Hey, Kids, Well, the brother and sister are, no more. I was so surprised to see that happen. They were just about the strongest team and I think they could have won. They were smart, nice to each other, good with the challenges. But, not good enough. So, the father and daughter came in first, good for them. They did well. That cheerleader, Jen and her tall boyfriend really need to get a grip. Again, she acted so much like a spoiled child. The taxi driver would not let them get in his cab, wet...'that's SO unfair' I hope they leave next. The Grandfather and his grandson are hanging on. They did well with the rowing. The Goths are also doing well. So far, they have been a good team. They did a good job on the wall climbing. I think that she is the stronger of the two...in many ways. It would be interesting to watch it again to see just how much all the airline issues affected the outcome. I agree that they spent a lot of air time last night showing the back and forth between the lines, back and forth between the offices, all trying to be in the right place at the right time to get tickets. After all of that, the first plane was late and two teams missed their connection. Plus, the brother and sister were given business class tickets...think that was their fault? It does not matter. What do you think would have happened if they had gotten on the plane in business class? Would they have been eliminated anyway? We will never know. It's over for another week. No show until the 23rd? I might have to tape it. Don't let me forget...K? sooey

I was really happy with ‘old school’ AR this season. That is what they called it and I really hope they stick to the format. Most of the racing teams really didn’t get into any huge arguments (a few did, and I chalk most of that up to the stress and fatigue of the race itself). The finale was great. The winners were smart and played smart all the way. But any one of those 3 teams could have won.

Oh, wow. Too bad. It will be interesting to see how things go from here.

There was a documentary on the new dig at Pompeii on PBS at 10pm., so I only watched a half hour of TAR. However, I was able to switch over to TAR just as Cesar and Ricky ran up to the mat. ha I think I saw Amber and Vinnie already at the final amongst the other past contestants. How did that happen? I must have missed them being eliminated at some point - last week?
