It would appear 120 reasons are accounted for by the number of vowels in his name.

It's good to see there's plenty of hair gel in the Amazon or wherever they were playing this year.

He was so much cuter after he put some weight back on! Or maybe it was that he was a millionaire....

I don't think it was hair gel Calvin. Mary?

Interesting. I didn't find Aras attractive at all. Mostly because of his condesending attitude.

Austin was my eye candy this season.

The finale was more than disappointing.

A combining of two morning rituals?

He was looking to find himself.

I just know when I went through my fauxhawk stage, I could never keep it up past 3 p.m. I guess I was using the wrong product.

eta: Not nearly as exciting, but one of the gay Amazing Race guys of yore was standing outside my office for some reason this morning. Updated On: 5/15/06 at 10:52 AM

Aras was great SO happy he won....but would have been so much happier had Cirie

[doodlenyc]

Posted: 5/15/06 at 10:58am

It was like the Cirie show last nite...I cant believe they talked more to/about her than anyone else, including the winner (who admitted that the girls all "helped" with his hair to get it "up.")

Cirie was the only one I liked this season...glad she won the car.

calvin, would that be Reichen, perhaps?

While waiting under the Eiffel Tower in 2004 to get in, Reichen and some stud walked by, I nudged my partner and we were about to yell out, 'Reichen, hi Reichen"....until we realised WE DO NOT KNOW HIM.......heh heh.....as we recognized him, we assumed we really knew him.....too funny

I liked last night's episode and how happy I was that Danielle didn't win. I wanted Terry to win, but I'm not upset that Aras got the prize.

Not Reichen, although I did have the pleasure of meeting him briefly at a journalists' convention in LA a few years ago. This was...um...I can't remember his name...one of the guys from the Rob and Amber season.

Cirie definitely deserved the million bucks, but no one would have taken her to the final two because they know they would have lost. She played the social dynamics of the game better than anyone in any season and she probably made the biggest journey from her first day to her last than anyone else. She WAS the show and I'm glad she at least got a car out of it. She's the kind of person I would love to meet someday.

I personally would have liked to see Danielle get the money rather than Aras. He kept jumping on his "honesty and integrity" high horse and it was so hypocritical. He lost his honesty when he lied to Shane and he lost his intergrity when he got all personal with Terry. All his I-am-the-better-human-being BS was the reason not to give him the money. $100K is more than enough for him to get a job and move out of his father's house. But really, the final two this season were really uninteresting and underwhelming because I don't think anyone really cared. Everyone wanted to see Terry get bumped out of the final two (one of the most arrogant and insufferable contestants to date) and everyone really wanted Cirie to win, so the finale was just a formality they all had to sit through.

I'd like him to teach me some yoga positions.

Posted: 5/15/06 at 11:16am

ah right........lynn and alex....

I am SO glad rob and amber's two minutes of fame are OVER!

[Elphaba]

Posted: 5/15/06 at 11:20am

Danielle deserved nothing....she sailed. She one one immunity challange, ok...so it was the big one, but she did basically nothing. For me Cirie, Terry, or Aras could have won and I'd be happy.....I guess I hadn't paid attention before as I had not realized that Aras was "homeless" and mooched off his dad........that kind of bothered me, as most people I know truly into yoga have it so together.......
Terry was so full of himself, but he played the game well.....and for a man of any age was so HOT!

I agree with Matt on everything he said about Cirie......she is an amazing, strong woman.

Hadnt there been a leak concerning Danielle that she was the winner? I think some vegas betting was closed due to this...anyone know the specifics?

[xxnewgirlxx]

Can we talk Shane? He was a crazy man, and I seriously think he was having a mental breakdown on the show. But, he had the best comments last night.

And his obvious annoyance with Courtney grabbing at his shoulder was hysterical.

[doodlenyc]

Posted: 5/15/06 at 11:41am

Oh gross...he was the biggest hypocrite of all...his comments made no sense before judging (neither did Bruce's for that matter.) He was no more "honorable" than Aras or Danielle, they were just smarter.

I dont think he was having a breakdown, I think he's just f'd up to begin with.

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 5/15/06 at 11:41am

The thing that bothered me about Danielle, is that she more or less agreed that she would take Terry with her. Then she used the immunity idol as her excuse to possibly not take Terry along. Then she nods at Aras during the last challenge. If I were Aras, I would have tried to last as long as I could instead of immediately jumping off the pad because someone gave me the go ahead. Either way, she would not have won the million.

Of the remaining three, I was glad to see Aras win. Danielle, as others have pointed out, did absolutely nothing the entire game and Terry just bugged the living crap out of me.

I wish Cirie had won, though, too. She's awesome.

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 5/15/06 at 12:22pm

I think I might be the only one who wasn't bothered by Terry. Shane annoyed me a lot more than Terry did. It would have been interesting to see the result of a Cerie/Aras final.
