Big Brother 14: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - Aug. 22

My gosh ... so much has happened in the house that I totally forgot that they haven't aired the PoV show yet! As it airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. But, as always, the real excitement is in the comments area! Pull up a comfy chair, grab a beverage to sip (or chug) and come join us!

This should be a good one!

Veto player pick time -- Shane - Jenn, Boogie - Houseguest's Choice (Ian), Frank - Houseguest's Choice (Ashley). Danielle is the host.

Big Brother Candy World is the PoV comp. It's a counting game. Ian needs to throw it so he won't have to take one of the nominees off the block. Heh. Boogie is eliminated first. Frank is in the lead, Jenn out second. Shane got his first point, Ian is out. Ashley got a point, Shane out. Frank wins!

America's vote for the Have Nots: mozzarella and matzo, cheddar and chipolte, feta and fennel.

Veto Meeting time. Frank saves himself. Shane puts Jenn up with Boogie.

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Wednesday Morning - Aug. 22

He WILL win if not stopped soon

Well, I judged Joe wrong. He did tell Frank he was going to go with the HoH side, not the Boogiemobile. The Boogiemobile, of course, could be easily confused with the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile. But I digress. Here's the latest scoop from inside that Big Brother House of Tears and Turmoil:

• I was kind of looking forward to a complete blindside of Boogie. Thanks for blowing that, Joe!
• In a way, Boogie and Dan are working very much to the same tune right now.
• Boogie is avoiding others and letting Frank run around working his tail off to keep him in the house.
• Dan is laying low letting all those around him fall apart.
• Not so mortal enemies Danielle and Jenn kissed and made up. Well, not quite in a lesbian way, but ...!
• Joe's big "confrontation" with Frank consisted of ... "I regret to inform you that my decision is a no."
• Huh?
• That's IT? From Mr. Big Boy Willie Fighter? Sheesh. What a letdown. It's bad enough he went to Frank sans Boogie.
• Oh, sure. Ashley was there. But she doesn't count.
• And she now realizes she won't count. After all, she's "voted out all of her friends in the house and has no one."
• Her words, not mine.
• Frank tried, but Joe ain't budging.
• Hey, he even has a name for his alliance with Dan, Britney, Shane and Danielle -- the Headhunters.
• Joe then went up to the HoH room with the four plus Jenn.
• Laughter and boisterousness ensued.
• Then it was time for Secret Squirrel Ian to go into overdrive.
• He walked about (on toes, as squirrels often do) and worked himself up, taking gaspy breaths.
• Then he cried.
• The Emmy goes to IAN!
• He sucked both Frank and Ashley right in!
• Frank stormed up to the HoH room.
• A shot rang out! The maid screamed!
• He yelled about how they made Ian cry.
• Britney sat there looking actually shellshocked.
• They sat in amazement at his fury for a moment after he left.
• Then they giggled.
• But then Ashley went up wanting to talk to Jenn alone.
• No way, Jose!
• Jenn lighted right into her in front of the new HoH group (which includes Joe).
• Secret Squirrel is still being secretive -- neither Jenn nor Joe know his role.
• One thing good about Jenn is that she does say what she means and she doesn't pussyfoot about.
• So the cryfrontation went down, not a confrontation so much.
• "But, but ... I'm all alone in this game!"
• "You made your bed, now lie in it."
• Okay, I paraphrased Jenn's sentiment there. But since her make-out session with Frank, I've wanted to say that.
• As I write this up, the HoH crew is STILL up (including Jenn and Joe) out in the yard.
• Jenn and Ashley sort of made up.
• Boogie Boy is going to be history come tomorrow night.
• But who will be the second boot?
• Hmm ... 

No, I don't want to work with you

At least Jenn says what's on her mind

Just before the big crydown

The Emmy goes to  ... Ian Terry

OMG, Frank is berserk!

