TAR Update

Would that Colin had in fact been thrown in jail. It would have been so funny and such a good bitchsmacking that he truly deserves. He really is a complete jerk and flattens his girlfriend, basically telling her what to think and quashing any real self esteem she has. Hopefully she is watching this and realizing what a bad relationship she is in.

Anyway, Colin was not thrown in prison and thanks to the heliopad hours, everyone caught up to each other in Dubai. So we had a fresh race. People were generally not too stupid although its interesting to see how many teams are having problems with money. The bowling moms are not and they lost all their money at the first non-elimination leg. The focus on money during the show made it something of a boring episode after the first 20 minutes, but sometimes you have to go through bad episodes now and again.

The Texas Twosome finished first again and I am getting more and more sure that they will end up in the final three, despite their penchant for self destruction.

Chip and Kim will stay in it, if only they keep a better eye on the money. Things are going to start getting tight soon.

The Christian Models seem to be doing okay, but they are getting picked apart by money issues as well. When it comes to pure racing talent, they're managing to hang in there.

The Bowling Moms keep getting behind due mostly to a combination of bad luck and small problems that mostly have to do with their age. But they are hanging in well and if they can catch a break with one of the front three in the right time, they might make it to the final three.

The Twins are going to go down soon. They may manage to get some money back, but they keep shooting themselves in the foot so often that they consistently finish near the back. This should catch up to them in the next leg or two.

There are two more non-elimination legs and the suspicion that Mrs. X and I have is that there will be one right before the final leg. This will probably effectively whittle the race down to two teams as the third team will lose their money and be at a serious disadvantage going into the final stretch. Would that it is the Texas Twosome who get buried at the end.
