no posts in a while... Eddie is catchin some rays out by the pool.

George, Jamie, Curtis, Josh in the kitchen.. eating cereal. Not much talk..Gonna work on training the dog after breakfast. Not sure where Cass is.. not on any of the cams.

Jamie gonna dye G's hair green today she says. Talking about sleeping all day.. going to bed at 7pm.. and laughing about BB having to tell them they have to stay up longer.

George looking at recipes.. one for Mock Turkey something.. asks how do you mock a turkey. Curt: Point your finger at it and laugh. Jam: Show it one of G's SuperChickens.

That's about all the excitement I can handle for a while.

F1 and F2 eddie laying by the pool

F3 and F4 in kitchen watching all other HGs, Cass and Curtis at sink area, Cass talking about checking the bread.
Curtis talking sweet talk to Chiquita. Not much talking.
Jamie mentions to George the moment he showed the "butt bread" for his talent competition, and how they all laughed cause it was funny and gross. George is just giggling at himself. They are all laughing at him.

George is talking about how great an opportunity this is to be on the show. George is fixing to train the dog, and getting tips from Josh on how to train her. George is now sweet talking the dog, and talking about how the dog looks huge sometimes, "our fat little dog", curtis says.

Everyone is sitting around the table (except Eddie). Cass is washing the dishes I think (can hear water). The overall mood seems much better today. They've actually maintained a constant conversation for a while. They are laughing, joking around. Ofcourse, as soon as I wrote that there's complete silence :)
Jamie starts laughing, and George asks her why. She's laughing at the jock strap handle at the beauty pageant? George is laughing. Talk of "butt bread". George if he was watching the show, and someone made that bread, he'd make it at home. Cass thinks it was hilarious. Curtis says "What crazed, crazed maniac would make butt bread... Oh, me" (talking as if he's George).
George says he's had a "really, really good time". Has been able to get away and do some "wild and crazy stuff"... would have never had the opportunity to do anything like this if not for the show.

Noboby has posted in a while so I will add a little. George went outside to train the pug, but he got frustrated really quickly. He came back inside and everyone is encouraging him and telling him that it will take a little while to train the dog. They all discussed that they can live off the food allowance if they lose, b/c they have this week. Right at this moment they are talking about lunch or supper. Eddie is playing with the dog in the floor.

Curtis is dangling feet in pool. Bad angle, but I think Jamie is doing laundry, can hear Cass and George talking. Yeah, George and Cass are sitting outside.

My feed is horrible, lost sound sound.

Sound back, barely any talking. Jamie and Curtis talking on some other feed. feed.

Feed gone.

George is calling Jamie Hollywood, I think she's standing in two buckets washing the clothes with her feet. (???-ED)

Jamie says she feels like Lucy dancing in grapes.

This is boring and I can't find Eddie or Josh.

(It is really amazing how quiet it is without Brittany. And boring.)

1:05 BB time (approx)

Eddie is making barking and growling noises to Pugita outside and George appears.
Eddie to George: "Chicken Maaaan..."
George tells him they are going to eat outside.

Jamie talks about something in the storage room.

Jamie explaining something to Cass about the drawstring on her shorts getting caught in something.

Eddie: "Course they wont show that part on TV... they'll just say "Eddie undone my shorts.."

Cassandra is lying out in the sun on the grass near the pool.

George calls out to her and comments to the others, in a teasing tone, "Oh she will have so much color."

[I just updated my version of Real Player so my sound quality is much better and I am positive the words I quoted are what was said.]

1:20 PM BB time
Sitting around the table outside, finishing lunch.
Jamie has been talking about beauty pageants.. she ends with "we have all had an exciting year"
George responds.
"Who would think I would be sitting in the sun in California... on a TV show... getting things shot at us... seeing my name in the sky."

A few minutes ago,Curt was trying to make Chiquita come, beckoning with treat. She didn't.

Cass said they progress had been made since Curt got pug to sit and she's better at waiting. Now, they're sitting around talking. Mill Vanilli came up. Now they're talking about Chiquita, who Curtis calls lazy and stubborn.

Geo is asleep in the Cave, lights and shoes on. No sign of Eddie or Josh or Jamie.

That is it. I'll keep an eye out for anything that is not mund numbing.

Correction: I meant mind numbing, obviously.

Okay, George is up and wandering around. Just left Bathroom. In kitchen, washing hands. Has gone outside to see Cass and Curt. I think they've all gone away from the table, trying to find them. They've all gone inside. Eddie up. (Yay!-ED) Following Eddie. He's in the cave. Lying on bed, reading. Alone. Is that where he's been all along? I love him, but have no interest in watching him read. Josh must be in girls room or redrum. Jamie?

