Renny hasn't like him FOREVER. It really has to be bugging her. Puppy - I was sorry to see him go. He was just the nicest guy. I started watching when they switched nights w/BB and I always thought, "Now why can't he be the one on BB?!" I was sad when he left last week.

It was painful to watch every one having to pretend they gave a care about anything Jerry was saying when he was in power. I don't know how they put up with his snotty know-it-all ways. I give them a lot of credit. I personally talk back and put Jerry in his place a lot !!! LOL !

I'm sure BB is in touch with her family and they will make the call on whether to tell her or not.

That's so scary. And you just know Renny is going to be livid about not being told.

Watching2, I think Bill & his dog Star were the best part of that show, and as sweet as he is, I don't think he could survive long in this messed up game.

That'd true PP. I didn't see it from the beginning and missed a week after I started watching, but all I know is he was just so nice. He would probably be too nice for BB. I guess I'm going to go watch racing and check in later. Have fun and take good notes.

Gustav is now expected to hit as a Cat 5 on Monday. The reports I've seen on various news channels are less and less "qualified" with the possibility it will divert or ease up, and are more and more blunt about the likelihood of its power and destructiveness. I think Renny should be told now.

rehey. I'm not sure if they should tell Renny since she would just worry and can't call anyone. I do think her family should come out to LA now though! At least keep her people safe and hopefully her property will be ok again. Scream, is that safely removed from the storm area? If not it sounds idiotic!

Isn't it usually the practice with BB to tell them of events that have occured, if necessary, and not events that may occur?

What could Renny do? The airports will be closed. She can't go home and her family has probably left town. Nothing to tell her as she also took the chance that its hurricane season when she signed up for BB.

So, Dan got a basket of games and crafts for his birthday, huh? He must be the favored son. (This is a joke)

I think the family can let CBS know if they want Renny to be notified. Last year Ryan's Grandpa died and he was given a letter from his family and the option to leave the game.

I don't know exactly how far Renny is from New Orleans, but the mayor of NO said major damage just from 100+ mph winds are expected at least as far as Baton Rouge, 80 miles away from (I think) the Gulf. . . And the west bank, largely spared from Katrina, would experience storm surges up to double the height of their levees. "Storm of the century" was the phrase he used.

They're not going to tell Renny unless her family asks them to. I doubt they will do that. There have been other events and the HGs have not been told about them. The only two exceptions to that are 9/11 when the three remaining HGs were told...because Monica had a family member involved. And also because of the nature of this event, it was brought up on the show itself. And Ryan, when his Grandfather died. He was then given the choice of leaving the game or staying. His family had told him it was alright to stay in the game. IF something happens to a member of Renny's family, then BB would tell her.

On the other hand, I think that if they wait for a couple days, Renny's family will have had time to evacuate and can give her more specific info. Today, she could do nothing more than worry. Obviously, she can't go home. . .
