Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Friday Evening/Noms 8/26


I'm at a loss for words here.

I don't know ... things are getting very weird. Whether it's good, bad or production-assisted, I don't know. Here are today's happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Creepers:
  • Jordan looks horrible. She must have cried most of the night.
  • While she continues to snub Shelly, at least she doesn't lunge at her screaming and swearing like she did last night. It was weird to see Rachel practically have to carry Jordan away from Shelly before fisticuffs broke out.
  • Jordan is still very upset that she embarrassed her grandfather and mother with her bad behavior.
  • Kalia and Porsche attached at the hip are already driving me crazy. Even when not whispering, they talk so fast and like back in their throats or something that it's hard to understand them.
  • There was a lockdown as production did something in the HoH room.
  • That led to speculation that it might be a Pandora's Box coming.
  • Oh, they were right.
  • I'd like to take those stupid furry winter boots that Rachel wears in the California summer and burn them.
  • I just had to get that off my chest. She looks stupid wearing them and pulling her long sleeves down over her hands.
  • No, I'm not making comments on her looks. I really try not to do that. I'm talking her fashion sense. Or lack thereof.
  • Porsche told Adam she'd like to put him and Rachel on the block.
  • He's not so keen on that. He's worried that Jordan will win veto.
  • Kalia finds that thought laughable.
  • Adam told her she should nominate Rachel and Jordan.
  • But Kalia/Porsche don't seem to want to nominate Jordan.
  • They both have a lot of sympathy for Jordan.
  • But Jordan is such a pretty sad gal that it's hard not to feel sorry for her.
  • Yet they would like Adam to win HoH next week and do the dirty deed of eliminating Jordan. Then the next week, they get rid of him.
  • Obviously, they're working on the assumption that Rachel goes this week.
  • Meanwhile, Jordan and Rachel are sure they've already lost all possibilities of getting to the end.
  • They both decide that if Kalia makes it to the end, she'll have their votes along with Jeff and Brendon.
  • Whoops! There goes Pandora's Box!
  • For opening it Porsche got herself and Kalia $5,000 each.
  • The downside is the game returns to duos -- Kalia/Porsche, Adam/Shelly and Rachel/Jordan.
  • So, if Rachel and Jordan get nominated, one could win the veto and both could come off the block.
  • But I have no clue if Adam/Shelly win and save Rachel/Jordan. I don't think they can.
  • Rachel and Jordan are once again happy campers. They might have a chance to survive at least a bit longer.
  • Adam sat like a little fanboy saying how much he loves BB.
  • Blech.
  • What Adam doesn't know is that folks in his hometown have been asked to evacuate for the hurricane. He'd never guess that one!
  • Shelly is still bitter that Jordan is so mad at her.
  • I don't really know what else she expected. Jordan went above and beyond for Shelly and, nice girl that she tends to be, the betrayal hurts.
  • In other developments, Rachel claims she's two weeks late and thinks she's pregnant.
  • @@
  • Others think she's saying it for attention.
  • It could be either.
  • I just don't think she's ready to be a mother right now.
  • Kalia once again complained her jeans are ripping at the crotch.
  • Well, if she didn't wear such tight jeans, they wouldn't do that. I know that when I wear tight jeans, they end up ripping at the seams there and along the thigh. Plus, tight jeans make heavier legs look like sausage.
  • I guess I'm on a fashion kick.
  • While I'm on it, I'm tired of Porsche's pink sweatsuit. Of course, it's better than that floor length whatever she wears.
  • Gosh, I wish the feeds would come back from nominations.
  • Yes, I'm sitting here filling in blank space while waiting for the word.
Finally ... confirmation -- Jordan and Rachel are on the block. Jordan said they still have veto and can take themselves off.


Rachel dearest


Porsche fashion


Dumped Rachel and Jordan like hot potatoes

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds - Twist Bulletin

Hmmm ... a long feeds block. They're back to duos?

Apparently Rachel and Jordan are on the block and plan on pulling themselves off as a duo. Rachel's calling it the biggest twist of the summer. Adam and Shelly are one duo, Kalia and Porsche the other. They say that BOTH of them (Rachel and Jordan) would come off the block if they win veto.

Very odd.

But at least they stopped crying.

There was a Pandora's Box. Porsche got $5,000.

UPDATE: Y'know, I don't think the nominations did go down during the feeds block. I think Rachel and Jordan are just assuming they will be nominated. I think the assumption is right. I'll let you know if things change.

