Bee, thanks for all the updates, well except for one
But ultimately when you vote, you’re voting as an individual. So if it’s a member of your own clique and you haven’t ‘clicked,’ so to speak, you can still kick them out.”
I take this to mean if the Brains clique wins HOH and nominates one from Popular and one from Sports, if you are one of the other members of the Sports clique you can vote out the Sports clique nominee. Could be a good strategy in the beginning of the game if you form secret alliance with members of other cliques, then voting out someone in your own clique seems to weaken your perceived voting block making you less of a target for the next nomination.

"That will include living in this really sparse, horribly cold, cold room. And having to take cold showers and, of course, subject to that week’s food restriction. This is like living on a block of ice in the middle of a room under bright lights that never turn off.”

I thought, as Americans, we DO NOT TORTURE!!!

And ..... they still have SLOP.

Me 'n Bee HATE SLOP!

I hate the slop too. Maybe it's just me but I don't find miserable unhappy people very entertaining to watch.

I don't like watching miserable unhappy people either. However, I do think the slop and particularly the potential for slop adds a great dimension to the game and I think that people who are miserable and unhappy on slop as opposed to those who suck it up and deal would find something else to be miserable and unhappy about.
ETA - Of course I have never been on slop so what the hell do I know.

The Have and the Have nots" Why do they do this? Heck we are living in a country which is full of diversity. Put real people together in a house and see how they deal with each other, see how they learn from each other, see how they turn on each other. We do not need these gimmicks which make the living conditions a joke.

Ok, I'm getting a little tired of the cookie-cutter cast. I think the producers sat down again and said, "We need one gay memeber, one muscle bound guy that we know is going to a jerk, one girl who's into nothing but looks, and one that is older than the rest, then we'll just fill in the rest with pretty people."

The only thing they are doing different is they are throwing in a geek. (I should know...I am one.)

I also don't like the way every show has their challenges being "gross-out" comps. Eating nasty stuff or drinking nasty stuff. Even BB is getting to be this way. I prefer the mental and physical comps. But I keep watching anyway.

I would think the “returning”/13th HG will be evicted the first week his/her clique is not part of the group with the HOH.

(Thanks, Bonza!)

Red...I've read somewhere that there is a possibility that the Mystery HG will have a one week immunity. Dunno if that's true or not.

As for the room, I have a picture of what is supposed to be the room, but it's too big for me to post. I'll describe it until I can get it resized. It's grey, stark, what looks like thin mattresses on the floor. Nothing else. And the lights never go off in there.

So if you lose one of their silly competitions, they put you in a prison cell.

This, to me, is not entertainment.

Bee...

It makes sense that the returning/mystery HG should have one week of immunity as the HGs generally feel once you’ve been evicted you've had your chance.

The only exceptions I can think of are Sharon, who lasted to the final four and James who got the boot the first time he didn’t win the POV.

GurlieGirl doesn't want the long holiday weekend to go any faster, but also wants the 9th to be here soon. What a conundrum.

Bring back Kaysar!!!! That would be awesome! Or maybe Dr. Will.

I've got it!!! Julie Chen could enter the house and add her screaming, soon-to-be newborn into the mix. That would put the houseguests on edge.

St. Petersburg Times, 7/2/09, St. Petersburg teacher lands one of 12 spots on 'Big Brother' show

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ST. PETERSBURG — When Casey Turner wasn't teaching at James B. Sanderlin Elementary, he was DJ Mingle Mixx, cranking tunes and running bikini contests most weekends at Gators Café in Treasure Island.

Now, the fifth-grade teacher has a third role: one of 12 house mates on CBS' Big Brother show.

Turner was among thousands of applicants in a nationwide search that included a screen call in Tampa, where he stood in line for hours to be interviewed.

CBS officially announced the cast members Wednesday. Turner, at 41 the oldest member of the cast, is sequestered in Los Angeles until he and his other cast mates enter the house when the new season begins July 9.

But Turner's wife of four years, Janice, who works at the International Academy of Design and Technology in Tampa, spoke Wednesday. On Friday, a camera crew came to their Burlington Avenue home and whisked Turner away. They drove him to the airport, and although he flew commercial, he had an escort.

ok, well if he has been doing DJ stuff maybe he will fit in and not seem so out of it to the "youngin's". I hate when the old guy is ostracized. It is not fun to watch.

and I had the have not idea, I can see that on the streets, don't need it on TV to get it.

One strategy that's going to be impacted with the *cliques* winning HoH is that of throwing comps. I could see some people being MORE likely to throw the comp if they think a member of their clique has a better chance and can't nominate them, and I can see people throwing the comp because they want a fellow clique member they dislike to go home.

I wonder if there will be incentives to stay loyal to the clique?

Hi Everyone. I am back for BB once again and I have a lot of questions since this is my first time here in a very long time.

Are there any good deals on Real Player? I usually wait until they get to where it costs about 9.95 for the rest of the season.

I just got this new laptop 2 days ago and boy oh boy am I ignorant about all the ins and outs of using it. Does anyone know of a site where I can check out my speakers/volume?

Based on reading just this last page, I doesn't sound like many of you are very enthusiastic about this season. I need to go back and read lot of pages to see what's going on.

Is there a quick link to the contestants?

Thanks, I'm looking forward to chatting with friends, new and old, over the summer.
