MR SIMPSON, PLEASE DO NOT FEED MY GOD A PEANUT: While the cast on this season of the Amazing Race is not very compelling, the last couple of legs have been surprisingly well structured, with plenty of opportunity to pass other teams. Last night, despite having a (seemingly) long Speed Bump, Ken and Tina managed to get back in the middle of the pack, courtesy of some very bad racing by the frat boys and the divorced chicks. A couple of other thoughts:

Why do some racer not read (or at least not seem to comprehend) the instructions on the clue? There are hundreds of envelopes atop that tower, do you suppose any one of them is fine? Especially when they are labeled "Try Again"?

Why do some racers decide, based on no evidence whatever, that the clue has to be somewhere? The TAR staff are going to bury the clues in a bird-litter box? Really?

What happened to Phil's greeter?

Finally, where can I get an electrified Ganesh? That's better than a Sacred Heart velvet painting, for my money.
