Curtis - J.Crew cotton/wool neck sweater, off-white.
Brit and Eddie call him a "label wh*re", Curtis says it fits him perfectly. Eddie says there's a book out by that guy who does Monday Night Football, Dennis Miller, a book of 50-something monologues. Miller went off on Clinton once about parenting, Eddie wants more books. Jamie wants to see David Letterman, they're joking about Jamie getting a satellite dish. George wants popcorn, Cassandra agrees. Eddie says he'd have brought a 6-pack of varied beers. 1 Guinness, 1 Bud Light, 1 Shiner Bock from Texas, etc.

Missed a whole bunch of stuff (hope you got it Phantommenace -ed.) Brit says she wants a bunch of 3-D pictures, it's really cool.

Curtis - should have brought old bottle of port, aged 20-30 yrs.
George says Hey BB, I've got the stove on, how much longer?
Eddie (grunting) - I'm always on, turned on.
Now Jamie and Brit in Britspeak saying something.

BB comes on, says it's just a couple more minutes. Now Cassandra, Jamie, Brit, Josh, still waiting for their five.

Brit - scrapbook, camera, different clothes and accessories.

Cass - part of her "ego wall", a scrapbook w/photographs of the stuff she's done.

Brit and Jamie want their cell phones, Cass says just to have and hold, Brit says no with service on of course. Jamie talking about someone in the Netherlands who brought one, they caught her, she was talking under the covers. Cass says if the battery was dying you wouldn't be able to recharge it would you? Now talking about how BB could possibly miss the light, or the sounds. More joking about how to cover up the ringing. Josh says put it on vibrate, Eddie says order pizza. Everyone talking at once. George joking about getting a pilot, Jamie saying they could parachute down (the pizza).

Jamie says again she'd want live feeds of Letterman. Cassandra saying something about Josh revealing his phone number. Jamie says she'd like to have the HGs read a Top Ten list one night, something like that. Cass says 65 days done, 33 to go. Brit says don't you wish we were just starting at this point, we were just walking into the house knowing this much about each other. Eddie: No, I'm getting sick of you Brittany! Brit: Shut up, you love me. Now Eddie starts wrestling Brit on the bed, she's laughing and yelling at him to get off of her. Lots of mic noise. Finally she says she's going for "the package", Curtis says that's what Eddie wants. Curtis says go for the package, let's see what happens. Everyone watching them continue to wrestle, Eddie yelling at her. Now they calm down.

Commenting on the pug being asleep. George says "Cover up the plughole", ppl correct him "pughole". Eddie starts in again, Brit laughing and sort of whining at him to leave her alone. No one's laughing (video not good enough to see expressions). George talking to Pugita, asking if she hears 'em (cameramen or BB).

Eddie now asking Brit to "come back to bed". Josh apparently has a book open, Jamie just sitting there.

HGs still waiting in girls' bedroom, clearly getting bored.

Josh asks if anyone's heard of The Devil's Dictionary by Ambrose Bierce. No one has, not even Curtis. Josh reads off the definition of "woman" (in his quote book) - something about terrifying your husband, Curtis laughs.

Eddie now talking in his version of Britspeak to Pugita, "Pugita you and I were once of the same blood." similar silly stuff.

BB says everyone can come out of the bedroom, asks Jamie to go into the RR. George says "Roast tonight", notes it's Monday after all. George says Jamie you get to roast us all. (Anyone willing to do a feed and take some of the HGs? -ed.)

Josh sings pretty well, "Smile when your heart is aching..." as he goes outside, most of the HGs are apparently going outside (Jamie's in the RR). Brit is by herself in the kitchen on F1+4. Now all cams to outside, Curtis, George, Cass, Josh outside. Someone sings, "When you just smile..." Curtis jokes that they don't even know if their house is waterproof. (Net congestion.) Someone's whistling, I assume it's Eddie, now someone else joins in (Curtis I think). Jamie comes out, says they all have to be ready for something in 15 minutes. She doesn't know what it is.

BB asks Eddie to do something (with his mic I think - net congestion). Cass walked by chicken coop, could hear chickens bawking. Josh by himself outside by the pool on F1+2, Jamie sitting on the couch with paper and pen on F3+4. F1 now switches to Cassandra, then back inside to Curtis walking outside. All cams showing ppl in various parts of house reading pages - presumably jokes. (I'll be covering the roast or whatever in 15 minutes, gotta eat now -ed.)

