Caprica - IMO, the pre-existing relationship between Casey and Jessie isn't much if any. They were at the same event once. Doesn't mean they know each other.

Edit: Having met someone and knowing them are two entirely different things. JMO.

Lurk, that sounds like a camel back cricket. They look a lot like a spider, but they're a cricket. Better call the exterminators for them to spray, because they multiply fast. Very creepy looking and they jump so far and fast, it's almost like they're flying.

Chit, I think next week will be very telling, esp depending on who gets HoH. Right now no one is ready to say anything bad since that is the clique in control. In past years I'd say I'm also looking forward to some DRs and finding out how folks actually feel about each other, but last couple seasons BB has really dropped the ball on that.

They seem to care more about constantly stirring and presenting drama then letting us know what indiv hg are thinking.

Anyway I have faith that Russell's demanding and superior manner will win thin w/people. You think Ronnie LIKED being called out by him repeatedly? Of course he didn't say anything with Jesse in power, but I'm sure he made a mental note.

Do they know each other or were they just at the same event?


I haven't heard either of them mention knowing eachother...or being at the same event. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

OMG Nana I never heard of that in my LIFE but it sounds like it. Thanks for the info. It jumped so fast I then jumped almost as much. Gonna go Google it. Is there anything I can spray cause exterminators here cost a FORTUNE and right now I don't even have a teensy bit extra.

Only place I've seen it (dunno if it is one or more) was in my basement right by the stand up freezer. But no open food there (I did drop a bag of veggies and thought I might have missed a frozen couple since I still can't bend well). But typically no food down there or anything to eat off of.

If it were production rigging, that wouldn't make sense because Jesse had to brought in. Wasn't a given so how could they have used that? I'll bet BB is just as surprised about this as we are. It's such a random thing.

Lurk, I agree about Russ. I think what we've seen of him is all he has. I also think that if he is EVER put up he'll go use his size to intimidate. I'd like to see Casey be the one who finally puts Russ up because I don't think Casey would stand to be strong armed. We'll see.

I've taken a break from the feed since late yesterday afternoon (but FF through a lot of Showtime, this a.m.) I'm going to log on and see if anything is happening.

Lurk, they make products especially for killing crickets. My folks used some kind of liquid stuff and set up cricket bait traps. Got them at Home Depot.

I don't know if there's anything over the counter that can kill them, Lurk. They like to hide in dark places, basements, crawl spaces, inside cabinets. I had one jump on me once when I opened a cabinet and it stuck to me, ewwww. I hate them things. Let me know what ya find out on google, if ya would?

I agree La. There have been conspiracy theories about house guests knowing each other almost every season. If there were anything to this AG would been playing it up as a plot point and encouraging them via the DR to hang out.

I just have no trust in Grodner after BB8. That season was so rigged. I believe her goal is to produce the game and the show not just the show.

I'm just curious, how are Russell and Casey working together? I've not been much of a daytime viewer so I probably missed something.

Nana you may be right. What I found it is there are a LOT of different looking pics of these things. Many look the wrong color BUT the one on Wiki looks very familiar.

Thanks Laj good to know. Was just gonna tell Nana that one site sells a slew of products that specialize in them from baits to traps to all sorts of stuff. I'm still looking for more photos cause I'm not 100% sure that is what it is, but looks like a close cousin if not the same thing lol. That's why I love BB and this board. We can learn so much about stuff we don't know in our lives.

So I'd like to thank the HG's for having a weird cricket problem and you guys for knowing more than I do about it lol. The one I saw seem bigger, blacker and more legs than the pics but only went to 3 sites so far. They do say they often start in the basement so that is right on.

EWWWWWWWWWWWWW is all I have to say. The funny thing was the first time it jumped at me, and then watching me repeat a similar jump. Well funny in a somewhat painful way lol

Laj we have a really good (and expensive) hardware store in town. BUT they sold industrial strength bee killer powder that the big stores didn't carry. Wonder if they may have more options. Well first I need to make sure that is what it is. Also, far as I know I've only seen one (that I accidentally chased under my freezer). Any chance it's a lone traveler??!!

Caprica, I've had no trust in AG based on her close relationship with AS, who've I've had no trust in since day 1. Plus they just don't seem to be aware what their core audience wants, and seem to love their "better' ideas. SIGH

They quietly sit outside and 'chat' frequently. Russell confirmed as much today with Jesse in the SR. Jesse knows Ruseell wants to keep Casey, Natalie wants to keep Chima nd he wants to keep Natalie. They talked about that this am in HOH. That's all I have gotten from my puzzling while watching.

Lurk, those chemical stores would probably know exactly what that bug is. But IMO a cricket is a cricket. Should kill them. You may be right though. Could have traveled inside via a pant leg or anything else.

Lil, VERY late last nite (early this am east coast time), several HG including Jesse, Natalie (would they be apart...nooooo), Laura and hmmm Ronnie maybe, no think it was Casey not sure was still half asleep, were talking.

Someone said how no one would dare put Russell up because they would be scared how he would respond. NO ONE said a thing. That to me said folks are scared, but when a scared person how the HoH power that can change, esp if they think they have the votes first.

I don't think Russell has played a balanced enough game to win or go very far. After all, beyond intimidation and putting folks down via superiority, what has he done? Who LIKES him? I sure don't lol

Laj don't make me scream or worse scared to go to my basement lolol. I desperately need to do wash and my machines are down there (not by the freezer though phew). So far I now go there and shake thinks around. I figure i'm bigger it's more scared of me! lol.

I was thinking as for that store....I recall that near 10 buck bee powder was pricey BUT FAR CHEAPER than the well over $100 exterminator visit last time I had a bee problem. They aren't a chemical store, but a good old fashioned hardware store that specializes in specific things not the big generics of Home Depot and Lowes.

Russell got Jesse to put up who he wanted on the block both before and after POV. He has stirred people up to start fights to keep spotlight off of him. He has successfully used Jesse's power to his advantage w/o anyone catching on. He played Lydia like a fiddle and got away with it. He is very good at this game so far. Don't like him but I will give props when they are deserved. But I may be seeing things completely wrong.
BTW, Chima saying retard all the time is getting on my last nerve! It's always in her vocabulary. I'm a special ed teacher so I take personal offense.

Laj, geez I didn't know Casey and Russ were working together. Anything that can keep Casey in is ok with me. But doesn't Casey have a little something with everyone?
