The way Kalia has such a phobia about people's loose hair laying around, could you imagine how she would be living with Chima? lol They all complained about Chima hair everywhere.

Good morning Mummy. I share your irritation with computers this morning. Our internet went down for a bit and caused chaos. It's quiet in here. I don't know about everyone else but I am ready for the first eviction and next HOH so we get some new scheming and plotting. I really really want Lawon to get it and foil Kalia's big plan but I don't expect it to happen.

Is it the plan where she convinces everyone she wants to go home so she and Lawon are nom'd then she ends up with the golden key or something like that?

Watching some flashbacks, they are all talking about accents. It drives me nuts the way Keith talks, instead of with you, he says wit chu, and for that it's dat and them is dem. Would you all consider that an accent or dialec? I don't think it's a black thing, because Kalia speaks perfect english. Just don't know what it is.

I have a hard time with Keith's speech as well. It just sounds uneducated and lazy and I know that is not the case. It adds to a stereotype.If I was around it all day it would make me jumpy. It sounds like he is always in a hurry.

I'm in IL too Dawn and you're right, I don't notice anyone talking like that here, at least not people I come into contact with. Jeff's accent is very Chicago, northern type accent.

Nana it's called ignorance on the part of Keith. I have not noted that he speaks like that consistently but I will start paying attention. As an African American who is quite articulate I have had others say " you talk white" and my reply is ..........I talk like Marameko.

It is more black dialect to me. I taught third grade for 32 years and that is the way many of my black students talked.Another one that used to drive me crazy was screet for street.I always corrected that.

True Mara. Kalia doesn't talk like that either. I don't think it matters if you're black or white, it's how you're brought up and taught to speak. I think someone telling you that you talk white is quite rude. Like the color of your skin has diddly squat to do with how you speak lol.

Ugh ! Listening to Brendon believing he is the grand manipulator and manager of everyone in the game is so obnoxious. He 100% knows what everyone is doing and why. He exemplifies the statements " Often wrong, never in doubt". And he finds it necessary to control with total humiliation. Everything he attributes to someone else is something he himself is doing within the game. Every time he opens his mouth he becomes a bigger jerk. One day I would love to hear what Danielle really thinks about him.

Sorry had to leave and take my husband to work. Yes Shenagagon her big plan is to have herself and Lawon put up and pretend she wants to go home. Then she will have the BeBacks vote Lawon out.

OMG, Marameko, how rude to say that to you! I do agree with Nana that it is how you are brought up. I corrected my students for many dialect and English errors. I would get so discouraged because I knew when they got home they were going to hear the incorrect way.

i have a feeling farther into the game when these two alliances aren't an issue that we will hear dani's true feeling about brendon and/or rachel. she laughs at rachel A LOT but she also does it a long with brendon.

Shelly is the player whose actions during the vote are going to interest me the most. Is she lying to B/R about being loyal to them? She probably is but I can't understand why she'd want to lie to them when they'll find out quickly after the vote. Or is Shelly really with B/R? What about Kalia? I'm dying to know if these 2 are voting for Keith or Porsche to stay. Has anyone seen Shelly or Lawon talk to their partners about B/R thinking they are voting to keep Porsche? I recall Shelly telling B/R that the others think she's voting to keep Keith but she's not.

Southern I have white and blacks do that to me; they don't realize that I perceive anyone who says that to me as stupid. A man I really liked < tall, skin like black velvet..........quite yummy > said that to me and my response was that I sound like your daughter; he never said it again! So I just over look the comment.

I read somewhere that while there was speculation that this season may be an "all stars", Brenchel and Dani often spoke about aligning. I think this is a continuation of that. Dani takes emotion out of the game and keeping these two strong players around, who annoy other people, is perfect for her end game. Brendon is as loyal to her as he is to Rachel. He totally admires and respects her game. She has him wrapped around her finger and , right now, she can lay real low and just cosign almost everything he says. It doesn't endanger her. She just strokes his ego.

Dani plays Brendan like a fiddle. At times it seems Brendan has a crush
