Oh and Mallory said:

"Oh My God, this is like Miss America all over again......"

(referring to the 'bikini' thing she was wearing..)

".....only 50lbs heavier".

She is teeny at the moment - what size was she in Miss America??


EDIT:

No way that's 50lbs difference.. she's definitely a little skinner but 50lbs!?













David In Indy:
Yeah, I really like Mallory a lot Kelda. But I'm still rooting for Margie and Luke. Luke tugs at my heartstrings. I remember him breaking out in tears when he saw the poverty in India and I realized he's a guy with a tremendous amount of empathy. There's just something about him that makes me want to cheer for him and his Mom. But, if Margie and Luke get eliminated, I'll probably switch over to Mallory and Gary. They are both very likeable. :)

Kelda:
There is something about Luke that I don;t like.. I just can;t quite put my finger on it.... but I do like that hes an uber fan. I like fans on the race rather than some casting stunt.

This week I loved the look of Li Jiang, China.. it looked sp pretty!

I love that during that wish task, flight time said he wished that he knew his zodiac sign... :laugh:

I'm not too keen on Luke and Margie either.  They really got into hating Keesha and Jen last time.  It'll be interesting to see if they U-turn them next week, based on the preview.

Kynt had the patience of a saint with Vixen.  She was so scattered, I was surprised he let her do the zodiac challenge at all.  I didn't expect the Zev and Justin meltdown either.

Kelda:
Yes, that was blown out of all proportiopn with the stresses of the race I thought... and I like how they referenced it last night.. and showed a little 'bitch' clip!

Re Kent.. (I keep wanting to all him Kynt still - apparently his dad's name is Kent and his dad passed away last year due to MS and so he changed his name back in his honour) , I was thinking the same that she was so patient with her... which is good becasue it means the team doesn't spontaneously combust.. which just donesn;t work when you are racing. I don't think I could stay that calm in the face of it all..

Jamie has been interviewed and says she employs the same tactic for Cara.. biting her toungs and just getting down to the race because otherwise Cara would fall apart and that's no good when they are racing.. Also intersting - Jamie is at law school and studied for her finals while on the race... so any time they were travelling or waiting for conenctions she got her study notes out. Wow wee.. good on her for even attempting to do that.

The Zev and Justin thing - they've been doing so well that you kinda forget that Zev has Aspergers and that that will effect how well he can play the game. i can imagine all the crowds and the new sights and sounds were not condusive to Zev's thought process.. and the stress added to that just made him slow right down.
