Sure hope the one with the bad knee holds up and he can make it to the end of the race.

I'm worried about his knee, but also, they will have an extra "chore" since they came in last on the last show.

Thanks, 'bug, for the warning re Betty Corning and instructions re training harlots, lol, cmm (cackling maniacally to myself, more like). I dare only hope Betty C. overwhelms that pot. She looks off to a good start. I noticed in a previous photo of Reed that he and I share the exact same "bed" hair. I've got a maelstrom of cowlicks in the same spot as Reed's. Martie, that's some seed production operation. Sowed in situ in a few gaps this morning 'Triple Purple' orach, 'Gold' orach, and 'Magenta' orach. Love that orach! ornamentally speaking. Temps were up to 87 yesterday. Wish I could send about 17 of those degrees to those in need. Both my mom and dad are battling a flu that refuses to let go...and with the spring cruise coming the end of April. Spent most of Sat. morning trying to decide the best use of nine hours in each port of call, a nice problem to have but feels a bit like The Great Race, dashing through Athens in a day, weighing seeing Florence vs. Pisa vs. the Cinque Terra (voted for the latter). Frankly, a cruise is not my first choice for a vacation, but I am beginning to get a bit excited as it draws near. Perverse that I am, I just wish the ship wasn't so darn lux. A tramp steamer would suit me fine! But this is for my parents, since seeing Greece has been my dad's big dream. Now this flu is threatening to seriously decondition both of them. And my mom has been on V's Airborne... All this cleaning is making me ever more grateful for staying in a thousand sq feet of bungalow with one bathroom. During the day I'm mainly found in the garage-converted office and/or garden anyway. Good to hear Deanne purchased whatever camera equipment she needs since we will all benefit, lol. The Easter basket descriptions sound wonderful. I deposited a small bag of Ghiradelli chocolate caramels on Mitch's desk yesterday, the only real chocolate lover besides me. That was the extent of Easter prep here. Congrats on the happy couple, Eden. Sue, have a marvelous day. Pickle away, Chelone! I hope you have another headache-free day, Woody, that's great news. Yoo-hoo, Brad! Eden's not painting but posting Peep porn! Happy Easter to all.

Moon Phase Planting Experiment, wanna join me?

I love growing plants from seed but have had varying success with germination. This year I started some seeds inside according to the best moon phase and so far, I have had the best germination ever. I prefer sowing seeds directly in the ground and did that a week and a half ago. I still have more to plant but I don't want to wait until the next best phase so I think this will be a good opportunity to see if there is any difference. The following link has an good calendar and further explanation of how the moon forces effect plants. Here is a link that might be useful: Gardening by the Moon

'Hi. I'm Sorry. I'm in a Race.' :Amazing Race tonite, BUT
Q

I'm happy with the outcome but disappointed in the lack of any real challenge in this leg. Having the leg in LA sure gave one team the advantage. I'm pretty sure the producers knew that both girls lived there for four years and one still does. The whole thing was pretty predictable. I prefer the previous seasons where the last challenge had one sitting at the edge of their seat wondering who would get it done.

Their blog was great, very gracious and thankful. My husband and I have been married for 38 years and we bicker back and forth often it is not fighting it is just us being us, in the middle of it we might blow kisses or smooches or say but I love you. All our friends know it and know we are basically just playing with each other. Living together long term as the beekmens have you do things like that, better to let it out than let it build up into something explosive. They were even nice in their descriptions of the evil twins. I personally would never in real life have a friend that would steal from anyone anywhere, and I certainly would not think very highly of them. If those girls were so quick to steal that money in front of a tv cameara being broadcast around the world it lets me know it is not the first time and probably won't be the last. That kind of behavior came very natural to them, only after they thought a minute about it did they basically force the other couple to take part of it by shoving it into their hands. I just won't associate with a thief. I had a so called friend that came to a party at my home, found she had gone into the room with the coats and purses and stole out of the purses. I had to make apologies and feel horrible that now people felt they could not come to my home and feel secure. That was the last time she was in my home or anywhere around me. Had she asked me to borrow money if she needed it that badly I would have. I later found she was doing drugs and was going down a dead end road.

Mark and Bopper are my FAVORITES. There are some other individuals that I like, but there's not another team that I would root for.

Without spoiling the ending for me, could you tell me how I can watch the last 20 minutes of the show? We were recording stuff and watching "Race" and fast forwarding it. At 9 o'clock, I was watching Desperate Housewives and was recording the Good Wife and Celebrity Apprentice and and Race was cut off. Is it on Demand?

Just go online and type "The Amazing Race" in the search bar. You'll go right to their website and can watch full episodes there. I do that whenever the show runs late and into another of my favorite programs. Then I go online and watch with no commercials.

I just finished watching it online. As much as I thought the Kentucky guys were goofballs at first, in the end I was rooting for them. I think they were sweet nice guys who'd give you the shirts off their backs. Sorry to see them go. I dislike the border guards a lot now and also Vanessa. So I'm still rooting for the Rachels..either one, but I like R&B. She's a whiner but I still like her. And I would NOT have cut my hair either. No way. next weeks finale looks good. I just LOVE that show. My very favorite one on the air. When I hear that music, all's right with the world.

Hi Kids,

Lily316, you hit the nail on the head re: the KY boys. I really wanted them to win. They were such good sports and such good friends, never a harsh word between them. Now, I am left without a team. Between the teams that are left I guess my fav would have to be the blond Rachel and her husband. The border guys are just jerks, can't stand Vanessa and the other Rachel is just too much for me. Was she a big whiner in the last show she was on?...can't stand it.

So this week we have a two hour final? Did I hear that correctly? Love this show, hate to see it end.

I'm still in mourning over the loss of the Kentucky guys. Does anyone know if the eliminated players get any money? I hope so as I think these guys would be the most grateful, and the most responsible with using it.
