Hi Everyone! I'm lvoein' all your lists! Great comments! And what great challenges this time!

1. Zev/Justin - Great job this leg and love their attitudes! Hang in there guys! Don't think others see them as a threat and that helps too. Hope Zev can keep it together next week.

2. Flight Time/Big Easy - They crack me up. But I wish they were actually working to win the Race - not "following" so much. It was great seeing them at the waterfall/prayer challenge, and I think the thing with the fanny pack was just an accident.

3. Gary/Mallory - LVOE Gary big time - He is wonderful. Mallory needs valium. But she has a great attitude and they are doing well. My volume control on my tv is going to break I fear . . .

4. Kent/Vyxsin - She cracked me up - I can't think of exactly what she said, but Kent was complaining about being cold after the "frog" challenge, and she said she was too busy working to get cold! Tee hee! You show HIM Vyxsin! And I loved the multiple mentions of their makeup bags. Too funny!

5. Jet/Cord - Ya' know, I LOVED the Cowboys their previous season. And I LOVED how they never gave up and even when they screwed up, they took their medicine and made up the time. This Race they seem like much worse racers. It's frustrating. Before they were so over their heads - had never left their hometown before - and I guess they were out to prove they could keep up. This time, they don't seem to be trying as hard or something is amiss. Just doesn't seem like the same team this time.

Meh:
6. LaKisha/Jennifer - Though Jennifer did a great job at the samurai challenge, and she moved beautifully and for once didn't get on my nerves. This was one of their best legs. Still wish they weren't here though.

GAG ME:
7. Ron/Christina - Oh my god this man is SUCH A DRAG!!!! Bi### and moan all the time! He is a broken record . . . When the local pointed out the way to drive in Tokyo, he complained she didn't know what she was talking about. He said how much he loved Japanese culture and then groaned through the challenge. They both enjoyed a fabulous prayer ritual in a spectacular setting and IMMEDIATELY lost it and were at each other's throats. Good thing the Globetrotters weren't there - they might have gotten clobbered!

8. Margie/Luke - Were they in this episode? Follow the leader! But yes, Margie finally let Luke do a challenge and he made it through.

9. Jaime/Cara - Triple GAG! She hit a car and then resented the driver for calling the police instead of taking her money - as we are ALL SUPPOSED TO DO! She is awful! And did you see her almost body slam the guy when she said she was sorry as she was leaving?! Amazing!!!! BUT the one bright side - Did anyone else notice that she didn't complain that not everyone was speaking English?!!! She did say she couldn't understand them, but she didn't infamously scream about it! ;)

Philiminated: Mel/Mike - SO disappointing!!! I really like them for one thing. Mel is a saint and I love his attitude about God and how to be in the world. It's sweet Mike was so worried about his dad, but I didn't know he was in any trouble. Yet, that cold weather and mud couldn't have been good for him, and as Mike said, he would naturally keep going. I love how Mel said, I'd rather die out here with you than home in my bed (or something like that.) But I was screaming at the tv for them to at least outlast Jaime/Cara so THEY would be eliminated instead. Then they could go out the next leg if they wished to . . .

Sorry! Long winded for sure - but I don't have an opinion one way or another ;)

Not that I have an opinion one way or another ;)
