Thanks

I heard it to be only 1 licorice cookie. 600 boxes of cookies. (so if 10 cookies per box.....munch on a possible 6000 cookies to find the licorice cookie). Oswald was correct in being skeptical & E/D were damn lucky that D found that cookie.
Reminded me of Colin eating that chocolate in Argentina. :lol:

hound 109, I'll wager that there were at least 5 licorice cookies among the 7200 since it was theoretically possible for each of the teams to elect that detour. There were at least 12 cookies per box and probable more than that (see Puddin's screenshots in POST #25 for visual). So that would be an average of 1440 cookies for each licorice one. Any way you look at it, it was a monumental task and Eric/Danielle were lucky to find it relatively quickly.

I thought each team had to choose their own table--so if there was only one cookie per table, it truly was the needle in the hatstack task.

peach : Mirna was actually nice in person.. maybe it's because I told her I was a fan while we were pushing the bicycle. But she was also not so nice for making us do a little celebration dance after we finished the task. Thank god that didn't make the final cut. It was nasty. LOL. And I just rewatched the episode again and.. wha-hey! I actually got a line sneaked in there!
mswood, much as I like them I'd have to agree that Charla/Mirna actually ran a rather poor leg. They lost their two hour lead on the cookies task! (there were no hours of operations for the task). And I know people are complaining about the time penalty, but I think the time between them reaching the pitstop and Eric/Danielle's was over an hour. But again, I can't tell that for sure.
I was surprised to see Danny buying the newspaper from the gas station (which was quite a distance away, and where we helped Charla/Mirna get their taxi). My guess is that all the newspapers in the nearby houses have already been collected by the other teams.
puddin:
Are all those people helping Mirna your friends Izad?
Can I have your autograph? :luvya: :hearts:
