Oh yes, I do believe that America's wishes were granted in both Dan and Jerry's cases. They won for different reasons. It was obvious all over this board and other boards who was going to win and why. It was overwhelming in both cases.

Dan photoshopped, hahaha. If that was the case then he wouldn't hug Keesha cause that could be photoshopped too showing maybe the two of them laying on a bed instead of standing up. I agree with Mrsmel. I believe that BB chooses who they want. I base this on the fact that they don't show how the vote is going.

Keesha has been so tired of hearing Michele moan she wants to go to college but can't because she can't afford it. Finally Keesha said, Michele, you can get grants. You can go to school. Now they are all pitching her ideas to get funds to go to school. They are all sick of hearing her sob story. They all had to get loans and grants to go to school.

I don't think BB can rig the votes when they are taking money for them, imo.

Michele is certainly getting her covers pulled here. They are all telling her how she can get money to go to school. She is wondering how she never heard about this.

I don't think they rigged it either. Jerry has been on slop for most of this game...he's been married for 54 years...his wife is ill. I can totally see why Jerry got this call. I think Renny is more bugged by Jerry not telling his wife he loves her than she is by him getting the call. She has thought Jerry has been inappropriate from day one when he grabbed April's boobies. And she feels he has said things that are totally inappropriate for a grandfather/great grandfather. And now, he didn't tell his wife he loves her. She doesn't like Jerry...never has.

For whatever reason, I am happy that Jerry got the votes... If it was rigged, so be it, this is BB. Maybe, just maybe, his wife was having a hard time with the separation or she was having health issues... and CBS wanted her to be able to speak with Jerry... So they came up with this whole notion of the phone call and made it seem like everyone was i the running... I don't know the behind the scenes, but it is Big Brother and I like it when they mess with the HGs

Funny that they shot down Michelle's "I can't go to school because I can't afford it - I'm struggling". Telling her anyone can go to college - federal grants.

Boy if any of them go to the photo chop on Survior Sucks site they will just die of embarrasment!!! I guess Jerry isn't one of my favs so its hard for me to see how he got the call. Watching the live feeds makes you see things very differently. I personally think he is too old to be on this show. The physical and mental stress is too much for someone his age.

Thanks Beekind. Most companies offer paid educations if you maintain at least a C average. Surprised her company doesn't do that. I too find it hard to believe that Michelle didn't know about grants and loans in the eleven plus years she's been out of high school. She's playing the sympathy/pity me card.

Althought I don't belive ANYONE can go to college and that it's NEVER too late. I want to become a teacher, but I'm 33 and have 2 kids at home. Even if I got grants, who would pay the bills if I'm at school instead of working a full-time job?

Michelle lives with her parents and has no children. She drives a big car that gets ten miles to a gallon and she drives it around all day doing her real estate stuff. Her financial situation seems to me to be such that if she made a few small sacrifices, she could go to school if she really wanted to. Instead, she talks often about needing to win the PowerBall.

Michelle is single and living with her parents. She doesn't have any dependents or overheads (like rent).

I thought I read or heard that she moved home to help her parents out after her brother had a car accident?

Steviegirl, you would be surprised. My cousin worked....some and between the state and govt, they pretty much paid for her to go to school....it was one of those ESPECIALLY since you have children things.

Steviegirl, It can happen. I was 35 when my first DH died. I had 4 children under 12 and I went back to college (had had 1 year) and worked full time. It was not easy and we were poor, but with grants, loans and social security help, we made it. I taught school after that for 30 years. It was well worth the sacrifices! Go for it girl!!
