You can add me to the list of unemployed - 4 months. (Will never poo-poo Friday the 13th ever again). The store owner got into it with Mall Admin and decided to close us So far I've only been offered 10-15 hrs/$10 hour. And they all tell me I'm over qualified as I've been Asst Manager and Manager Hopefully I can find an office job as retail is VERY fickle If I remember right, HGs get $750/week. Pick me, pick me!

Wahmmy, I think you're right about most of them. They do seem to resent their lives. Ian is just having fun with all of this - driving Boogie crazy with that which I'm enjoying immensely! Dan and Boogie both just want to win BB again. I'm rooting for Frank, I like him personally, and I think he's been the most honest one in there. Not saying he's totally honest, since you can't be in a game like BB, but compared to the others' outrageous and ridiculous falsehoods, he's a saint!

Boogie and Dan discussing the charades game from last night, getting a handle on Joe and his ineptness at game playing! Interesting what you can learn about people from playing charades.

Rosem, that was only during season 1 but it's how they do it on every other Big Brother in the world still. That original format, it was the producers here that changed it to basically a version of Survivor in a house. In a discussion group I go to, if anyone suggests that season 1 or international versions are better (partly due to public voting for eviction),they say but then all the interesting people are voted out first. Which really means the overly aggressive people it seems. But the public can only vote out the people they collectivly nominate and they don't always nominate who you want them to. Like in BBUK a few years ago there was this guy called Science who was noisy and obnoxious but didn't get nominated for 4 or 5 weeks. I couldn't stand him but the people in the house just wouldn't nominate him. Besides I think when the noisy, overly dramatic or aggressive people are evicted, that gives the other peoples' personalities a chance to come out more. Like with Russel Hantz from Survivor, so much time was spent on him that many others barely got any camera time at all. If he had been voted out sooner, we might have had a chance to get to knopw the other 14 players (or however many). Ok. long rant over, back to your normal programming.

Hi Leannie. Yah, Boogie is kind of hard to take in long stretches. If his life was so good, why is he still there?

Boogie and Dan talking strategy again/still. They do not want a newbie to be with them at the end. The jury would vote for a newbie over them for sure. They are sooooooooooooooo annoyed by Joe. Dan really pushing for Joe to go.

I wonder if Ashley will remember her time in the BB house. It would be awful to have a once in a lifetime experience and not remember it

Boogie and Dan are getting mad that Joe is LOOKING AT THEM.
Dan is making his case for booting Joe. Joe could get booted for looking at them. Me: "Don't make me stop this car and come back there!!" ETA: Paranoia at it's finest, folks.

Rosem, it is like shooting balloons. Why should they force Joe to sit there by himself, not look at anyone and to keep his mouth shut?

Back to Boogie, as a parent I just can't see doing anything to miss the "firsts" that you experience with children. And this goes for Janelle too and I am a Janelle fan. You just don't get those times back again (no do overs) and bottom line, it is the most important thing you ever do, is to be a parent, so I think that is where you should give your all. Okay, I am done.

Is Ashley still having back problems? The producers and the medicals have got to make a call on that soon, even if Ashley isn't fully OK with it.

Oh how I wish the next Q&A comp for HoH was based on stuff the HGs have said publically in the house.... Remember one season they did that? "who has a dog named ___? Who is the oldest in their family? What did _____ say was his/her favorite car? " A lot of these people would fail because they are holed up in HoH all the time. Or like Boogie, they aren't interested in talking to the peasants unless it pertains to garnering a vote. BB would never play that comp again, but I would love it! Maybe a luxury comp, where the top 3 get a special reward? (dreamin'!)

Calimom, that kind of comp would be one made for Britney. She is always asking the most personal questions of everyone, and remembers everything they say, usually so she can use it against them later.

It's nice to be here. I always lurk around here. Thank you for welcoming here. I do not understand if Ashely has a bad back why are they allowing her to remain in the game?
