Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Jason and I are pretty sure we saw Jerri Manthey heading out of COSTCO when we got there yesterday. That might mean she didn't win this season, but then we have seen lots of famous types shopping there... so maybe not.

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

She wouldn't have the money yet even if she were the winner, since the vote isn't announced until the live finale.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

TAR -- I feel like often when there's been a U-Turn, it's been a non-elim leg, right? I was surprised that a strategic move like that actually took out a team!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That was a very unexpected outcome. I always thought the U-Turn being non-elim was kind of a cop-out, so I'm as glad they've dispensed with that. No Roadblock this ep - I wonder why?

ETA: I'm betting the cops are even more surprised.

Art Crawl!!!

Oh, yeah. Well, they had to know that was a possibility.

I agree, but...DAMNIT. For Joe and Heidi to be passed by two teams who are just barely literate is seriously frelled. I felt so bad for them.

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

Brandy and (?) made me wish they HAD done the Morse code. You go on the Amazing Race and expect not to get dirty? Hello? And only "stupid teams" take the physical task? Ummmm, you chose it too.

I kept confusing the models and the BB couple. Both teams were so whiny.

Ugh, right? STFU.

Oh yeah, that was out of control.
