The Amazing Race 8

Okay, yeah, so did I say how much I love the Ghagans? Cause I do.

I think Carissa is going to grow up to be Janelle from Big Brother.

And okay, so when I say I like the Weavers, I really only like the son. I love how the other kid's mom was like- OMG- dont' talk to him, he's evil. Like seriously, grow up.

Oh how I love you Ghagans and Weaver boy.

And why does everyone like the Linz family? I like the sister- but the brothers are a bunch of immature, farting, idiots.

I missed this last episode because my mom was getting her amateur radio license, but all I have to say is: GO GODLEWSKIS! Did I spell that right? oO

Yah...
That's the attraction to AR I think is to see these Americans trying to get by in different countries.
Since we don't have that yet.. it is getting kind of bland.
Oooo they're going to some other US spot.... whoopdidoo!

I know. And it's getting kinda boring. I mean are they going to leave the US at all?

Yes, they will be leaving the US, but I heard that flying TEN families of 4 to different countries gets very expensive, so they are maybe trying to elminate some in the US before they go to any exotic countries.

Matt, Carissa will grow up to be Janelle.

But with a lisp.

I wanted the little kids to go to India or something and see the poor children, and then not be whining about not having the Dooney and Burke handbag they have always wanted.

I didn't see that, good eye.

But this episode was alright. I still wanted to smack the crap out of the two kids in the Paolo family. I mean, you say how your brother and mom are the same yet you freak out over a lousy papercut. What a whimp.

As for the Weaver family, I felt bad for them but I think they were just over-exaggerating the "We can't go to the racetrack". It seemed so fake to me.

And the daughter who didn't stop crying, my God, get a hold of yourself. Don't freak out in front of other teams, I would've smacked her too.

Um, yeah, I'm violent.

I'm so cheering for the Linz family... they're having fun and not really stressing out all that much which I like watching.

The Weaver family need to go. Before the Paolo.
Yeah the Paolo family is annoying but the Weaver family is getting on my last nerve.
Blah blah blah.. dad died and all that mess. But really... do we need to get reminded of it every single episode?
The editors need to stop trying to force us to like them aka feel sorry for them, b/c it's not working as far as I can tell.

Are you kidding? Forget smack? I would've left her in Louisiana!

Well, considering they were in New Orleans and the Hurricane was going to hit, I don't think that's a good idea. But I understand what you mean.

Oh little kids. You never dissapoint me. WHERE IS HIS LUCKY PEN? HIS LUCKY PEN? :roflol:

I think the whole show should just be the little kids. Yay!

Okay, but the racetrack thing was just mean of the producers. And how scary is the whole hurricane thing and being in Lousiana. I wonder what happened to the family that lived there?

I'm so glad they're finally leaving the US. They didn't say where they were going, did they?

I liked then the Gaghan family were in the trailers.
Carissa: 'I don't like these trailers, they're evil'.

Also, I don't think Lake Pontchartrain is one of the grat leaks.

He said if it was as big as the Great Lakes. Don't diss my boy. XD

I think the country they go to is actually only Mexico for a detour. That's sorta how they make it sound. I don't know though.

A Roadblock is a task that only one person from each team may perform. In this Roadblock, players must run across the Mexican border without being caught by border patrol. Once they reach California, they will receive their next clue.

OMG I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read that cause I would've spewed it all over the place.... too funny :roflol:
