OMG I can't believe I forgot to start a thread for the new amazing race... We have some real geniuses this time....


Team Wiz- I wanted them to win...

Team Tattoo was stupid... I mean they couldn't find the flag or the boat and both were staring them in the face.


Team Home Shopping amused me... but when that chick got that facial ( a watermelon at full speed in her face) DAMN!!! I would've probably quit. lol


Team Doc  is pretty cool...


Team Glee is gloriously dorky

Team VolleyBall annoyingly california blonde


Team Kentucky... I laughed when the beauty queen was covered in gunk after the detour  ;D

Team Youtube...the dad and kid.... I need to go find their clips it looks fun!!!

Team I forget the rest of the teams... I know there's the couple who came in first--- and the annoying couple who argue... she's pretty dumb. What country are you in? London!!!  riiiiiggggghhhhhtttt.....

I'm missing one team....

Team Bio mom/daughter. 

That whole watermelon incident killed me.  She is pretty tough to go through that and keep going.

oh yeah... thanks.  that's gotta be weird meeting mom for something like the third time and having it be this extended hectic trip across the globe... wonder, if they win, they won't win but I wonder if they did win would they split the money or would mom give it to the girl for her future... weird thought I know

I just kissed an English guy in a tractor!!!


Good job girl; you've kissed worse  ;D

Miss Kentucky.... I hope I get to hold little african babies  ::)

you know dag...as I watched them in Heathrow airport... if I were going to do Amazing Race I'd check in with all the members of the board... figure out where everyone lived  and get contact info for them....then,  if I knew I was on a plane going to where they were, I'd borrow a cell and try to call them and see if I could get a guide to help me race to where ever.....  all that time in the airport there must be time to slip a piece of paper out of my sock and call whomever...  ;D

Team kentucky has some bad luck with cars... lol

when your teammate is doing the roadblock you have that element of feeling helpless because you can't help them... that's so well stated  ::)

tune in or check out....

um... a tv challenge? I'm all over it!  ;D  

did you see the crappy reception on that TV tho? I could never live in Ghana!  ;D ;D

checking out is a coffin challenge... hmmm TV or death! yeah no problem....

I sure hope Team Home Shopping chose a marked house!  :o

I was typing so I didn't see but I went back and looked and I guess they did....


I like Team Home Shopping... the blonde kind of reminds me of Tea Leoni.

I wonder if I can get a TV shaped coffin?

okay the crazy lady dancing and singing for the camera... I'm gonna falll out my chair laughing if she hands him back the glasses and walks away  when she's done  ;D

I think I just got jacked for some sunglasses... okay--- that's even better  ;D

aw she came back and paid...that kind of took the funny out of it.....

Did you see the coke bottle coffin?  :o  ;D

-Our taxi driver and the driver in front of us have just invented a third lane.
-I want my mom...
-I'm having a religious experience
-I'm just proud I haven't soiled myself...
-I think I did!

;D

I wanted team tatoo to go away...

Never thought about that...good idea. ;D


I was totally bummed that team biomom left.  I was rooting for them.  Team home shopping is really growing on me.  Their attitude is great, especially after the watermelon incident.  I will be rooting for them now.

That was hilarious.  ;D

Sometimes when I can sleep I turn on JewelryTV (a "local" home shopping channel located in Knoxville Tn.), I was shocked to learn that Brooke,one of the hosts is on Amazing Race.  :D

her partner on Amazing Race is another one of the hosts from that channel

I knew... the minute Phil started talking about helping build a school that it was a non-elimination round. I'm glad because I didn't want Team Youtube to go out like that...  in the beginning I was mad at the son because he's been pretty down on his dad.. the dad is what? 57? 59? but the kid acts like the dad is 79....then the dad broke down doing the hoop thing---- I guess he is kind of old for his age...

