Jimmer:Since conspiracy theories seem popular, I'll offer one right now. The houseguests are currently quizzing each other (LOL Jedi drilling) going over answers to possible questions that they think BB might ask in the final HOH. If BB wants to fix the HOH and it comes down to a final question or even a series of questions, all they have to do is review the tapes and pick questions that they know that the HG they want to have win has got right during the Jedi drilling. I worry that if a final question is say.. something like.." If you add the combined ages of the house guest what number would you get?" Dick and Danielle have a advantage because they both know she is a year younger then every one else was told.

A ringer is someone like an expert who is brought in to play a game under false pretenses.

RE: : "The water thing". First, I have seen them show "The water thing" on the plasma tv inside the house and the HG's have seen it, just like they all saw the fireballs on the plasma screen last year. The explanation could be as simple as BB reprimanding the houseguests just one too many times and flat out explaining that the feeds have to go to the water thing every time they talk about someone who didn't sign.

Then why did Dani say "When you said" as she is talking to ED.

Maybe they were cited with specific examples, and that's the one she didn't get (understand).

My explanation makes more sense than a conspiracy IMO.

Dani said "when you said her work." Dick says, "...'cause they didn't sign a release." Dani said, "Well, my work didn't either; well my manager did." No feed watching or conspiracy there. It's simply about certain people not signing a release.

Would Eric's girlfriend having a connection to Holly be a conspiracy as to HOW he was chosen for AP and the game? or are the theory's only good if they are about Dick and Daniele?

I love all of the "conspiracy Theories" because they make Dick even more popular which makes the producers love him even more. I'm sure he is getting just that he wants. His aim was to be the most hated houseguest in BB history. Please keep the theories rolling in.

If his aim was to be the most hated HG in history, I would say he made a good start on it. What a lofty ambition. That tells me all I need to know about him.

But Allie he isn't the most hated house guest. Dick has a lot of fans. He may be your most hated but over all he doesn't come close to the NH, or even Boogie.

gail: what dick did to jen was not sexual harrassment, just boorish behavior. to be harrassment the harrasser must have power over the other person. definition: What is sexual harassment? Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination, which is illegal under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or Title IX of the Higher Education Amendments of 1972. According to guidelines issued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, sexual harassment may be described as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other physical and expressive behavior of a sexual nature WHEN... submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment or education; submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for academic or employment decisions affecting the individual.

Lafatme, you are quoting federal law. Try California law about creating a hostile work environment that causes a person's performance to suffer. It could be argued that BB is a workplace since it's not a "game show" according to CBS. They are all contract workers, aren't they?

Gail, they went to vortex pretty early one night, but someone....I think Dani or maybe Jameka was talking about the terms in their contract and it said about verbal abuse being expected.

If the BB house could be considered a "workplace"... then the kitchen should have all those mandatory federal statements about unemployment, discrimination and sexual harrassments... Those statements have been in every employee kitchen of companies I've worked for....

I can only say that if anyone really believes they can break that legal contract that has to be signed in order to be allowed to play Big Brother then I say more power to you. I remember houseguests in prior years talking about taking it to a lawyer and being advised not to accept it because you are essentially giving up all of your rights.
