Big Brother 11 Live Feeds: Into the Evening Monday 7/20

I know I've mentioned this during previous years, but I'm going to say it again. The house has too much down time. As it stands right now since the POV ceremony is done and over with, there's nothing other than the HOH camera between tonight and the live eviction show on Thursday.

Throw in nominees like Laura and Jordan and we've got ourselves a snoozefest. Laura knows she's the target. She likes Jordan. She's not going to campaign against Jordan. Laura has accepted her fate and is more about trying to give Jordan game advice than trying to flip the vote.

Here are a few interesting tidbits from the Big Brother House of Restless Rodents:

• Jessie and Casey talked about Ronnie's deals. Casey reminded Jessie that his own deal with Ronnie went sour.
• Russell wants Ronnie out next.
• I might have to like Russell a wee little bit even though it makes me feel cheap.
• Russell told Casey that he doesn't like how everyone is acting a bit starstruck when it comes to Jessie.
• Lydia told Jessie that Russell said Natalie and Jessie need to be split up. If I'm not mistaken, that was something she said to Russell first and he basically agreed.
• Laura cried. She's on slop, she's tired, she knows she's going home and she wants to go home.
• Jeff tried to tell her that she doesn't know for sure that she's going home, but that didn't console her. She knows she's going home.
• A new but bound to be short-lived odd couple has come into being -- Russell and Laura. They both mocked Jessie (not to his face, of course), talked about Ronnie being the next to go.
• Ronnie and Jessie talked. Jessie told Ronnie that Russell is using their conversations to get in with the other side.

Yawn. Laters!

Big Brother 11: Live Feeds Monday Daytime 7/20

Well, the PoV meeting went down. Ronnie is rationalizing putting Jordan on the block when Jeff saved himself as they don't have the numbers to get Russell out against Laura. He thinks that if he put Casey or any of the athletes up, there would be lesser of a chance of getting Laura out. And, despite what he told us on the show, he must want Laura out not Russell. Um. Okay. I just wish he'd shut up with his lecturing other houseguests on why he did what he did and how great a move it is.

• He claims he strategically gave his side (Jeff, Casey, Michele, Jordan) back the numbers in the long run.
• Um. Okay.
  
• Laura doesn't understand why "all those girls" love Jessie.
• Neither do I.
• After saying she enjoyed the movie last night, Chima groused about it this morning.
• Chima, in an effort to keep up with her starring role of Drama Queen, also has been complaining about how the diary room treats her and that she isn't getting her iron pills on time. She says that if Julie Chen asks her how she is on the live show, she's going to mention that she's not getting enough iron.
• After the POV ceremony, Laura asked that she not go out unanimously. One vote, please.

That's where we stand. I'm certain we'll be seeing a Laura exit on Thursday. Ronnie does have some logic about the votes not being enough to send Russell home. However, had he put Russell and Jessie (or Natalie) on the block originally, they might have been able to swing votes.

Big Brother 11: Live Feeds - POV Meeting 7/20

This is a late but quick bulletin -- Jeff saved himself and Jordan is now up in his place on the block with Laura.

More soon.

Ronnie idolizing his false god in the wee hours.

Gee, I wish that PoV ceremony was done and over with. I'm tired of trying to figure out what Ronnie's going to do. He lies with each and every breath he breathes. Is he telling anyone the truth?

• The HOH bunch -- Ronnie, Natalie, Jessie, Lydia, Russell, and Kevin decided to call themselves the Natural Born Killers (NBK) and use a majority rules approach to comps.
• Ronnie mentioned that if they're in one of the majority rules questions comp, you can hear a click if a card is turned from A to B. They hear two clicks and they all turn to B.
• Russell said he hasn't cried since he was a child. His father used to hit him whenever he cried.
• Jordan told Laura that Ronnie said he wasn't going to put her on the block. Laura told her she should have said, "Check. That's ten lies."
• Jessie is pushing for a Laura leave.
• Jordan says the diary room told her she doesn't talk game enough.
• I think she does.
• Casey dubbed the body buddy bunch "The Dumb Five."
• Well, I begrudgingly admit that they aren't that dumb if they keep up the gameplay.
• Jessie taught his puppy dog Ronnie a new trick -- how to lift weights.
• Kevin and Russell pointed out that Natalie only takes a shower every three days or so.
• Kevin is starting to feel a bit outcast in his body buddy group. I think we might want to see if he turns. Remember, he has his secret alliance with Casey.
• Ronnie told Casey he has to put Jordan on the block to make sure Laura goes home.
• If up against Laura, it would be a toss-up whether Russell or Laura would go. Against Jordan, it would definitely be Laura leaving.
• The newly dubbed NBK think they'll get rid of the four and keep Jordan for last as she has no chance to win anything.
• You don't know how much I want Jordan to win it all as I listen to them.

So, as it stands now ... with Jessie and Ronnie still up and talking, but saying nothing new ... the backdoor Russell plan is off. It will probably be Jordan replacing Jeff on the block with Laura being the target.

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds into Sunday Evening 7/19

Laura eavesdrops on Ronnie and Jordan.

So, what is Ronnie going to do when Jeff takes himself off the block? I really don't know. He seems to be lying to the one side (Jeff, Casey, Jordan, and Laura) and seems closer to the other side (Lydia, Jessie, Russell, Natalie, and Kevin). But is he telling the truth to anyone? I don't think so.

• Jordan told Ronnie straight up that he's been playing them and she can't trust him.
• Ronnie ran back to the body buddies and told them Jordan is dead to him in the game ... and all bets are off, he might even put her on the block.
• But he told Michele he didn't want Jordan to go home. He asked Michele to vote the way he wants her to. She agreed.
• Michele told Ronnie that she's committed to the brains and the athletes. Argh.
• Chima and Casey enjoyed the movie.
• Ronnie told Casey he's not putting him on the block.
• Kevin approached Casey for a "secret alliance." Shh ... no one knows.
• Ronnie told Casey he's likely to put Jordan on the block.
• Is he lying?

More in a few hours. I'm as confused about what he's going to do as anyone.
