Because books.

I know! Oh, and I LOVED when they all hugged Mark. So cool.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All the dance groups seemed really supportive, which I always love.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Hm. I call produce interference on this leg. WAY too convenient.

Oh, I agree. I just don't care because I love them!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Totally. But that was a bitch of a challenge, mostly due to the judging.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, and honestly, he probably shouldn't have passed him on that last one, according to the standard he'd held earlier in the day. But it really was brutal, and he was sick to begin with. I like them a bunch, including what they said and did today, but I still think they're not long for the competition.

Although at this point, there's not too much competition left!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

for those who like watching the shows for singers, there's going to be one called "Duets" - I caught a bit of an ad for it; I have no idea when, can't remember which network ... I'm not being very helpful here, am I?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I like that the editing freeze-framed the error for us dance-impaired viewers.

Makes the contestant who got thru in one try look VERY impressive.

Mark & Bopper set a high watermark for supportive teammating.

You know, I would have chosen the three-wheel rickshaw driving challenge in a heartbeat. I'm impressed that the one driver was so awful that she made an inadvertent wheelie.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I just got caught up with Amazing Race and OMG. If they weren't fan favorites before, they darned well better be now.

Seriously. In all ways. Including the offer to leave, but also the bit where he tells him, no, I am not all right, but please just get out of my face so I can do this, and he does. And yet they're just there for each other, all the way through.
