That's just what happens, people get buck wild in Vegas... And for many, once you get that taste, it's hard to stay away. Which is why some people who were on some crappy reality show are chomping at the bit to get back to Sin City as soon as possible. The only problem is, now that CBS is playing games with the premiere date for TAR6, it's a bit difficult to plan for a get-together. And even though it's a complete pain in the ass, there are plenty of kids who still feel the need to make this happen. "Just be ready to book flights and hotels at a week's notice" they say. Seriously? Fuck that.

One of the most surprising proponents of this whole wank session is Dave (of Steve &). The man is usually the last one on board for these kinds of things. Not to mention that Vegas is a tender, pus-filled topic in the Cottingham household. But this time, he's out there leading the charge. He's almost put forth some kind of effort towards the planning of the "shindig" which is unheard of. Basically, the only reason worth mentioning any of this is to test a theory. The theory is that those who are all gung-fucking-ho about Vegas (planning the party, rallying the troops, all that biz) and then get mentioned on this here website (about their intense gung-ho-ed-ness) go on to flake like the biggest flaking douchebags of all time. What will Dave do? We shall see what happens, as the situation develops.

Meanwhile, it would be kinda nice to find out what the premiere date for TAR6 is going to be. That way, the party could be planned with a little bit more than a week's notice. So if anyone out there happens to know what the date might shake out to be, go ahead and give a completely anonymous and . Just a hunch, but the most likely source for said "hints" would have to be a TAR6er (Welcome to the family, by the way, kids). But they should (in no way) jeopardize the box of Honey Smacks they stand to win (as a result of the show) by interacting with the evil alumni racers. DON'T DO IT, PEOPLE! If you really feel like dropping the premiere date on us, do so, but don't take it any further than that. Certainly, do not try to meet us out in Vegas. As an example, a team from TAR5 was really eager to hit up the Strip with the alumni for the start of season 5. So they brought it (the gathering) to the attention of the good folks at CBS. And, to their surprise, instead of saying "Go ahead, have a good time" the Eye slammed on the shackles and the ball gag. And none of the season 5 teams were allowed to attend. So don't even jack around. Just stay away from us. We're all bad freakin' news. Or something.

Meanwhile, we'll be playing $5 Slap Jack (seriously they have that), boozing it up with free Red Bull/Vodkas, eating 3/4 lb chili-cheese dogs, catching the Siegfried an.. errr nevermind, perusing the infinite choices among the multitude of hookers, shaking our shit in the club, and oh yeah.. watching the first episode of The Amazing Race 6. Don't worry 6ers, y'all can come hang out with us if we decide to do Vegas for season 7.. or 8.. 9? Whatever. By the way, how's it feel to be told, "Oh yeah, your season will air [blah blah blah...]" only to have that shit all kicked in and then you're out there twisting in the wind waiting for the go-ahead so you can start blabbing to everyone? Sucks doesn't it? Try getting pushed back to SUMMER.