The big cryfrontation

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Monday Evening - Aug. 21

Frank channels Richard Simmons at times

I'm not sure I can endure two more days of this until the (double) eviction. It could be worse. I could be Joe. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Whirling Dervishamsters:

• Oh my gosh, what a mess.
• Frank and Boogie have been after Joe all day and even part of last night.
• Ashley's at him.
• The HoH crew is after him.
• He seems to be with the HoH crew.
• He has a talk with Ashley, she runs to Boogie and Frank and repeats it verbatim.
• Well, that is until Joe plops down in a chair with them.
• Heh.
• Then Joe tells Britney all of what Ashley said.
• She's definitely voting for Boogie. So, it should be her and Frank, possibly Ian as a cover.
• Dan, Danielle, Britney and Joe should vote to rid the house of Boogie.
• Joe's been saying all evening he's going to tell Frank that he's decided to go with the others.
• He did tell Jenn that Ashley said she'd be voting to keep Boogie.
• Of course, Ashley told Jenn she was voting to keep her.
• Secret Squirrel Ian has become almost a smooth liar in a matter of a few weeks.
• Dan seems to be laying low, mainly in the HoH room, occasionally appearing in the yard to play pool.
• For all of his talk and posturing, Joe ain't no tough guy.
• I don't think he's going to have his big confrontation with Frank and/or Boogie.
• At least not tonight.
• I notice BB hasn't given them any alcohol tonight.

All hail Ian ... oh, they will. They will.

Professional camera work, minimum wage!

Mr. Spock called. He wants his eyebrows back.

I admit to taking a few editing liberties to her ear, but swear I didn't mess with her eyebrows!

Ohhhmmm

I should elbow that floater in the ribs

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Monday Afternoon - Aug. 21

The PuppetMaster has arrived

Yep, just after I finished posting this morning's report (I'm East Coast), a huge flying American cockroach divebombed Boogie and Frank in the backyard. I'm talking HUGE. I think Boogie might have recruited it for his alliance.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves:

• While it was still night there (morning here!), Danielle climbed atop of Shane in bed and molested him.
• Ew. 
• He did NOT encourage her.
• Ew.
• Shane told Danielle she had no self control.
• Apparently no dignity, either.
• Bitter Boogie Boy told Frank that if he goes out Thursday, he's going to go have sex with Dan's wife.
• He didn't put it quite so nicely, but I try to keep a PG-rated blog going here.
• He also said that he'd tell Joe he couldn't cook and that he blew his chance at a show because he (Boogie) owned 17 restaurants in the past 11 years.
• Um. How many of them does he currently own? How many went out of business? Inquiring minds want to know!
• Frank and Boogie think they have the votes for Boogie to stay: Frank, Ian, Ashley, and ... and ... oh noes, they need one more!
• Joe! They need Joe's vote!
• So they worked on him on and off and many times today.
• It's kind of like a Vulcan Mind Meld, but they didn't touch him.
• "Here, drink this Kool-Aid, Joe. All of your problems will be solved. You wouldn't be the low man on the totem pole with OUR Kool-Aid alliance!"
• Oh. They don't know they don't have Ian's vote either.
• Oh. And probably not Ashley's. That one is a bit hazy. She's promised both Boogie and Jenn votes and it's hard to tell what her muddled mind will do. She might vote to evict Benji for all I know.
• But he will have his bromance boy Frank voting for him to stay! You can take that to the bank, Boogie!
• Oh. And he doesn't have Joe's vote, either.
• Oops. Too bad, so sad!
• Joe, of course, ran right to Dan and Shane with Boogie's tales.
• Boogie keeps talking about wanting to punch Dan. He blames all of this on Dan.
• Wait until he sees the tapes and his boy Ian. 
• I think even the Boogie will have to say, "Well done."
• Boogie also keeps saying how much he hates all the people, the losers in the house.
• When Boogie told Joe they for sure had Ian's vote, Joe went to Ian.
• Ian is still playing Secret Squirrel and told Joe of course he's voting for Boogie to stay. Boogie all the way!
• Joe is freaking within. He's popping Advil like crazy. I don't think he deals with the stress well. He had a panic attack and claims his blood pressure is acting up.
• Dan is more like Cool Hand Luke. I forgot how good he actually is.
• Boogie told Frank it would be the ultimate betrayal if Ian went to the other side.
• Heehee.
• Joe promised Jenn he will not vote her out. So did Dan. 
• Well, duh on the Dan vote. Did she actually think he'd want Boogie to stay?
• Britney is upset that Boogie is so angry at everyone and the world in general.
• Well, he's a poor sport. He's the Boogie. He should be King of his Hamsters.
• Joe doesn't think he'll last the night without telling Boogie where his vote really is (Boogie out).
• Uh-oh.
• As a personal bit, I want to thank those who have given a donation this year. It's very appreciated and even makes the lack of sleep a bit easier to handle. Thank you! 

