When Peter Harkey was evicted from Tahiti
in the debut episode of Survivor 4
Marquesas, he joined a list of
1st-episode banisheees that had previously
only included women, namely Sonja, Debb,
and Diane. On a show where strength
is a requirement for the early physical
challenges, it's hard to comprehend why
Peter had to go.
The explanation
may lie in the fact that Peter is an
aficionado of yoga, which looks peculiar
when being practiced, and sounds even more
peculiar when being discussed by the
practitioner. In the Marquesas it
was holes in the body, energy flow,
streams of light ~ and goodbye Peter.
It behooves every
Survivor contestant to study the
mistakes of previous contestants, and to
play the game accordingly. Perhaps
we all possess character traits that
simply wouldn't be viewed with favor
leading up to Tribal Council. In
Peter's case the yoga & weird
conversation ought clearly have been left
at home.
