We should have taken Jeff Probst at his
word when describing Ian Rosenberg during
the run-up to Survivor 10 Palau.
The show host commented on Ian's
likeability, and assured viewers that Ian
didn't disappoint. We didn't quite
envision a final three finish for the
timber-tall dolphin trainer, but we probably
should have.
As many compliments as folks would be inclined to
bestow on Ian, there will always be those
who question his sensibilities. Late
in the game, he seemed altogether unable to
craft or follow a winning strategy, even
though it was lying there before him like a
log in the road. And yet, incredibly,
he voluntarily sought his own dismissal
nearly twelve hours into the final immunity
challenge. Which we suspect merely
proves the adverse consequences of an
all-coconut diet: the brain turns to mush,
tears begin streaming down the face, and a
million-bucks falls from your pockets.
Yet shed no tears of your own for Ian, who today is
cruising the Florida Keys in a Corvette
convertible, courtesy of a single Survivor
challenge!
