Don't worry. I should have the cord on Monday.
Interesting that we didn't use Thing or Phrase on the BR at all this week.
R4 was way too contrived IMO.
Also, way too many contestants are zigging when they should zag on easy BRs. Ugly pattern.

It's the Hawaii finale and I was hoping it went at least OK...maybe it did, maybe it didn't.
Wow, the 2nd contestant in a row that's orig. from Pittsburgh? Impressive.
The 1st 2 rounds were good but the Express crash may have sent this show crashing down. Sigh.
That sure was a tight match btw. Mike and Monique; R4 was a quick one for me - as soon as the G was proven to be a dud, I got it.
No PHRASE or THING(S) in the BR this week? There's a sign of variety! Well, too bad Mike didn't get the BR - I couldn't get the 2nd word.
My rating: 5
This week's rating: 6
Well, this whole road trip was exciting and the opposite at the same time. The next road trip better be better...