I wonder how stupid everyone felt for not seeing that word key to help them solve the puzzle...  idiots.. all of them! 

but the best part was when the team started drawing a circle around the african children  ;D  I'm still laughing about that!!!!

about 10:50 into this clip.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7NogzkeOPQ&NR=1

THE ice hotel ???

no freaking way I could handle that :o

Isn't Nick the one (team tattoo) who keeps chastising his girlfriend for being stupid! Doesn't he talk about how he's college educated and she's a hair dresser?  That is him right? 

if it is him... then why did the dumb ass just ask the African Taxi Driver to take him to the Arctic Circle!  ::) ;D

Okay I really love Team Home Shopping... the blonde chick still reminds me of Tea Leoni.

Note to self... and any future AR contestant... if you are ever lucky enough to book an earlier flight it's probably NOT a good idea to stand in the middle of the airport (in sight of other contestants) and celebrate it  ::)

Okay so watching the dad from Team Internet fall behind I was thinking he should find a cart to drive them to the gate... then Team Home Shopping shows up on one of those carts  ;D


why the hell are Team Internet in an elevator? no one else took an elevator

whew... I was afraid Team Internet didn't make it...

I'm so glad TEAMS DATING... the two couples (or are there three couples) anyway - I'm glad the dating couples are behind.... I hope one of them goes home...

don't follow gary and mallory... they always get lost  ::)

DAMN That looks cold!!!

I wonder when they fly phil out... the night before or what? what if he was on the same plane as a team that'd be funny... tho he probably flies first class...

No way I could sit in those chairs...nor could I carry that block of ice... as much as I hate extreme heat I hate extreme cold even more!!!

WOW!!! Team internet got into first place while I was typing!!!  :o



that thing about girls in the woods and the axe murder made me laugh!  ;D

The Dog Sledding looks fun!!!




BEEEEEAAAARRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




oh... fake bear....  ;D

I'm gonna hook up the great danes and the pug at my house and do this!!!! This is fun!!!  ;D

Claire kissed a swedish cheif..... but what about....
http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Arts/Arts_/Pictures/2008/03/14/swedishchef460.jpg
^ him???  :D

out of the teams in the bottom four I hope Team Glee comes in 1st or, technically, 5th....


there are three couples... I am fine with Jill and Thomas going home.... I don't like him either...

It'd be awesome if they went home with that express in their pocket!!!

Sleds? or Beds?


Easy!



SLEDS!!! :D :D :D

I'm gonna be pissed if Team Internet is last because they took the stupid task... >:(

Kat goes down!  Nat: Come on Kat!!!

Kat's still down. Nat finishes in time... stands up... hmmm... Where's Kat?!?!?  :D

Whew... team internet is doing better than I thought!



Team Doc is in first place tho... good I like them..

And we're going around corner like WHIRRR and we're going like RRRRRRR and I know my face is all GRRRRR  :D

YAY Team Doc....



OMG are they all gonna have to sleep outside at the pitstop???? Id so wanna go home!

Hope dad (team internet) didn't twist his knee walking in that snow...

what would be funnier than team annoying couple number three going home with the express pass in their pocket???
them using the express pass and coming in 5th or 6th....  ;D

When Chad's annoying chick... (from annoying couple number two) fell off the sled.. I laughed even harder than when Kat bit it on that corner...



for the record... Team Tattoo is annoying couple number one...  ::)

Team Express chose the stupid tent building task... so they had to use their express pass... if they'd gone to the sleds they'd proably still come in ahead of team cry baby....  ;D

Just watched Stephanie again... she barely fell.... I mean Kat totally biffed it... Stephanie is just sort of sliding off...  ::)

Where''s Team Glee and Team Volley Ball? I feel like we haven't seen them since the airport  ;D


of course sometimes I miss stuff when I live blog.  ;)

okay there's team Glee... you know.. if johnny would sit his ass down on the sled he's have an easier time staying on...  ::)

and there goes Team Volleyball's sled  ;D

obviously they are not as far behind as they thought they were... Team Express Pass that is...


