If CBS has 9 year olds cutting off a chicken's head on Kid Nation--I say the crocodiles could get a tasty TAR treat! :yum:

Somehow I don't think it is a humanitarian chicken delivery to improve the egg consumption  of the locals! :lol:

Besides--it is all I can find to do with a chicken nearby! :lol3: :rotf: :lol3:

If a chicken dies at the hands of a racer I'll ban myself! *I think I can do that?*  :umn: If not then I'll ban someone else  :lol3:

I dunno, we don't know how the U-Turn works? Maybe whoever does the Roadblock has an extra task of delievering a chicken among other stuff?

I like that idea--I'd like to see Phil holding chickens! :luvu:

Okay--Speedbump==something to slow you down...Have we ever had teams receive a 10 minute penalty during a task before?? They have had to repeat it for doing it wrong, had to go to the back of the line...but a penalty??

U Turn I always thought was going to be do BOTH Detours....but here we see L/J doing something else entirely...

Which do we think the racers dole out? Does the U-turn take the place of the yield??

I thought the yield is not to be anymore, the new twists U-Turn Speed Bump takes its place.

Well that's what we all THINK anyway... but we haven't heard the rules for sure right?

If we hadn't heard the LA Blondes/Jason comments I would think this whole chicken thing was a fast forward!

But if U-Turn is turn around go back and do the detour again or do both detours--then this isn't a U-turn.

Speedbump--if this is speedbump then it means do another different task...

Question of the day: if you were Jason and y'all were in last place--would you let Lorena do the Roadblock even if it was "shopping"??

And who do you think does the roadblock for :

Ron/Christina
Don/Nicholas

And what are TK/Rachel more likely to do: Dance or DIG?

Well its Ron's turn to do the Roadblock, if they are taking turns that is but who knows? Like I thought it would be Kynts turn but we see Vyxsin doing the RB.

And hey I resent that remark :lol:! Like I was the only one who thought TBC last week! I mean really who started that and who fell into the trap  :snakes: 8) :naughtyd: . Would you like me to go back and bring it over?  :snicker: BRB!

Heh heh... I'm totally innocent...  :meow:  so I'm safe!  :angel:

I found this from Google's cache:  http://www.lefaso.net/article.php3?id_article=3196

In the tourist landscape of BURKINA FASO, one finds a quite curious site: the pond with the crowned crocodiles of Sabou. Sabou is a village, place chief of department located at 80 km in the south of capital OUAGADOUGOU, on axis OUAGA-BOBO in the province of Boulkiemdé. In the pond that this city shelters, live naturally dangerous but curiously inoffensive sauriens even flexible. The visitors who go to Sabou can see them on the bank or with the assistance of young people who make their business of them. Thanks to a chicken, they attract the crocodiles on the shore. One can then devote oneself to meetings of catch of sights with the possibility of going up on them if it is wished. The operation at most costs two thousand franks CFA (2000 CFA) to the visitors. The pond with the crocodiles of Sabou is very appraisal of the tourists who arrive at Burkina Faso. The famous musician jamaïcain JIMMY CLIFF even turned there of the sequences of his film "Bongo man". It would be tiresome to quote the names of the celebrities who came ressourcer or to change the ideas near these famous crocodiles. But how these crocodiles did arrive in these places?

Translated with BabelFish so it probably is a little off.

Dans le paysage touristique du BURKINA FASO, on trouve un bien curieux site : la mare aux crocodiles sacrés de Sabou. Sabou est un village , chef lieu de département situé à 80 km au sud de la capitale OUAGADOUGOU, sur l’axe OUAGA-BOBO dans la province du Boulkiemdé.

Dans la mare que cette cité abrite, vivent des sauriens naturellement dangereux mais curieusement inoffensifs voire dociles. Les visiteurs qui se rendent à Sabou peuvent les voir sur la berge ou avec l’aide de jeunes qui en font leur business. Grâce à un poulet , ils attirent les crocodiles sur le rivage . L’ on peut alors s’adonner à des séances de prise de vues avec la possibilité de monter sur eux si on le souhaite.

L’opération coûte tout au plus deux mille francs CFA (2000 CFA) aux visiteurs . La mare aux crocodiles de Sabou est très prisée des touristes qui arrivent au Burkina Faso . Le célèbre musicien jamaïcain JIMMY CLIFF y a même tourné des séquences de son film « Bongo man » . Il serait fastidieux de citer les noms des célébrités qui sont venues se ressourcer ou se changer les idées auprès de ces célèbres crocodiles . Mais comment ces crocodiles sont-ils arrivés en ces lieux ?


This would be about 50 miles from Ouagadougou I believe.

Thinking about it, a speed bump would be a slow down. You can't speed over one or trouble follows. A U-Turn for me would be either I missed a location or I have to turn back to get to a location.

When I was in Florida I watched the crocs being fed at gatorland or whatever the heck it was called but I'm pretty sure the meat that was fed to them was not alive :groan:? If I see a chicken eaten alive I'll cry :'(  ! Yes! I eat chicken but its not pretty when I buy it, just kind of naked and looks better when prepared :lol:. I cry for roadkill, I cried for the bunny that my cat was about to kill  *I rescued it!*. I'll cry tomorrow because its the first day hunting season and will wonder if that dead deer tied to someones car roof was one that I've been feeding the past year   :'(

rant off! :carryon:

Don't we have a sighting of a F/F team in Croatia?  Or did our local spy confuse the Goths with a all-female team?

If you are on the way to behead the chicken or feed it to a croc or catfish would you name it Phil?

NO Gman I'd be crying, lol. And to answer your other question our witness saw a check in sheet at the Detour while TK/Rachel were doing the Detour and the Goths were already checked off as in already been there done that with the blondes being not the same as the Goths but blonde and female, lol.

One more time!!

There is NO photographic evidence of a F/F team in Dubrovnik.

Our source DOES believe that she saw a F/F blonde team there (but remember she was at some points watching from a great distance so it could be hard to be sure.)

The F/F team (if seen) was definitely NOT confused with Kynt/Vyxsin as she saw the production sheet that had already checked the Goths through.

Okay?  :carryon:

My motto? Never name anything you might eat--or see eaten!! :o  :lol:

Welcome to RFF lovesongirl! I am beginning to like them more as I watch them progress. They all have (or had) a chance.

About that chicken, wouldn't it be a big diversion to have to travel 50 miles to feed the croc? I'm thinking they have to catch one. It might be as amusing as watching Lorena try to milk the camel.  :snicker:
