Testimonials

And now for the pit crew. I really loved Real World and Road Rules Challenge: Fresh Meat, so I was glad to see they were going to find a way to get new faces onto the show. My only problem is that I am not sure how often the new faces will get to be in the RV. While MTV Susie kept the veterans on stage, we met the pit crew backstage. This allowed the new faces to be introduced AND gives the veterans a chance to talk shit about them!

David is from the Midwest and he is trying waaaaay too hard. He says he is a crazy ass white dude from the Midwest. Oh, and he's a daredevil. How can you tell? To quote David, "THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T GO TO HIGH SCHOOL MOM. THAT'S WHY I'M STILL LIVING IN YOUR BASEMENT DAD." I think they explained the High School Education + Living in Your Parents Basement = daredevil rule in my Calculus class the same time we were learning integrals. Since I have blocked that out of my memory for eternity, I'll just have to trust David. He might be a fun guy, but I am not sure he's got the chops (or actually, he's been eating too many of them) to beat many of the others in a physical challenge.

Continuing the proud legacy of outspoken lesbians is Ivory. And she's not just a lesbian, but a wild, untamable lesbian that...wait for it...speaks her mind! Imagine that? An outspoken lesbian! I haven't bumped into one of those since my last yoga class, and, you know, every single time I step into Trader Joe's. Ivory did say that she thought Kina was fine and would like to "give it to her real good". And you know that that means? Strap-on jokes are now fair game!

Jerry hails from Fresno, California, a town made famous for being home to people like K-Fed. And "Party in Fresno" has a special meaning to L. Ron Hubbard fans everywhere. Jerry says that he is a ladies man and wants to get everything that he doesn't have, and by the looks of him, he has been trying to get a hold of "taste" and "class" for some time now. Perhaps he is cool, but the stupid Johnny Rzeznik hair is way too distracting for me to take him seriously

Kristen is small and might. She reminds me a lot of Casey from Fresh Meat because I think she is more talk than actual toughness. She says she packs a lot of game, but I think it would take about fifteen seconds with Veronica to show her what it really means to be feared.

Most of the drama surrounding Angel centered on the amount of hair products she required. She seems a little high maintenance and more of a sweet girl then a competitor, but I guess she has a chance to prove me wrong.

Tori is a pageant winner and probably the most attractive girl among this cast, and again, seems more nice than anything else. She's from Virginia, plays softball, and is a preacher's daughter. The best thing about her is that she'll cause a lot of the other girls to become jealous.

Hoping to corner some of the "Stomp the Yard" crowd, the producers give us Lamonte. Other than his dance troupe, Lamonte identifies himself by his extensive tie collection. The veteran guys don't seem to think that he is very intimidating, but he has the type of personality that I think people will want to see on the RV.

Finally, we have Dan. He's a Marine, and is clearly the latest attempt to come up with a successor to the Miz. He seems to be OK, but I am still trying to come to terms with what he said about his heroes being Edgar Allen Poe and Dane Cook. Things should be interesting because he says he'll fuck up anybody who disses the marines OR the war. Combine that with his physical abilities, and I think a lot of people will vote to get him into the RV.

There you have it. I think it is a pretty good mix and it will be interesting to see how things will progress now that we are all involved with the outcome. But really, as long as people are stabbing each other in the back for some money, won't we all be happy? Who is your favorite veteran? Which people from the pit crew do you want to see in the RV?
