Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Friday Morning - July 20

Frank is HoH because Boogie is so great. Cough.

 So, the tides have turned and Boogie is acting like Frank's HoH win is all due to him. In reality, Frank's win is solely due to Frank. Of the four coaches, Boogie has done the least, often choosing napping over coaching. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Fractured Follies:
  • Britney is miserable. She really doesn't know what to do.
  • Willie told her not to "save" him if she wins the coaches comp.
  • The general consensus this week is that Willie must go.
  • Well, duh.
  • That's such a surprise!
  • Ian doesn't want Willie to be bamboozled out.
  • I don't think Ian realizes his name keeps coming up on the short list of folks to go away soon.
  • Boogie and Frank are turning to their own little bullying ways -- they say if Willie wins PoV, they'll put up another from his team in lieu of him.
  • Joe thinks both Shane and Willie should be put up together to ensure one goes home.
  • I don't want to lose my eye candy!
  • And, I'm surely not talking about Willie ...
  • Dan and Boogie don't want to be saddled with ANY of Britney's team if a trade is won by her.
  • Ian is vehemently against backdooring people. He thinks it's a lowdown way to go.
  • When Frank got his HoH room, despite speculation, Willie attended the festivities.
  • He was the first to leave, heading out to the yard to smoke a cigarette.
  • Poor Britney -- it's now all three coaches against her.
  • Sigh. I had high hopes for a BritJan takeover of the season.
  • Ian admits that Willie does need to go as he had been a bully, but they shouldn't be sneaky about it.
  • Right now, other than Willie being the target (duh), I'm not sure who Frank will nominate.
  • Most are still awake as I get this posted.

Big Brother 14: Live Eviction Show Blog Party! July 19

BB12 Blogo 3

Although one hamster left last week, this is our first live eviction show of the season. What's that mean for us? It's PARTAY time! I'll be posting the major events of the show right here in this post. However, the real fun is the party in comments. Come watch the show with us!

The voting to evict -- Willie will only vote if there's a tie --

Danielle -- Frank
Shane -- Frank
Joe -- Kara
Ian -- Kara
Commercial time
JoJo -- Frank
Jenn -- Kara
Wil -- Kara
Ashley -- Kara

As it was decided on the feeds, close ... but Kara is going home.

The HoH comp has to do with the BBTV New Bulletins. Cat Burglar films. It's a question and answer comp.

Frank is the new HoH! Willie stomped off.

Twist for coaches -- the coach who wins this week's comp can keep one of their people safe OR trade a player. Only HoH isn't eligible for the trade.

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Report into Thursday Afternoon - July 19

Frank packs his bag

Remember to stop by tonight for the live eviction Blog Party -- the post will be up by 9pm EDT.

What's been happening since I last posted? Well, they had an unbelievable amount of "BBTV Special Bulletins." Oh my. They'd just lie down and the alarm would go off again. Poor hamsters. Oh, well. They knew the job was dangerous when they took it!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Harried Hamsters --
  • Danielle, who is probably the least likely to win any comp, told Dan she threw both the veto and HoH. @@
  • I don't know if you can claim "throw" when you just "can't."
  • Kara cried.
  • I may be mistaken, but I don't think Boogie even bothered to go to at least one alarm.
  • It's possible I didn't see.
  • I guess.
  • Items were going missing from the house, so they must have been burglar alerts. They were blocked to the feeds.
  • In the actual morning, Boogie talked to the Internet and one bear.
  • A lot.
  • Since his outburst with Frank, Willie's been trying to bully ...er, convince people to keep Kara.
  • It still looks like Kara is going.
  • They're in the primping and cleaning mode pre-live show now. 

