What does this mean? I'm having a prob with some of the Aussie slang....LOL

"Ryan revealed that he had experienced a "rub and tug" in the past." It was when he was talking about Krystal's career.

Does it mean what I think it means or no? Please keep it clean or PM me if you think you have to on this one....

And another question: Does anybody know what their schedule is for nominations, evictions, food challenges, etc?

I'm not sure but I thought I heard Afro say something about nominations on Friday. And someone else mentioned the 'show' on Friday--perhaps the pool shot is up because of that tonight?
BTW--did you guys see that thing hanging off the camera? I can't make up my mind if it's a dead bird,bat or bug! lol
I do hear their voices now and it is cutting in and out-so I assume they will be back soon.

HL:

Here's the definition from the Urban Dictionary:

"A Massage palour - A Place a person goes for a massage and hand relief"

Yep, that was it. .......... I'll try and 'splain that tonight more on my recap as I think it gets covered in the show I'm downloading right now.

Nominations are on Sunday (Saturday our time) and the food challenge was on Wednesday this week (but I can't remember now if that was their Wed. or our Wed.) I assume it will be the same way next week.

Let me answer this question before it gets asked ........ if you're wondering what the letters "MLS" stand for on Ryan's blue t-shirt, it stands for "Major Losers Society." Which is his unofficial "club" of boys he grew up with. There were a couple of his friends in the live audience there to support him before he went into the house and they all had the same shirts on.

If you have any questions about any of the other HMs I can't help you because I only pay attention to Ryan.

I just noticed when Paul was doing the dishes that when he was washing the wine glasses in the soapy water, instead of rinsing them with clean water, he just removed them from the soapy water and put them upside down on the countertop???

Wonder why...

I suppose "Because he's a man" is not a sufficient answer?

Are you guys having problems with RealPlayer? It keeps crashing on me. I'll have to spend some time solving the issue. I was just wondering if RP is acting up for you guys too.

Scorpio, sometimes Real will crash on me after a few minutes. I close it out and seems to be OK for awhile.

Sometimes I can go for a long time without it crashing and other times it seems to crash every few minutes.

The thing I don't like is the echo effect I seem to get more often than crashing. Sometimes I can stop it while it's echoing and start it again and there's no echo.

I haven't found this problem with anything else involving Real yet except for BB Australia so I keep on with it.

It hasn't gotten so bad for me yet to stop BB Australia. But it is annoying....

What kind of connection and computer do you have?

Go into tools > preferences > connection > and then lower your "normal" connection speed to something less than 256K. The problem seems to be happening when the feed is being sent at the higher speed. I set my player so that it would not accept the higher speed and would be forced to send something lower. That seems to have pretty much fixed the fatal crash error.

As for the sound, I think it's a memory thing. I notice it more when I'm multi-tasking. When I'm just watching the feeds, it's not as bad.

Of course inevitably it's at that exact time when the feed goes to POOP.

Also, these problems are universal as people are complaing about the same thing on another forum. It's definately on BBs end.

Oh Clio! You're a lifesaver! Mine was set to a T1 connection. I lowered it to a 512 connection and life is soooo much better! No more echo and no more choppy picture. Thank you!. :-)

I'm on cable BTW.

I'm about ready to catch a flight over there to pull them panties off Aph's head and shove them up her...can't say that....LOL...sorry

What's up with her wearing panties on her head the last couple of days?????

Yellow yesterday and now an aqua blue kinda color today.

And more importantly, whose panties are those? Hopefully, they're her panties.

But still, the Princess Leah look with the leg holes over the ponytails is a but much.

I think I need to check out cheaptickets.com

Do her drawers have "vote for me!" written on them? They might as well.

lol Clio--
Hamsterlady- I was trying to figure out how to capture a picture of that to post on here.
She is annoying but entertaining--she cracked me up talking about thrushing through the house.

She is lively though and keeps the house going--poor Merlin!

Last night, I saw her wearing orange ones. She's is pretty funny and hasn't gotten on my nerves quite yet...

You know, now that I think about, with past BB's, if I remember correctly, there's always one out of the first two nominated who goes a bit nutty.

It's 8:16EST. Is anyone watching? They're doing their obligatory night of drinking and giving BB tons of good footage.

I caught the end of the party last night when the girls got sick and had to be put to bed.
Cat, Bree and Ash seemed to be the worst.

Did anyone catch today? Seems that Merlin went to the'boys' and told them that he doesn't want to hang around all the time with Aphro and what should he do?
Paul (the pontificator) told him to tell her to leave him alone and Merwin said he HAS but she doesn't listen.
In the bedroom at the same time-Aphro was telling the girls about him and they (Cat) told her that it looks like he cares for her. I am getting a big kick out of these two.

Paul is getting on my nerves today-yelling at everyone for not recycling the plastic. Granted-he is right but what an attitude he has!

He hits Bree in the head with the ball and tells her I know and you know it didn't hurt--she said her temple hurts and she now has a headache. He doesn't even apologize!!

humph--I no longer find him attractive--Merlin is my love

I'm in Oz for a few weeks right now and I'm trying to catch as much of the show as I can on TV. (Mac here, feeds won't work.) I have to say that Igor doesn't seem long for this house. He's gross.

I also have to say that these blond, beautiful surfer boys are great to look at but not much to listen to... not the brightest bulbs in the pack.

(Got my feeds to work.)

I do love how no matter where BB is held, the HGs seem to have the same conversations. Just now, in the kitchen, one HG tells another, "The people on the internet can watch us 24 hours a day, no matter what we say and do." Another: "No way!" "Yes, everything." "No!... They must edit it first!"

LOL--silly hamsters. No matter the country, they don't seem to understand what they've signed up for.

(Wish they had FOTH, though. I resent the high-pitched test tone and the shot of the pool.)

That test tone is new, they have always done that. It used to just be silence while we got "POOP."
