My name is Cindy. I am 35 years old. I have worked for a regional ISP since 1996.

I have been with the BB fan club from the beginning and have loved every minute of it.

I am very shy so back to lurking...

Wow! Ya'll are so nice! Thanks for the prayers for my cat, Levi. And hello to all the Air Force Brats! My dad was in for 35 years and I've moved 47 times in my life. Only been in Little Rock for two years. I'm originally from Alabama. The Crimson Tide didn't do so well against the Razorbacks this weekend. :(

Keep up the good work everyone. The posting of the live feeds has been so much fun. I feel like I know all the HGs! Anyone out there thinking about applying for Big Brother 2?? I think I might give it a whirl!!

Dilligaf -- sending my thoughts too for your cat -- we have four of them (or so I thought) The homeless waif we took in a few months ago was pregnant before we could get her spayed -- I thought she had miscarried about 3 weeks ago -- last night I found four kittens nearly 3 weeks old in the back of a closet.

I travel to Little Rock occasionally to work with a wonderful group at UALR helping children at four grade schools. These are some of the best people I have ever been blessed to know.

OK, why not...

33 years old, male, married five years to my college sweetheart, No kids, one cat... I live in D.C., academic background is engineering, and I work at a large consulting firm. The reason I like BB is that I have always been interested in how different people communicate and interact with one another. I am bi-racial (black and white) so that element of diversity in the house I have found particularly interesting. I am truly glad the show is ending so I can be more productive in other areas of my life :) At the same time, I'm looking forward to BB2.

Cheers and thanks to all BBFC regulars for adding to my experience of watching the show.

I am a 34 yr. old full time mom. I have been married 12 yrs. I have 3 sons, one daughter, ages 5, 7, 9 & 10. We live in Ohio. I have become totally addicted to BB and BBFC. I don't post often, but I have really enjoyed this board, and "getting to know" all of you (especially since I don't know anyone else besides my sister who watches the show!) Silly as it sounds, I will really miss all of these "House Guests" when the show is over. How lame is that! I have definitely wasted A LOT of time on this show this summer, but I admit(to all of you anyway) that I have thoroughly enjoyed it. I also admit...I have been a real "slacker" since I became obsessed with BB. My husband is "patiently" awaiting the final show on Friday!

Next...

I'm 39, mother of 4 lovely daughters, grandmother to a lively 2 year old boy, work at home typing transcripts for TV shows (wish I could do this one!), live with my significant other of 9 years in Miami, FL. I've been watching BB since day one and have loved Eddie right off the bat. I've really enjoyed this board and all the insights and fighting (just like siblings!), although it might have been interesting to see a little more of that kind of excitement on the show!

I think that the final 4 should all be applauded just for managing to stay in the house this long, even though one has to go. Of course, my vote for the winner? EDDIE!

I'm a 46 yr old female married 17 yrs and living in SE Mo. No kids, just pets. DH and I owned a software development corp. for 14 yrs in Florida. I stopped working because of illness before Windows and when the best modem was 14.4K - so I know nothing anymore.

Went from living aboard a sailboat to a house on 23 acres with a river; from fighting nature on the water to fighting it in a vege garden. My dh is thankful BB is almost over so he can be married again, but has managed to read dozens of books he never had time for before! He swears if there's a BB2, we're getting a second phone line.

I live in Ottawa, Canada's capital and am a 49 year old mother of two boys aged 17 & 14. Married 20 years to a wonderful man who thinks I am crazy because of my interest (addiction) to BB. He works shift work and I find myself looking forward to the night shift so I can have the computer all to myself & watch the HGs all night if I want! He is also looking forward to the end of Big Brother so we can get back to a normal life (dinner parties, movies, etc. - all the things I have cancelled since last July).

I have worked for the Federal Government full time (for 30 years!!) as a regulatory drafter in aviation & attend university part time (BA - Linguistics & French). If all goes according to plan I will graduate the same year that I retire from the government & then I can do what I want to do instead of what I have to do.

I have a 12 year old kitty named Snuggles who sleeps patiently beside me in the den when I am on computer at all times of the day & night.

Many thanks to Neil and all of the Live Feed posters who have truly made this summer 2000 very memorable!!

Yikes---who are we?? Pretty damned hard up for some good unscripted entertainment is what I say.
I am married (10 years), 35 years old, full time employed and an internet junkie. Once I get home, feed hubby and kids, clean house, it is 8pm and time to enjoy BB on the tube. Short of that I casually let the AOL viewcams be my background noise while working on the computer from home. I am enjoying BB because it is a neat slice of America. And I sorely miss Cassandra for being the mature and supportive woman she is. I find it reassuring the remaining younger HG's are respectful to the point of awe for her. It shows character in each of them. I personally want Eddie to win. Not because of his handicap, but he has been one of the most real HG, next to Curtis. I give Eddie the edge over Curtis because Eddie has risked more with his openess from the beginning. And oh my goodness is that boy a HOTTIE! ( I am not too old to notice that )

I have already posted to "user profiles" under Why I am on 24/7 but I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for making BBFC the best around! If I decide to give my life over to a BB2 I promise I will get a "real" puter so I can help out with the live feed posts, you guys are great! BB and BBFC have helped get me through a long hot and difficult summer, I thank you and my husband thanks you! PS-you can call me Web

I'm a 38 y/o female, married 16 years with 2 boys 14 & 9. I live in Northeast Florida. This is the first reality show I have watched. I have followed it from the beginning. I think the show is very boring, however I'm very addicted and I'm already dreading Friday when it comes to a close. My family can't wait!!! I think I might need a 12 step program after this. I found this site late in the game and I'm really gonna miss it along with all of you. Have a great day! :)