Hamsters gather for a BBTV Special Bulletin

Frick and Frack

Now, if these hamsters had any common sense, they'd be in bed now. After all, they have a huge day ahead -- live eviction, new HoH. But noooooo, they are still up as I get this written. What's up (besides the hamsters) in that Big Brother House of Deluded Egos? Read on ...
  • Joe took all the nicotine patches and hid them to drive the smokers crazy.
  • Supposedly, it's still Kara going tonight.
  • So ... why are they all awake?
  • Why, it's because of BBTV Special News Bulletins, of course!
  • Teletype alarms have been going off through the house at odd intervals and they all have to gather in the living room.
  • They're blocking the exact content of the bulletins, so don't ask me.
  • We're going to have tired hamsters on the show tonight if this continues.
  • Apparently there are images unrelated to what the voice of BBTV is telling them.
  • They're working together in the pre-set teams trying to memorize things.
  • Wil/Janelle, etc. have noticed things missing from the storage room.  

Searching for clues

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Wednesday Evening - July 18

I have the cutest pool boy!

The technical issues with the feeds really need to stop. I mean, we have meaningless fish and unexpected trivia even. Sheesh! I had a few issues here myself as my power got knocked for a while by a storm.

As I get this typed up, I'm listening to Britney light into Willie. Cool. What's been going on inside that Big Brother House of Misfit Toys? Read on ...
  • The Janelle/Britney alliance split is still on. Sigh.
  • Dan wants to work with Janelle, not Britney or Boogie.
  • Willie's big non-physical fight with Frank has had a ripple effect throughout the house.
  • Frank came out of it smelling like a rose.
  • Willie not so much.
  • His New Hamster Revolution Against Coaches has also, in the end, had a negative effect on his game.
  • Silly Willie.
  • Janelle seriously needs to, at least for appearances, chill it a bit with Wil.
  • He's like a teacher's pet! That isn't a good thing in a houseful of children.
  • Right now it's still looking like Kara will go, probably a close vote.
  • If it's a tie, Willie will take Frank out.
  • Britney has gumption! Listening to her light into Willie about his stupidity and foolish actions was a hoot!
  • I swear he said "I'm sorry" at least 100 times.
  • They were on an indoor lockdown and went out to find a cornhole game.
  • So they should be practicing a lot tonight.
  • Yawn. 

That room makes me dizzy

Burn that cap!

Ashley looks haggard a lot

Big Brother 14: PoV Episode Blog Party - July 18

BB12 Blogo 3

So, tonight the hamsters vie for the Power of Veto. Will there be fisticuffs? Well, probably not. Perhaps we'll see some good footage, though.

As always, I'll update this entry with any major happenings. However, the real fun will be in the comments. Come join in the conversation! Bring beverages and snacks -- we already have the cozy chairs ...

Veto comp time -- huge washing machine. Race through the suds, find a coin, thow into coin slot on their machine. $1.30 exactly.

Shane wins!

The America's Choice for have not food -- liverwurst and licorice, pork rinds and pudding, tofu and taffy.

Veto meeting time -- to not create waves, Shane does not use the veto.

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Updates Into Wednesday Morning 7/18

JoJo

I think we might be due for a wager at this point. Will this crew of hamsters make it through the summer without fisticuffs or a walk-out? I mean, really, it's more than a house divided. It's mini-wars! What's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Bad Examples? Read on!
  • The timing is askew this season. Willie did do his blog entry last night surrounded by mystery and speculation.
  • But then they also gave him the HoH digital camera last night.
  • That usually goes down in the daytime on Wednesdays.
  • Huh.
  • They decided they'd have a "family" dinner last night.
  • Extremely dysfunctional family, I say!
  • It seems like the tightest mini-alliances are Wil and Janelle with sometimes Joe and Britney/Willie.
  • Wil cried because he thinks Willie made some derogatory references to his sexuality.
  • Willie denies it. 
  • I didn't hear exactly what Willie said. I wouldn't be surprised either way.
  • Dan thinks Britney sucks the life out of him because she's so negative.
  • Kara has decided that Shane is dead to her because he won't promise to help her stay in the game and will vote whatever way the house does.
  • Willie and Frank had a shouting match in the yard.
  • No fisticuffs.
  • Frank says that Willie did mock Wil.
  • Willie is aghast at Frank's "betrayal."
  • And on it goes.
  • Now Willie's trying to change the waffling vote once again -- this time to save Kara.
  • Apparently Boogie thinks Frank blew his chance to stay last night.
  • I don't know.
  • I'm getting dizzy.