The challenge was issued by BB via Jamie... she is handing out paper and pencils and informs everyone they need to go to a part of the house alone to finish this in 15 minutes. Everyone quietly working on their papers... perhaps asking them to recollect what everyone's 5 things were? George said "This should be fun" before he settled down to write. No-one else mentioned what it actually was... I'm sure we'll hear about it once they have finished and are back together.
Jamie: I can't believe they are asking us this
Eddie: I like it... did you read the last one? It's ballsy.
Jamie: You do not...
Eddie: I do.. I like it, it's ballsy.

Roll call - George in boys room, Cassandra at card table outside, Curtis in LR sitting on side of chair, Jamie on couch in LR. Everyone's reading pages and also has pens, writing. No talking going on, cams switching constantly. F3 zooms in on Jamie's page, can't read anything. Brit in girls' room with glasses on. Haven't seen Eddie or Josh yet.

What it is, is it's a survey - asking them "Which HG would" for example. Brit just said she's putting herself down for the bad ones. Ed mentioned that on the sheet that it says their answers will be anonymous, he jokes "yeah for today, tomorrow's a different story". Jamie expressing concerns about how it may hurt ppl's feelings.

BB says they should fill out the questionnaires out completely, and they'll remain anonymous always.

Have no idea what this challenge is. Brittany is concentrating hard.

Brit: I'm putting myself down for all the bad ones. I put me down for weakest.

(I'm guessing they have to put down what hg fits the words on the paper)


Ja and Brit talking about only turning in one page.

BB comes on and fusses at them, says not to share answers with anyone, something else.

Ja: It's only gonna hurt people's feelings, once we reveal the last page.

Josh: that's the point. It's the only reason.

Eddie is done.

Net congestion,

Eddie: Most two-faced
Jamie: This is stupid
Jamie: All they are going to do is read this and it's going to hurt people's feelings.
Eddie: You must answer every category.
Eddie: At no time will you be asked to reveal your answers, today. Haha.. tomorrow is another day in the BB house.
Jamie: You were voted as the most... and hurt feelings.
Cass: That's exactly what they'll do.. I'll go in there later and tell them.
Brit: Did you put names down for everything?
Cass: No
Brit: I'm putting myself down for the ones I don't like. I put myself down for weakest, wishy-washy.
Jamie: That's terrible asking for two-faced. I'm in for throwing them in the BBQ.
Curtis: I'm in
Jamie: It's not productice for the house hurting people's feelings.
Brit: I'll burn them in the BBQ
Jamie: Let's just fill in one
BB: It's forbidden to discuss it with each other, fill it out completely and do not discuss it
Jamie: (to BB) what if we don't feel it's productive?
George: Well, there were some loaded ones in that one!
BB: HG's, your specific answers will never be revealled.
Jamie: The answers will never be revealved?
BB: your SPECIFIC answer won't be
Jamie: What are they going to do if I put these in the BBQ
George: We're not going to stop you!
George: Well.. I got another missile launched at me today.. If I don't get it from above, I get it from the side.
Jamie has gone to the RR with all the papers.
Brit: That was stupid
George: I would agree
Brit: Is Jamie in the Red room? This is stupid.. why would they want to do this?

Quick update...Jamie is having a hissy fit over having to fill out the last page of the questionnaire they were given. BB just yelled at her and i'm not sure who else for discussing their answers. Jamie wants to go to the RR b/c she does not think it's right to ask the questions they did..something like who is the most 2 faced HG. Josh and everyone else is laughing and telling Jamie that BB knows it's stupid..that is why they are doing it. Jamie doesn't want to fill it out. Everyone else seems to be ok with it and having a good time.

Jamie goes off on how BB is gonna just reviel the last page of the answers to the public and hurt people...(by editing it so it tooks a certain way)
HG can not tell each other their answers for the paper.
Jamie;What are they gonna do if I put this in the barb-b-q?
Geo;They're not gonna stop you
Looks like most have their papers turned in,George is cooking now,asking Curtis about spices.
Brit;Do you wanna turn em in,Eddie?I think it's stupid.
Jamie suggests the barbe-q to her...

This is great. BB voice just came on saying that if anyone leaves spaces blank they will lose 50 percent of their grocery money for the rest of the time!! Eddie just called everyone pusses and said there was no way he was gonna starve b/c of those pusses!!

Filling in a little bit - Jamie had concerns that the answers would be told to the HGs on the live show - Eddie guessed that BB probably had footage ready, so that whoever was "elected" for a given question, they'd have footage for that person doing something that represents that question.

F7 shows them all around the kitchen, and very little talking.