Switching feeds.

George is going to make something. A kite? For chiquita? I think I heard that wrong. Cass is warning George not to get frustrated if she won't do whatever he wants her to.

George just said he is going to make a kite...(now what's he up to?)

He says "its something to remind us of freedom" (yeah right-ed) oh.. he comments: "If he had something to write with he would write their names on it. but.. our writing days are pretty bleak" Cass says he'll think of something.

Cass & Curtis talking about how long its been.. nine weeks is a long time to live on top of each other (Curtis's words)
CAss: I thought Brit and KAren would be here till the end.

Looks like they are wearing poor little Pugita out.

They hear..."good afternoon ladies and gentlemen".. someting going on nearby.. they heard gospel music earlier.

Talking about Steve Harvey (black comedian. Cass doesn't like him. Says she doesn't get a chance to hang out in Harlem anymore. Too far. Talking about the Black circus.. takes her niece to it.

Now hear loud Gospel Rap... but can't make out words. (I can hear it even)

1:50 PM - 2:20 BB time (approx)
F1
Cassandra and Curtis are sitting at table outside in casual conversation about various black performers including Vanessa Williams, Viliminili <sp>. Cass mentions the very long hair she had when she was younger.Cass says something about Vannessa Williams being knock kneed.
Talking about black Miss America.

F3
George is in the at the kitchen sink. Eddie goes by.
George to Eddie: "When you go down by the beach Eddie, buy me a hotdog and beer... that sounds good"

George goes into w/c. Waterfall sound.
George leaves w/c and returns to kitchen. George running water at kitchen sink.

Camera follows George outside. View of George from the kitchen window, then Cass and Curtis get up from outside table and come into kitchen.

Eddie passes by.

Curtis running water at sink ... he says to George, "thanks for lunch George." George replies, "oh don't worry about it."

Camera moves outside to Curtis and Cass sitting at table talking.

George moving around near them. Camera is on George.

Zoom in on George pacing back and forth... with arms folded.
All of a sudden George bursts out, "think im going to do it!"

CASS: "What George?"

GEORGE: I'm going to make a kite.

George goes inside.

Curtis says to Cass, "I was thinking about making a sign for my mom."

CASS: What would you use?
CURTIS: Oh I dunno. I was thinking about the camoflage material.

George comes back outside with large piece of gold fabric, looks like a sheet.

George is talking about his plans for kite, wind direction...

GEORGE: By golly i think it will work. I have nothing to write with though or I would write all our names on it. The writing days are over.

CASS: Oh you will find something George.

George goes back inside.

Cass and Curtis carry on small talk punctuated by silences.

Cass: I thought Karen and Brittnay would be here to the last sec..

George back.. burst of really loud laugh from him. (I do not know what he is laughing about)

George says, "She looks so funny, she is worn out." (I think he was looking at Chiquita sleeping, referring to her morning training session)

Cameras back on Cass and Curtis, George has gone back inside.

George back..
GEORGE: "Oh that dog is hilarious, man. Sit.... Sit"

George sits down at at table and appears to be working with the yellow fabric.

Cass and Curtis continue talking with George joining in occasionally.

Curtis & Cass talking outside. Curtis wonders if Karen did not make a plea to be banished if the public would have banished her anyway (ed. sounds like he thinks so, but only my opinion). Maybe Brit was voted out because of "assoication to Karen". Cass comments she was very shocked at the way Karen reacted to nomination so early in the game, especially because she was so competitive. She hopes BB showed how funny Britt really was.
Cass says that the amount of chores are heavy now because there is so little people.

Eddie is yelling at the dog "Pugita, over the bar! OVER! OVER! I WILL NOT let you fail! I'm talking to YOU! You're GARBAGE!" He's saying this very comically, and everyone is laughing. The dog is looking at him as if he's insane. She's not moving "I command to by the power vested in me by BB to go over the PVC piping!" he says. Curtis says he no longer feels bad about his training. Now Eddie is baby talking the dog, and it's still not moving. He gives up, goes to get a big can of food to try again. Curtis says "Fagita, you stupid pug".