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Tuesday Evening 7/17

Dan can still smile!

But I don't think Dan is smiling as much as he planned so far this season. He's more like a troubled man singing a troubled song than he is a cheerleader. Of course, he thinks that Kara is probably safe. He knows that Britney and Janelle despise Mike Boogie. He knows that, of the two on the block, removing Frank would remove a more powerful threat from the game. And, heck ... Frank's Boogie's guy! I mean, all common sense would have Frank going out the door this week.

But when did common sense dictate play in that Big Brother House of Sinking Ships? Read on to take a peek on today's happenings --
  • I really wish Mike Boogie weren't an early riser.
  • I'm not sure I want to start out my day with him. It might cast a pall over the rest of the day.  A bad omen. A demon seed. Something.
  • That said, Willie (who was up most of the night), joined Boogie this morning.
  • Willie thinks that the numbers don't crunch, someone will be coming back.
  • Maybe. But we know it's not Jodi. She wasn't sequestered. We'll have to see if Kara the evictee this week gets sequestered.
  • Willie, in his current streak of promising everyone everything under the sun, told him he'll protect Frank no matter what.
  • Of course, we know that won't keep Frank. And we know BritJan and Co. have already decided to keep him.
  • The hamsters decided to call their own house meeting.
  • It was like a little rodent uprising with their little whiskers moving, noses twitching and everything!
  • We don't NEED the coaches! The coaches need US!
  • Joe was the first one to crack for Janelle -- most of the ire behind the meeting was the rumor that the coaches will return.
  • That was fueled by no one other than Mr. Willie Hantz.
  • In between feeds getting cut (Housesguest, you are NOT allowed to talk about production!), Janelle got out that her contract says they cannot compete in the game, nor can they go to the jury house.
  • Joe is still one paranoid dude who thinks he's a target.
  • Janelle thinks Willie reminds her of Cappy from BB6 and that he's a bully.
  • Janelle has thought all along they should get rid of Frank this week.
  • It's waffled back and forth.
  • But it's been stuck on a Kara Ouster the past few days.
  • Britney thinks Janelle is now working with Dan instead of her.
  • Frank is now suspicious of the one who's been adamant about keeping him since the noms -- Willie.
  • The pressure is not only getting to the hamsters, but to the coaches as well.
  • Britney and Janelle, originally inseparable and claiming Boogie would try to tear them apart ... have been drifting apart.
  • Britney ended up having a breakdown, crying all of her problems to Janelle.
  • Apparently she thought this Returning Rodent gig would be much easier on her than it has been.
  • There was a long enough period of blocked feeds to be a comp!
  • Supposedly, Willie broke down (or something).
  • He packed his bag and went into the Diary Room.
  • When he finally came out, he was very tight-lipped.
  • He just said things change all the time.
  • Oh my.
  • It's more likely related to his HoH Blog and Twitter, but he likes drama.
  • Laters, Folks! 


Coach Janelle


Coach Britney

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Through Late Night Monday 7/16-17

The drugs are wearing off

My apologies for not posting last night. I had some technical difficulties. Thankfully, the main event of the day was still waffling. Yep, you heard me. Kara or Frank. Frank or Kara. This is what happens when you put up two people without a target in mind.

