maybe it's "Things That Once Were". because, 'try this other waffle' doesn't make much sense!

Note: BJ and Tyler would have still been ok regardless of when Lake and Michelle arrived. If you will recall, Lake and Michelle took the bus with them and would have recieved the same 15 minute penalty. I was kind of dreading them showing up when BJ & Tyler were still waiting because I was afraid of what what the two of them would be saying to each other. Michelle wondered earlier if taking the bus would hurt them/be against the rules. Of course, if they had arrived and gotten that penalty she might not have felt as guilty about being the last to arrive as she did.

I am soooo glad Lake and Michelle are gone!! Their's is the most abusive relationship. I would have been gone the first time he called me a name or told me to shut up. There are ways to argue that are healthy but not that way. Personal attacks are not on the menu!

I actually think Lake is/was worse (meaner) than Jonathan... At least Jonathan had this vulnerable thing going that *almost* made you feel sad/sorry for him. (NOT saying I did feel sad or sorry, or that his behavior was any more acceptable--it was not. But he was different that Lake.)

We couldn't remember if they were on the same train or not, so we spent the time they showed them waiting, trying to remember if they had the penalty or not.

Hasta la vista Lake..........So glad to see you go. How in the world does Michelle put up with him and why ? What's love got to do with it ?

TAR often makes the last position look closer than it is. They really played up the 15 minutes that BJ and Tyler had to wait, as if it really mattered, when it didn't. I remember one show last year when they tried to show two couples as being really close, but later when the couple was on the Early Show they said they were over an hour behind. I guess TAR producers just like to create drama.

I missed AR AGAIN (got sucked into Deal or No Deal)! I'm so messed up since they switched nights and times on us, and the TV guide thingy that comes in my weekend paper has not reflected the day/time change in the last two weeks. Although I'm PO'd I missed the show last night I'm glad Lake is gone.

Just saw the Early Show. Basically it was "we have a wonderful relationship" "lack of sleep" "high pressure". Lake said he should have listened to Michelle more. Of course then he ruined it by saying he carried her in the 1st part of the race and she was good later on.

Just saw Lake and Michelle on the Early Show. Lake was trying to present himself as a kind, touchy-feely, loving husband. He even had his arm around Michelle. He said that sleep deprivation was the real problem. Michelle said that their map wasn't correct and that they could not find anyone to help them with directions. They both said that they really have a wonderful relationship and their friends and family told them they did well on the show. Nothing seems to be wrong with them so it must have been 'editing'?

I guess we must have imagined him telling her: "shut up, b*tch". If I were one of his dental patients I would be terrified having him put a drill in my mouth especially if he hadn't had much sleep the previous night.

Thanks Glenrie and Rosie!!! If you asked me what I thought they'd say on TES, I think I would have been right! Too bad for Michelle and their kids...

The word denial sure comes to mind with these two. Do they really think that we didn't see what we saw? lol

His name is Lake, as in River, as in denial.

When the hippies were so far behind I kept chanting to myself "non-elimination" but as soon as they were safe I was so worried it _was_ a non-elim and we'd have to put up with more of Lake. What an emotional roller coaster ride! I'm so glad my faves are still in it and that Lake is gone.

I was sitting in the rollercoaster car right behind you, Brenda!! If Phil had said non-elimination round, I think I would have cried. Since he said eliminated, I cheered! The name-calling last night was the last straw. He's been verbally abusive all the way through, but I was trying to see "the other side" --stress, editing, etc. However, there's NO way editing can make up words -- and about the minute my DH called me that name (whether I'd earned it or not), would be the time he'd be sleeping outside!

"When the hippies were so far behind I kept chanting to myself "non-elimination" but as soon as they were safe I was so worried it _was_ a non-elim and we'd have to put up with more of Lake." Ditto, Brenda! Please, please let the hippies continue past next week. I was laughing so hard as they did the wrestling match last night and they were so down (something we're not used to seeing ) when they realized they had driven the wrong way for an hour. Great guys, these two!

If you ask me, anyone that will wear a frog hat on TV totally rocks!!! This was my favorite team since CBS put up their bios and they have not let me down all season!!! I've said before somewhere in this thread that B.J. & Tyler may be my favorite team of all time

BJ and Tyler are awesome! As previous posters have noted, they stay calm under pressure (Lake, take notes), don't blame one another (Lake, take notes) and still have fun. The frog hat is priceless, as was their wrestling. I got caught up in the drama at the end, too, watching those seconds count down with my fingers crossed. It wasn't until after the show I realized Lake and Michelle would have been penalized too! Two minor complaints, though. That was the easiest code in history to break! Uh, does the paper go this way, or this way. And, I want the Fast Forwards to be something challenging (either physical or mental- remember when teams had to decide whether or not to shave their heads- ERic and Jeremy might be too conceited to do that). Breaking plates was pretty boring, and based totally on luck. I'm hoping for a BJ and Tyler, Ray and Yolanda, Fran and Barry finish, in that order!

Quote: "I'm hoping for a BJ and Tyler, Ray and Yolanda, Fran and Barry finish, in that order!" Jeepers Iheart! Are you reading MY mind? I agree with everyone about being on the back of my seat stressing about BJ/TY waiting out the penalty. PLUS stressing that Lake/Mi would still be left in the race. BUT, one thing I think/believe (will someone pls correct me if I'm wrong?), is that BJ/TY wouldn't necessarily know WHO was the team behind them, they had done different tasks. That 'team Lake/MI' had been on the bus with them & would ultimately get the penalty. By not knowing WHO was last behind them - I bet our Hippies sweated tadpoles for 15 minutes! No editing reqd. I'm so tickled that we didn't lose our Hippies! One of them, listed in their CBS profiles, walked the length of Japan to impress a young woman he was interested in. These guys are pure fun! Anyone have a clue where I could buy one of those Froggie Hats? My niece is getting married next Aug. Might be a giggle - - - (you know how young women stress about "elderly baby booming relatives and their embarrassing senile ways?) - - I'm thinking I might gently suggest that I plan to wear the Froggie Hat to her wedding "For Luck". (Nah, of COURSE I wouldn't do it, leave the bride sweating bullets.) But it might make things easier for my ride (my TAR strategy/partner Sis) to spot me amongst the crowd at the airport. My Cat-N-a-Hat hat is getting pretty frayed..

Good point about BJ & Tyler not knowing who was behind them! And I love the frog hat at the wedding suggestion...your niece will probably burn up the phone lines calling her mother at the prospect!

Thank you Tabbyking for some ideas (above) on what TTOW might mean from BJ and Tyler's shirts. It is one of those mysteries we may never know!

TTOW = Teddy's Toys on Wheels I think he is some guy named Ted who restores old (metal?) toys.