Ca:Its cool. we can sit in our yard and hear music.
Cu: it would be cool to sing to a stadium full of people. Cass asked what kind (audio's bad..not sure)R&B more my style.. in between real music and the kind I like to hear. (I think that's what he said)

Cu: so you thought Karen & Brit would be hear
Ca: she's so competitive and all.. surprised she broke down so soon
Cu: wonder if she would have been banished if she hadn't said she wanted to go.
Ca: don't know. Thgouth Brit would be here till final 6 at least
Cu; maybe guilt by association. Think she was okay with Josh after K left.
Ca: hope public sees how funny she was
Cu; Surprised its been so calm.. they usually have challenges and discussions all the time.
Ca: I think we've said we needed it. Emotionally draining. Meal effort is massive with fewer people ... falls on same people all the time.
Outside chores.. same people have to do same things all the time

Eddie comes out for training session with Pugita.
G: good luck, Edman
Curt: I want a front row seat for this one
Pug goes barking at camera (camera guys could screw up this challenge intentionally, it seems)
Pug is tired..

Cu: Look how much "extra dog" there is here. (LOL)

Ed: Sit pugita.. Sit. Good Girl.. Good Girl.. yes she is.

now Pug doesn't move..

ed: She's just laying there

This is TOO funny.. can't keep up with it.. He's yelling out commands.. and dog just lies there..
Pugita.. over the bar...
I command you by the power vested in me by BB.. Come to me Pugita... over the PVC pipe... no this is not limbo.. don't go under the bar. No .. this is not time to sit.. over the bar.. over the bar.. food.. here... right there pugita.. what are you going to do about it? you have to go over the bar to get it.. (Sits there)

Just sit there then Pugita... learn your lesson..
(evidently pug can't get out.. barricaded so only way out is over the bar)
Cu: Pugita.. you stupid pug

Ed get toy.. oops.. somehow pug got out.. walks away..

Curtis laughing..Edding running after Pug.

FOOD .. FOOOOD Pugita... OVER...OVER.. squeak sqeak (toy).. over Pugita over... rrrrrrr.. rrrrrr.. rrrrrrr.. look at me I'm a camera .. pretend you want to get me.. (sits there looking at him) Now trying to crawl under... You LameA$$. NO Go Over the BAr PUgita. Get up...no.. get up. no... she's licking me...Don't lay down, get up..Wake up! Get off your Back! Don't eat the grass. Stand up, come'on.

(oh well.. you get the idea.. it IS funny though)

Watching Cass and George clean the windows, then BB tells them how to clean the windows and tells them that a specific window has streaks and asks them to redo the window. Hear Curt and Ed in the Lr also. Eddie is looking for the "fu**ing spatula"! ....

Curt asked what Cass was using to clean with and Cass says one of Karen's shirts, apparently karen had cut up one of her shirts to use to clean with. Someone is coooking, it appears to be Eddie in the kitchen. Ed looking for knives and George telling them where they are.

(Ed. Sorry about the double post. It froze up on me, and I finally clicked on Live Feeds to get out.)
HG's are now playing croquet. Very quiet game. Not much talking. Curtis and Cass are talking, but I can't hear it.They can hear N'Sync now in the background..bye, bye, bye I think. Now they say it's karioke (sp?). saying the song is way too high for the guys singing it. George just got called to RR. I'm gone..

Everybody is back in the yard now. Cass is sitting by the door to the house. They are discussing the way to play the game, etc. How to get someone out, etc. George is now letting Jamie "cheat" since it's her first game. Eddie missed his shot. Jamie commented on how short the mallets are. Now they are joking about that. Everyone but Cass is playing. (I'm going now for real... Have some paint to watch dry..LOL)

Eddie is outside with Chiquita. It looks like he is going to try to teach her to jump over a low bar. Eddie is speaking to Chiquita in a stern voice.

EDDIE: I will not let you fail.
Hey I'm talking to you.
Your're gawbage.. you're gawbage!

This is the way out Pugita (patting ground on other side of bar)
Over Pugita, over Pugita

(In loud booming voice)
By the power of Big Brother, I command you; Over Pugita, Over

(back to firm voice)
No! Do not do limbo.. over Pugita... not under.
No! This is not the time to sit Pugita.

over over
oh oh
right HERE Pugita

(during most of this, Cass and Curtis are laughing in background, as was I! It is pretty funny and cute.)

Eddie gets up. I think Cass asks him if he is giving up or something similar.

EDDIE: No, no... im going to go get a big can of food and wave it in front of her.

Eddie goes in house and then comes back.
Eddie sits on grass by the bar and tries to entice Pugita to come to him.

EDDIE: ok pugita... over the bar.
look what I have for you.
Pugita runs away. Eddie chases after her on his hands.

