Oona Balloona (doesn't care about new tables)

I no longer watch Survivor (too fast, too many idols and twists, too removed from the original game) but I was a fan for a long time, and various memories come to mind from time to time. One such memory is a scene from Season 19, Samoa, where Jaison, a law student from Chicago, talked about how rough conditions were (at the time he was sitting on the beach in the rain, and it had already been raining for days), and how times like this were what he called "The Man Test". I sometimes think of this when I'm having a difficult day, especially pain-wise; I tell myself that it's just another day, another Man Test. Anyway, here's hoping for a few less Man Tests in 2024. And Happy New Year, everyone.
