Topic: The Amazing Race
Ok, let's talk about some extreme ugliness from tonight's episode.
First, I can't believe Kelly said that Ron was trying to escape the army by being a POW! Kelly, I know it is really hard being a beauty queen, and that you would give that up in a heartbeat to be held prisoner in a foreign country...ok, maybe not! Ron, let Kelly go home and play with her makeup. Move on and see the world!
Did I say that I was starting to like Rob? Damn Rob, as soon as I want to say you are a good racer...your ugliness comes out. Who are you calling stupid? You still think you are on survivor. NEWS FLASH...you don't need to be mean to win The Amazing Race! What does he have to gain by that? Ron and Kelly cannot vote Uchenna/Joyce off just because you think they are stupid! Hey Rob - Uchenna and Joyce outsmarted you. Does that make you more stupid than stupid? (Sorry Romber fans, it needed to be said)
I LOVED the little travolocity gnome! Why didn't they have anything that cool on our race? Did anyone else fall off their chair laughing when Gretch was carrying around her little guy like a baby? Oh well, at least she wasn't trying to ride it!
I have a question about the detour. Could I have chosen Kilo and added my dad's weight? If so, we would have been all over that! ;) "Daddy, just step on the scale...." "Ok, we're done!" (Gus and Hera - Team #1)
I thought it was so cute when Uchenna was coaching himself through the roadblock. (It reminded me of when I climbed the stairs of the ski jump and I was trying to talk myself out of passing out.) Is anyone else a little bitter that this is the SECOND time Uchenna/Joyce have not won a prize for being first?
Gretch, congrads on being the oldest to make it as far as you have...but please, STOP screeeeching!!! Just do it and shut the hell up about it! Meredith may be named after a girl, but he should have climbed the building. Oh, and just got the record...my grandma MJ would have ROCKED on that ladder and she is 66 too!
I had so much fun in this episode spotting the gnome! Did ya'll see Ron carrying it on top of his backpack? When Amber said, "hey" back to Kelly I had an unfortunate flashback to middle school! I was soooooo glad that Romber didn't have a plane on their knome. Wow, for the first time someone won money after stepping on the mat last. Can you all imagine Phil saying, "Gus and Hera...I am sorry to tell you that you are the last team to arrive; however, since you spared the American people from seeing Gus in a speedo - we have decided to give you a 20,000 prize! Oh well, a girl can dream.
By the way, this was totally the race we should have been on. First, the great boating advantages and now the BUS! I drove a school bus for a bit, that would have been grrrrreat.
