Ocean_Islands | Monday, March 17, 2003 - 09:46 am     Sneak Peek |
Tabbyking | Monday, March 17, 2003 - 01:26 pm     how cool!! what a group already! lol so far i'd have to go with the attorneys! but it looks like a fun group to follow around... thanks for the information O_I i kinda like the joisey-boysies, too. i guess i'll call them the jois-boys to keep them straight...uh, maybe straight isn't the right word here...... |
Marysafan | Monday, March 17, 2003 - 02:53 pm     Oh WOW! I think I am going to like those comedian twins! I can hardly wait to get started on the trek one more time! |
Tabbyking | Monday, March 17, 2003 - 05:01 pm     why are they making us wait til june? dagnabbit! |
Riviere | Tuesday, March 18, 2003 - 09:16 pm     Great spoof!!! Everybody knows conjoined twins would have to be identical and same gender.. I hope the newest players will be as entertaining as most of the previous racers were! |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, March 19, 2003 - 07:48 am     riviere, i didn't read the bios closely enough--did it actually say 'conjoined' twins?! (how the hell would siamese twins get around on TAR?!) i went back to sneak peak and i get an error page now. |
Deedee | Wednesday, March 19, 2003 - 09:52 am     I got an error when I went back, so I tried the homepage. What I got then was a page that had eye logo's as a background and the following message.
Quote:Due to breach of disclosure clause # 46345FS3 michaelandkathytar3.com is hereby suspended indefinitely.
That is strange. |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, March 19, 2003 - 10:21 am     were these the same 'michael and kathy' who were on TAR 3? sounds like it from their url. must have been some accurate info, for them to be suspended, if they are truly suspended. how interesting, Deedee.....but leaves me wondering: how would earlier contestants know more about current contestants than the rest of us out here?! |
Lyra | Wednesday, March 19, 2003 - 10:31 am     It said they WERE conjoined until the age of 19, when it was safe to separate them. (Yes, I don't see how conjoined twins could successfully compete in TAR, I mean Road blocks usually have to be done by one person...) |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, March 19, 2003 - 10:57 am     wow! of course, the bios are gone now, so we'll have to wait a while to check all these people out! |
Squaredsc | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 09:55 am     darn i missed it. |
Tabbyking | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 01:04 pm     squared here's what i partly remember--for what it's worth. there were male/female african american attorneys who had been friends and coworkers for 4 years--appeared to be 30ish and bright. there was a male/male life partner team from joisey, who were the first same sex couple in joisey to legally adopt a child. looked to be late 30's and potential to be a fun team to root for. there was a female/female life partner team, named shelly and rose, i think. rose wore glasses and her hair was about 1/2 inch long. she never smiled. scared me! but probably a team to be reckoned with! i don't recall any parent/child team and i think the other 3 that were listed were all dating m/f couples, although i sort of recall that one of those remaining 3 teams might have been another m/m gay couple. it seems when i first glanced at the list, there were a total of three non-hetero couples. too bad it's gone...it was only 6 of the teams, though. i wasn't sure it was for real until i saw where kathy and michael allegedly were suspended. and you can't deny there is nothing there now when you click on the 'sneak peak'. |
Tabbyking | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 01:06 pm     http://www.galluccio.com/press/dailynews062698.html see if this works. i found it on google and it must be the same guys... |
Tabbyking | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 01:08 pm     if it's them, they also wrote a book called 'the american family' and you can buy it on amazon. http://www.galluccio.com/ here is a pic. not sure if they now have 4 kids or what... there is an email, too, if you are brave enough to write and ask if they are on TAR4!! |
Tabbyking | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 01:21 pm     oh yeah, one of the duos was obviously the twins! if another was a gay couple, then maybe there is only one couple i can't account for--and i seem to think it was a m/f team. but obviously, i remember things later and keep amending my guesses! |
Myjohnhenry | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 02:47 pm     there was a m/f dating couple that I think were both models or something along that line. The site page wasn't even up long enough to be cached by google.... you can get to the rest of their site by going through google for the main page. |
Essence | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 02:57 pm     Wasn't there a couple that met on the internet? I might be confused with something else. |
Tabbyking | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 02:59 pm     okay, mjh, that would probably be the last couple i was thinking of. not sure if you mean the site for the teams or for the galluccios through google (???) is there a way to see this sneak preview somewhere? thanks! |
Myjohnhenry | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 05:44 pm     Tabby...I meant Michael and Kathy's site and the sneak preview page. I was and still am a bit skeptical about the whole thing...time will tell. |
Tabbyking | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 06:10 pm     well, it will be interesting to find out! too bad we have to wait 3 more months...maybe kathy and michael just found couples of note and put a fake page of contestants together. although it sounds more like something the legal eagles or wil and terror would do! i kinda hope it's for real, because it looked like a 'stellar' line-up! |
Essence | Monday, March 31, 2003 - 02:24 pm     I found this on another site. I don't know if it's true or not, but might explain why the site is gone. railfan 169 desperate attention postings DAW Level: "Blistex Spokesperson" 03-18-03, 06:05 PM (EST) 6. "RE: Here It Comes!!!!!" This (like the link I started this lame thread with) is from another forum: Well, I just got this from one of the other writers at Reality News Online: ----------------------------------------------------------------- I talked to my contact at CBS about TAR4 and the profiles up on Michael and Kathy's site....turns out they are all fake and TAR4 has yet to be scheduled. So don't believe what you read on that site. Actually, they told them they have to take those profiles down.......turns out I kinda got them in trouble. lol ----------------------------------------------------------------- So I guess they were fake. |
Tabbyking | Monday, March 31, 2003 - 04:04 pm     i swore TAR4 was already filmed, just waiting to air....so let's see what happens! the fake part would make sense, in that there were some 'crazy-almost-famous pairs' such as the two dads, the separated twins, and two attorneys, this time african american and not same-sexed.....the lesbian couple was a new twist, too...we'll see what we really get. probably ozzie and harriet nelson compared to this (maybe) fake line-up! ah, it would have been a fun crowd to watch!! |
Appletalk | Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 02:51 pm     Actually my niece and her husband are teammembers for this race. My niece had just quit her job. They both are young mid/late 20's and wanted to travel. They did not apply and were not accepted. This whole post is a joke. Happy April Fools Day. Can't wait to see the show though. |
Micknrc | Thursday, April 03, 2003 - 11:58 am     Wow. That was hilarious. |
Monkeyboy | Thursday, April 03, 2003 - 09:04 pm     har har. |
Ryn | Monday, May 05, 2003 - 10:49 pm     FYI - the michaelkathy site is working and he has lots of stuff there - as well as opinions on each team already : http://michaelandkathytar3.com/Tar%204%20Analysis/analysispage.htm |
Ladytex | Tuesday, May 06, 2003 - 07:21 am     I just read his analysis of the new teams. I must admit he was funny, but brutal. |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, May 06, 2003 - 09:33 am     i like jon and al (the clowns) and 'papajosh' (steve and josh, father and son) the best. |
Tabbyking | Tuesday, May 06, 2003 - 09:43 am     just read his analysis, too...he was pretty brutal sometimes! wow! but then i remember him as the wussy half of the pair in their amazing race adventure...... i still like the clowns and papajosh.... |
