Oswald and Danny

SPOILER ALERT: don't read if you haven't see the episode from tonight!

This post concerns the TV show The Amazing Race which here in the US is showing season 11, the All Star edition.




I really liked tonight's episode of The Amazing Race but I bet there's a lot of people pissed off at the Beauty Queens. I actually like them--they have so much enthusiasm for the competitive spirit of the race. In fact, I like all four remaining teams though Charla and Mirna do annoy me frequently. They're often so self-riotious it's quite annoying. And Mirna is always whining!! (oh, I always have to drive)

That said, the team I'd like to see win the most is Danny and Oswald. And they nearly blew it tonight. It's being labeled as karma getting back at you but that's silly. The Beauty Queens (BQs) were the instigators so they're the ones in the hot seat and they finished first. Karma? LOL Personally it's not the BQs that I think are the most underhanded--they're quite honest their desire to win--it's Mirna. That woman is always trying to sabotage the strong teams any way she can. I think she's cute so I try to look past that trait though. ;-)

The BQs did try to pull a fast one at the end of the episode when they approached Eric and Danielle and told them that they'd bribed Danny and Oswald to yield any other team but didn't specify which one. That was quite brazen since they totally asked Oswald and Danny to yield Eric. The BQs aren't very worried about the abilities of Charla and Mirna but they do want Eric knocked out of the race.

BTW, what's up with Danielle and her boobs? They're definitely the best you can buy but why does she always push them out so far? Were they a recent purchase that she's really proud of? They are quite appealing but there is a place for some subtlety! LOL Despite her exhibitionism--or maybe because of it--I like her and Eric too. Their dynamics together aren't great but I hope they stay together. It gives average looking guys something to aspire to. You go, Eric!

So anyway, isn't it freaky that there were two non-elimination legs in a row? I'm very glad it worked out that way since I didn't want to see Oswald and Danny booted out but it was weird.

I haven't been able to see it for 2 weeks, but I agree with you about Mirna and Charla.

Nitroflex at home

I mentioned a few days ago that I'd purchased off of Craig's List an exercise machine. A Nitroflex, to be more specific, for the grand sum of $75. The boxes you see to the left were bought by the seller as discontinued merchandise over a year ago and stored in his back yard storage shed. You might be able to see some of the bugs and such that had made their homes on these boxes. I left them out on my deck for a few days before opening them to allow the insects to leave gracefully or die in the sun. The picture to the left is the pieces from the box, unboxed, and up in one of my upstairs bedrooms. For the most part it wasn't difficult to move it around though two pieces were heavy and a number of them were kinda long and bulky to be wandering about the house with. Surprisingly, this kit didn't require any extra tools. There were two allen keys and one combo wrench included in the boxes and that was all it took to put it together. The whole thing only took about half an h

flea!

Yep, that's one of those damn blood suckers. Renee's revenge on my neglecting her feelings, no doubt. We guys just have it so tough! LOL This here is a picture of my ankle and while it's not very obvious, I guess, there's a bunch of flea bites on there. Itches a bit, dammit. The annoying part is that the damn fleas can't use my blood--fleas are mostly species specific and don't have the proper enzymes to make meals out of blood from other critters--so they're not getting anything out of biting me. It's just frustration and starvation driving their biting. Well, I guess the real annoying part is the bites themselves, but I wanted to seem a little sensitive there for a moment. But no more of that. Kill the fleas! While most of the bites are on my ankles and calves, there's an occasional bite up higher like these 4 on my thigh. They're kinda hard to see through the hair but I wasn't able to focus on the skin with all the hair in the way. Sorry.

ankles: the sequel

I've heard rumors that one post about my sprained ankle wasn't enough so here's more pictures to satisfy a public hungry for swollen flesh... This was taken the morning after I sprained the ankle. There's starting to be a black and blue mark from the blood vessels leaking At this point the swelling is still very localized to the lateral side of the left ankle and presumably that's the tendon that was affected (very likely since I really screwed it up 15 years ago and it's got extra play in it) In this picture, taken on Sunday evening about 25 hours after the injury, you can see the edema, or swelling, has spread out over the top and entire lateral side of the foot. There's also more evidence of hematoma at the skin above the metatarsals. At the same time, there's still significant swelling at the original site to the point that it totally eclipses the left ankle. Here's a lateral view taken at the same time as the photo above to show the hematoma bet
