Racing to "The Iraq" and Back
The newest season of The Amazing Race begins a week from Sunday. I happened to check out the show's website and discovered that one of the teams is a pair of dating models. Oh, boring, right? Every season has at least one pair of dating models. What makes this pair so special?
Well, one of them is this person:
Upon reading this news, my emotions are mixed. Firstly, people who are dumb make me sad. That people who are dumb can find fame and success if they are also beautiful women makes me angry. That this woman became a national joke makes me...a bit amused, truth be told.
That she has finagled her way onto one of my favorite shows ever makes me suspicious. I guess everybody deserves a chance to redeem themselves. However, I'll say this: you better not be in this to extend your 15 minutes, Vanna! The Amazing Race is hard, man, and people who go on the show just to publicize their careers do not tend to acquit themselves that well. Case in point: that girl who was an aspiring country singer. She did not come out of that thing looking too good. And neither did her boyfriend.
How much do I miss the Whites right now?

Erin, I read everyone of your messages, but for some reason I am getting two or three copies of the same message lately? Grandpa
