"We have trust issues." Mylar

But I also couldn't figure out what they'd bleeped in that sentence so I am maybe untrustworthy.

It looked to me like she said "What am I, retarded? I got a gimpy leg?" Which, if so, just makes me love the show more and more. FWIW, I didn't think she ran all that slowly. She still beat out whinypants Jen who really, really needs to check herself. Did she really expect H&A to let her win? Hendekea was far more gracious than I would have been under similar circumstances. Still love TK & Rachel and the Goths and the Grandpa team. Agreed that Lorena and John had a much better leg, but I still was not sad to see them go. Only a matter of time before she had yet another melt down. Their send off interview was so sad because they're relationship seems completely doomed even though I bet they really do like each other.

ANTM: Paulina Porizkova. Huh. I'll miss the Twig.

Paulina Porizkova is replacing Twiggy on ANTM:

Awesome! I will NOT miss the Twig (though I do miss Janice something fierce). I have no idea if Paulina will be interesting or not....but I'm surprised Tyra would allow a young hot woman who is also a model to be on the panel with her! What if Paulina disagrees with Tyra (oh, i hope she does...)?!?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Paulina's got to be 10 years older than Tyra, doesn't she??

Close.

Paulina: born 1965 [link]

Tyra: born 1973 [link]

Yeah, but that's closer than Twiggy or Janice!

True fact.

It's possible I'm distracted by the Fresh Direct (grocery delivery ads) that have her as the "busy mom."

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

TK and Rachael better buy themselves a sense of direction fast if they want to go much further, though. I can think of three times just offhand when they lost time by traipsing around randomly.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

There was a moment when the Blondes were at the bike/load stage that the camera showed a loose chicken and I was hoping they'd get to the mat without it. It was just a misdirect.

Love Paulina, but, 1965? Wasn't she a supermodel in the early 80s?
