Thoughts on TAR:
The hilarity of their marching almost made up for the stupidness of the fraternity guys.
I hated the flour challenge. They couldn't find something more interesting in Moscow? They say they want an all-female team to win, but stupid, purely physical challenges like that aren't helping.
Also, I'm with whoever lamented above about the lack of transportation decisions to be made. Portugal and the taxi/bus/train adventures seem so long ago.
Looking at the credits, I'm pretty happy with the final four (although I'd prefer the geeks over Dandrew).
Yeah, I miss the geeks. But they would have been outed by now with the physical stuff anyway.
And I probably miss the beekeepers, but they weren't in long enough for me to know. They were really cute, though.
I didn't realize Lacey Schwimmer was one of the professional dancers on the
Dancing with the Stars.
Not that I would watch it, but still.

Yep. I kinda liked her, as I always seem to be drawn to problem children. But she was with Lance Bass, whom I very much enjoyed.
I saw a clip of the "It's Tricky" dance on CNN the other day, and whoa, that was bad. Apparently Brooke Burke won and Warren Sapp came in second. I kinda wanted Warren Sapp to score one for the big people.
Hmm, I wonder if the bad marching is up on youtube yet. I have non-TAR watching former color guard friends that MUST SEE IT.
Yes! The Marching is on youtube.
I couldn't watch the marching at all!
My boyfriend was hanging out with someone last night who will be having Thanksgiving with Stephanie, last season's Top Chef winner!! I'm dying to know what the menu will be.
Evidently she's friends with the owner of one of his regular bars (his Tuesday night hang out) and is in there quite a bit. She's also been in the cafe my boyfriend's good friend owns, Swim Cafe, but his friend was too nervous to talk to her. But word on the street is that she is, as she seemed on the show, super nice and funny.
