Hey everyone.  Jonathan's TARflies interview was posted just yesterday.  If you think Jonathan is interesting, and entertaining like I did in some ways, go check it out.  If you didn't, it's still a fun in-depth read.
 
 
Be prepared for the length of the interview as all TARflies interviews are pretty lengthy.

Here are some highlights from the interview:
 
-Went into hotels and restaurants and got free 5 star food or 6 star hotels.  Got a Presidential suite in Sweden
-had guides who spoke English, and if they didn’t speak English, Jon used their cell phone to phone someone they knew who spoke English to be some sort of lifeline.
 
-worked for a travel agent for 2 weeks to prepare, used the experience as an advantage in Stockholm to get a plane seperate from everyone else.  Tried to use something called interstitial travel which could get an airplane a half-hour earlier than everyone else, but couldn’t use it because of one-flight type of planes.
 
-created a yield alliance between Rebecca and Adam and Kris and Jon, and to a smaller extent Lori and Bolo.  The purpose was to take out the model teams first, then Lori and Bolo.  Jonathan knew who had their yields and who had accidentally turned theirs in, and used that against other teams.  
 
-Jon and Vic had an invisible alliance with Gus and Hera that no one else knew about, and with the Voodoo Yield alliance, Jon and Vic tried to play teams against each other.
 
-originally Jonathan wanted to go on Survivor.  Victoria and he were recognized together so Jonathan dropped out thinking Victoria could actually win it, while Jonathan thought he could play a good game and possibly win.  Victoria made it to final 20, and Christie Hastie from Pearl Islands got her spot.
 
-Victoria then went on to try for Apprentice, and Jonathan was interested in TAR.  Jonathan was going to go on TAR with other people, but they weren’t interested in the other people.
 
-the Battle of the Network Reality stars should be fun, definetely not boring, and should redefine reality TV.  There are many twists and turns, and Victoria was the MPV on the show.  All the girls feared her.  
 
-thought Jon and Kris should have won.  Wil and Tara and Jon and Kris are the two teams Jonathan thinks deserve to be true winners.
 
-when in a zone area, production tells teams to wait for another team to get the shot they want.  This happened in the zip line detour where Jonathan was told to wait for Don so they could zip down together, instead of on his own.
 
-had choice words for Miss Alli of site called Television without Pity.  Obviously not a fan of her.
 
 
And also, my name gets mentioned in the interview! Grin

Yeah, I would have enjoyed watching that.  Jonathan said Victoria is a strong competitor.  So when it came to the race, he was wondering where that person went.  Jonathan was on warp speed ready to go on the first leg, but it took a while for Victoria to ramp up, he said.  Essentially, they were on different wavelengths, and thats why they weren't working as a team.  They were strong individually, but when they tried to work together, they clashed, and thats why there was all those arguements.

Thanks Genius.  Do you post at Sucks?   Always couldn't hurt to have some more support.
 
Chef, Sucks is a flame-happy message board.    Since you are a fan of Jonathan and Victoria, you should come join me.
 
 
I'll see what I can do with Jonathan.  I'll ask Jonathan to come post here.   I think this is a fun place. Wink

Just thought I might point this out:
 
Jonathan: No, I agree with you a hundred percent. I mean, a hundred percent. And there's nothing – I mean, it just shows us how diverse the world is, you know? I will say this - that the fact that you read me that thing from Canada? Canadians have been the most supportive people out of anybody in the universe. They – we get great things coming out of Canada. Which amazes me. But, then again, TAR is number one in Canada.

Nah, some of the posters there just know how to flame, and post insensible stuff. Hence, I will never sign up as a member there, though I would lurk and laugh my ass out at some of the comments.
 
Forumsnet is gaining in popularity, hopefully that could lure Jonathan here.  Cheesy
