Amazing Race Thoughts

[BlackEleven]

I had two good laughs out of last nights episode

1. I laughed hard at the lady that got splashed with the water in Mongolia and said "eww, its dirty, can I get a disease from this?!?!". Yeah, lady, dirty Mongolian water is soooo much more dirty than dirty American water... man, I was chuckling at that for a good while.

2. That team whos ox kept running away from them. First they decide they can't fold up the tent, so then they do the ox-hauling challenge and their ox kept running away from them ... I couldn't help but laugh even though I know I'd be ****ed off in the same situtation. Aside, from that, it was amazing how they still managed to finish first after all that trouble.

Why is this show so addictive? I can't stop watching! Few notes from last night...

I) I am seriously starting to love the southern couple so much. They are frickin' hilarious. When, at the beginning, they whispered "I've never known gay people" like God was going to strike them down was priceless...

II) When Kim fell off the horse and Rob was like "I don't know what to do!" Here's what you do, you get off your ass and help your girlfriend. Is it just me or are they going to be the Jonathan & Victoria of this season...

III) Karma, Karma, Karma! As a strong believer in Karma along the race, the mom's might need to start being nice to some people. I know it's a race but they didn't even slow down to see what was wrong with Frat Boys Version 2.0. The hippie's played the Karma card huge (picking up the hitch-hiker) and look how they ended up...

IV) Finally, I miss Kellie already. She's was quite the treat to look at...

If the rule of the preview stays true (if you're in the preview for next week you're not getting eliminated) all the strong teams look to still be around...

Well another intriguing twist tonight as they didn't give any teams any money for this leg of the race. I was actually glad to see the two brothers move to the front of the pack. Despite being in last place they still took a moment to honor the fallen soldiers and it appears as if the karma noticed that. I thought that in the first two episodes that they caught some unluckey breaks with cabs and the like and should have been running better than they were. But it looks like it's going to be pretty close as there can't be more than 40 minutes differece between all the teams, and it looks like it's being set up so that it stays pretty close. The 30 minute penalty almost cost the one team the race.

I would not have minded seeing Tom and Jerry go home last night. They are starting to annoy me. It seems that they only good gay couple that they had on the amazing race was back in season 2 or 3 with team cha cha cha. They were amazing. All the rest seem to whiney and compain all the time.
I still like the coalminer and his wife, last night seemed really tough for him going to Vietnam and kept thinking of his Dad fighting over there. Seems that he could not wrap his head around the fact that things have changed since then.

So the homophobic dad and daughter get eliminated after a stupid move by the dad at the airport! There is no way I would have waited for that woman at the airport...and as soon as I found out she was using the cab for her own purposes I would have dumped her...that wasted half an hour would have kept them in the race at the end due to the dumb motorcycle error made by the gay guys.
This is turning into a decent race...and im glad the brothers won the leg, but they seem too passive to win the show.