Here's some of the stuff that's been going on in that Big Brother House of Chicken and Waffles:
  • Joe and Wil don't trust Willie.
  • Willie doesn't trust them either.
  • Boogie thinks that Britney and Janelle are smart enough to realize they could sign Dan's eviction papers by voting out Kara.
  • Although that's exactly the reason they have waffled back to booting Kara.
  • Cracks are appearing in the veneer -- Janelle and Wil will eventually be targeting Willie, a Britney team member.
  • Ian is still a wandering lost by.
  • What I'm noticing is that the "devotion" to their particular coaches and chosen teams isn't going to last.
  • Cross-alliances are already striking up.
  • Willie told Ashley he wants to take her and JoJo to the end.
  • She believes him.
  • Shades of Russell
  • Britney, Ashley and Willie think the only person Janelle really cares about is Wil.
  • But, for now ... it looks like it's Kara going out the door.
  • For now. 

But I don't WANT Kara to go

Take Kara out, not me!

I'm the best player ever at BB!

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Late Sunday Night 7/15-16

Coach Dan

G'day, hamsterwatchers! I'm sure you're just dying to know the latest hijinks from those Big Brother Scampering Sillies! Here goes:
  • Ian had his big date night with Ashley.
  • While Dan had coached him on how to present himself, Boogie coached him on getting intelligence from her.
  • Heh. I said "getting intelligence."
  • Boogie wanted Ian to find out which girls SHE likes or not.
  • Britney was their waitress because Wil (the waiter) ended up being called to the Diary Room.
  • Most of the "date" was built around the discussion of organic chemistry.
  • @@
  • In their date game talk, Ashley told Ian she would be voting whatever her team votes.
  • Ian reminded her that it's really not a team game.
  • Many are really losing sight of that. But the teams are making for ready-made mini-alliances.
  • Ian thinks he "planted seeds" in Ashley's mind gameplay-wise.
  • Janelle thinks Willie is becoming too controlling -- he blew up because he thought she and Kara were scheming when they were just talking fluff stuff.
  • Janelle says she won't allow Willie to bully either herself or Wil.
  • NOW he's starting to sound like a Hantz!
  • Willie thinks all the coaches want to target the stronger players.
  • Well, duh.
  • Janelle thinks that Danielle has a big crush on Shane.
  • Well, duh.
  • JoJo says she'll go on a date with Ian next week with espionage in mind.
  • Can you see Ian and JoJo as a couple? Yikes!
  • Willie thinks that they should stop talking eviction until just before eviction because they keep changing their minds between Kara and Frank.
  • Y'think?
  • Ian spent some time alone talking to the camera in the Have Not room. He thinks he might need to win HoH soon as he might be a target. He also thinks Frank is going to go this week.
  • There ya go ... the news of the evening. As I get this posted, most are in bed but Dan is sitting alone outside.
  • UPDATE -- Now it's Willie and Ashley outside talking strategy. Willie is trying to get in with everyone. Hopefully his social game will be better than Russell's was!
Dressed up for his date night

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Sunday Evening 7/15

Hunka-hunka

The big event of today was that the PoV meeting was held. For feedsters, its a bit of a non-event as the feeds get blocked. Today's was even more of a non-event as we knew Shane wouldn't use the veto. The nominations remain the same. 

What else has been happening in that Big Brother House of Ill Repute? Read on ...
  • Boogie is definitely the early riser this year. Oh well.
  • He gave some shout outs and fussed about dirty dishes and ants.
  • Heck, the house has ant issues every year.
  • Paranoid Joe has been pushing the idea that BB will switch up the coaches.
  • Wil and Joe talked. Wil thinks that Willie has an agreement with Frank.
  • He does, kind of sort of.
  • Neither Wil nor Joe think that Frank could be trusted in whatever he's got going with Willie.
  • They're probably right.
  • Joe told Janelle that Frank and Jenn approached him about taking out Willie.
  • If that indeed happened, I missed it.
  • He says that Willie and Shane are their targets.
  • Danielle is STILL following Shane around like a puppy dog.
  • It's almost as creepy as some of Ian's oddities.
  • Boogie is trying to recruit Shane.
  • With Joe's telling on Frank to BritJan, etc., it looks like the tides are turning once again.
  • First the target was Frank.
  • Then it was Kara.
  • Now it seems Frank's in trouble again.
  • They're getting all psyched for Showtime as I type this up.
  • Don't they realize we're out here watching them 24/7?
  • Ian has been being coached on dating.
  • Tonight will be date night.
  • Oh well. 

