Dallas, GA? I will have to get out my map! In my college days I knew people from Vienna (pronounced Vine - ah), Rising Fawn, Enigma, and Lyons, but no Dallas! The total conbined populations of the above named towns at the time I was in college was maybe 200!

Since there seems to be more males than females. I wonder if 2 of the males will enter the house later.

I'm not all that excited about BB anymore, but need a break from very frustrating politics. Here are my thoughts on some of the HG, just by reading their ages and "job" descriptions: What the hell is a bikini barista? Lawyer in swimwear? James is 'currently' biking around the world? How will he do this in the BB house? A 'paparazzo'...WTF kind of profession is this? Professional Parasite? Allison??? Pharmaceutical Sales???? Are they trying to get Allison on CBS AGAIN??? A couple of 'realtors' - well with the housing market in the toilet, I guess realtors are prime beef for BB. Of course we have a bartender, model, a couple of college students, and the usual fake occupations that get cast. And an OLD person of 45 who will be one of the first ones out. Same old, same old, with the same old stupid lame 'twist'. See...not too excited...wondering if it's even worth $14.99 a month.

Well, just my opinion, but it seems to always be worth the price! They seem like an innocent, naive bunch, no Dick's in waiting that I can spot! Here's to a great 'winter' season of Big Brother!!!!

I'm with Cindylou - it's always worth it if it's Big Brother. I have the "bring it on" attitude. If they give me a Big Brother, I will watch with glee. :-) Rosem - a barista is a person who serves in a coffee bar.

Here is the link for BB9 Superpass 14 day free then your choice $14.99 a month or $39.99 for 3 months. http://www.real.com/bigbrother I called Real and they told me too, that there will be no early bird special until the regular season. I signed up a few days ago. Here are the URLs I am using. (They also URLs listed on BBQ web site) rtsp://start.real.com/rd?pid=bb9_live&url=cam1_256.rm rtsp://start.real.com/rd?pid=bb9_live&url=cam2_256.rm rtsp://start.real.com/rd?pid=bb9_live&url=cam3_256.rm rtsp://start.real.com/rd?pid=bb9_live&url=cam4_256.rm rtsp://start.real.com/rd?pid=bb9_live&url=quad_256.rm

it's a big thing on the west coast Rosem- female coffee waitresses in bikinis (they gotta compete with Starbucks SOMEHOW).... also- a papprazo is the singular form of paparazzi- you know, a tabloid photographer.. I don't know how they're going to exactly work the "Til Death Do you Part" tagine in the article....this could be interesting..realitybbq is reporting that at least at first they will be evicted as pairs, but some may come back in the house (my guess? After the first three or four pairs are evicted-one person from each group comes back for "revenge". If it's after four pairs, that would make it an 8 vs 4 fight- not impossible odds, especially if you can peel one of the pairs to your side...) we got 2 from Ohio, 2 from Mass., 2 from Florida. Those might be 3 pairs right there.... 3 from California (there might be another pair there) and one each from NY,Minn,Iowa,Kansas,Texas,Oregon,and Georgia. Looks like an interesting group..they go in the house Thursday according to Realitybbq. Once we know exactly who the pairs are, we probably can go from there on who's most likely to go...

A Bikini Barista is someone who serves coffee in a bikini -- it is an attention getting approach by independent coffee shops trying to compete with all the Starbucks... The trend is spreading..

after seeing the cast, I assure you all that I'm not getting feeds until the first eviction. THese people all look like cookiecutter wannabee types IMHO I have a feeling it is all going to be "fixed" and already decided like last season. Most of us knew Dani and Dick were earmarked to win right from the start. We should know pretty quick this season too. IF SO, I may not get feeds for the first time since BB1.

Thanks Puppypaws for the real player info! I guess I got the idea it was only going to be on a monthly charge VS 3 mo price from an e-mail from reloader ---> this part of there e-mail ** This year RealPlayer has raised the price of the SuperPass. The SuperPass is free for the first 14 days and then just $14.99/month. You are saving money by getting the Reloader for free on top of your SuperPass.*** I so hate My Budget right now LOL. Has anyone gotten the reloader tis year?

Carrly the Reloader doesn't time out like the feeds! And you can actually have all feeds up and running at the same time and just mute the one's you don't want to hear! I used it because I am on the East coast and it lets me Record and I like leaving the feeds running and listen if I am busy!

What Seattlemom said Carly. It used to be $4.95 for the season, but if you order RP through them, it's free. I'm surprised RP isn't giving the $10.00 discount this time. For the first time, I don't think I'll be getting the live feeds. Dick ruined BB for me and I'm not wasting my money again. The only thing I might get is the 14 days free, but I think I'll wait and see what everyone thinks of the HG's first. I thought about Showtime, but there really isn't anything else on to justify spending the money. Can one still record off Showtime with satellite TV? When I go the those stations it doesn't show "Record It." I'm wondering if that's because I don't have access to them at this point. It would be hard to stay awake through the feeds every night.
