[silent_jonny]

Well goodnight, Buddy. It's not a TAR thread without you :)

Mike, it was good to talk to you. Happy Veterans Day!

[silent_jonny]

Okay :)

[A knight without armor]

I am glad they are gone.

The grandfather cracks me up. Also the father. You have to be quick and flexible for this gig.

[I Drive Too Fast]

Who could forget the Weavers?

Next weeks previews looks hilarious. There is a lot of good bickering. According to Lorena her camel is out of milk and she is out of patience.

I hope the catty guy goes first with his friend. I don’t care about the gay part but I can’t stand the bitching throughout the show!!!!!!!! Ugh!!!

(((TAR Recap Ping)))

The abridged recap is posted separately below for
everyone’s convenience. Read the full recap at CBS

LORENA & JASON VAULT AHEAD;
KATE & PAT SINK

In a leg that took Teams to Amsterdam, Ron clashed with Nicolas & Donald at the airport and later butted heads with daughter Christina over his treatment of her. Meanwhile, Lorena & Jason sailed through both events to claim victory while married ministers Kate & Pat became the second Team eliminated.

Grandpa, for the last time, put on your pants!

Stepping on the mat in last place, married ministers Kate & Pat received the bad news from Phil that they had been eliminated from the Race. On the experience, Pat reflected, “I think what came out of this for both of us is the realization that we can still have a lot of fun together.” Kate added, “We just wish we could have lasted so much longer and more of a chance to show people who we are.”

Eliminated

All in all, I didn’t find the ministers to be all that bad. That being said, I am glad they are gone. And we only had to suffer their one kiss last night.

I was just catching up with the thread (I read it later so I won't know in advance who got the axe) and I see that everyone feels the same about good ol' Ron that I do! GEEZ, he gets under my skin! Can't we get him eliminated and keep her?!

She needs to follow the lead of the Spanish King when he told Chavez "Why don't you just shut up?!"

So far I like Team BroSis.

Team Pops needs to remain fully clothed at all times.

Team Prissy is better than I thought they'd be, who knew Goths could navigate.

Team Daddy Dearest needs to learn to shut up. He says such unfortunate things. Really, they must remain 'positive'.

Find Ron hard to take also. Was interesting to see how furniture got into houses in Amsterdam. They must have very narrow staircases. I’d be a nervous wreck watching my stuff being hoisted up like that.

[tob2]

That team was the very worst IMHO!

Episode #3:
“Please, Lord, Give Me Milk”

The nine remaining teams must milk
several stubborn camels to receive a clue.

The race resumes tonight at 8pm EST, after football and 60 Minutes

As always, if you want on or off this ping list, just let me know.

[Michael.SF.]

They must have very narrow staircases.

At one time (1600-1700's?)the Dutch paid a tax based on the number of steps from floor to floor and the width of the stairways. As a result the stairways are both narrow and have a high riser.

[pbear8]

Must be similar to the British window tax.

[pbear8]

Hi Jonny, I’ll be watching tonight. I’m currently watching one of my eBay items sell better than I’d hoped!!

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Too harsh? Ya think Ron?

[silent_jonny]

I’m here :)
