Title: EP5 commentary
Post by: puddin on December 02, 2007, 11:53:39 AM
Bad news for some but probably good news for our beloved TAR ratings-- so sometimes you just have to take the good with the bad.

*Note to self, ask Santa for a satellite dish*


Thanks to Ken TARAsia Fan

Ok, here is the distribution map (http://www.the506.com/nflmaps/2007-13-CBS.html) for the CBS NFL games this Sunday. Remember, for much of the Eastern and Central Time Zones, there will be an early game.

But there is a significant portion in the East and Midwest that will get the Cleveland/Arizona game. The following areas face a potential delay in TAR:

Atlanta (sorry, Peach)
Western North Carolina
Portions of South Carolina
St. Louis including surrounding areas in Illinois
Minneapolis including most of Minnesota
Upper Wisconsin
Eastern North Dakota
Eastern Michigan
All of Ohio
Parts of Indiana
Parts of Kentucky
Most of West Virginia
Most of Pennsylvania including Pittsburgh and Philadelphia (sorry, puddin)
South Jersey

Sorry guys!!

At least you only have to worry about a delay, I have to worry about the snow storm causing my satellite not to work  :cmas13

PREVIOUSLY ON .. THE AMAZING RACE:

Phil: Eight teams left the remote village of Bingo, Burkina Faso, to the capital of Ouagadougou. Kynt/Vixsyn got a warm welcome from a village. Nate/Jenn battled Azaria/Hendekea for 1st. A photo finish, and a tough pill to swallow for Jenn. A new element of the Race (U-Turn) caused tension for Shana/Jenn, and angered Lorena/Jason, sealing their fate.

Seven teams remain. Who will be eliminated next?

Wheres that emoticon?  And exactly what color is stupid?

But as Ken says, college bowl series.  It determines who ranks where and who gets to play who.
Title: Re: EP5 commentary

BCS=Bowl Championship Series or four bowls and one championship game to determine college football's national champion.
Title: Re: EP5 commentary
Post by: mswood on December 02, 2007, 07:09:40 PM
Ok, no one asked me to stop.

Phil: This is Ouagadougou. In the middle of what was once a tribal kingdom, Hotel Deville, the 4th pitstop in a Race around the world.

Will Shana/Jenn's disagreement lead to more dissension?

CLUE: Az/Hend, 6:45 am. Fly to Vilnius, Lithuania.
Phil: When they land, find marked cars and drive to St. Anne's Church for the next clue.

Az conf: I tell Hendekea exactly what I'm thinking, to her face.

Nate/Jenn, 6:46 am.
Jenn conf: We have come SO close, we are FULL of fire! We will just RAGE through!

CLUE: To book your tickets, you must use an official ticketing office.
Oops ... Burkina Faso's airport is closed this morning.
Not allowed to book tix on the internet, but Hend wants to use it anyway, to search best flights.

Jenn wants to wait until 9:00 when everything opens, and will check Air France on the 'net.

Ron/Christina, 7:17 am.
Ron: Lithuanians make some great pastries, as I understand it!
Nic/Don, 7:18 am.
Nic makes fun of Gramps' forgetfulness.
Kynt/Vyx, 7:22.

And based on the footage, it appears we had another non standard Pit Stop period.  It couldn't have been 12 hours.  Otherwise I believe people would have checked in after the sunset.  While have to check.

Post by: mswood on December 02, 2007, 07:17:06 PM
Kynt conf: I've always wanted to go to Rumania, or Transylvania ...


The middle 3 teams arrive in rapid sequence at the still-closed Ouaga airport.
Kynt will try the internet cafe.
Should be crowded!   
Hend and Christina share info on the phone.
Christina: We'll all be on the same flight to Paris.

Shana/Jenn, 7:44 am.
Neither of them can correctly pronounce "OUAGADOUGOU" yet.   
TK/Rachel, 7:56 am.
Rachel can't pronounce Vilnius. (Neither could Nic.)

Kynt: First flight out, 10:45 this evening.

Ron gets a taxi to take them to an Air France office.
They purchase tickets by speaking French!
They will fly Paris-Prague-Vilnius, arriving the following evening 9:30 pm.
Christina: In Paris we'll ask for an earlier flight.
Ron: You want to WAIT until THE LAST MINUTE TO CHANGE!?!?
Ron conf: She's somewhat naive. I want to teach her how to deal with various types of people.
Ron to Chris: This is unacceptable. She (the agent) is fossilizing her mind to Air France. Get her to expand to other carriers.

