Kid Nation better be awesome.

I like Laurel, but she dropped the ball for the town when she didn't give Michael to the Blue team. New council could have been her, Blaine (with Zach doing the head work for him), DK, and Michael. Now they have Dumb and Dumber in charge of the town. As much as I like Michael, his backbone isn't stiff enough to deal with the two bullies. (I think Blaine would have made an okay council member if Greg hadn't got on it as well.) Greg has a lot of positive points, but he's a good leader like Castro is a good leader.

Re fossil: Greg and Blaine "kind of" lied to DK (to get him fired up) and Laurel has been acting like a huge B lately. ...Interesting perspective.

I've always thought that in life, as in poker, one should measure a person by his/her actions over time.

Hunter pretty much puts ALL the former gold star winners to shame. I'd say the odds are good that he deserved it from day one...just doesn't make a production out of doing work for the greater good. He does it because he thinks its the right thing to do. So rare. If it's contrast in character you seek, compare Hunter to Taylor. Just make sure you have a barf bag handy.

All,

Saw five minutes of this yesterday. It consisted of some cute 10yo chick saying "I hate reading!" and talking about how stupid libraries are. Hahhahahahhaha.
