Mendoza's pre-game quotes and impressions (italics ours): - "Initial impression: Renaissance man. Distinctions: One of People magazine's Top 50 Bachelors of 2002. Attended culinary school in Paris. Speaks seven languages. Has traveled all over the world, from New Zealand to New Guinea." - "Who are you? 'I typically opt to take the hard road because the rewards are sweeter.'" - "On the show's appeal: 'It was made for me. I've already been to environments just as inhospitable, just as treacherous. But it's almost painful to watch if I'm not on it.'" (No, that's just the way the show is). - "Strategy: 'I'm going to try to come off initially as my real self: a genuine, hard-working individual with solid values. But I'm also going to be a jaguar: stealthy, sly, cunning. If someone stabs me in the back and draws first blood, when I think the time is right I'm going to leap out of the shadows and cole slaw my prey.'" - "Post-Survivor show-biz prospects: 'I'm a screenwriter, and my dream is to have one of my screenplays made into a successful film. Who knows? Maybe I'll star in the movie. ... I won't just go back to my cube.'" (Good Lord, Burnett, don't you screen these people any more?) |
