Amazing Race 10 Update!!

Amazing Race 10 Update!!



You’ve Got To Move It... Move It.



And they're off... to Madagascar, and as far as Kentucky is concerned... a whole bunch of cartoon animals are a’waiten for them. There aren’t... but there are a lot of cabs with eleven ounces of gasoline in them, some totally crappy looking mattresses and ... little teeth and hair in the cow lips. Yum.



Good Afternoon Race Fans...
(aka “The show, in as few words as possible!")
Middle of the night (again), and it’s off to bunch up at the airport!
~ fly to Madagascar
~ realize it’s not a cartoon
~ find a giant black angel (statue)
~ New Twist: Team UP! (they call it “intersection”), means all must form “two team teams” and have to work together for the next segment.
~ Fast Forward, eating a plate of righteously disgusting cow lips
~ or Detour: Long Sleep (bag and move 8 crappy foam mattresses) or Short Letter (making this cool decorative paper – that nobody opted to do! D’uh)
~ Find some long weirdly named steps
~ and Road Block with a search for dudes selling specific rubber stamps (and do that kids museum thing with collecting the stamps on a card)
~ then hit the mat with cap’n big hands and watch the inbred team from Kentucky get booted to the curb.

The Good
That team Chin was drawn into an alliance by the “intersection” thing that forced them to break away from the “Six Pack” (them, the cleaning ladies and Kentucky). They’re gonna win, but not if they’re always WAITING for the other teams!!! Gah!

The Bad
What the hell was with every freaking cab running out of gas? And it looked like they were filling their tanks from little pint bottles... I’m guessing gas is at a premium on Madagascar!!... oh wait... mad a gas car... damn... there’s a pun in there somewhere...

The Ugly
The twist of fate that has left the cleaning ladies still-in-this-game!!!

The Exceptionally Pathetic
OH my god... cow lips, with hair bits and the occasional FREAKING TOOTH. Two teams (“intersection”) shared this... Rob and Kim, and the ex-Druggies. Bottom line: She kept puking it back up. It took them for flipp’en ever to finish this so-called “fast forward”. Bah... the winners today beat them to the mat.

The Losers
Kentucky couldn’t muster it up to live through the 30 minute wait at the mat (marked for elimination due to non-elimination last week – therefore, they get a 30 min penalty unless they come in first this week.) All of this... is a bit of a bummer because they were fun to watch... way “funner” than the Cleaning Ladies and their size 900 asses.

The Winners…
The pageant girls win this leg and get a trip to Hawaii for their trouble. They are soooo reinforcing the negative stereotypes associated with vacuous blond beauties with unbelievable smiles, perfect teeth, superficial values, and low “high water marks for personal morals”. But whatever.
The Chins better win... what with all their amazing Karma. :)
