Wednesday, 7:55 am: On last night's Amazing Race, the pretty boy Christian model wanted to make his girlfriend go down into a cave in Egypt for a roadblock challenge, and got mad at her when she wasn't hauling a couple hundred pounds of rocks fast enough for him. Last week, she almost passed out trying to eat a kilo of caviar at the roadblock. Yeah, that's a team that's working together.

Meanwhile, no teams were actually eliminated last night, which was an interesting twist. Instead, the last place team (the bowling moms) have to start the next leg with no money. The first place team (the non-Christian pretty couple) has something like a 12-18 hour lead, but the scenes from next week make it appear that doesn't last. Which is fine; without any discernable personalities, they just aren't much fun to watch. Seeing the Twins and the Bowling Moms battling for last place is more interesting, because I have a sense of who they are as people. Colin and Christie? Might as well be animated manniquins, really.
