Last night was the conclusion of a program I have enjoyed for a couple seasons now, The Amazing Race. This is the fifth time CBS has done it, and it’s still got it goin’ on. As usual, the race comes to an end with three teams fighting it out for $1 million. And, as usual, only one team is likable, and the other two are awful, and you hope they lose. This time the best team really did win. Chip and Kim were always nice to each other, didn’t do all the fighting and complaining that the other teams did. They always had a positive attitude. The losers were bad people, and I would have slept worse knowing they had won. It would have been like Survivor All-Stars from earlier in the year.

Someone has made a webpage devoted to the old Westminster line of LPs. These records were well known for clever and/or silly album covers. Check out this disc including the “Surprise” Symphony of Haydn. It appears to be a work in progress, but many of these images are entertaining.