A full report will be posted late tonight.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Friday Morning 8/26


A very sad Jordan

Now, we all need to remember that this is a game. Sure, it's an important and probably life-changing to some extent game for the hamsters themselves. But it's Big Brother. Betrayals and backstabbing are the norm. Winning competitions or being perceived as a strong competitor puts a target on your back. Yet, when there's an upheaval, there is drama. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Pancakes (get it? you flip pancakes!):
  • I hate to see Jordan so sad. She's usually such a delight to watch on the feeds.
  • Not so much after the feeds started up after the show.
  • Cussing, crying and having a general hissy fit.
  • Oh my.
  • Later she cried some more because she felt she embarrassed her family by misbehaving.
  • Aw.
  • As we all could have predicted, Adam gravitated to the new power group, stranding Rachel and Jordan on their own little Pity Island.
  • Shelly was also in tears feeling bad about betraying Jordan.
  • But strategy-wise, that was the best move she could make for her own game.
  • Rachel, still in her silly furry boots during a California summer, ran around the house demanding her stuffed dog Mr. Crackers back.
  • Jordan and Rachel packed Jeff's bags.
  • And cried.
  • Rachel and Jordan are all but bereft. It's hard to tell if they're going to be able to get their acts together to win anything from this point forward.
  • The feeds were blocked for the HoH comp which sounds like it was similar to the practice set-up in the yard.
  • You know ... the one I mentioned that Porsche was surprisingly good at playing.
  • Yup, there's a new HoH.
  • And she's a car, a Porsche as a matter of fact.
  • Kalia's short reign garnered her a basket delivered to the storage room.
  • Porsche got the full HoH treatment, including a letter from her little brother.
  • The next target seems to be Rachel.
  • Well, duh.
  • The new gang of four -- Shelly, Adam, Porsche and Kalia -- plan on telling Jordan about Rachel's "deal" with Damiele in an effort to alienate Jordan and Rachel.
  • They all seem to really feel sorry for Jordan.
  • But they thought Jeff was too full of himself and controlling ... he had to go.
  • Although Jeff was my eye candy dude and I hate to see Jordan so sad, they're right.
  • It was a good game move.

A sad Shelly


Being accused of taking Mr. Crackers


The new HoH. Yes, really.

Not live feeds, but here is the rest of the Jeff/Julie interview:

Big Brother 13 Live Double Eviction Show Party 8/25

Photobucket

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. But the real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in!

Blog community member Petals decided that the ship in our blog pool (big pool, I guess) needs to be christened. She wrote this up:
"Today we come to name this lady “Miss Chevious”, and send her to seablog to be cared for, and to care for the Jackie’s TV Blog family. We ask the sailors of old and the mood of God that is the seablog to accept “Miss Chevious”, as her name, to help her through contestant passages, to carry those who cheer reality show contestants to victory, to safely float the loyal Jackie devotees, and allow her to return with her crew safely." Again, with the raising of the glasses, "TO THE SEABLOG...TO THE BLOGGERS BEFORE US...To…." Miss Chevious”!! *DRINK*

Filler and now speeches ... Daniele: Love for game, thanks, write Jeff and Jordan a paycheck, etc. Kalia: Vote for me! (Perhaps not a good idea as the vote is to evict!)

The vote to evict:
Jordan -- Daniele
Porsche -- Kalia
Shelly -- Kalia
Rachel -- Daniele
Adam -- Daniele

Daniele is out, let the fun begin.

HoH is a Before or After questioning.
Adam is the first out. Porsche, Rachel and Shelly out. Between Jordan and Kalia.

Kalia is HoH! Jeff and Rachel are nominated. PoV next.

PoV - Clowning Around. Search for two yellow clown shoes from vaults. One clown shoe at a time. Porsche won the PoV.

Rachel and Jeff get a chance to speak. Porsche does not use it. Rachel and Jeff are still on the block.

Rachel and Jeff get to speak.

The votes to evict:
Jordan -- Rachel
Porsche -- Jeff
Adam -- Rachel
Shelly -- Jeff

It's a tie. Kali makes the tiebreaker. She votes Jeff out.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Thursday Afternoon 8/25


Is the Cold War over?

