'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The drumming was neat, but it nearly took down a couple of teams.

I don't blame them for being mad -- it was a stupid, spiteful reason for being taken out. Though if many more of the teams had chosen the ice cream task, the whole finish lineup would have been much different, I think.

Kudos to the brothers for gutting out a truly heinous task. (But on the other hand, if a task requires you to go up a Really Tall Structure, what do you think you might be asked to do, hmm?)

Art Crawl!!!

Man, I could NEVER have done that fast forward. Jordan really impressed me by going through it.

Punishingly Intricate

I just realized (last night) that Caite is the really stupid Miss America contestant! Don't know how I missed that.

Not Miss America, Teen USA or something. That's why they went to war with Brandy and Carol! The ladies were making fun of Caite over the "like, such as" business.

I thought it was a great idea on the CBS marketing people to have Jet and Cord do the promo for the country music awards next week--they were quite good at it, too!

Dear Nigel, it's Mark Kanemura. Please learn to spell the names of *all* your dancers, not just the European-heritage ones.