God I hope Team Glee can build faster than Team Crybaby!

DAMN...

maybe they can build faster than Team VolleyBall...

Happy Graduation Team Glee..... actually... I'm not gonna miss all that annoying singing  :P

I'm at work... I just finished my project just in time for Amazing Race.... let's see if I can watch this now or have to wait till I get home at 10.

Almond Joy Commercial... Damn that looks good!!!

it looks sooooo cold!!!

I'm dying to see the time difference this week!

Team Doc: 0600
Team Beauty Queen: 0604
Team Home Shopping: 0604
Team Internet: 0630
Team annoying couple A... I forget what I named them last week  ;D  0648
I hate that Thomas dude
Team annoying couple B Team aka Tattoo... 0711 
Team annoying couple C: 0812
Team Volleyball: 0834

I wonder what Team Glee's time was... I wish they'd show us the time frame between the last team and the team eliminated...

Why go on Amazing Race if you're afraid of heights?

or swimming...

I remember that one year that mom who was super afraid of heights and didn't know how to swim... they were standing by an olympic pool with a high dive.... and the clue read who's ready to take the plunge... then she offered to do it... sorry you idiot there was no reason to do the task if you were gonna spend 20 minutes freaking out about it...  ::)

Fast Forward.. .did Phil just said you had to eat a hogshead?   ::)  

oy the doc is a vegetarian... lame...  ;D

of course it's gonna be meat... its a viking challenge....


so not only does the vegetarian have to eat meat she has to eat head..... lol... that would suck...

I could eat the meat but not when it looks like a head...

she is gonna be sooooooo sick later... 

gimme some BBQ sauce and I'd slam that shyt... but plain like that?  8-P

Holy YEAH!!!! Rappelling off a bridge and then pulling themselves back up... no way I could do that...  :o

Team Internet...

the thing said who has strength stamina and guts? and my dad....

DAD: I don't got none!  ;D

the norwegians have just been educated on what a wedgie is...




dudes.. I would have at least turned the head so it was facing the other way.... the docs were smart to separate the meat from the head and tackle it in small pieces...

that one doc will really never eat meat again... the other one might not either!  ;D

How are we doing? are we eating like Norwegians? Thumbs up? 

dead stare from the guy at the table....

Nat... You're very inspiring...  ;D

why would a team that left over an hour after the first team think they have a shot at the fast forward?  ::)

well hopefully they will be so far behind that they go home tonight... then one annoying couple out of the way

team tattoo is definitely dumber than I initially thought!

going up looks exhausting....

that thomas dude is super fast!!!

Is team Tatoo that stupid??? I mean seriously... they have no clue how a fast forward works....  insane!!!

Hey Team Doc!!! for eating a bunch of disgusting meat you get to go to Costa Rica... .not a bad trade off.

by being smarter than Team Tattoo Chad and Stephanie... tho still annoying... have just impressed me...  :P

I wanna know why Claire calls Brooke "Bam"  Maybe she's from Alabama?  ???


come on Clare you got smacked full force in the face with a watermelon... you can do this....

Bike or Boat....

BIKE!!!

Team Internet doing the boat is a good idea tho...  ;)

Nice tail Bam!  ;D

wearing a diaper folks!!!  :D I love her!!!

Vicki almost just slammed the heck out of her head! lol 

ya know, if Team Tattoo hadn't gone for the fast forward they would've been done before the last two teams got there....probably.  ::)

damn.... annoying couple a is in second place (possibly)... wow... 

Fish on my back
Fish on my back
I have some dirty smelling fish on my back
I have 60 lb fish on my back....


sung to the tune of Pants on the Ground!  ;D

good are they lost? I hope?  annoying couple A not Team internet...

wow team beauty queen in 2nd place... again awesome...

come on team internet beat the annoying couple...


Claire to the dude... why do you live all the way up here? 
me... excellent question!