Title: Re: EP5 commentary
Post by: mswood on December 02, 2007, 07:19:35 PM
Ron was right!! An earlier flight does exist, arriving Vilnius 2:10 pm.

At the internet cafe: Other teams think they have a 1:25 (am or pm I dunno) arrival in Lithuania. We'll see.

Nic/Don decide not to help Ron/Chris.
Nic/Don seem to have a 1:25 pm arrival booked!!
Next up, Az/Hend, make fun of the secrecy with which Don/Gramps are attempting to buy the ticket (standing 8 feet away).
No one will tell Az when their flights arrive in Vilnius.
Hend: Sneaky!
Someone: We aren't going to say.

Hend tries to speak with the ticket agent. She speaks no English, only French.
Az/Hend will apparently fly through Amsterdam, arriving Vilnius 1:25 pm.
In the meantime, Nic/Gramps have a problem ... flight is full now that Az/Hend bought theirs.
Nic/Gramps stuck with a 5:something pm arrival in Vilnius as tickets are selling fast.
Nic: EARLIER?
Woman doesn't seem to understand "earlier."

TK/Rachel and Nate/Jenn are buying tix ... and somehow, mysteriously, Jenn gets a 1:25 arrival.
TK: Can we get the same as them?
Woman: No, full.

Post by: mswood on December 02, 2007, 07:47:50 PM
Evening in Ouaga.
Teams get ready to board.
Ron: The Amsterdam flight makes a very close connection, might be too close. We'll stick with our flight.

Phil: From Paris, 3 connecting flights. Az/Hend, Shana/Jenn, Nate/Jenn flights will go through Amsterdam.

Nate/Jenn, 1st to Vilnius, are looking for the Church.
The second flight arrives close behind.
Goths get a map.
Nic/Don in 2nd leaving for the Church.
TK/Rachel make it away from the airport in 3rd, Shana/Jenn 4th.
It's close between all of 'em driving through Vilnius.
Dunno where the other teams went to ...
Teams are basically following each other.
Except for Az. He follows Hend's directions.

Christina stops Ron to ask for directions.
Nate changes directions. "This is the most insane place I've ever driven in my life."

CLUE, Nic/Don: ROADBLOCK.
Who's a good listener?
This person has to become a Lithuanian Messenger. Woman will give you a package and tell you where to take it. Must deliver the packet to the correct person in 1 of 4 final destinations, thru these confusing streets.
Nic going to Vilnius University courtyard.

2nd to CLUE, Kynt will be the messenger.
3rd, Hend.

Finally asking directions, Nate/Jenn got lost and are "20 minutes" away.
Shana/Jenn driving around, lost.
BUS COMES AT THEM ...
Oops it missed.
Shana yells.
Jennifer: Relax.
Shana: Omigod! A bus almost killed me! I should relax.

4th, Ron will play Messenger.

Nic has done one delivery already and is on his 2nd.
Kynt makes his first delivery, as does Hendekea.
Nic stands in a street asking directions for a hair salon.
Nate/Jenn are debating while running through streets, finding the church.

Kynt, 2nd delivery.
Nic, still looking for a salon.
Kynt is done.
Kynt/Vyxsin, CLUE: Drive yourselves to Lietuvos Via-something-or-other in Rumsikes.
Phil: An outdoor museum.

TK/Rachel in 5th, TK will be messenger.
Shana/Jenn still driving in circles.
Shana: I don't know why you don't like to ask people for directions.
Nate, in 6th, will be Messenger.

TK and Ron make their 1st delivery.

TK is done already!
Laughing, Rachel: You're done ALREADY!!!
TK/Rachel leave in 2nd.
Ron/Christina leave in 3rd.
Ron: I don't want to aggravate my hernia. I'll have to walk.

Nate's Jenn makes her 2nd delivery.
Nic and Hendekea are lost. Very, very lost, trying to make their 2nd deliveries.

Nate/Jenn, finish in 4th.

Hendekea finally finishes.
Az/Hend, 5th.

Finally at the Roadblock, Shana/Jenn argue over who is the better listener.   
Nic is lost as Don watches all the other teams leave in front of them.
Don conf: We could very possibly be eliminated today.

The "festivities" look like the Texas Aggie bonfire.
Kynt conf: My favorite moment in the Race thus far. The kindred souls in dress-up made us feel normal!
They'll stilt walk.

