 September
4, 2006: Adam-related clips from TV Guide Channel's "Survivor:
Cook Islands Preview"
show:
Cirie Fields: "28-year-old Adam, a salesman from San Diego,
says he's head and well-muscled shoulders above the others
in Cook Islands."
Adam: "I think that's one of my advantages. I think I'm
physically, um, you know, better than most of the other contestants."
Probst: "Adam?" [shakes head] "...not gonna win this game.
He'll probably... wanna punch me for saying that. It plays
on another level that... he just may not be into, or he may
not have the skills yet, but... it's a dicey social game."
Adam: "I'm not really worried about it though, in general.
I'll, I'll persevere."

sells copiers (his target market is churches). He hopes to

July 12, 2006: New Survivor Sucks poster jazwinski joins
the "I know a Survivor!" festivities:
"Adam, 27 yrs old. Tall, athletic, good looking, cocky,
can be an a-hole. Works in sales."
And later on in the
thread:
"Which Survivor would you say he most resembles in terms of personality? "
Thats a tough one, he (like probably a lot of other contestants) is super outgoing
and energetic and friendly to everyone but when he's drained of food he might
be totally different. He likes to command a social situation and be most
outgoing, "alpha" of the group.
'Do you think he has the potential
to be the "villain" of the
season?'
No, I see him as trying to be more of a 'funny jerk' than a 'mean
jerk', know what I mean?
Oh, and he's originally from Virginia but now
lives in SoCal (not an actor and not in LA)."

| 2006: Marginally
informative data from Adam's MySpace page (not terribly difficult
to find yourself):
- Lists his hometown as: Spotsylvania County, Virginia (currently
living in Pacific Beach, San Diego, CA).
-
Got his B.A. from
Viriginia Tech in 2001, in Marketing.
- Lists his current occupation as "Outside sales," and, like
every other person in P.B., he's a drinker.
As you might expect, there are a large number of pictures
of Adam (mostly shirtless) on his MySpace, if you're so inclined.