Hmm ... some interesting events in the house overnight. I'm really not quite sure what to make of them. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Double Dealing Divas:
  • Things were going along as expected, with the hamsters practicing the roll the ball doohickey.
  • Amazingly, Porsche has gotten good at that one.
  • Then it happened.
  • Rachel and Daniele talked.
  • Rachel made the approach and, supposedly, it was to get the anger and problems between them in the past.
  • After talking forever and civilly, Rachel said something along the lines of "you never even came to me to ask for a vote."
  • Daniele guffawed.
  • Yeah, like that would happen.
  • Well, check out those flying pigs!
  • And I believe Hell has frozen over.
  • Rachel told Daniele she would vote for her to stay.
  • Along with votes from Porsche and Shelly, Daniele would have the votes.
  • Oh my.
  • The problem I have with this is that I don't really trust Rachel.
  • It could be that she's doing this just to have the final laugh as Daniele goes out the door, plus expose Shelly's betrayal to Jeff and Jordan.
  • Later on, Daniele met up with both Shelly and Rachel. They say the deal is on.
  • "I can't believe I'm dealing with the devil," said Shelly regarding Rachel.
  • Meanwhile, Jeff and Jordan know they've lost Shelly.
  • They have no clue about Rachel.
  • When Rachel told them of her talk with Daniele, she focused on little picky snippy things and didn't say not one word about the vote.
  • She acted like she and Daniele are still arch-enemies.
  • Yet they're giggling each time they pass by each other.
  • Until the feeds got cut for show prep, it looks like the deal is still on.
  • So, don't be surprised if Daniele stays.
  • Or not.

Jeff needs to be nervous


Dealing with the devil

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Wednesday Evening 8/24


Adonis pose?

The hamsters don't think tomorrow is the double eviction -- they're sure it's next week. What a rude awakening they're going to have, eh? Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother Habitrail of Harried Hamsters:
  • Usually on Wednesdays, things are fairly quiet. After all, the jig is up, the scheming is done.
  • But not this week!
  • Shelly is still working on Adam to flip the vote, then make Jeff the next target.
  • Adam is still noncommittal.
  • Adam is more afraid that Rachel will win PoV and put him on the block.
  • Even with both Daniele and Shelly trying to convince him, Adam wasn't buying.
  • Not that he's outright saying no, mind you.
  • He's doing the same thing he's done all season -- giving no hint, saying that they've given him something to think about.
  • Daniele keeps telling him that he needs to make big moves.
  • Yeah, like he'd even be in the position to make a "big move."
  • A bit later, Rachel and Adam shook hands on voting Daniele out.
  • I'm sure that's his plan.
  • Yet Daniele kept at Adam. Persistent lil devil, huh?
  • Thankfully Jeff got the HoH digital camera so the pathetic pleading stopped for a bit.
  • While I personally would prefer Daniele in the house over Kalia for my own entertainment enjoyment, this is getting so ridiculous.
  • Daniele knows that she's pretty sunk and is all but in panic mode grasping straws to try for a vote.
  • Daniele does have both Porsche and Shelly. All she needs is Adam. But he's not swaying. And, he's not the type to just say he'll vote to keep her if he won't.
  • If I were him under this level of interrogation, I'd demand a lawyer and end it all!
  • Even though Adam has been reporting Daniele's plottings, Jeff still has more suspicion about Adam than he does of Shelly!
  • And, no ... Adam has not thrown Shelly under the bus.
  • Yet.
  • After an indoor lockdown, they went to the yard to find a practice set-up for either an HoH or PoV comp (of course, they think HoH),
  • Since a picture is worth a thousand words, see the screen caps below.
  • It's almost impossible to roll a ball down that thing!
  • At least it will quiet Daniele's scheming for a while.

HoH practice


This isn't easy!


Daniele can probably skip the practice

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. But the real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in!

Veto player picking time -- Daniele plays with her ticket, Rachel is odd gal out (in more ways than one). She'll host.

Enter the ZingBot ...

Onto the veto game, ZingBot Labs. They have to assemble ZingBot brides. Jeff wins!

Veto meeting -- Speeches first. Porsche: Um, where I stand in the game, um, compete, want to win something. Kalia: Responsible for self, only way to keep safe is win the veto, keep me ...

Jeff takes Porsche off the block and puts Daniele on the block.

Eating the forbidden apple (cookie)?