The Odd Couple

Janelle is worried

Big Brother 14: Blog Party! 7/15 Episode

BB12 Blogo 3

Yep, it's even starting on time! As the show airs, I'll post major events right here on this entry. But the real fun is in the comments ... come join us!

The Coaches Competition will give them a new power. All four coaches compete this week to grant one player safety. It will also decide the Have Nots for the week.

Boogie won. He saves Ian. The Have Mots are decided by each coach. Brit - Shane, Dan - Danielle, Janelle - Ashley, Boogie - Ian.

Nominations. Ian is wearing a duck on his head and is safe. Key order -- JoJo, Shane, Wil, Danielle, Ashley, Jenn, Joe. Kara and Frank are on the block. Earlier they decided that they would nominate the two strongest players from Boogie and Dan.

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning 7/15

Oh my, what big chess pieces you have!

As I get this written up, the hamsters are all still sleeping. Willie talks in his sleep ... something about getting the bears. Um. Okay. Here's the latest news from the late night and overnight hours inside that Big Brother House of Recruited Characters:
  • Don't expect Janelle to ever do another "All Stars" season. According to her, it ain't gonna happen.
  • Ian can name every BB eviction in order. That's an obsession, for sure.
  • They had a flare-up when trying to get the fire pit started.
  • I'm not sure why BB gives them dangerous weapons.
  • Ian can kick himself in the face with his foot. I know I saw that on his Facebook page, now the hamsters have seen it.
  • Why? That's my only question.
  • Joe is STILL paranoid!
  • Willie told Frank that he is indeed Russell's brother.
  • So now the news is getting around. I don't think it will bear much weight with them at this point. He's getting known for his own merits or otherwise.
  • Jenn and Frank told Joe it wasn't their fault they were chosen by Boogie. They'd like to disassociate themselves from him, but can't really do that.
  • Since no one is telling him, Dan told Kara he thinks she has a 75% chance of staying.
  • Yeah, right.
  • She's still the latest target.
  • Although I would go for getting Frank out. But I'm not a hamster in the house.
  • Janelle thinks Dan is trying to send her on guilt trips when he tells her that she's his mother's favorite houseguest.
  • Dan's mother just has good taste! I only wish she had told him to stop shouting in the Diary Room.
  • Later today, expect the PoV Meeting! 

His knees are going to regret that someday

Chillaxin'

What? We're supposed to PLAY the game?

Off Topic - That Was the Week It Was - July 15, 2012

Good morning, people! If you're a Big Brother fan looking for a live feeds report, check out the post before this one. I will be getting the latest update up in just a bit. This is my weekly off television topic photo post reflecting on the week gone by in both words and photographs I've taken along the way.

I had a staycation this past week. Unfortunately, a stomach bug of some sort took up a good portion of my time off. On Wednesday, feeling a bit better, I thought I'd venture out to photograph the wildlife at Mindowaskin Park in Westfield, then hit up Trader Joe's for some goodies. 

What a mistake! They've let the park get all rundown, its pond covered with algae and smelly. I got a few shots, but saw no ducks or geese, my planned targets. The neglect of a park which had always drawn in such water fowl is sad indeed.

I took so many much better photos stopping by Bernice's garden after attending the opening of the Summer Invitational Photo Exhibit at the Plainfield Public Library. Once again, the photos at the exhibit were truly inspiring! I felt so proud to be a part of it last year and actually even a bit proud of Plainfield itself! Congratulations, Bernice!

I spent some time at the big Citizens Appreciation Day BBQ put on by Plainfield Firefighters, ate a bit and headed on home to catch up on my Big Brother live feeds. Yes, it's that time of year again. I return to work tomorrow already having received a text message from my boss warning me of a very busy week ahead. I guess it all keeps me off the streets and out of trouble!

