amused by his commentary last time

Prickly?

[luvmanatees]

Marty, maybe that's a nice way of saying he's a prick sometimes.  I think it means, easily irritated.  So he wouldn't have made it nice on bb this season.  lol

I hope his team changes their mind about voting him out first.  I always liked him.  He needs to find the idol.

A keeper if he gets snarky in his commentary again.

target on his back

Shame because he is so so happy to be there.

[NYROSE]

He will not make it, but I do not like that they put a target on him without giving him a chance.

He's out looking for the idol - that will definitely put a target on your back unless you are very sly about it and do it unnoticed.  But with all those eyes on the island, I seriously doubt you have time to do anything without someone taking notice.  Besides, the idol might be in the camp itself instead of some remote tree stump.

[NYROSE]

He knows he needs the idol. But you are right one has to be very sly.

[Slimcruz]

I don't like the immediate target either.  Hate it when they do that and they never do it to the right person.

Not to thrilled to see him back (again)!!
Nothing more to prove except winning - let's see how well that works out!  Everyone is gunning for him so he'll probably be out soon.

Have no immediate memory of him, so he did not bug me I guess or thrill me either. What do you recall that puts you off seeing him again?

[jersey721]

He's most famous for the chicken stealing incident.  Who doesn't love a chickennapper?

[NYROSE]

O yea that was good.

[WickedOne]

!! Goodonya !!

[stevea11]

Is it just me or am I crazy. If I close my eyes and listen to him talk I swear he sounds just like Hawkeye Pierce. (Alan Alda)

[6Borders]

I thought he was going to pee his pants when he found the idol.  He did a good job (finally) figuring out the clue.
Is it me or just editing that nobody else is off looking for it???

You could be crazy, I don't know.  But you're not alone in thinking he sounds like Alan Alda.  I think this was mentioned one of the other times he was on.
