Honestly, what parent would expect money back from their child. My oldest son "owes" me a lot of money and I would and still do send him money just because I know every little bit helps. Just recently I told him I would pay for his cell phone bill. He moved to California in November (I drove him there and paid for everything) because I wanted to make sure he got there safe, then flew back. I would do anything for my children.

Plus Amber has Made so many predictions on how God has told her through dreams that shes going to win Veto's and Hoh and so far she hasn't...That has to be weighting on her..To think that God isn't coming through with her prayers...(No pun intended)

I wonder if "God" hurt Dick's eye for being so hateful.

It is not at all unreasonable for a parent to expect to be paid back for money they lent to their child, IMO -- especially if that was the term of the loan.

Mssas...my sons pay me back when they need to borrow money. It teaches them responsibility and respect. ETA: If I choose to GIVE them money, as I often do, that's one thing...but if they BORROW it, I expect them to repay me.

How long does the nomination ceremony usually last? I haven't watched the feeds much this year and have forgotten how long they take. I'm trying to decide whether or not to stay up and watch the aftermath or go to bed and read.

there's some good articles on Joker's in defense of Jen that many of us said HELL YEAH! when we read them. there's a new one posted just now, that strikes a very good balance, imo, and is worth a read while waiting for noms http://www.jokersupdates.com/jarticles/article.php?article=1120

I think its different when they are young ..they ask to borrow and hardly ever pay back...But since my boys are grown they hardly ever ask to borrow money and if they do borrow they pay us back... My problem is them not asking but me offering...lol Since my little granddaughters came into my world i cant seem to pass the childrens department ...I help more so with the girls but its my own doing!

My folks (who are low-income) lent me money while I was in school. I paid them back. I believe that if you borrow money or whatever else, you need to pay it back no matter who the person is that lent you the money.

I guess it depends on what the money was borrowed for. Maybe Dick lent her money for something specific and she used it for something else. something like $$ to pay for college tuition, and she goes and buys a dog instead ....I would be upset if my son did that.

Judging by some of the screen caps the clothes all looks kind of , shall I say, unattractive.

lol missyb, i call them 'i am getting to old to figure out why they find that attractive' style. much like men who wear their pants half way down their butt, WITH a belt and underwear showing. looks like they are carrying a load or can't fit in their big boy pants.

Oh the clothes they got were awful. Dani certainly has a stylish way of dressing and none of the things she got seemed to compare. Nothing I saw was attractive and it looked rather cheap.

TV, I love this from Tweeds article on Jokers "don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things".

Someone in an earlier post this week made a brilliantly accurate statement "Jen takes up a lot of real estate in Dick's head" I would apply that to many of the others as well. They constantly bring her name up....they should just enjoy this moment they all worked so hard for a Jen free house.

I can't believe we are down to 7 HGs already! And I would be okay if 5 of those 7 win. Pretty good!