My turn.. I'm a 36 year old female, I work for a lawyer..I have a wonderful b/f I live with, and 2 boys 9 and 11 1/2 who my ex husband and I share joint custody. I am a hopeless addict, and I now know this because my puter was in the shop this weekend, and I couldn;t wait to come to work this morning (Monday) so I could catch up on the live feeds. My boyfriend Gerard thinks I'm crazy, he won't admit to liking the show, but he sits faithfully beside me while it is on, only talking on commercials.. My kids have also been trained, that when BB comes on, I am not to be interupted unless there is blood oozing from one of them (joking).. I got a taste of withdrawal this past weekend with no puter, but alas I will have it in a few hours, but the real test will come on Friday at 9:00?? Btw.. I AM CANADIAN, and proud of it,,:>

I'm a female... 25 on Wednesday (27th) and love Big Brother! My fave was Brit.. (please no flames) but I love the HGs. There are things I don't like about each of them, but not enough to flame any of them on any board. I live in a tiny town in Ohio, and job-hop from one pointless job to another. I LOVE this website, and since I've found it, I spend all my time at work surfing it, and have sent it to friends. I get together with friends every night that I can to watch BB, and I even post-poned a BD party for myself due to the finale.. hehe

Okay, my turn.. I'm a 34 yr old female. I live just outside of Vancouver, British Columbia. I'm married, with one incredibly spoiled dog (I don't think he even realizes he is a dog LOL) No kids yet, but soon I hope. I'm looking forward to getting control of my life back after BB.
I also need to catch up at work. ps.. does anyone know how I can delete from main computer (at work) everywhere I've been on internet and for how long? I think they're on to me. LOL
GO CURTIS & EDDIE!!!!!!

Thanks Dulci. I have been able to clear history on my own comp at work but am worried that the main one still holds all my history along with all the other computers. Hmmm, I'll go check out the main one and see if that'll work there. I hate being computer incompetent. thanks again :)

Okay, I'll join in. I am male, 31, married no kids (yet). I've been lurking for a month but couldn't resist this topic. I started watching Big Brother from the first day and was totally hooked on it. Since Brittany was banished, I have not found another favorite houseguest but still enjoy the show quite a bit.

Ok my turn, LOL, I am a 32 year old, married, stay at home mother of two :) Harleigh (20 months, a girl, in case you are wondering, LOL), and David ( 5 months, yes we are nuts). I love the show because I find the study of people and their personalities fascinating. I also signed up for BB2, could use the money for kids college, and would love to do something different that I could tell my kids about. I have enjoyed this board very much, many thanks to Neil, the moderators, and the posters, especially those who tirelessly posted the live feeds. Oh and LOL, my name is Vicki :)

Hi Folks,

I'm 32, female, college educated and from the Eastern Townships in Southern Quebec (Canada). I was a customer service representative, but recently quit my job because it felt like the company was slowly eating away at my soul. I've decided to take time off and discover what I really want to do in life.

This Big Brother experience has really been a joy because on nights when insomnia kicks in I can turn on the computer and forget about tossing and turning in bed.

I've enjoyed reading all the discussions and live feeds and can't wait for BB 2 in February. Keep it up guys!!!

I am Suzan, 39 living in Cosmopolis Washington ( a small town of 5,000) I spent the summer watching BB because I was stuck at home recovering from a Gentic Failure. Somedays the only thing I had to look forward to was watching the live feed. I got so addicted that I moved the small fridge in the computer room so I could have my meds close by so I didn't have to leave the live feed if something good was going on(I know I am pitful) But hey it made the Cemo a lil less prevelent in my life. This is the only web site I ever go to other than the BB2000 site.... Thanks for all the posters of the live feeds.... when I would awake I was glad there was somewhere to come and catch up on what I didn't see myself. Thanks to all who post here and all the hard workers behind the scenes.

I'm a 22 yr old stay home mommy to 1 1/2. An 18mth old son and ??? due in 10 weeks. I've been hooked since Day 1. Although I'm not a big poster, I am a HUGE lurker. :) My favs in the house from the start were Cassandra and Curtis so I'm rooting for Curtis to the end!!

My turn. I am an almost 30 year old straight male from Orange County, California that loves all water sports and especially surfing. My first show was the Brit banishment episode as I had spent the summer up to that point traveling throughout the eastern US (you've got to check out The Point Resort near Lake Placid, NY sometime--www.thepointresort.com) as well as several cruises departing from NYC.

Once I got back to sunny California I turned on the tube and caught my first BB episode. I decided to check out AOL keyword big brother and then made my way here. I seldom post but way too often lurk.

I am employed as the VP of Human Resources Consulting firm and have not been as productive as expected since my return from an amazing and unusually long vacation. Too much time spent on BB rather than work, but so far no one has caught on (though my administrative assistant has her suspicions and my secretary is baffled as to how slow the fall has been).

My girlfriend is a teacher and has no clue as why I seem to enjoy BB so much.

Thanks to everyone for a great site and a nice diversion from the regular day-to-day sh*t (as my "buddy" Eddie would say).

Lets see....I'm 35 years old female and I live in a small town in Ohio. The town I live in has lots of Amish. I became addicted to BB right from the beginning. I have 3 wonderful children who think I am absolutely nuts over this show. (they roll their eyes and say to each other "moms on the BB fan club site again")
I'm going to hate to see the show end.