2nd to the Gnome thingy, Ron/Chris.
2nd getting their Gnome, TK/Rachel.
Kynt steps off. "Where is the finish?"
Vyxsin: You almost made it! Why did you get off!!!
They go to start over.

Nate/Jenn, Az/Hend arrive at the Gnome thingy.

Last two teams battling ... Shana/Jenn and Nic/Gramps, both driving toward the Church/Gnome thing.

Kynt falls off his stilts.
Rachel falls of her stilts.
Ron/Christina apparently didn't see them falling, because they choose "Step up."
Ron falls. "I don't want this hernia to pop out!"  

Goths change to the Picket-counting exercise.
Now in 4th, Nate/Jenn choose Count Down.
Jenn: I can do this Sooooo fast! Please just let me do it!!
 
Jenn: That's one hundred, okay?
Goths start over, having lost count.

Az/Hend choose stilts.
Christina's done, but Ron has to go back to the start.

Done with stilts, TK/Rachel, 1st, CLUE: Make your way on foot to the next pitstop.
Phil: A...ia Windmill. Last team to check in here, may be eliminated.
Goths finish counting and try to race TK/Rachel.

Bearded man: Welcome to Lithuania.
Phil: TK/Rachel, your gnome? You're team #1. You have won a 10 day trip for two to Japan!
TK conf: We thought we were last most of the day!

Phil: Kynt/Vyxsin, you are team #2.

Christina: It's okay. You're almost there. Slow and steady, one more time.
Ron is dejected, walking back to the start.

Jenn: 727.
Man: NO.
Jenn: WHAT!?
Nate: I can count, too.
Jenn: You can count in your head, okay?

Ron falls off again, but this time, it's across the finish line!

Nic/Don in 6th, and Shana/Jenn in last, arrive at the gnome challenge.

Az and Hend decided to do counting.
A man is doing stuff with plates and pans as they count.
Nate counts along with Jenn.
Azaria is correct!
Az/Hend, 4th place leaving the church.

Phil: Ron/Chris, you are team #3.
Chris conf: My Dad is Superman!

Nathan counts aloud.
Jennifer: Count in your head, please. STOP!
Nate: I am not stopping!
Jenn interrupts Nate by stopping in front of her.
Nate: What are you doing?!?! BITCH!
Jenn: I can't believe you had to call me that!
They change challenges, and will stilt walk.
Nate: Grandpa and his son are here? Unbelievable!!

Nate makes short work of the stilt walk.
Shana starts to count.
Nate and Jenn finish stilt walking.
Nate: I see the pitstop!!

Nic finishes counting, correctly.
Shana and Jenn finish shortly thereafter.

Phil: Nic/Don, you're team #6. Still in the Race.

Shana: It could be a non-elimination leg.
Phil: Shana/Jennifer, you are the last team to arrive. You have been eliminated from the Race. For you, it's like you want this so badly.
Jenn conf: I'm so hurt that we got eliminated.
Shana conf: We come from a comfortable life, with manicures and pedicures. I'm amazed at what we've accomplished.
Jenn: Shana and I will always be friends.
Shana: That'll never leave us. We'll always have that.

Phil: Azaria loses patience with his sister ...
Scene: Walking across a platform, then through what appears to be an airport, possibly a train terminal.
Az (with his hand across her shoulders): Don't give me your attitude, okay. Do you understand that!?

Phil: ... and Nate/Jenn reach their breaking point.
In their small boat, Jenn stops paddling in the river.
Nate: Everytime! Paddle the boat!
Jenn: Why do you have to keep yelling!?
Nate: Just KEEP PADDLING!
Jenn: I hate you. I hate you. I hate you with a passion.

I would be very happy to see either of those two teams win.  Do we have any apoilers that show Kynt & Vyxsin making it that far?

How about hinting that they made it that far?

And as much as I would love to see Nic and DOn make final three.  they aren't the best racers, and haven't done well really so far at all.  And I would really disliked to see a team win that didn't race well.

I haven't seen the ep yet, but the confessional (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=14057.0;attach=45152;image) is clearly Trakai. The distance between that and Rumiskes is about 60 km, and the sunlight doesn't seem to match the sunlight in the cap of the Goth finish mat. So...an extended pitstop? Or maybe a hidden task in this ep?

