Bummed that it took them as long as it did to figure out how to read the virtual clue--dude, why do you think Jordan was spinning himself sick?
I'm not sure they could have caught up even if they'd figured it out right away - Dan and Jordan had such a huge lead coming out of the plane and they kept it the whole leg.
I liked that the last three clues were Actual Clues.
Me too! So many of the "clues" are just instructions - what's the challenge in that?
And yet, even without the clues being Actual Clues, so many teams manage to screw up. Perhaps there is a limit to how sadistic the challenge creators want to be....
We were waiting for our dinner reservation last night, and some loud guy walks by to talk to the hostess. He was sort of a jerk, really hyper and loud, but he looked familiar. I thought I knew him from my old job (which was populated with jerky, loud people). But my son kept tapping me on the shoulder, finally he leaned down and said "Mom, mom, mom!!!! That's Joe of Joe and Heidi from TAR" and so it was. So my Mom's Day included a semi-celeb sighting and then sadness that the Cowboys didn't win. I really loved the Star Wars challenge (Jet: "will these guys talk to us?" Cord: "no they're stormtroopers" HA!)
Sadly, there are not normally stormtroopers standing by the Yoda fountain. Otherwise, I would go there far more often.
If there were stormtroopers there, my son would insist on living there. So I'm very thankful of that.
I loved it when Cord asked one of the stormtroopers if he wanted to open the clue. The ST just waved his hand in denial.
I love those cowboys--they might be my favorite team ever.
Hee! Laura Bennett (PR) hits the failblog (not her fault). [link]
SYTYCD: No more Mary Murphy. [link]
Yeah, I saw that--and does that mean no Mia choreo at all?? That sucks--much as I have disliked some of her pieces, for sure, I've also really loved some of her pieces.
