I'm not up on my reality shows so I don't know what to pick- definitely not any of the dating/ marriage ones. I guess
I would pick Fear Factor but they would really have to up the prize money on that one. When the trifecta of being pooped on,
peed on, and puked on becomes a regular occurrence, you can handle just about anything.

Oh - and I think I'd like to be a contestant on "The Real World". I know I'm too old for the 18-beautiful-and-angst-ridden
crowd -- but I would love the chance to sleep (rent free) in a beautiful apartment with running water, heat, and cable TV.
I don't even need the jacuzzi or make-out-couches -- just somewhere away from goats & chickens for a little while.

The Apprentice. I'd have a hard time being on the female team...can you really call it a team? They look
so dumb and catty. I'm not sure they have any common sense. I'm also not sure I could pull of using sex as a way
to get ahead. Don't they know how to think? It would be amazing to have the opportunity to meet and work with
the people they are. The only thing is I'd never want to win. Half the people are making too much money with speeches,
book deals, and endorsements. I'd just need to create a "character" America loves to watch. Why work for The Donald
when you can make more money marketing yourself?!

I'm not the reality TV kind of girl - so the best I can come up with is "Pimp my Ride" from MTV. I'd like to have
a pimping car in Munich to contrast with all the BMWs and Mercedes I see here - our Audi could be quite pimping.

I don't think I could be a contestant on any show. Actually, I really don't even watch any of the reality shows
except for Fear Factor. While, I wouldn't be a good Fear Factor contestant, I do enjoy watching others try the stunts
and eat gross things for a measly $50k.

I am not sure how to say this delicately, and I don't mean to offend anyone - I think reality TV is another step in the
dumbing down of society. I worry that it has become so pervasive in television programming. However, because it
is so pervasive, of course I know something about some of the shows. I think that the Amazing Race would be my choice,
as it has the least Jerry Springer-esque drama (as far as I know), and Chad and I are good travelers.

To tell you the truth, I don’t watch any reality TV shows. However, you would have to live under a rock to
not know something about them. Considering that Tim and I took a 16 month old on 38 hours of plane flights to visit
Australia and New Zealand this summer, and did not dissolve our marriage upon our return to the United States, I would say
we would make an excellent team on the Amazing Race. We’ve nearly fallen off cliffs in the Swiss Alps, we’ve
bargained with Greeks and won, we’ve canoed through the snow in the Boundary Waters, we’ve sea kayaked in storms
on the South Pacific, and Tim has successfully negotiated airport security in Tel Aviv. But all of this pales in comparison
to keeping a 16 month old (i.e. a human pin ball) occupied for 14 hours from LA to Sydney. If we could handle that,
we can handle anything. Incidentally, we went to Australia for my sister’s wedding in Sydney. We didn’t
come up with the insane idea of vacationing there on our own.

I completely plan to be on The Amazing Race someday soon. Both my husband and I love to travel, but get a little
stressed out even going on vacation. So, while we both want to go on the show, I am not so sure it would be a good idea
for our relationship!

Definitely the Amazing Race. Sara and I would have dusted Chip and Kim.

The apprentice - it is like a big case study in organizational behavior. It reminds me of many dysfunctional teams
from school
