IF you hurry, you might be able to catch the past shows on 
ABC.com.  I'm not sure if the whole season is available once it 
airs.
I'm going to wait till it becomes available on iTunes, and just 
rent the whole thing.

 Hi everyone,



 Thought I would give an update on the TV show Expedition 
impossible

 that has Eric, sorry can't remember last name, the blind guy.  
So it has
 been
 4 shows now, the show has teams of 3 racing through Morocco and 
I am happy
 to say that team no limits (Eric's team) has been in the top 2 
for the last
 2 weeks.  The first show had some people from other teams saying 
it would be
 embarrassing to lose to a blind guy, but everyone is well past 
that now.
 Eric's brother and another guy make up team no limits and bells 
are used for
 Eric to follow.  His team is treated like all the other teams 
with a little
 blurb from someone on the team each week, and yes Eric's team 
generally says
 something about how he can or sometimes cannot do all parts of 
the
 challenges.  It is cool to see the other teams gain respect and 
start to see
 past the blindness and over all I think it is showing blind 
people in a good
 light.



 For those who want to check it out the show Expedition 
impossible airs on
 ABC, Thursday nights, 9pn eastern time.
