Whimsy February 8, 2018 Share February 8, 2018 Morgan Ricke (Naviti Tribe) Age: 29 Hometown: New Albany, Indiana Current residence: Orlando, Florida Occupation: Marine Animal Trainer Three words to describe you: Bubbly, stubborn, and determined. Why do you think you'll "survive" Survivor? Being resilient, strong, and fearless are nice traits that should translate well on the island. For example, at a younger age I was a competitive gymnast on the national level and sustained a career-ending injury. Doctors told me I would never compete again as a gymnast, nor play other sports. Fortunately, in high school, I went to state finals in volleyball and diving and then earned a D1 diving scholarship to the University of South Carolina.

What a fucking bitch, every time. we just honestly didn't trust Angela. We knew she was [Chris Noble]'s right-hand man. My original alliance was Domenick, Wendell, [Bradley Kleihege], and [Kellyn Bechtold]. So Angela was never in my original alliance. Any time we talked to her, she was just kind of harsh. I know she has a rough background, you know, she got divorced and didn't really want to talk about her family or the divorce. We would ask her about life and she just didn't really want to talk about the military. So it was just really hard to get to know Angela. And as you could see, she had no clue what was going on. She was so clueless on both ends that it just seemed like she didn't really have a relationship with anyone. So, good for her that you're completely clueless and you really don't know what's going on, so you're safe, but I'd rather go out kind of how I did. I played the game, I was strong physically and socially, whereas she was so beyond clueless. It was kind of ridiculous.

LadyChatts March 14, 2018 Share March 14, 2018 Yeah, didn’t like her before, really don’t like her now. So glad she’s gone, and gone early enough that she’ll probably never return. I can see where she’s the type that probably hounded Angela about her personal life and didn’t take the hint. Also, I’d argue Morgan was clueless since she got blindsided. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/66535-s36-morgan-ricke/#findComment-4144126

ProfCrash March 15, 2018 Share March 15, 2018 Quote No idea why the quote box came up.... As someone who was raised Catholic in the Boston area, there are deep memories of signs reading Irish Need Not Apply and the notion that JFK shouldn't be President because he was Catholic. The Irish were not wanted because they were Catholic and Protestant America was not exactly excited by the Irish Catholic. Heck, traditionally Democratic (at the time) West Virginia did not vote for JFK because he was a Catholic. So there is a history of not treating Catholics well in the US. And while that was a while back, there are plenty of places that I have been were people still talk disparagingly of Catholics. So I can easily see someone who is raised in an area that is populated by more Conservative Protestant sects dealing with a certain amount of bias directed towards Catholics. Mind you, I have never experienced this bias. The worst thing that has happened to me are the folks who come up on Ash Wednesday to wipe "the dirt" off my forehead and are baffled when I ask them not to. Well meaning but very, very clueless. And yes, it happens every year. The only time it didn't happen was when I celebrated Ash Wednesday in Rome. That year I was caught off guard by receiving Ashes on Sunday at church in Milan because Milan has a special dispensation to not start Lent until the first Sunday and not on Ash Wednesday. So travel tip, go to Venice for Carnival, Rome for Ash Wednesday and then move to Milan to enjoy a very festive Carnival because Milan likes to rub it in that they have not started Lent when everyone else has.... But I can see where there are places that the bias exists because there are Protestants don't understand the logic behind the Pope and Saints and the like. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/66535-s36-morgan-ricke/#findComment-4147363
