Kat, I am so afraid that they're going to win.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Did Don call Nick his bitch? Cause if so, that is made of awesome.
He totally did. Or, at least, that's what I heard, too.
Poor TK and Rachel. I totally couldn't figure out why they were doing all the tasks until the last possible second, when I realized it had to be non-elim.

That was the last non-elim. But with the three hour lead everyone has on them AND the extra task - I fear that unless there is massive bunching or extraordinary bad luck there is just NO WAY the Hippies can make up the time.
When they were at the travel agency I notice that TK AND Rachel both seemed extremely tired.

"We have trust issues." Mylar
Yeah, once I saw that they weren't getting Guido/Who'ed, I knew it was non-elim, but more than 3 hours behind AND the Speed Bump is a tough row to hoe. I hope they can come back from all that. A Hippies/Nick & Don/Ron & Christina final three would be the best final three since . . . ever - not one team I'd be sad to see win. And a Don/Nick win? Would be the best win since Chip & Kim. "He's like my bitch." You salty old dog, you. Hee!
Is this the shortest amount of time they've spent in India? Only one task? And they didn't even have to take the train? Boo.

A three-hour bunching is pretty likely, between flights and getting places at night and all that mishegas.

'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"
One can only hope.
Christina rocks, Don and Nicholas rock together, I'm even found of Ronald in his irascible and cantankerous and professorial way -- he's so predictable! And TK and Rachel were graceful and sportsmanlike, which is all I would hope to be in their situation.
REALLY loved the shot of Ron offering Don a snack as they waited.
It's a mystery to me why, with all their bickering and thrashing and drama and generally spending all.that.energy. fruitlessly, Nate and Jen haven't been eliminated, let alone just miss out on first place repeatedly. But they've ended up working extra hard, and that should be catching up with them. Feh.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
A three-hour bunching is pretty likely, between flights and getting places at night and all that mishegas.
Yeah - there aren't going to be that many flights to Alaska (or wherever), so that three hour lead could disappear before the first commercial break.
Right now I'm rooting for Nick and Don, with a small part of me hoping for Christina to win the Zach Prize For Putting Up With The Most Shit From Her Partner.

Nick and Don have really grown on me - for some reason they didn't grab me at first - and I'd love to see them win. At the end of the day, though, anyone but Nate and Jen is good enough for me.

I went to the CBS website hoping to find a promo for next week's TAR (I because managed to miss it last night) instead I found Phil's Video diary.

Oh! I forgot to mention this, but someone gave us the Amazing Race DVD game for xmas, and we had a blast. Most of it is just a geography quiz, but it's totally Philtastic.
