TAR: Goodbye, Danny & Oswald! You ran a good game at least in the sense of having some class, wit, and out of the box thinking. If you'd been Yielded, you wouldn't have been crying that it was sooooo unfair.
Angel: Just admit it: you think you're gonna ride in, save the day, and sweep Buffy off her--Spike: Like you're not thinking the same thing. Angel: I'm already seeing somebody. Spike: What, dog girl?

Experimental TV: Non-Fiction
This thread is part of an experiment to discern the Buffistas' future interest in television discussion. It will remain open until June 1st, 2007, upon which date there will be spirited debate regarding the infinite possibilities for our board's development. This thread is for non-fiction tv, including but not limited to documentaries and reality shows. [NAFDA]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just remembered that the blondies came in 4th last year, in similar circumstances -- they had the 30 minute penalty, but legitimately came in last in the leg. That seems somehow fair to me -- they didn't get screwed because of their performance in the previous leg, just the current one.

I like the BQs. They're good natured and race well (except when they do the eyerolly things like miss the detour or forget the gps thingie). They're fun to watch.

Art Crawl!!!
They really seem to be enjoying themselves -- which neither of the remaining teams seem to and they aren't taking everything about the race as some sort of sign or morality/immorality.
Much speculation that the BQs mess up and Charla/Mirna win. I hope not. (Speculation based on the season long 'evil' edit the BQs have been getting and the reverse edit on Charla/Mirna.)

Charla is usually the more clueful of her duo, but I kept having to laugh at the poor Navy guy who had to remind her again and again that she shouldn't touch the screen of the GPS device....

"Ma'am. I said you're not supposed to touch the screen. Ma'am. Don't touch the screen. Not at all. Ma'am...." Poor guy.
I can't imagine Charla and Mirna winning -- that would be a travesty!

Though when the woman pointed out to Danielle that she might be hitting the buttons on the sides of the GPS, I wondered if that was maybe the problem - and either Charla didn't notice the buttons there or wasn't able to hold the thing without touching them.

IIRC, depending on what type of dwarfism she has, her hands may be unusually proportioned, which I suppose could add to the problem -- perhaps the only way she could get a grip on it was the "wrong" way. But given how flustered she seemed, it could just be panic-stupidity.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Charla's a less offensively irritating person than Mirna, but neither of them has ever struck me as being all that bright. I just don't think she was paying attention when the guy was explaining how to use the navigator.

Also quite possible.