TK & RACHEL WALKING TALL AS SHANA & JENNIFER FALL

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


As Teams raced through Vilnius, Lithuania, dating couple TK & Rachel ran a smooth leg to claim victory, while Nick's confusion at the Roadblock almost cost his Team everything. In the end, he battled back to defeat friends Shana & Jennifer, who battled each other for control of their Team, resulting in their elimination.

FIGHTS FOR FLIGHTS
Departing the Pit Stop in first place at 6:45am, siblings Azaria & Hendekea ripped open their clue to discover they needed to fly over 3,000 miles to Vilnius, Lithuania. When they landed, they had to drive one of the marked cars to St. Ann's Church to find their next clue.

Arriving at the very empty Ouagadougou Airport, Azaria & Hendekea, along with dating couple Nate & Jen, walked to a nearby Internet café for information on the earliest flight out of Burkina Faso to Vilnius. They learned that the earliest flight to Paris, where they could connect to a flight to Vilnius, departed at 10:45pm with plenty of seats available on Air France.

With many Teams present in the small Internet café, father and daughter Ron & Christina opted to take a taxi into town to the Air France ticket office hoping to find it open even though the Internet café worker said it would be closed. Their gamble paid off as they walked into the office and tried to book tickets. But Ron's overbearing behavior once again surfaced, much to Christina's chagrin. Questions and comments Christina tried to direct at the ticket agent resulted in criticism from her father on how to do it better. Later, Ron remarked, "Christina is somewhat naïve. I basically want to teach my daughter how to deal with various kinds of people. In the end, the pair booked tickets on a flight to Vilnius landing at 2:10pm.

Both Azaria & Hendekea and Nick & Don separately learned that the earliest flight to Vilnius arrived at 1:25pm. The two Teams got into taxis heading for the Air France office to purchase tickets on this flight, as the curious Nate & Jen and Shana & Jennifer followed along.

NICK'S NIGHTMARE
Nick & Don entered the Air France office as Ron & Christina exited, unaware they had booked a later flight. Just as Nick & Don sat down to begin purchasing the 1:25pm flight with an agent who didn't speak English very well, Azaria & Hendekea arrived and used a different agent who spoke better English, allowing them to snag the tickets ahead of Nick & Don. When Nick's agent brought up the 1:25 flight on her computer, it was now completely booked. The best the agent could offer the disappointed Nick was a 5:35pm arrival. In a strange and confusing turn, after Nick & Don left for the airport, Nate & Jen used the exact same agent and successfully booked tickets on the 1:25pm flight along with Shana & Jennifer, who used the other ticket agent.

Back at the airport, Nick & Don walked into the now open Air France office and managed to upgrade their tickets from the 5:35pm arrival to a 1:35pm arrival via Frankfurt. They would be on the same flight as TK & Rachel and Kynt & Vyxsin. A stunned Nick learned from Nate & Jen that they booked the 1:25pm after he and Don left the Air France office prompting Nick to say, "That lady made me so mad."

BLONDE BLOWOUT
With all the Teams at the airport again, the Air France office became crowded as Teams tried to secure the best seats on the flight. Wanting privacy for her transaction, Shana ordered Jennifer to ask a stunned Hendekea to leave the office. Outside, Nate & Jen, TK & Rachel and Azaria & Hendekea all marveled at Shana & Jennifer's behavior. Jen noted, "We can see people's true colors."

Inside the office, Jennifer lamented to an unsympathetic Shana that they officially burned any remaining bridges with the other Teams. After bringing up their disagreement over the U-turn in the last leg and Shana's insistence on clearing the office, Jennifer implored Shana to "think it out a little bit." In response, an angry Shana sniped, "I'm way more methodical than you," to which Jennifer retorted, "You're really flattering yourself."
LITHUANIA!
Landing in Vilnius, Lithuania at 1:25pm, Nate & Jen hopped into their car first. Azaria & Hendekea and Shana & Jennifer had difficulties finding the parking lot, allowing Nick & Don and TK & Rachel from the 1:35pm flight to pass by them. Landing in last place at 2:10pm, father and daughter Ron & Christina, not wanting to waste a precious second, wisely paid a taxi to lead them. Christina's smart move gave them an advantage as Nate & Jen and Shana & Jennifer wandered aimlessly through the city.

Arriving at St. Ann's Church in first place, Nick & Don ripped open the clue to find a Roadblock. In it, one Team member had to choose a local Lithuanian woman working outdoors, who would give them a package and tell them where to take it. Then, traveling on foot through the confusing streets of the Old Quarter, Team members had to deliver the package to the correct person, who would then hand them their second package and one of four final destinations.

