If you two raced, I would be soooo jumping up and down in the living room cheering you on. There would be squeaking and pointing and clapping. I think you should do it!!
This is, of course, because I wanna live vicariously through you and I can't apply myself (and Kev and I would be one of those teams EVERYONE HATES). *grins*
Oh right, THAT. That's why Kev hasn't applied to Survivor yet. I've agreed to singlemom for a bit if need be for him to do it, but *sighs* there's that job thing that's kinda important.
Silly work and practicality interfering with fun! So not fair...
It can't be the writer angle, though you might point out that the father/son writers did pretty well last season.
I laughed when the yoga instructors flubbed the license plate test. Brawn, no brains. I'd do it with my husband, but I'd be bleeped constantly and our divorce would immediately follow. Mostly because I'd have to eat the sushi/wasabi bomb. But we do know what diesel is and we do know how to drive a shift, which puts us ahead of many. I loved the season when they were on right-hand drive and everyone turned on the windshield wipers instead of the turn signal. But overall what I like about Amazing Race (as opposed to other shows) is that the spirit of cooperation and mind over nastiness almost always wins in the end. And couples that diss each other usually get eliminated.
Hmmm, eliminate them with lots of hand-waving trickery and a little magic.
I'd be the most bleeped contestant ever, they'd think they'd cast Gordon Ramsey. Not to mention that my participation in a food contest would almost certainly result in projectile vomiting.
On the plus side, I would have figured the license plates out easily.
