rabid1stHello LJ Friends;
My team just won the Amazing Race!
And already I can't wait for the next round of world travel. So, as my sweetie and I were talking over the rumored "upcoming celebrity version" of the show, it suddenly hit me: Why wait?
I can stage my own Amazing Race...a virtual one. Who's with me?
Oh...come on...it'll be fun!
Everyone pick a virtual celebrity team and let me know about them via the comment feature below.
Then, we will all meet back here in one week. You are the camera-person. I will tell you where you stand and who is disqualified. But you can report on how your team handles whatever I throw at them each week. If you fail to report, I may do unusual things to your team...be warned.
We will experience other cultures. We will have Roadblocks and Detours and fun at the airport.
An unknown number of teams will set off on an amazing around the world adventure in 7 days...join us on the Maid of the Mist under the thunder of majestic Niagara Falls.
One caveat...because everyone I know wants to play with Spike or Buffy or Angel or Faith...they are OFF the contestant list, automatically disqualified because they would all cheat...but they will show up like Phil and tell you if you are disqualified or have won a special trip or prize to enjoy "after the race!"
Plus, we will have cool prizes...none of those crappy Kodak Point and Shoot Cameras...I'm talking full body massage from Spike and/or Faith type prizes.
And any other Scoobie combination is fair game. Say...Andrew and Xander? The Mayor and Xander? Willow and Giles? Giles and Andrew? Mulder and Scully? Scully and Kersh? But why stick with one show? How about Anya and Donna from the West Wing? How about Donna and D'argo from Farscape? Now, there is a winning team. Mix and match...have some fun...no celebrity can be on more than one team...so...report in first with your pick...
My sweetie will be recording the adventures of Apu Nahasapermapetilon, the Kwik-E-Mart owner from Springfield and his partner Marge Simpson. I foresee fireworks in that combination.

But great idea ;)
I can't decide whether to play or not ... how long would our entries have to be?
Awww....Kisses for your losses...
Date: 2003-08-21 07:19 pm (UTC)As to V-CAR. NO extra-long entries at all...I must make time to read them. ;-D
In fact, I was just saying...if you fail to report in one week it could still be sunny for your team. I may just sum up your teams results. Not that you should PLAN to fail...because TEAMS will be eliminated either by...my whim...
Or the roll of the dice or the pull of a card...or something. I will assign each team a number and then...do the placements and knock someone out...but if that person has a really good/clever/interesting post that week...I may roll or pull from the hat, again.

Date: 2003-08-21 07:31 pm (UTC)I will think on this :) I'm so damn committed already.
Come on, Circe...live a little...
Date: 2003-08-21 07:41 pm (UTC)Captain Jack and Xena the Warrior Princess?
I have fic and a new site and my dream mistress duties and RL...friends, weddings, new boss...etc. But still...no detailed accounts...
"Captain Jack uses a bribe of rum to secure the final pair of airline tickets. The ones being held for Scully and Skinner...after Xena fails to beat them out of the travel agent."
And you're done...

I'll play. I wanna be Severus Snape and Elizabeth Swan from PoTC. ;)
Whoo-Hoo...we have a team...
Date: 2003-08-21 08:03 pm (UTC)He's dark and broody. She never gives up and can use a sword to advantage...together they will swash your buckle. Will the greasy hair in his eyes stop their winning charge in it's tracks? Will the stays in her corset sail them off course? Or will the uneasy alliance they've struck with Carson and Captain Jack help them avoid a serious fashion emergency?
Yep, Jon won me over with the native treatment for waves and rocks.
I loved it!
And how much did that Valentines day + White + White thing rock?

not wanting to say too much because our west coast friends are still watching...