Josh is telling everyone not to let the answers change the way you act. "Dont be a puppet". Jamie is just waiting to turn in all the papers, except for Cassandra's. RR told her to wait a moment. Curtis said something about resolving the Cassandra issue, not sure but Cass is waiting to take hers in herself. Dont know if she talked to the RR already about this yet. Britt is not talking at all.

btw, Eddie actually used the word putz before.

Very very quiet now....(ed. BB has upped the tension again.)

Eddie and Cassandra are outside, I'm moving to them...

F3
Eddie saying that they could have thrown one vote one way and one vote the other way, and they could've had just a two-way race. He found himself thinking what would this person do, what would this person do, part of him says what if he's this and friendship is this, and friendship is that. (Basically I think he's rationalizing his nom rationale -ed.)

Cassandra says over the last 1 1/2 weeks they've made great strides in realizing that it's just part of the game, and you have to have sportsmanship in staying close to ppl you care about, but also voting stuff. You have to think how far you can go, obviously everyone's competitive, and wants to be there that last week, so you just have to think how you're going to do that w/o destroying relationships and alienating ppl.

Eddie says he's not worried about being considered two-faced, if he didn't have to nom ppl he wouldn't, there's a fine line btwn. yeah you've done it in a respectful way and you're still friends, but yet you've done it. What it comes down to, bottom line is, in the end, he's gotta say he's got friends, and he's open for more, but he doesn't need any more.

F3 (sorry for long post, fast convo)
Plane goes overhead, Eddie saying everybody has a plan, and he decides what order he's going to vote ppl. He's glad he decided early on, but he wasn't wise in the order he's chosen. It's not even who's a threat to his existence, b/c he's not going to vote for ppl who vote for him.

Cass says it's not like that. Eddie doesn't think so either. Let's say they played RR noms and he knew the ppl who nom'd him. The next week, he might want to nom that person but that might not be the wisest decision. They were smart in giving them the AOL polls, b/c now they're looking at that too.

Cass says the challenge is how to keep head and heart together, to show sportsmanship and have a good time. Eddie says he doesn't want to walk out saying he shoulda done this, shoulda done that. He doesn't want to say it wasn't a wise decision to nom someone at one point. Ppl aren't thrown out by each other they're thrown out by the public, but he wants to make a wise decision. $500k, not a lot of money, but it's more than he walked in. Eddie runs out of steam, doesn't know what he's trying to say. What would benefit him more in life is building strong friendships, they're worth more to him than $500k.

Cass says over the past 10 days the improvements they've made in the house, they're arriving at the point where ppl don't see being nom'd as a personal affront. There's only six ppl other than you, you're close to all of them, so in the final analysis ppl are going to get nom'd.

Eddie says here's your situation, you're a career woman, wish you the best of luck, I look at myself, I'm just going to be getting out of college, I've got my whole life ahead of me. You're established, you're set on your path, same thing as George, he's in the same boat. I'm looking at it like I'm younger, I have the opportunity to do whatever we want. And that plays a factor. I don't know, sh*t I don't know. I don't know. Wish I'd brought more books.

Cass tells him to finish his thought. Eddie: what i'm trying to get at, is I see ppl in here who're going to be doing phenomenally well after they walk out the door. What it comes down to is, who's not doing phenomenally well and has a shot at the green. In the beginning it was Jordan and Mega, then it was like what am I going to do now. Eddie now talking about Vote George Save Brit.

(Realplayer just died on me, hope someone else is covering...)

Eddie's talking about how he's going to hold off on nominating George and Cass until the end. However, even though he thinks Britt is a doll, she's got the most popular vote and now she's his competition and he's got to get her out of here.

Eddie says he's become close to ppl here, he's become closer to Cass. Cass says you have to watch that, b/c ppl intend to stay close to each other after the house, she thinks this group of ppl may really stick together. I don't think you want to be in a position where stuff is coming up later -- George says 2 minutes to dinner -- Cass continues, where it becomes an issue. But the point is, only 7 ppl left, you only have 2 noms, but then again, they may not leave the house and continue to be an obstacle.

Eddie says CBS has already decided who they want to win, Cass agrees. Eddie thinks it's not a big deal, but he doesn't like not having an influence on the outcome of things that have to do with his life. He has no problem if somebody figures out (something about school, missed it). Eddie says he's thinking, at the end when he walks down his sidewalk, he'll be back w/his family and that's great, but at the same time he's in here w/a family, and he hopes he didn't let either family down. Like with CBS, he hopes he hasn't let them down. I feel bad for the dudes who casted me thinking I wasn't an @$$hole but I am. Cass says you really think that? What do you think they thought you were? Eddie says I don't know, a nice guy or something.