Eddie catches Pugita and carries her back to bar and tries to entice her with the food again.

EDDIE: over pugita... fooood.. over pugita...

Eddie is saying "over" and making noises trying to get Chiquita to jump over the bar.
Now Eddie is using more pleading tones.
EDDIE: come on Pugita... over. over Pugita.

Eddie continues to sit and plead with Pugita.
Pugita continues to sit and stare at him.

Now, she is trying to crawl under the bar.

Eddie with a sterner voice now, "I will not let you fail!
Over Pugita! No, no... don't crawl under... get up, get up.. dont lay down up... get up!"

Eddie says get up several more times sounding a little exasperated.

EDDIE: No... don't fall asleep... get up!

Pugita closes her eyes.

EDDIE: wake up Pugita!

Chiquita gets up and is sniffing the grass.

EDDIE: No... dont eat the grass.

Eddie brings her over to the bar and keeps telling the dog, "Get up, get up"

Can and Curtis watching in background... Curtis saying to Cass, "Eddie was going to come out here and have it all under control.." He chuckles. Cass says, (referring to the dog) "she's having a blast."

Back to Eddie and Chiquita.

EDDIE: No! There is serious work that needs to be done
Get your ass up.
Don't eat the grass. I said your ass not grass.

Eddie is sitting and lets his tongue hang out and starts panting.
Now his voice is back to firm and stern.

EDDIE: You will not fail... I will not let you.
Now what are you going to do smart ass?
No.. thats cheating.. (she went around the bar)
Food, Pugita
(He is trying to bribe her now; holding out food and then a squeaky toy)

Pugita is up on her hind legs with front paws on bar. She hops over.

EDDIE: Good girl Pugita!
Thats number one. (there are 6 bars)
Up and over now... no! get up and over.

Chiquita lies down close to the red bucket.

EDDIE: Get out of that shade. Up up up... enough.. up.
Look I'm not enjoying this anymore then you are..
Come on... up Pugita..

(Eddie uses the toy to entice her)

No, I am not going to drop it. You gotta work for it.
(hey hey hey. tut tut tut sounds. sweeter, coaxing voice)... come on Pugita, over here. (holding his hands above bar)
No i have nothing in this hand..
Why are you going under? There were no commands about going under.

Close up of Chiquita licking Eddie's fingers.

Eddie goes from using the stern voice to a coaxing voice... "up up
come on, come on."

George asks Eddie something about how to make the kite. Eddie tells him something about tying strings then goes back to training Pugita.

EDDIE: Good girl, good girl.

CURTIS: Did she do it?

EDDIE: One out of two ain't bad.
Hey wrong way, wrong way... but thats good cause I need you to jump that one too.

CURTIS: Hey I think this is going to work.
CAS: (affirmative murmur)

Eddie is being very encouraging and praising Chiquita now. He keeps saying, "Good girl, good girl," over and over and petting and stroking her.

He says, "I've got something for you and gives her a treat.

Eddie says to Cass, "You know I think honestly if I picked her up and dropped her on the bar she wouldn't jump down."
Cass replies, "yeah she wouldn't put her feet down."

Pugita back to looking uninterested... she is sniffing for more treats. She walks away.
Eddie is sitting on the grass trying to coax her back.
She goes to Eddie.
He is stroking and petting her back

Eddie says, "good girl Pugita, good girl, over and over again.

Lesson continues...

EDDIE: You just did it.. now come on
Chiquita hops over.

EDDIE: Good girl. Good girl... yes!
Pugita over... over Pugita
(Eddies keeps saying "Over Pugita and good girl countless times.)
Come on.. it's almost time for your break

Curtis says to Eddie, "Almost half way there."

EDDIE: Pugita look... I got more food here.
I know you're hungry... of course you are hungry.
Pugita... oh yes... look.
No lazy dog. No... over.

Eddie keeps pointing where he wants her to go and when she goes around instead of over he puts her back. Chiquita hops over and Eddie praises her. She hops back. In an affectionate voice Eddies speaks to the pug, "Yes she's a good girl" and gives her a treat.

Close up of pugita sniffing grass.

EDDIE: One more Pugita and then you can go... come on
Take all this away (toys) and she will do it.
Over Pugita.
(She hops over)
OK, good girl... you can go now.

Curtis congratulates Eddie.

EDDIE: Just a little at a time ya know. She'll do it.

CURTIS: Watching that made me tired.

Eddie getting up from grass and camera showing Chiquita running around the yard.

BB voice comes on.