NICK'S NAVIGATION
As Nick ran off with instructions to find Weinius in the Vilnius University Courtyard, Kynt and Hendekea opted to deliver packages for their Teams. Nick kept his lead over his competitors as he located Weinius, who instructed Nick to find a hair salon to deliver his second package. Nick's lead soon began to shrink as began asking local after local for directions, but no one could tell him where the salon was located. Eventually, Kynt jumped into first place by delivering his second package to the Gabi Café for his clue. After running back to Vyxsin, Kynt opened the clue to discover they had to drive to the town of Rumsiskes and find Lietuvos Liaudies Buities Muziejus, a Lithuanian outdoor ethnographic museum.

With Nick still searching in vain for the hair salon, TK employed the services of a young local man, who directed him through the city to earn the next clue. Ron asked for help at a hotel to complete the task in third. Even Hendekea, who had to find the hair salon as well, stumbled upon a local woman who led her to the correct location. A stunned Don watched five Teams pass them as the sixth, a very lost Shana & Jennifer, finally arrived at the church with a golden opportunity to catch up.

As Shana ran off with her package, Nick finally found someone to direct him to the salon. However, Shana's urgency in running, coupled with directional help from locals, allowed her to pass Nick as he bled time finding his way back to the church. The two Teams left the church moments apart knowing that one of them would likely be eliminated. A worried Shana said, "Please, please God, let us stay in this game.

PARTY TIME
Arriving at Lietuvos Liaudies Buities Muziejus in first place, dating Goths Kynt & Vyxsin opened the clue to discover they had to scour the village for a vacationing Travelocity Roaming Gnome hidden among 100 of his closest Lithuanian gnome friends.

With their gnome in hand, the Goths continued along the path to find the next clue, a Detour, having to choose between Count Down and Step Up. In Count Down, Teams made their way through the traditional Mid-Summer's Festival to a marked section of picket fence. Once there, they had to count every picket that makes up the fence and then reveal their calculation to a villager. If they were correct, they would receive their next clue. In Step Up, Teams had to stilt-walk along a marked course to the finish line. If a person fell off before reaching the end, that person had to go back to the beginning and start again. When they reached the end, they would receive their next clue.

Running into the festival to try stilt-walking, the Goths marveled at the brightly colored costumes of the dancers and the fun, frightening masks of revelers, as everyone danced to music from accordion players. Later, Kynt remarked, "Vyxsin and I love to play dress up and we were surrounded by kindred souls that made us feel 'normal'."
THE LONG WALK
As the dating Goths struggled to maintain their balance on the traditional wooden stilts, dating couple TK & Rachel and father and daughter Ron & Christina ran into the boisterous festivities determined to take the lead. With all six racers falling down, some closer to the finish line than others, Kynt & Vyxsin opted to cut their losses and switch to counting pickets.

After TK successfully stilt-walked the entire distance, he cheered Rachel on. Kynt & Vyxsin started counting pickets and discovered that the loud music and boisterous revelers made concentrating on the number in their heads rather difficult. Reaching 400, the dating Goths disagreed on which picket represented the landmark and returned to the beginning, just as Rachel took her very last step on the stilts to finish the task. Opening their clue, the dating couple discovered they had to make their way on foot to the next Pit Stop at Aukstaitija Windmill.

WINNERS
While TK & Rachel searched for the windmill, Kynt & Vyxsin reached the magic number of 717 pickets and ran off in hopes of overtaking the dating couple. After a close footrace, TK & Rachel claimed first place, a far cry from their near elimination in the previous leg. Phil awarded the ecstatic couple a 10-day trip for two from Travelocity to Japan.

The injury-plagued Ron, who was suffering from a hernia, slowly inched along the path to the finish line, where Christina stood waiting, having already traversed the course on stilts. She received a scare when she watched her father take a nasty tumble, forcing him to start over, but her encouraging words kept Ron moving forward as the pair claimed third place for the second leg in a row. Afterwards, Christina said, "I'm so proud of my dad. He's my Superman."

With Azaria & Hendekea finishing in fourth, the frustration of counting got to Nate & Jen as they managed to fowl up each other's concentration each time. This led to another fight between the bickering couple, which reached the pinnacle when Nate called Jen a "bitch". While stunned that he called her that, Jen had enough presence of mind to agree they needed to switch to stilts. This wise choice resulted in a much quicker finish en route to fifth place for the couple.

