I'm getting the TAR email too, and I KNOW I never signed up for it. However, two seasons ago, when I ran the FR TAR thread, I did correspond with some fellow who ran another online board. Perhaps he was associated with the producers? Maybe, because honest to gosh, they're doing everything this season that I'd complained they weren't doing. Helicopter shots of scenery, funny challenges (like Chermun slap-dancing), visiting countries that tourists like--Brazil, Germany, Italy....
Scary, sorta. Because once you say anything to anyone online, even here, the world can read it.
(Last month, I posted a thread criticizing tv host Craig Ferguson for Bush bashing and got a flaming response from someone who quoted chapter and verse of every word Craig had said the night before--was he part of the production team? I distinctly got that impression.)
I know what you mean. A couple weeks ago, Mystery, Emily and I joked about how addictive Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies are. Now it seems like Thin Mints are everywhere! :o