Onto the photos -- clicking on an image will open it in a new window, clicking again will make it larger, closing that new window will send you right back here. 

Honeybee
Beeware!

This is one of the shots I took in Bernice's flower garden. What a sweet little oasis in the middle of downtown! Thank you for showing me around, Bernice!

Orange!
Orange happiness

Also at Bernice's.

Preying mantis
Pleased to meet you!

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds into Saturday Evening 7/14

Dollar store rugs?

Now, we all know that BB gets their arts and crafts for the hamsters from dollar stores. Apparently they get their bathroom rugs there, too. That said, it wouldn't hurt a hamster to sweep up all the cheap rug shreds all over the floor. It bugs me every time I see it. Get a Swiffer in there!

The schedule is a bit askew this week due to them having to have show fodder for the premiere. As a result, today was a bit of a doldrums day -- nothing scheduled, sunshine and boredom. Without further ado, here's what's happened today inside that Big Brother House of Whack-a-Mole Cousins:
  • The sloped and oddly shaped beds in the Swirl Room seem to have claimed another victim. It took a while for Shane, the first up, to look comfortable and he complained about his back.
  • Boogie worked on Shane to use the veto to save Frank, promising him safety and all.
  • No go.
  • The Ever Paranoid Joe questioned Boogie on why he would put him on the block.
  • If he doesn't cut it out, he might be on the block just because!
  • Anyway, he's always picking at food with his fingers. I know he's a chef, but he lives in a houseful of hamsters. Keep yer little hamster claws out of the food! Utensils!
  • Oh. And just after I took the screen cap of the bathroom (above), Boogie came out of the toilet stall and walked on by without washing his hands.
  • EW! EW!
  • Danielle is just short of useless in the game. Dan really doomed himself with his picks.
  • Ian spends his time between acting like a fool for the cameras to just lurking about making others uneasy.
  • Sigh. I had such hope for the boy!
  • They're still flip-flopping over who should get the boot this week -- Kara or Frank.
  • Janelle wants to stay quiet, then blindside Dan by booting Kara.
  • But then she also thinks of reasons to keep her.
  • It's going to be a long week in the house.
  • Willie, who has been growing a slight beard, says they told him he can't shave until Thursday.
  • We know that's so they can use clips out of order without worrying about beard/no beard! At least it's too early for them to air clips we know were taken three weeks ago and pretend it's news for the TV show!
  • Shane talked with Frank, acting like he's willing to be in an alliance with him.
  • Oh yeah, if they do indeed evict Kara (as deemed by BritJan), Frank won't know Shane had nothing to do with it and Shane gains an ally.
  • They already have the chronic problem of expired foods and fruit gone bad. 
  • Maybe BB gets its food at dollar stores, too!
  • Willie and Joe cleaned out the refrigerator. Joe kept sticking his fingers in things snacking and "testing."
  • Britney even called him out on that yesterday. Yet he continues.
  • I think they'd be happier if both nominees could go. It should be Kara, though.  

I can see him still dressed like this at 60

Th-th-that's all, folks!