This season is getting very perplexing. I demand a do-over with no returning hamsters! What? It's too late for that? Sigh.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Nervous Ne'er-do-wells:
  • Starting Monday night, it was time for BB to start bringing out the badminton set and dollar store arts and crafts.
  • Whoopee.
  • They did make neat little bendy people. Surprise, surprise ... Porsche is good at something!
  • Yesterday was another day of extreme pleading and pawing the walls for Daniele.
  • I personally would rather Daniele stay than Kalia, but it's not anything related to the game.
  • Sure, Daniele does make the game a bit more competitive.
  • But that's not it.
  • On the feeds, Kalia drives me up the wall with a host of odd little things she does.
  • She's already been threatened by BB with a penalty nom for her incessant singing.
  • If she isn't singing, she's whistling.
  • If she isn't singing or whistling, she's tapping or practicing making odd faces.
  • When she's not doing any of those things, she's pulling loose hairs from her head and tossing them on the floor. I'm not talking one strand, mind you.
  • Atop of all those habits, she talks all the time and at about 100 MPH.
  • But enough of that.
  • Daniele has managed to sway Shelly, but will it stick?
  • Shelly worked and worked on Adam to no avail.
  • He wants to stick to Jeff and Jordan.
  • Shelly even tried to work on Rachel.
  • Yes, you heard me.
  • More along the lines of keeping Daniele over Kalia, not jumping alliance ship, that is.
  • There was EGG DRAMA in the house when BB gave them an Easter egg coloring kit.
  • Um ... wouldn't that have expired by now?
  • Rachel wanted to decorate some of the lots and lots of already hard-boiled eggs the Have Nots have.
  • Kalia didn't want her to. She claims the dye seeps into the eggs and wanted Rachel to make her own boiled eggs.
  • @@
  • It was all but a brouhaha!
  • They ended up using Have Not eggs, but not without resentment and discontent.
  • As things stand right now, it looks like Daniele will not have the votes to stay.
  • If Shelly is smart, she'll vote with her alliance rather than expose herself as a target sleeping with the enemy.
  • I should mention that Daniele was sneaking a cookie under the covers last night.
  • That's my top screen cap.
  • That, of course, technically should be a penalty vote.
  • Wanna bet BB won't do anything about it?

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Monday Night 8/22


Not a good birthday week!

After such a boring yesterday full of haircuts, hair dyes and "what if" scenarios, the doodoo hit the fan today. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Swirling Dervishes:
  • As I posted earlier, Jeff saved Porsche and put Daniele up in her place.
  • He kept Kalia up there mainly due to his earlier vow that if she put him on the block, he'd put her up.
  • Although Kalia and Daniele had worked on Jeff to put Rachel up, we knew that wouldn't happen.
  • This is a good game move for Jeff, especially if the votes hang in and Daniele actually goes. She's probably the strongest and most driven competitor in the house.
  • However, she's also a shrewd manipulator.
  • She's already working on Adam and Shelly, not only for the vote but to get them to see that they don't stand a chance with Jeff and Jordan in the end.
  • Adam is always hard to read, but I think he's just thinking now with no clear promises to anyone.
  • Meanwhile, Shelly told Daniele she would vote for her to stay.
  • Daniele worked up the previous Jordan winnings, Jeff's won money already this season and more.
  • Shelly once again said she wasn't there for the money although she'd like the win.
  • In the past she has mentioned she doesn't receive her stipend, then production cut the feeds.
  • This time she got the whole bit out ...
  • ... she gives her stipend to HER COMPANY every week as a "thank you for letting her be on the show"!!!
  • (And I'm NOT a multiple exclamation point user!)
  • What the heck is up with that?
  • Is that even legal?
  • Of course, this is from a woman in this day and age who hasn't heard of pita chips. @@
  • Kalia is working on Adam and Shelly, too.
  • But she doesn't quite have the power of persuasion that Daniele does.
  • While ten days ago, they were thinking this week would be the double eviction, now they think it's next week.
  • Oopsie!
  • Unrelated I know, but Adam's standing moving back and forth from one foot to the other while everyone else sits, bugs me.
  • Either stand still or sit! It's as bad as Shelly zooming around cleaning when they're on lockdown.
  • Right now, there's mistrust all over the house.
  • Rachel, unfortunately, is sitting pretty with Jeff and Jordan.
  • Shelly and Adam might flip, it's hard to tell.
  • Actually they might do better teaming up with Kalia or Daniele and Porsche, numberswise.
  • But they still suck at comps.
  • That's where we stand for now -- a ball of confusion in a spool of lies.
  • Good.


Sit down already!

