The Amazing Race: Family Edition--Live Thread

[EmilyGeiger]

The funniest thing to us last night was when the Gaghan kids were singing "She'll be coming round the mountain." The looks on the Aiellos faces was priceless. I know you like the sister team, but they are really too excitable for me. We were calling them the chatty Kathy's. :) Funny thing is though, that is exactly how I picture my 3 when they grow up. Blond and tenacious. :) The Shroeders(?), the family from NO, unless they really change, are my 2nd team I want to see eliminated. She made the comment that she thought people from the South were stupid!!! Hello? Maybe from NO but not the rest of the South you nut! And then he made his insensitive handicapped comment. ARRGh. Anyway since one of my top 3 teams was eliminated last night, I am no longer going to predict by who I like. I am afraid that will be the end of any team I choose. :)

According to a Wahington Times story, the TAR was at the Space Camp in Alabama and they sid they had 10 teams. I wonder when a team is eliminated they still travel with the other remaining teams, but are kept out of camera view.

NASA nixes 'Amazing Race' agreement Jul. 14, 2005 at 12:25PM CBS's "Amazing Race" hit a stumbling block when its contestants hit the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Ala., it was reported Thursday. The New York Post said NASA officials refused to sign the network's $10 million confidentiality agreement aimed at preventing details of the Emmy-Award-winning show to leak out ahead of its airing. The contestants reportedly performed a number of challenges at the Center Monday using several astronaut-training devices. Although Space Center officials refused to sign the standard confidentiality agreements, they refused to give out any details of the taping, the Post said. "Race" reportedly started filming last Thursday with 11 teams. Only 10 were present in Huntsville, meaning one elimination had already taken place

I don't think so sweetie..

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEE

[mystery-ak]

Hmmmmmmm...that's interesting....I wonder if this means they are not traveling outside of the US...

[Maximus of Texas]

Don't be offended if I don't take your word when it comes to weather.

But, if it holds true, there is going to be a ton of friskiness around these parts, I guarantee.

[PaulaB]

Don't be offended if I don't take your word when it comes to weather.

OK but if I am right..we are even ;)

[Maximus of Texas]

No, we're only even when you come out to our place and do a rain dance that will produce a soaking rain.

[PaulaB]

30% chance tonight...dancing as we speak ;)

[Maximus of Texas]

With high heels, I'm sure. Are we talking Elaine Benes type of dancing?

[PaulaB]

Learned this in Arkansas

[EmilyGeiger]

I would kind of like to see them do just a US Amazing Race. There are many parts of the United States I have never seen and would like to get a chance to see. The episode where they go to Huntsville space and rocket center should be very good. It is a great place for kids! Go Gaghans. :)

[Maximus of Texas]

Dance like that and you'll get fire and brimstone, not rain.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

And I love Texas women. They grow them bigger there, you know.
