Today was one boring day in the BB10 house. My latest live feeds report is up over on TV Squad. I think I prefer when Ollie is freaking out.
In other news:
- I was saddened to see Bill and his orange dog Star go tonight on The Greatest American Dog. Although I find him to be on the obnoxious side, I felt sorry for JD when Galaxy started to limp. I hope Galaxy is okay and that he'll withdraw the dog if there's an issue.
- I finally caught the finale episode of Bones. I had already heard long ago about the ending, so it didn't surprise me. But I found the whole ending rather weak.
- I overdid it with my knee today and I'm sitting here with ice on it. I really should refill my pain meds -- I've been out for a week and thought I was doing fine.
- They actually stopped my rat poison ... er, Coumadin for a few days this week and put me on a lower dose. Last week I was very tired and felt blah. I feel better this week on the lower dose but have had real problems sleeping. Tomorrow I go for my weekly blood draw, so they'll probably change it again. I so love being poisoned slowly!
I have a post up on TV Squad with the CBS video of the new cast. I think I like! I hear ew.com has more information but I'll have to check it out a bit later. I have to go work out, fool for exercise that I am. Yeah, my physical therapy halted thanks to Blue Cross/Blue Shield and the skimpy 20 visit limit. But I'm paying a low fee to go use the equipment at the PT place to strengthen my knee. I have to stop almost falling!
Keesha and Dan sunned in the early evening hours last night. I think these could be called compromising positions! ;-)
Here's the evening and overnight events from inside that Big Brother House of Ollie's Follies and Dan's Plans:
- Jerry watched the washing machine while Memphis, Dan, and Keesha talked about Jerry watching the washing machine.
- No one else watches the washing machine. I think it's Jerry's secret alliance in the house.
- Michelle, Ollie, and Jerry (after he stopped watching the washing machine) trashtalked about Dan.
- Ollie (once again) told Michelle he's been playing nice and he's not playing nice anymore. I personally don't think he played any kind of way except perhaps playing April before a few days ago.
- Renny (once again) cooked dinner for all. I think I want me a Renny dinner -- she looks like she's a great cook!
- Renny is sick of the tension in the house. At the end of the meal, Michelle claimed that Memphis and Dan were talking about her. Ollie joined her cause and Renny just gave a huge sigh and said they weren't even talking about them.
- But it's okay for Ollie and Michelle to talk about Dan and Memphis.
- Ollie and Michelle promptly started trashtalking about Dan again.
- Michelle, whose mother should be oh-so-proud of her made homosexual references about Dan which would make a sailor blush.
- Dan told Memphis he doesn't think CBS will show any of them in a negative light. He's spot on with the Ollie editing last night!
- Michelle wanted alcohol. They haven't had any since the night before the PoV meeting.
- Jerry is showing again his need to repeat things. Like the oft-repeated "I'm a little streetfighter" -- he wants to tell either Dan or Memphis the line he used about Evel Dick in his pre-season interviews -- "Out of a million sperm, I can't believe you were the fastest swimmer." First off, it's not scientifically logical, a person is the result of a sperm and egg. A person is not a sperm. If he's going to use the saying, he should edit it to reflect the result of the fastest sperm. He's waiting to use it at the right time. Then we'll probably hear it a dozen more times.
- Michelle, sure that people are talking about her again, pines for a glass of wine.
- Jerry wants to make a voodoo doll of Memphis.
- Jerry told both Ollie and Michelle he will write them letters of reference if they ever need them. I think any prospective employer should just check out videos of the feeds on YouTube. That's all the reference they need, fine upstanding polite, intelligent folks that they are.
- Ollie, Jerry, and Michelle decide (if none of them make it), they would vote for Renny to win if she's in the final two.
- Ollie, Jerry, and Michelle think Memphis screwed Steven out of the car win. If they had a do-over, they would keep Steven and boot Dan.
- Renny, Memphis and company talked about Jerry picking his nose. Memphis thinks Jerry is creepy. I think he was creepier when he stalked April and Ollie. I think now he just stalks the washing machine and doesn't really fit in anywhere but watching the suds.
- They're not too happy that Jerry is cocky this week. However, they will still vote Michelle out.
- Michelle tried on and off all day for Renny's vote, but Renny wouldn't commit to anything.
- The two camps sat in different places each trashtalking the other camp.
- Ollie thinks that this week won't be a routine Thursday -- they've had enough of the routine. He's right, but he doesn't know it.
- Renny and Dan joke-flirted again. They make me laugh. If there aren't going to be fireworks in the house, I want someone to make me laugh. Neither Monica or Renny's husband have anything to worry about, but they're a hoot when they get going.
- I'd rather see that than something like the April and Ollie sexcapades.
- All are asleep as I get this posted.
The show has started here on the East Coast. This post will constantly be updated as the show airs. Typos will happen as I'm paying more attention to the television than my typing, so please forgive me. Everyone is welcome to chime in with your thoughts and reactions as the show goes on! (Where did I last see that beverage cart?)
Recaps, going over the HOH deal again. Dan and Memphis discuss Memphis going on the block, then Dan in his nominations dilemma, noms cermeony. I like Dan, but his projecting in the DR is driving me mad. Hmmm ... new fodder -- Replacement Nominee Roulette, a game of Dan's. Whoops, back to the old noms ceremony.
Finally, back to color on Day 46. Ollie thinks he gets all the good things from HOH with no blood on his hands. Memphis thinks Dan's plan is crap. Jerry thinks he's in trouble ... but he's a fighter. Dan projects that it's a calculated risk that will make people think he and Memphis don't have an alliance.
Dan and Memphis talk some more. Memphis is pissed, but Dan in his mellow way tries to soothe him. Dan told Memphis the third part of the deal and that he'll put up Michelle if someone comes down.
