Kal-- it depends on the situation. In our case it was very truly necessary. I'm just saying that sometimes the situation calls for that. There's no true or false about it.

People need to stop with the woes me. The alliance of 5 never put Dick or Daniele up. Did they talk about it yeah, but at that point it was just talk. They were not threatening to do it, or trying to make it happen. Things could have gone a lot of different ways that didn't involve Dick and Daniele going up this week. Or next week for that matter. They played it wrong, because they came up with a backdoor plan with no actual way to succesfully do it. It is fundamental for any plan that it at least be successful on paper. Their plan was not even successful on paper, yet they continue to push it to the end. Acting like what has happened the last 4 days was D&D's only chance in the game is ridiculous. Lots of things happen over time. You have to be patient and make your move when the time is right. Not jump the gun, go off half clocked expose yourself when you have no protection and essentially flush your whole game down the toilet. Nothing about how Daniele have managed this HOH reign has been smart nor good for them. They have fumbled at every turn.

Geri..my polnt was most HG on the block generally work to save themselves. But Dick had to offer Kail a deal to get her to work to stay in the house. Plain weird IMHO. Flower..I have a feeling there is a lot we don't know about Dick and his Mom and what went on, so i think it's hard to say. From what I could gather (and some is my guess so don't want to say it as fact at all!), Dick asked him Mom to help him out so he could manage keeping the kids and she refused. Either she got full custody or wouldn't give him any help. If those facts are indeed accurate, I'm not sure that I agree with you. Clearly Dick needed to work, earn money, and needed some help with the kids. I don't see why he needed to sign over custody for his Mom to help out. Seems he wanted to stay more involved and got pushed out. Anyway I'm VERY glad you were their for your niece! Just saying it might be a different set of cirumstances here.

Thank you Bonbon. My law experience is limited to 2 years of highschool law classes. A semester of practical law, a semester of Business law, and a year of playing lawyer in a school alternative punishment program called Youth Court.

is it banner time then.. put up dustin and he will go lmao. I really think that Amercia wil lchoose dustin to go if he is put up. Even though every shred of evidence indicates the contrary. There is the only place where there is a strong sentiment to break the alliance of 5 up. Most places are split or in favor of keeping them together as is the general public. I have been saying for days now that there is no way anyone from the Alliance goes home if put up. I have never felt stronger about that.

Since the diary room seems to be so much "steering" this year maybe they could convince Dani to put up Amber. Surely given the choice, since Kail is effectively out of play, America's vote would be to put Amber out and she would go with votes from Dick, Jen, Zack and Eric as America's Player. That way they at least take away one vote from the other side and I don't have to ever see Amber again until the finale.

Actually Costa there was a late night campaign on this board by Fan3 and myself to get people to vote Jameka just to screw Eric.

Wow, is that what Eric is doing? Wrong move. Saying she's got things mixed up, or he doesn't remember it like that would be much better than calling Jen a liar. Eric is blowing his whole game because HE hasn't talked to Jen himself. He keeps talking to others about talking to her, but they are talking to her first. He needs to talk to her alone.

Exactly, Lurk. Different situations call for different actions. I guess I'm a little sensitive to this subject because it was and has been a very difficult for us and I would hope that no one thinks the same thing about us! Nuf' said. This is OT.

Seems to make Amber and Eric even for the abortion comments now I guess. Although the outrage here does not seem to be comparable. I guess leaking a secret someone told you is worse than being an anti-semite.

Klaw - Because Eric has been humping her leg since they got up. We don't "know" but it appears likely. They just had a long conversation 1 on 1.

OT a bit. Every season we have done "America's Choice" and voted treats for the HGs. This year I guess because of America's Player we have not. Has anyone in the house mentioned that none have gotten an America's Choice and none have even been offered? I would think if they truly know the game they would be suspicous about this.

They are both horrible Marksman and I haven't heard anyone say any different. Both of these people are not who I want to win any money. I can't stand them.

No prob Flower...at all! That part of why I wish they stayed on Dick. I would have liked to have heard the full story. But least it does shoe he tried, which is what some HG kept accusing him of not doing early on. But clearly diff situations require diff actions! I still wonder if most BB fans aren't internet saavy enough to at least have clue what goes on at the major boards? At least the ones who care enough to vote!! And Bonbon!!! Who knew you were a lawyer! Should have guessed from your strong arguments

S009 - Nope. But I bet Goddessatlaw can back me up. There is no way CBS would win a lawsuit because someone flew a banner plane. Sure they potentially could. They have all kinds of angles to attack. The reality is it does not matter because they will spend the 100k to keep them tied up in court for as long as possible and if they are lucky get the banner pilot bankrupt in legal fees. The actions they are taking are potentially harmful to their business. They certainly have grounds and reason to try and protect themselves. People are not just free to do whatever they want. Not how it works.
