coming from female firefighters. In the hopes of curbing any sexual harassment allegations, the City of Richmond has decided to waste $16,000 of tax payers money to buy 6 pairs of new boxer-style underwear for all of its firefighters.

How is this going to curb sexual harassment allegations you ask? Why it will make the firehalls more gender neutral of course! Yeah… right. Those must be some pretty fancy boxers to make a firehall gender neutral. I watch Rescue Me, I know what firehalls are like, and no underwear, no matter how fancy, can make that kind of place gender neutral.

“We supply firefighters with various pieces of gear such as gloves, now it’s underwear,” city official Ted Townsend told the Vancouver Sun, saying it was part of the “integration of the sexes in the workplace.”

I’m sorry, but I’m still just not getting it. How the hell are making firefighters wear boxers going to make the firehall any more of less gender neutral? Excuse my stupidity, but I’m just not seeing it.

Firefighters strip off most of their clothes in order to don protective gear when responding to fire alarms, although Townsend said the city is considering buying gear that can be put on over regular uniforms.

Have you ever tried to put any kind of protective gear or suit on over top of regular clothes? It doesn’t work very well and it’s uncomfortable as hell. You always get one pant leg and one shirt arm that rolls up funny and gets super annoying.

Personally, I could think of better things to spend $16,000 of the tax payers money on. To bad Richmond can’t seem to figure that out.

Marilyn Manson in the Rocky Horror Picture Show?

Rumour has it, the anti-christ superstar himself, Mr. Marilyn Manson, has been approached by Fox to play Frank N. Furter in the upcoming remake of the 70’s cult classic, the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

There are two things that came as a big shock to me when I read about this:

Respected News Anchor or Wanted Rapist? You Decide

I came across this when browing through Defamer and couldn’t help but bust a gut laughing. I sent it around to a bunch of people at work as well and everyone got a kick out of it.

I can’t tell for sure if its a photoshop or the real thing, but its funny either way. The only thing that leads me to suspect photoshop is the slightly wonky “Rapist Search” text under the mugshot, but who knows, that could just be the TV stations formating.

I almost feel sorry for this guy, but not enough to not find it funny. Can you spot the similarities?

Biggest Loser Episode 6

I missed the first bit of Biggest Loser this week because I was talking to my wife, since she’s still in Nebraska, so I didn’t get to take any notes; however, I did watch the show and can give a pretty good point by point break down of what happened off the top of my head. Ream more after the jump.

Redneck Fashion

Cruising eBay can lead a person to stumble across pretty interesting things sometimes. Surfing through blogs can have the same effect, only a lot strong, since they’re not regulated like eBay is. But when you combine the two, that my friends, that is when you come across the best stuff.

I forget which blog it was that I was stumbling through at some point today, but I came across waht has to be the height of redneck fashion and, sadly, I want it!

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the glamerous world of Redneck high fashion. Some people might call it stupid, some people might call it ugly, rednecks, we… um, I mean THEY… they call it recycling.The Redneck man needs a good hat to keep the rain from messin’ with his mullet, and now every redneck has one hell of a decision to make: Coors, Coors Light, Keystone Light, Miller, Miller High Life, Miller Lite or Millwaukee’s Best?

Anyway you look at it, you’re still a redneck and you’re still rocking a sexy beer box cowboy hat. But hey, whenever a hippy gives you a hard time for being to creating to much garbage or polluting the air with your broke ass late 70’s Ford truck that’s more rust than truck, you can smile, point to your hat and speak those two words a redneck would never see himself saying: “I recycle!”
