Seriously, those for want of a better word ‘people’ really can’t be good for my blood pressure. She doesn’t have the energy that Rolly does. Well, do you have the energy that the other 4 girls on the other teams have? Or the old guy with the sore toe? Because, you know, they did it. ---

> [@Otto](#): > > They’re messing with us. They’re fuggin’ _messing_ with us. The damn Weevils, after all that pissing and moaning, are gonna wander off for two minutes and find the earliest departure time. Actually, I think the earliest departure time has been taken by the Bransens. If the Weavers continue, they’re stuck with 5:55, if the cards we were shown are to be trusted. Thank Heaven (or Nevaeh) for small favors. ---

> [@BigDummy](#): > > At this point I can only hope that Ted is watching this tonight, realizes what he’s done, and is reduced to repeatedly punching himself in the groin in an effort to atone. Heehee! I love you, ya **BigDummy**! Yes to everything so far—the prayers to Jeebus and Santa, and the fervent hopes that the Weavers quit…along with the knowledge that they won’t. Nooooooo! She rises again. Crap. ---

I want somebody to open the door mid-flight and start handing out parachutes. _That’s_ a Road Block. 🙂 ---

\“When you give, it will be given back.” Did you hear the mystical music there? I heart the editors. ---

Best music cue of the Race! Ma Weevil quotes some Bible thing and they bust out a little Hindu riff. Awesome! ---

The “Rolly can’t clear the gate” music is the second best cue of the Race. ---
