2. I have the day off and went looking to see if there was a good movie on somewhere
I can only watch the Wiggles so many times.

I am at home with the little girl all day.

I found this and then saw that TiVo had it cued up too.

I have only seen the US Mexico one.

3. I saw the one when he was in Lebanon during the recent outbreak of violence.
It showed how they got out of the country. Good show.

I don't have anything to watch on TV so I will be watching this for sure.

5. That was a really good one
Quebec was really great too. Including a memorable seal hunting and eating (nothing is wasted) excursion.

7. I just read on Wikipedia that the nastiest thing he has ever eaten ...
was a Chicken Nugget from McDonalds.

8. I think that has been amended by him in a recent episode I watched.
He was in Iceland and ate at some hotel "theme" night and told his host is was the worst thing he'd ever put into his mouth. Kinda rude...but hilarious.

4. Damn damn damn
I hate working!!! I won't get home until 5, and the only one of the last 3 I haven't seen is the Indonesia one. That's it, I'm going to find a slippery spot and go home after m "slip and fall". Maybe I should break down and get tivo finally.

Is the first season on DVD yet?

10. Now see, that's poor planning on Travel Channels part
Channels are making a KILLING pumping out their shows to DVD, especially in box sets, and very good for cable channels that don't have as boad an audience. Even though overall a box set costs less to purchase than individual DVDs, people are more willing to shell out for a box set all at once than indiviual items doled out sparingly.

And yes, I would so totally buy the No Reservations season box sets when/if they come out!

9. There was one episode from New Zealand where he had a VERY close call on an ATV.
The thing rolled over on him on a steep sand dune.

Dude is lucky to be alive.

15. I've seen the clip of that
that was really close. The whole thing goes right over and he only gets out of the way by simply falling down the dune the right way

16. You mean they haven't developed the All Rachel All The Time channel yet?
And you said it wrong. It's "EVOO! That stands for extra virgin olive oil, folks!" ;)

She has to make sure to explain that in case you don't understand.
