Is this really what they would be spending their time watching in Ghana? On one of the TVs there was a green A/V displayed on the top right corner, you don’t normally get that when your TV is connected to an aerial but rather when connected to something like a VCR or DVD player so it looks to me as if there were some shenanigans ---

I had been trying to erase that from my memory. On the other hand, maybe there is a demand for this.

I love following everyone’s comments after the race especially **zut’s _Taxi Assessment_**. However, I’m concurrently following _ **The Amazing Race: Asia** _ which is also in its second episode this season. Keep confusing the highlights between the two programs. ---

This was the point at which my brain went fuzzy and didn’t tune back in until the Philimination. A horrible line in a horrible episode.
