Because books.

Why did I think they were out? I knew the Poker Girls quit, but for some reason I had it in my head that Brian and Erika were out before that.

I need to, like, pay attention. Clearly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They had the penalty at the last check-in, but still beat Maria and what's her name.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh man, putting this challenge on a nonelim is just brutal.

Art Crawl!!!

Man, I am so happy that was a non-Elim leg. And may they never do that hay bale thing again.

I was relieved that it was a non-elim- it's such a heart- (and back-) breaking task which is so luck oriented.

Also, re: Next Iron Chef: Noooooooooo! I loved her. Wah.

I was worried it was going to play out like last time and the gap between first and last place would be something like 10 hours.

I am VERY annoyed with the "must fly nonstop" rule this season. I know the producers wanted less airport drama but COME ON. IT IS A TRAVEL COMPETITION. MAKE THEM COMPETE AT TRAVELING.

I know it's a really backbreaking task, but seeing Meghan just fall apart after two hours while I remember the woman back in TAR6 go for 10 hours without melting down once...well, it was not a good comparison. Of course, if it was me out there, I would have been melting down with Meghan.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

There is a field near my office that has a bunch of hay bales, not as many as in the challenge, but enough that every time I drive by, I think of TAR.

I don't think it took anyone more than 3 hours this time...brutal by any measure...but a fraction of TAR6.