Didn't nick say he raced BMX bikes since he was a kid? Vicki was dusting him!!!  ;D

damn... Team internet didn't beat annoying couple A.... bummer...

brooke cut her face but she needs to run now and bleed later....  ;D

phil is totally impressed!!!

so am I actually  8)

Nick... I think we're in second dude!!!  WHAT?!?!? What the hell are they smoking?  :o


they were in sixth!  ;D

damn..... not that I want Team volleyball to win I just want those annoying couples to get out!!!  >:(

Great Show! I hope the home shopping hosts win!!!

or the father/son team!

and I agree with you snoz. The dating couples are very annoying!

poor team internet.... but then again Kevin was riding his dad pretty hard in the end... during the "bowling" challenge. 

know what kevin.. if you'd read the clues carefully like daddy told you to you wouldn't have had that hour penalty...


still sick and tired of the couples particularly Nick and Vick  and Chad and Steph...


um.. wasn't there supposed to see a speed bump this week? apparently they edited it out thinking we wouldn't miss it. ::)

I can't believe Chad & steph overslept two hours and still came in first.

I'm sad team Kentucky is gone. Mostly I'm sad because all the annoying couples are in and at least one is going to be in the finale.

Once again I forgot to post. I was so stressed last week. Worrying about team Internet. So glad they made it. And that today started with a plane trip so everyone was on equal ground.

Nick is such an ass I hope they lose.

Aw man brooke and Claire are fighting. It makes me sad.

Ha ha ha. Let's hug it out. Yes we did suck it out.  ;D

Claire's a bit of a drama queen. I love brookes energy and sense of humor.

Vomiting after eating too much. That was me thanksgiving but I instantly felt better afterward.

Freaking Jill and Thomas piss me off. They just found their boat just like that. I hope they can't find a taxi.  :P

Yay nat & kat. That was awesome!!!

Way to prove Brooke & claire's point that the Docs are the bigger threat.  O0

Nick is an ass.  Him giving up on the Detour was ridiculous.  Vikki plugged her way through the roadblock.  Of course you know he will find a way to turn it around and make it her fault.

I am rooting for either the doctors or HSN hosts.

In watching that part right now. He is so negative and verbally abusive. Then ge got violent. Sorry- wanting to choke someone and then wanting to throw the birds overboard? You don't just go there out of frustration.

And um why didn't they try the other challenge?  Ha ha. 6th penalty and a speed bump. If they get ahead next week or anywhere near the top three I'm a be pissed  >:(

I'm with you.  Hopefully his little nappy poo kills their chances.

I'm with you.  Hopefully his little nappy poo kills their chances.

I hope she has a father or big brother who kicks his ass for the way he's treated her.  >:(

You know that interview in the beginning where he talked about how he never loved and respected anyone until her? I'm convinced it was taken from an interview they did after coming in last. My guess is she went off on him and he finally felt a little remorse. Doesn't make anything that happened okay but I bet well I hope. She dumps him

She does need to dump him, unfortunately there are too many people willing to be treated that way.

He may have just called me bitch but Yay at least he talks to me.  ::)

People are so pathetic.  >:(

I'm so mad at team home shopping for making such a big mistake....but I'm glad it didn't cost them too much time. 

I'm glad Nick and vick are gone..... now if Team Home Shopping and Team Docs can take first and second... in any order - I'll be happy.

I said last season and i'll say it again. I wish that Amazing Race did a reunion special like Surivior and Apprentice. I want to hear from the people after they've had time to watch the show.

I'm with you.  I would love to see Brooke and Clair or Nat and Kat win.  The other has to be second. 


A reunion show would rock. 

I'm so happy Jill & Thomas came in last.
If Brooke & Claire couldn't win I'm glad the drs did.


I'm super excited about the next run!
All-stars, fan fans or whatever they're calling it. I can't wait!!!

Loved the ending to this one.  Nat and Kat or Brooke and Claire were both fine with me.