Dan asked Keesha if he made a mistake. Keesha thinks it won't go the way he wants it to, it never does. Renny arrives. Duh, Keesha now knows that Michelle and Ollie have an alliance. Dan tells Renny and Keesha he won't put either of them up. "Oops." He'd have to put Michelle up.
Ollie is tells Jerry and Michelle about the secret third part of the deal. Of course, it was supposed to be a secret. Jerry isn't putting too much stock in the deal. (Judas memories.)
Dan wants everyone to gather in the living room. America's Vote. The phone call. Jerry's eyes lit up and Michelle looked like she was going to cry. Keesha does shed a tear or two in the DR. Michelle goes off crying because she's so lonely and would die to have a phone call from home. She sobs to us. I'm not as patient as Renny with her. Jerry goes and talks to her, too. Now Jerry is upset, 54 years, Parkinsons ... I have more sympathy for him.
The phone rings -- in the living room. Stupid Michelle doesn't know if she should answer it. Jerry's daughter asks for him, his grandson talks to him. Then his wife Jo. She tells him she's okay. They miss each other. Michelle cries, not sure if she's touched. Everyone else is smiling and seems happy for him. When he asks if she thinks they behave, she said, "Well ..." Sure enough, Michelle cried because she misses her family. "Thank you America" - he croak shouts.
Memphis goes to HOH with Dan and Keesha. They're wondering if Michelle will vote out Memphis and who Michelle would put up if she gets HOH. Best case scenario -- Michelle goes home this week. Dan tells us he's going to have to break the deal with Ollie. Very important POV, says Keesha.
Player picking time -- Dan picks Renny, Memphis selects Keesha, Jerry gets Houseguest Choice -- Michelle. Dan did not want Michelle to play. Jerry thinks if she wins the veto he'll get removed. He also thinks that then Ollie gets to pick the replacement nominee.
Ollie goes to Dan about the deal. 2/3 is done, the rest, the most important? Ollie tells him they need him on their side. Dan nods a lot and says okay a few times.
POV comp - All in space gear, Star Wars music playing, it looks like Mars. Ask not what theveto can do for you. Planet Veto, fly puzzle pieces on a zip line kind of thing, extra pieces in puzzles. Two heats..
Michelle Dan Keesha heat one, the others go inside. ONE GIANT LEAP is the name of it. Dan wants to throw the comp to Keesha so she'll use the veto. Michelle wants to win it. Keesha has a lot of rope problems. Michelle has the traveling down. "What Michelle has in strength, she lacks in brain power" -- Dan. Michelle thinks she's good at puzzles, but has problems. Keesha has the puzzle down. And Keesha wins the heat and advances to the finals.
Memhis, Renny, and Jerry are up. Both Memphis and Jerry really want the win. Renny loves being in the astronaut suit and is having fun. Jerry dropped a piece and took a long time picking it up. Like Michelle, Jerry claims to do puzzles all the time and is good at them. Memphis won the heat!
Keesha and Memphis in the final round with a new puzzle. Ollie tells us he's happy because he has the power. Dan is happy, couldn't have orchestrated the whole thing any better. Memphis WAY beat Keesha! Michelle grimaced. Ollie did fine.
Ollie is giggling because Renny or Keesha will go up. Dan thinks Ollie and Michelle are going to be shocked.
Memphis and Dan celebrate in the HOH room. Memphis thinks Michelle is a loose cannon, hostility in the house. Dan says they can beat Ollie. Dan tells Memphis to keep things mum. Dan tells Keesha and Renny about the third part of the deal. "Dan's not a very good negotiator," says Memphis. Dan wants Ollie to continue thinking the deal is on. "You're going to need some protection," Renny says.
Ollie wants to talk to Dan now. Dan says he's going to try to talk Memphis out of using the veto. Ollie tells him he wants to put Keesha up. Dan tells him his hands are tied. Ollie tells him three people in the house won't come after him next week -- Ollie, Jerry, Michelle. Of course, Dan already has Keesha, Renny, and Memphis.
Dan wants to cause drama and fights amongst others so the attention is off of him. Dan tells us at the veto meeting, he will get each HG to pick a replacement nominee so they all get mad at each other. Michelle says Keesha, Dan tells Ollie that he needs him to say Renny. Ollie agrees to do it. Keesha has no problem saying Michelle. Renny gets questioning and thinks it's a cop-out. Wait, Ollie's going to say mine? Renny is peeved but says she'll say it. Dan says Michelle is going up, but he needs the fireworks.
Ollie is so proud of himself and hopes it follows through. Veto meeting time! Memphis speaks as POV winner. Jerry speech -- COngrats, awesome job, don't expect him to use it on him, nice speech. Memphis saves himself. Dan gets up, worst case scenario, wants to have fun, play games -- Replacement Nominee Roulette. Who do you wish, be truthful, if you don't say a name, you go on the block.
Michelle: Keesha -- Ollie: Renny --- Keesha: Michelle --- Renny: Ollie
Gamble is a risk, Ollie you lost a bet, Michelle you go on the block. They stare. Daggers! Michelle thinks it doesn't make sense she got backdoored for someone else's deal. She threatens in the DR. He's a plant, y'know.
Ohh , the lollipop throwing and a bit of outdoor. They edited a cringe on Dan as he was in the HOH for the lollipop throw and the backyard rampage.
As Jerry continues to watch the washing machine (his form of television, I guess), my latest live feeds post is up over on TV Squad. Remember to stop back later as the show airs here on the East Coast. At about 9 PM ET, I'll get the live-blogging post up and then my full review/recap of the episode will go up on TVS sometime much later.
Oh .. and welcome aboard all the new faces in comments! Make yourselves at home. I'll send someone around with the beverage cart soon.
;-)
