The Amazing Race
Wendy and I have been watching The Amazing Race together every Tuesday. We watched American Idol in the Spring and now this one in the summer. It's a good excuse to get together, although I've missed out the past two weeks with her.
Watching this race makes me want to travel.
Along with that, it makes me want to be in control of the show so I can elminate people like the above pictured girls, Mirna and Charla. I would have eliminated them about 3 episodes ago. Charla is a little person, who surprisingly was forced by her cousin to do almost ALL of the work on the show. For instance, hauling a 50 pound piece of meat: Mirna gets tired and there's little Charla hauling ass with a piece of meat that ways almost as much as she does. Mirna gets tired while pushing a little wagon and Charla tells her to let go and she'll push. Mirna has Charla climb down a giant pyramid to get a wet knapsack and carry it up a really long ladder. What a wuss. And she was nuts. She always had these crazy theories about how everyone else in the competition was jealous of her. She had a lot of off the wall comments, and if someone looked at her the wrong way, they were a bitch. So, although Charla was an impressive contestant, I'm incredibly glad to see these two go.
Overall, I think I'm rooting for Chip and Kim or the Bowling Moms. They're a lot less catty than the other contestants.
