The biggest example of something getting away from them before this was probably the car that went under the semi and then went up the embankment that was at the end of the road to stop it, flipping over onto the other side of the wall. Luckily, there was just an empty field over there.
Mal: Go on. Get in there. Give your brother a thrashing for messing up your plan. River: He takes so much looking after.

The Mythbusters guys handled themselves really well on the 11 PM news.
Any Survivor talk here? I want Ozzy to win, and hope the snippet shown for next week (final ep, I think) is merely suspense-building editing re his competition on Redemption Island against the most recently-voted off person. It has me in suspense at the moment, that's for sure. I hope Brandon is the next to go. Can't stand him.

Kathy,
I heard that ep will not air.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Brandon is SO damaged and lost. I don't want him to win and I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him, but I feel bad for him.

Huh, according to a commenter over on BuddyTV, the snowboarders were over two hours behind the checking on the finish mat. So even with the overly helpful cabbies, they probably wouldn't have made it.

Trust my rage
Scrappy, are you talking Survivor?
Because in that case, I would love to know what is eating Brandon. There is obviously so much more to his story but I have no idea what it is.

I am, Stephanie. I was sorry to see Cochran go, but loved his last speech.

I haven't actually seen the last ep. But Cochran was an interesting guy to me. He and Brandon are the most interesting of the personalities even if they would both drive me crazy in real life.

Fiendish clues and tasks! If you're going to win a million, you'd better be able to handle them.
Kudos to Ernie for reasoning out what to do about the missing 1 key. I predict Bill or Cathi would have had a big advantage because for sure they encountered similar setups on typewriters back in Ye Olde Days.
(And heh, being a faster typist would not have necessarily helped -- those lever-keys are apt to jam if you go fast. Hunt and peck has an actual advantage....)
If Cindy's parents don't think Ernie is the bee's knees by now there's no hope for them.
Let us pause to admire Jeremy for landing his simulator on the first try. That is SO not easy to do.
