PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"TAR 18 Detours - Which would you do?" |
Possibly only entertaining to me, but I'll start the thread again anyway.This episode's detours: Spirit World - copy a ground mosaic, then dance ON top of it Natural World - mix natural paint and using your mouth, spit it to create 4 stencils I would definitely have chosen the Natural World. That looked a lot easier than making a whole mosaic out of stones. I'm surprised no one chose it, although the idea of putting paint in my mouth did sound a little gross.

I wasn't sure how many boxes they had to lug upstairs, but I would have gone with Honour the Past as well.

I am always going to avoid ART carp. The delivery task went pretty good for all and they were lucky to have good directions before their little magic school buses departed. I can't wait for the race this week.

Travel tasks worry me, although they do seem to have been a lot easier for the past few seasons, so I would probably go with the dung

15. "Episode 8" |
This week from Vienna, Austria:Long hard walk – deliver a couch from Freud’s house to a museum -OR- Quick easy meal – ride a Ferris wheel and eat a giant plate of Wiener schnitzel and German chocolate cake in 12 minutes No question on this one - I'd do the walk. Yes, directions would be tougher, but there's no way I would be good at timed eating, and you know (or you should know) that it will be a ton of food. Also, it would stink to be in the Ferris wheel with an awesome view of the city but have to be paying attention to stuffing your face.

I would have gone for the food (and probably regretted it)

I probably would have chosen food, but would not be able to finish it. I thought the two teams that maybe could do it were Jet/Cord and Flight Time/Big Easy, but both chose the couch task.

Yeah, I'm pretty good with directions, too. My hesitation in doing those kind of tasks is it's often the luck of the draw finding someone who can give you good directions to the place, and in some countries (though probably not Austria) the signs seem like they can be pretty confusing.

Depends on my partner. If I clone myself, I take the food - I'm a pretty big guy, have a healthy appetite, eat like a caveman, and tend to be a pretty fast eater. Not sure if I could accomplish it, but I would sure as hell try.If my partner is a skinny person whose idea of a big meal is two cucumber strips and a sip of water, no way am I chancing it. Truthfully, though, I watch a lot of Man vs. Food. I know how easily food can whip a guy's ass. But that challenge? Looked pretty similar to a food challenge I took six months ago called the Double Dog Dare (in a hot dog place no one's ever heard of here.) Basically, two big hot dogs butterflied and served on a hoagie bun - with four mozzarella sticks, two chicken strips, toppings, and what appeared to be cole slaw, alongside a pound of fries. I polished it off in about 10 1/2 minutes - well within the time limit - and asked for seconds. And it would have been faster if I hadn't dipped half the fries in ranch dressing. That said, if I do the food challenge, I'd have to be absolutely certain I could finish in 12 minutes - or I'd take one look at the food and say, "The hell with this," and spend my 12 minutes looking at Vienna while discussing the best way to carry a couch. No point in doing that with a bunch of stomach cramps if I don't think I can finish.

I have a HUGE appetite but I'm not the fastest eater so I would have been intrigued by the food challenge but I would have been better off with the couch carrying. Also, I have a pretty good sense of direction.

23. "Episode 9" |
This week, in LichtensteinCheese - Eat a fondue pot of cheese or Wheeze - Deliver 20 bags to at least 5 different hotels in town Again, no question, I would have done Wheeze. Although at least the food task wasn't timed, so I might have had a chance. The cowboys didn't seem to struggle as much as Zev and Justin did with it, but I'm sure I couldn't have done it.

Having struggled through a really good fondue that I was enjoying in an Alsatian restaurant in the past I may well have gone for Wheeze, it depends how tired we were at the time.

Again, I love cheese but I'm lactose intolerant so I would have to go for Wheeze. Actually, even though I'm a runner, I have asthma and the word "wheeze" triggers negative connotations for me, I would pick it for health reasons.

Your choices: Search – use a beacon to find the correct location, dig a hole until you find a body, then get it out – or – Rescue – one team member rappels down into a crevasse, guided by the other, then attaches a hook to a stranded person, then they haul him out This would have been tough. The search part wasn't so hard, since they gave you a beacon, so I might have been tempted to go for that, not realizing how far you would have to dig down. But I have no problem with the rappeling, so hopefully we would have chosen that.

I would worry about the search task so would probably have gone with the rescue (provided I had a slim partner!)