FINAL COUNTDOWN
The partygoers at the festival may have been in a celebratory mood, but grandfather and grandson Nick & Don and friends Shana & Jennifer arrived at the festival with their game faces on as they battled to stay in the Race. With both Teams opting to count pickets, concentration amid the chaos around them would make all the difference. Shana & Jennifer appeared more motivated than ever before, but soon the friends' communication broke down as Shana accused Jennifer of not adopting a strategy to complete the task. Shana sniped, "You're so on a Team of your own, it's ridiculous." Meanwhile, Nick miscounted for his Team, but, as the blondes continued to argue instead of count, he went back and corrected his mistake to reach 717 pickets, earning the clue. Shana eventually let Jennifer count by herself saying, "You just go ahead and count it and if it's wrong, it's all on you." Jennifer did miscount on her attempt, sealing their fate as Nick & Don slipped into sixth place.

Arriving on the mat in last place, friends Shana & Jennifer received the bad news from Phil that they had been eliminated from the Race. A tearful Jennifer remarked, "This Race means so much to me. I'm just so disappointed and so hurt that we got eliminated." Shana added, "We come from a comfortable life. We get manicures and pedicures and facials and you come here and all of that goes out the window. I'm just amazed about what we've accomplished."

well I should have listened to my first instinct and assume that the Croatia spoiler was wrong, I hated Pinky ans the Brain but for some reason after 11 seasons something in you want a girl team to win even them.
I think CBS are doing this in purpose, they want people to watch further season hoping that finally it will happen but it never does. it's not that ace isn't suitable for women, in the similar Asian version female teams flourish (and a F/F team won the first season) it just BAD CASTING!!!
don't you find it weird that in every season except season 2 and All Stars (that still had Daniele as a rep) there's a dumb pretty bibmo team that no one likes and doesn't seem to have a chance in a million years.
in every season theres about 2-3 F/F teams that drop like flies one after an other I think CBS casting crew actually doing this on purpose.

LOL I hated them too but probably would have been happy for them to win because for ONE FRIKIN time I want a f/f team to win!

They should just cast a pair of drag queens that way they LOOK like girls but they would still be able to win.

Does that say the 17th?? If it does, then the Ouagadougou leg was an extended pitstop! And prob leg 2 since leg one was pretty rustic camping. So they had all day the 16th off then.... Flights on the 17th , arr AM 18th--do tasks 18th and Pitstop.

So now we are back to looking for flights to Croatia!!   :pull

The editing would have us think that the Goths exited the airport, walked across the street/plaza to a tourist office and asked for directions to the church. I have a notion that the tourist office was actually in Trakai city, after the castle clue. You can see a Trakai map (example here (http://www.supertravelnet.com/map/1/201_5099_7.jpg); the tourist office is marked with a green dot) on the left and a reflection of some public art in the window. It's hard to find evidence, though; all I can find are castle photos, nothing of downtown.

I'll never make it Michael  :cmas13 , your over 3 hours by plane from me and I'm not a good runner but maybe I can ski there?  :yess:


puddin, I know you would go from ABE airport. You would be surprised (maybe shocked) to know that if you had been able to predict that delay on Dec. 2 and arrived at ABE by 4pm, you could have been on AC7447, a nonstop 1.5 hour flight departing ABE 500pm and arriving Toronto-Pearson International Airport at 630pm. That would have allowed plenty of time to get to Michaels's house in time for an 8pm start of AR12. Now you know for future reference.

Slowhatch, all too often in these situations, the next clue will say "Go to ___."  I'll bet that it said Go to St. Anne's Church and was edited out because of its uselessness when they too much real action to show.

 :cmaslol I had to search ABE apskips and did not know Lehigh had an airport and yet an International airport to boot  :cmas50! Really I should get out of the house more often!

puddin, Newark is a fine and much bigger airport, but it has the worst on-time arrival record in the country. Also, Newark is a mere 105 miles from where you live. If you can do that in a hour, you are a very fast driver. ABE is about half that distance. Check it out. I flew in and out of there for 14 years when I lived and worked in the Lehigh Valley.

CHATEAU, I hope you know that there are few people I would go the extra mile and half for. The answer to your question is that puddin's tickets would cost $269 each way. That may not include taxes, which could bring the total up to about $600 for this jaunt to Toronto and back. That's a lot to avoid the football delay, in my opinion. It might be easier to just move to Canada.