Big Brother 13 HoH Completion/Nominations Show Blog Party

Photobucket

Tonight's show won't air here in the NYC viewing area until after the Jets game (which started at 7 PM). So, they're saying 10 PM, but who knows? There are sites online with the east coast feed, so that might work. Anyway, I'm getting this post itself up on time and ask folks to give brief updates if the show is airing on time in your area.

Jeff won HoH,
Kalia and Porsche are on the block.

Off Topic - That Was the Week It Was - August 21, 2011

It's Sunday morning, time for my weekly off television topic look at the week gone by in both words and photos I've taken. If you're looking for BB13 content, check out the post before this one and the one after it (once I get that one written!).

I've not had a good week. I realize the week before wasn't great either with injuring my knee and setting back the recovery. Well, this past week was even worse ... starting last Sunday afternoon. I had the most awful stomach virus I've ever had in my life. I'm still not quite over it.

I had to cancel my orthopedic surgeon's appointment I had for Monday. So I scheduled it for Friday as surely I would be better. Well, I lived through the trip, but that's about it. I was weak, sweaty and shaky all the time I was outside. The good news is that he checked out the knee without all of its swelling from the week before and declared it well enough to go back to physical therapy.

So I only left the house one day this week. I actually got a few decent photos (I think). Clicking on an image will open it larger in a new window.


Mushroom


Bees in a flower

I have no clue what kind of bees these are -- they're very small with green heads.


Whazzat?

Hmm ... is that a vintage Rolls Royce sitting at the traffic light of Union and Mountain Avenues in Bound Brook? The driver is on the wrong side!


Why yes, yes it is.

I wonder what year it is?


Oh 49 Rolls

Thank you, sir.


Bingo neon

I keep trying to get a decent shot of this sign from the bus. It's on West 7th Street (if it's still West 7th) in Plainfield or maybe just over the border into Piscataway. I love old neon.


A pet peeve of mine

PLURALS DON'T HAVE APOSTROPHES. Unless Saturday is possessive, there should be NO apostrophe. Who started that apostrophe stuff? I see it all over the Internet. That was drilled into me in grammar school. You don't want to get me going on it's and its.


Sad closing

What? Two Fish and Five Loaves is closed? They've been a fixture for years in downtown Plainfield. I've had their fried whiting sandwiches on more than a few occasions. Sad.


Sprouting fungi at the base of a tree

We've had so much rain this past week that I'm surprised they're not sprouting on people who stay still too long.


A carpenter bee is looking at me!


Slithery creepy bug


As long as YOU are comfortable, Vincent!

I have this set-up next to my computer chair so I can elevate my knee(s). You see, if I sit with my legs down for any long periods of time, the healing knee swells and gets painful. Of course, Vincent thinks it means he can sprawl over both of my legs. He's lucky he's so darn cute!

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Saturday Evening 8/20


My eye candy boy

I realize I already posted the winner of the Power of Veto. However, I need to get you up to snuff with what's been happening in that Big Brother House of Indecision since my last full update. So, this starts with last night ...
  • Rachel's good behavior lasted all of one day.
  • As night fell and booze arrived, she reverted back into The Bad Seed.
  • Now I know many think Daniele is a mean girl. I personally don't. I think she's been stepping up and playing the game, albeit with some foolish errors on her part.
  • Rachel is the true mean girl.
  • She kept harassing Daniele, asking for all of her old HoH treats (which Daniele said she could have), rubbing it in about her birthday as a Have Not, talking about when she turned 25 (last year), repeatedly asking Daniele what was wrong and why she seemed so quiet. Was she depressed?
  • When Daniele, who gave very little reaction, went to the backyard, Rachel stood there for a moment with her death glare eyes reminding me of Billy Mumy in the old Twilight Zone episode wishing people to the cornfield.
  • Then she followed Daniele out there.
  • When Daniele went back inside, Jordan snapped at her to stop it.
  • Rachel gave her annoying little giggle.
  • Sigh.
  • Meanwhile, everyone in the house either saw or heard of the incident.
  • Shelly is still on her anti-Rachel wagon although she's agreed to work with her for Jeff and Jordan.
  • Shelly, Kalia and Daniele giggled and giggled about the thought of cutting off the foot of Rachel's (still hidden) stuffed dog and putting it on her pillow.
  • I don't think I'm mean. But that would be funny!
  • I guess I'm mean.
  • Thankfully the alcohol conked Rachel out.
  • Kalia made Daniele a crown and sash and the crowd sung "For She's a Jolly Good Fellow" -- royalties free, of course.
  • BB told them that birthdays are celebrated on Sundays only. So something should happen tomorrow, too.
  • The other big celebration of the night was Jordan's humilitard.
  • No, she didn't put on a strip show like Adam did with his elf suit.
  • Eventually came morning ... then later morning ... as they were in indoor lockdown with lots of construction noise in the yard.
  • Finally, after lots of scenario thinking and an extended feeds block, the feeds returned with Jeff the winner of PoV.
  • It was a puzzle.
  • Jordan says she couldn't get even one piece done.
  • That (stupid) Zingbot was there.
  • They can retire that idiocy at any time, please.
  • Since then, in between eating, working out, non-game talk ... it's hard to say what Jeff is going to do.
  • He's definitely not sure he'll use it.
  • If he doesn't, the target would be Kalia because she's sneakier.
  • If he does, Daniele will be backdoored.
  • Shelly still hates Rachel.
  • Kalia still hates Rachel, yet had a long pleasant civil talk with her.
  • When you're on the block, you do what you have to do.
  • But Kalia SERIOUSLY needs to stop pulling on her hair, then throwing loose strands all over the floor wherever she may be.
  • I cringe each time I see her do that.
  • The veto meeting isn't until Monday.
  • Who knows what could go down between now and then?

