FINALIST

I never thought I'd come this far and, uh, I got three votes, then I got two votes, then I got one vote and then they forgot about me, and I figured, 'I'm right in the middle where I want to be now'. And, uh, I didn't get a... today's the first time I got a vote since... a month ago. And it was the fatal vote.

Oh, I appreciate being able to talk to everybody for the last time. I said, 'Oh, it'd be great if I could finish in the Top Four or Five.'. I finished Top Four. Hey, that's good enough for me. You know, outside of the weather and being cold and rainy when it rained at night, and the sand fleas, this was a lot easier for me than driving a truck through Chicago every day of the week. Th-that's a lot worse than being out here in the bush.

I like to think I was the last good person down. I hope that's the way America remembers me. I conducted myself very well here. I mean, there are people I genuinely like on there, but there are some very um…callous, cold, and, uh, duplicitous people remaining in the contest. Good luck, guys. See you later, America. It's been a blast. Bye.