Ew! Ew! Danielle molesting Shane! Ew!

Desperation in digital

Why is she even worried that he'd vote for Boogie to stay?

What a tangled web we weave ...

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Monday Night Into Tuesday - Aug. 20-21

Duh. I don't know how to play the game.

 Another night of tension in the house. But, hey ... they knew the job was dangerous when they took it, Fred. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Allies and Enemies:

• The HoH crew talked about how Jenn has done absolutely nothing in the game so far.
• Meanwhile, Jenn kept fussing about the huge target on her back.
• Wait ... it suddenly dawned on her that she was the PAWN up with Boogie.
• Why didn't anyone tell her?
• Sheesh. She hasn't won anything, has basically been invisible, is put up on the block with the Boogie Boy with the bad reputation and previous winner (thanks to Dr. Will). Did they HAVE to tell her that she's not the target?
• Jenn still believes that Britney knew nothing of the renom beforehand.
• Okay, she's as gullible at Shane and Danielle.
• Jenn also complained that the HoH crew was celebrating with their new ally Joe because Joe was making cookies.
• @@
• I think Joe often bakes and cooks rather than get involved with the interpersonal stuff. He may realize that his interactions with others aren't as winning as cookies.
• Huh. I forgot that Jenn is one of the "older" hamsters this year. She's 37.
• In contrast, Britney will be 25 on Thursday.
• Joe is still running to the HoH crew reporting on everything he sees.
• That's a bit different than how Ian is doing it. Ian reports when asked or for important game matters.
• Joe runs to them about Frank and Ashley being close.
• Boogie and Frank think they only need Joe's vote to turn it around to a Boogie stay situation.
• They're wrong.
• They don't have Ian.
• They think they do even though they're fussing about Ian being so friendly with Dan.
• Jenn is still all bent out of shape about being put on the block.
• I guess she thought invisible stays until the end. Perhaps she thought Adam Poch was the ultimate BB hamster. @@
• Frank keeps trying to pep talk Boogie.
• Boogie knows that there's probably no chance in heck he's going to stay.
• Frank thinks that if Boogie just lightens himself and becomes the "fun Boogie" again, it will help.
• No, it won't.
• Ashley told Frank that Boogie has given up and Joe went to the other side.
• Well, duh.
• Ian told Ashley that he would vote for Boogie to stay no matter what.
• I think he's just telling her what she wants to hear.
• He's still playing the double agent boy.
• Ian reported his talk with Ashley to Britney.
• Ian thinks Ashley is sticking like glue to him so he won't be able to talk to the others.
• Meanwhile, Frank and Boogie are impressed that Ashley has come over to the Dark Side.
• Maybe the thought of the kiss ...
• Boogie keeps hatin' on Dan and Danielle even, Shane not as much.
• Go figure.
• He wants to expose Danielle as a nurse.
• That was a stupid lie and most already realize she's not a kindergarten teacher anyway.
• Boogie and Frank still think they have a chance with Joe even though he called them out as bullies.
• Now, I think they'd have a chance with Joe if they were HoH crew.
• That's the way Joe rolls.
• We have another two days of this, folks! 

I do know how to play the game.

I know how to play the game even better.

I know how to cook for y'all

But .. but ... I'm BOOGIE!
