The Amazing Race 2011: Unfinished Business

Apologies if this is a D_B but I searched to no avail.

At any rate, I'm going to meet Phil tonight at a screening of his new movie, about his bike trip across America, so I thought I'd point out that I think it's insane they've let the team who lost because they had to pee come back to try again!

TELL PHIL I LOVE HIM!

 

Globetrotters and the Cowboys? You're cool.
Jaime Edmondson? You're VERY cool.
Deaf kid and his mom? Go eff.
The rest? Eh. We'll see.

 

So the event last night was pretty cool. Got my picture made (as they say in Tenn.) with Phil, met Jeff Probst and the tall blonde doc winner.

The movie was pretty interesting, as the trek drags on he gets more and more worn out. Funny twist at the beginning, touching moments throughout. And seeing them ride the I-15 from Lancaster to Baker is pretty bizarre. But the movie could use an editor, and could be trimmed to about an hour and not lose much.

You can tell from the movie and from seeing him in person that Phil is a really charmer, and he takes a sincere interest in everyone around him. Good to see a good guy succeed. And he raised a ton of bucks for MS.

Here's the site; you can buy the movie.

Did you tell him?

 

He was there with his wife.

Who makes Jillian Michaels look like Peter Griffin. She had some cannon arms!

 

I'm pulling for the goth couple, although I'm still not sure if they're 2 girls or a girl and a guy.

 

I can't wait for Mike and Mel White again too! They were fun together

 

I agree on the deaf kid. It wasn't because you were deaf that people dislike you, it's because you are an asshole. Hopefully he saw he was a prick and changed. Doubt it.

 

I can do without the goth couple.

I can do without Mel & Mike.

And I really don't care to put up with the cowboys again (Dear God!!).

My money would be on the Globetrotters. Just sorry NYPD Detectives are not in on this.

 

Isn't one of them in jail?

 

One of which....? Globetrotters or Detectives? In either case, I do not have the answer to your question, Wenders.
