I am so not bored of this season at all! It looks like it is going to be a great one.

My favs so far is Mark & Bill, Dallas and Toni, Aja and Ty, and now even Marisa and Brooke.

Ken and Tina are going to be their own demise. That or I have a feeling that the other teams will eventually team up and try to maybe sabotage them.

I have flown AA, Delta, SWA, UA, and used to fly TWA and was NEVER seated in order of the time of ticket purchase. It was first in line, first on plane. Their attitude and game style will surely bite them in the ass.

I want Terence and Sarah to stay long enough for a mental breakdown from either one of them. The frat boys can leave next week for all I care. They are just blah to me. Nick and Starr were kinda ok, but I didn't like Nick telling Starr to start kissing on the helpers at the boat to get them to move a little faster. Dude, don't pimp your sister out. Also didn't like how Nick was at the wall with everyone. Kelly and Christy...well, everyone has their bad days. And I'm surprised at all the screw ups they did that leg, they are still in the game. Kelly was a little irked when Terence was yelling at Sarah, and I'm sure that these two divorcees will eventually butt into one of those couples arguments. And as soon as Bill quoted Yoda, I had them as my favorites, lol!

I'm really enjoying this season! Can't wait for next week!

I hope Tina's arm didn't get too sore from all that patting herself on the back that she did.

Sea, the "Team Superbad" came from the TAR web site, from the frat boys' bio: "Some of the Teams refer to Andrew and Dan as 'Team Superbad.'"

Does anyone know what fraternity these two are part of? I'm wondering if they've been labeled frat boys without actually belonging to a fraternity.

And I find it interesting that Andrew wants to "make the most of their last year in college before they part ways" but Dan has already graduated (last December).

Yeah, can you tell I'm not impressed with these two? :-)

Whoami thanks for the laugh re: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Brand Band-Aid. I nearly tinkled myself laughing.

Is Terence the one I'm talking about... the one who hurt his forehead? All I can say to his other half is "run away, run away now."

So far the older geeks are my favourites.

Thanks Sugar for bringing a smile to my face. I need it! Glad you enjoyed my sarcasm. LOL.

Scary thing is, there really is such a thing!!




Costa, that makes sense now about the antiseptic. I was just remembering when my nephew burned his finger, and I blew on it to make it feel better. He was all of two or so when that happened!

Well, I have to give a little credit to Terence. That hit would have knocked me flat on my ass, and I would have been a blubbering fool. I can also understand him being a little anal about getting it cleaned and covered perfectly. He got knocked in the head with a chunk of metal that hundreds of hands have touched at the beginning of a leg where no telling where he will be going or what he will be doing or handling that might cause more icky germs to get into his open wound.

Though having Sarah blow on it might have been too much.

Pamy, I'm feeling the same way this season, too, and am not sure why.

Umm, I am pretty sure that Terrence wanted the "blow" for reasons of comfort like the two year old... Terrence has a HUGE need for comfort/attention. Especially from Sarah. Who I can't believe is not sick of it.

Who, you're welcome! I, personally, prefer the Hello Kitty bandages. (When I got bit by something a few weeks ago when visiting my office, everyone was all worried about me -- my finger turned this gawdawful shade of purple. But I'd bought Hello Kitty bandages to cover up the wound. And everyone in the office said it was really hard to take my injury seriously with a lovely pink Hello Kitty bandage on it!!! LOL!)

I am going to rewatch last nite's ep while I am laying in bed as opposed to doing stuff while I am watching

Pamy luv, I think the problem may be that there wasn't a Vegas meet (with me) to get you stoked up for the coming reality season! Redheads need their batteries recharged too!

JK, sorry you aren't up to speed yet, but hope things improve as they stumble along!

I was a big Beauty Queens fan, and usually protest about the "dumb blond" stereotype, but I think we may have a matched set this time!

The thing that gets me every year... presumably people who apply for this show are fans. That means they KNOW you HAVE to read the danged clue. Read it and pay attention. And yet, every time, there's someone who just doesn't do that. Terrence and Sarah (but of course, I was hoping they'd come in last), and the two blonde divorcees. Those two, however, screwed up twice in one episode. Really, read the clue, peeps!

Okay, there are two blondes and there are the divorcees. The divorcees are the ones who screwed up twice and the blondes are just...well...maybe not as smart and they should be, or at least at this point certainly ACTING like they aren't the brightest colors in the box. My personal opinion is that they aren't the bright crayons and it isn't an act.

The couple that got evicted this week earned it. They (he especially) seemed to just not get a clue and were always a step or two behind.

As Costacat mentioned, supposedly the contestants are fans of the show, so why do they never remember that they always bunch up at some point waiting for a train, plane or whatever to open? Although being 1st each leg and winning a prize would be great, you really just need to be ahead of one team at least until the final.

Sort of like the saying that you don't need to run faster than the tiger in the jungle, you just need to run faster than the other person!

It's classic RTFCS- Read the F$%$%$% Clue! Syndrome (epitomized by Heather and Eve way back at the beginning)...

Three things all teams need to remember:

-there will always be bunching points

-know how to drive a stick shift

-the only leg that you MUST be first in is the LAST one; so long as there's someone behind you, you're safe

Definitely know how to drive stick shift and even practice with a stick using the left hand! And definitely learn a few phrases in many languages.

As for some of them being fans, sure, some are, but I still think some teams are recruited.

Realize that talking louder in English or using a old sitcom tv accent, most likely from a different country, isn't going to make your cabbie, fruit monger or person on the street understand you, go faster or take you to your destination.

My take on the head injury: I thought he wanted her to blow on it to dry the disinfectant so the bandage would stick.