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Saturday Morning 7/14

CarrotTop on the block

Hamsters in Limbo a'goin' on in the house! With the PoV meeting not expected until Sunday, the two nominees (Frank and Kara) are definitely feeling the stress. Even worse than that, it's hard for me to figure out who's going this time around! Normally there's a clear-cut So-and-So will be out. Not so much with these two.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother house of Rampant Rodents:
  • Willie really really wants to keep Frank for some odd reasons of his own. Supposedly he feels he can trust him more than he can trust Kara.
  • BritJan are pushing for Kara to stay. Their reasoning? Frank is a stronger player, get him out while they can. Frank is also one of Boogie's Boys. They do NOT want Boogie to remain unscathed if they have a chance.
  • Willie did have a heart to heart talk with Kara about working together despite coaches.
  • Oh my.
  • Shades of Russell even if Willie does sound and come across as less of a snake oil salesman!
  • Dan seems to be migrating a bit away from Boogie and more towards BritJan.
  • Willie and BritJan think that Ian and Jenn are spying on them.
  • The boys got their alcohol last night. Woohoo.
  • It put most of them to sleep before the others headed to bed.
  • Dan not only shouts in the Diary Room, he taps a lot.
  • And I'm not talking dancing.
  • Stop it, Dan.
  • Dan has been pleading Kara's case.
  • I personally think getting rid of Frank would be a better move. 
  • He doesn't entertain me much on the feeds.
  • So he can go.
  • JoJo is on the annoying side.
  • But, then again, she's from Staten Island ... where most of the Jersey Shore cast hails from. Enough said.
  • I don't care that Staten Island is about ten miles from me. They're a whole different world.
  • Joe is super paranoid that the veto will be used and he will go on the block.
  • Yep, his name has indeed come up!
  • But I don't think that Shane will use the veto unless BritJan tell him to.
  • While talking to Willie, Kara told him he has her word that she wouldn't nominate him if she won HoH. She wants Boogie's team out.
  • Willie, Joe and JoJo all smoke this year. JoJo smokes while wearing a nicotine patch. @@
  • WHOA! Now BritJan have changed their (solitary) mind! 
  • They have decided to take Kara out and get DAN out of the game!
  • Willie, of course, agreed.
  • It's what he wanted all along -- Kara out.
  • They decide not to say anything to Dan or spies, but to keep their votes intact.
  • So now it looks like Kara will be out the door this week, shiny knees and all.
  • And little Mr. Nerdy Ian better watch his game. His name as a nominee is being mentioned WAY too much.
  • Of course, anything can change between now and Thursday.
  • Stay tuned. 

Ms. Shiny Knees

A bundle of joy

Odd bedfellows

Definitely a young Tom Cruise with a better nose thing going on

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Update into Friday Evening 7/13

Fashion Police! Bust him. NOW

Of course, I broke the biggest news of the day earlier -- Shane won the PoV. Since he's on the Girl Coach Duo alliance, he's sure not to use it. But what else has been happening in that Big Brother House of Coached Kitty Feed? Read on ...
  • The Janelle/Britney bond is going to be a tough one for the boys to break.
  • Boogie wants to drive a wedge between them via one of their team members, but has no real plan.
  • BritJan like Dan, but know he's somehow automatically in with Boogie.
  • Dan has bigger problems of his own -- his decisions and his team suck.
  • They really do.
  • Of the two he has left since Jodi's early exit, Kara is his best player.
  • And she's on the block.
  • Danielle seems to occupy her time following Shane around in daze.
  • The PoV game had to do with coins, water and soap they all seemed to get in their eyes.
  • They're all really banged up, so it had to be rough.
  • Willie said he and Shane were really close to winning, but Shane did just a bit better.
  • They said Dan did odd things like directing Kara to stack coins(?) and having Danielle sabotage other players.
  • Boogie doesn't think Danielle's a school teacher like she said. He thinks she's in the medical field.
  • That was a stupid lie anyway.
  • Frank says that the coaches need them, but they don't need the coaches.
  • He's got a point there. They should never forget that they're playing individual games, not a team game.
  • While Ashley was in horrible shape last night and whisked away to a doctor today, she's not looking like Miss Death anymore.
  • Ian wants to dress up like a cat for the live show. @@
  • Apparently he wore a duck on his head during nominations.
  • Shane suggested that he use the veto to save Kara, then they could put Joe on the block.
  • Why Joe?
  • Because they're not sure of his vote to save Kara. D'oh!
  • It still looks like the veto will not be used. And, it's a toss-up between who goes home. BritJan really want Frank to go. Willie wants to keep Frank, but will probably go with BritJan. I just don't know. 

Ian is giving me great photo fodder

He'd look less like Russell sans cap