A crown and a sash for her 25th.


Cruddy has a chubby dance


Jordan finally got out of the humilitard


At least hard-boiled eggs don't crunch

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Friday Evening (inc. noms) 8/19


A content Big Jeff

It was a busy busy day for those little hamsters spinning in their little wheels. Let's get right into it! Here's what happened today in that Big Brother House of Maladjusted Mutant Ninja Hamsters:
  • All of them are paying the price for their HoH comp workout last night.
  • Better them than me. An ambulance would have hauled me out early in that one!
  • Even the backyard is still suffering with suds here and there.
  • At least BB didn't put them through the rigors of a tough Have/Have Not comp atop their aches and pains from the HoH comp.
  • What happened this time is that BB had an outdoor lockdown.
  • When they went inside ... lo and behold ... hard boiled eggs and jalapenos abounded!
  • Those, of course, were America's choice.
  • I was kind of hoping they'd get that funky fruit, durian.
  • Jeff had a card from BB, He started to read and the feeds cut down.
  • After a very short feeds cut, they came back and Daniele, Porsche and Kalia are the Have Nots for the week.
  • Daniele took being on slop well, especially considering it's her birthday tomorrow.
  • BB does usually let Have Not birthday people have cake and ice cream.
  • None of the three think it's fair that Jeff just chose them and there was no competition.
  • Neither Daniele nor Kalia will eat the jalapenos.
  • Nor would I.
  • Jeff laid down the word with Kalia. Without coming out and saying he was putting her up, he reminded he that he had told her before that if she put him up, he'd put her up.
  • She acted very calm yet concerned.
  • In the talk, she threw Rachel under the bus for doubledealing with "the other side."
  • Then she went into the Have Not room and cried.
  • After another outdoor lockdown ... voila! A smaller table!
  • Kalia fussed about Jordan not having on her humilitard for four hours while sunning.
  • Adam kept his on all the time.
  • Adam doesn't sun.
  • Nor does Jackie, but that's for another forum.
  • Jeff had a talk with Daniele telling her that he was keeping his word and not putting her on the block, but not to use the veto.
  • She said she wouldn't.
  • Yeah, right.
  • Jeff believes her as much as I do.
  • Yet another feeds block for the nominations ... and back ... and what a shocker!
  • Jeff put JORDAN on the block!
  • Okay, just messing with you.
  • Kalia and Porsche are nominated for eviction.
  • There will be seven veto players tomorrow because Daniele is playing with her ticket.
  • She actually doesn't want to win and thus wouldn't have the dilemma of using it or not.
  • But if someone else wins and uses it, she knows she could be backdoored.
  • After yet another feeds block, the PoV players were revealed.
  • Everyone is playing except for Rachel. Rachel is hosting.
  • That's where we stand ...
Oh ... an additional note I forgot to mention:
While Julie is acting like the double eviction will be such a shock for the hamsters, it won't be. No, production didn't tell them. They had already figured it out by tracking the weeks -- the schedule is way too predictable. BB should have flung it on them the second week or something to throw all their comp tracking awry.


This time BB actually trusts Rachel with a knife.
(Last time they took it away as she
was stabbing the coconuts.)


Very concerned


Who's that in the Have Not room wearing a sombrero?
