no chicken, no check-in

The star of this week's leg of Amazing Race is the chicken that each team has to tote around with them from pretty much the start of the leg til they get to the pit stop. I spent the entire episode watching in anticipation for one of the teams to lose a chicken and be denied check-in at the pit stop. But alas, all teams are responsible and show up with chicken in hand. How boring.

In any event, the dumb blonde team "u-turned" Lorena and Jason, which slowed them down immensely and ultimately resulted in the elimination of Lorena and Jason from the race. And now all the teams HATE the blondes (whose names I cannot quite bring myself to remember) so they are pretty much screwed for the rest of the race.

Meanwhile, the Giants suck.