Cass says so what you're saying is, your family expects you to be a competitor until the end, and do your best to walk out of here to be a winner. Eddie pauses, and nods, yeah, I think so. Cass says and that's stressing you. Eddie agrees, it's a part of me, and yet not as much as I thought it was. I can see my mom, first of all she sleeps well at night, knowing I'm trapped in here, all she has to worry about is her brother. Another part of her sleeps well enough knowing that in 33 days, I might be getting enough money that she doesn't have to worry about it. Oh man - his maternal grandma's got something - I feel really guilty writing this down, sorry not going to write more in this vein.

Eddie says the plane freaked George out---Hey--Chicken Man hasn't hurt anyone-we love him-Cassandra you want to take care of her Mom---you guys are set in your life and won't have the options the younger ones have/ Eddie says he won't vote for either of them in future nominations....Britt is a doll and I love her---but she'll have go if he is ever gonna get near the prize. The last thing I want to do is to hurt anyone in this house---all of you are my friends.

Cass---we all have to nominate somebody. Eddie thinks CBS has already decided who is going to win--and he has no problem with it---doesn't like not having any control on it---things aren't yet getting to him here---but he's starting thinking---and the worst thing Eddie can do is letting somebody down---his outside family and now his inside family. Maybe he has let the casting department down---not who they thought he was.
Cass asks if his family expects him to leave the house a winner---sigh from Eddie---Yes--I think so/ his Mom is probably sleeping well cause she doesn't have to worry about Eddie getting in bar fights cause he is locked in the house---he gets bad vibes about his Father thinking something bad has happened--and it wigs him out. All Eddie wants is to pay off his parents house--put his brother through college---and when others sit there and say "I'm just here for the experience"---what am I!! the Grinch--I want to win .. Cass tells him to stop hitting himself over the head just because the money is important--and he shouldn't berate people only talking about wanting the experieice---as that is just as valid.

Continuing, so Eddie's mom sleeps well at night knowing there's a 1 in 7, 1 in 6 chance that they don't have to worry about money. He only needs $85k for the house, he doesn't need it. he hears ppl b*tching about getting $350 a week and thinks, he'd be happy making that much. He hears ppl saying all I want is a loving family, he thinks what, you wanna take my money? But then he feels like a grinch for thinking that.

Cass says don't feel with a grinch, as much as ppl say they want a new experience etc., they do want the money, they just don't express it. But just b/c you need the money and you know you want to win, doesn't make you a bad person, just as long as you don't hit everyone over the head w/that fact. Ppl know you need the money, but don't tell them you're taking the money out of my hands, b/c they have a right to want to have a new experience and whatever. Eddie agrees it's wrong but he can't help thinking that way.

Cass says Ed'll probably make it, then it's about not trying to do any harm. Eddie says like all these ppl getting all upset about this stuff, he's heard all the words used at times, so it's just a matter of putting it down in writing.

Cass points out Ed has a thicker skin than others, you're much more upfront than other ppl in the house, you'd say to someone I think you're lazy or whatever, if you have an issue you'd come up to them and say it. Whereas others might try to just work thru the issue and whatever. It's just ppl trying to avoid unnecessarily hurting each other. And also ppl getting anxious about the live shows b/c you never know what's going to happen.

(first time posting)...
Cas and Ed still talking by the pool.
Ed talking about his family and how he feels being inside. Has bad vibes about his father, maybe a car wreck.
Also how his mom needs the money if he wins to pay medical bills.

Cass: Reasurring Ed that ppl look at him as he is playing the game. You need the money and you need to win...ppl know your motivations, that it is important for you to look at others and say don't take the money out of my hand.

Ed: I know that is the wrong way to think, but I know it's wrong. (audio soft)... more talking.

Cass talking. Ed: ppl getting banged up about that thing tonight and the RR things...if you can't handle that. Putting it in writting, you dont' have the balls to say it? to write it?

Cass: you know you say things to ppl than most are....I know you care about these ppl and you could go right up to them and confront them.
(paraphrasing here some long conversation)
Theres been enuf hurt in the house to last...you never know what's going to happen.

Ed: your right so far...if walk I walk..I want to make the most of this. IT's not a life experience. I see me doing bigger things than this. ...talking about olympics....bottom line I want to go thru this and have a good time...awww shi* I don't even know.

Cass: I know...

Ed: this weekend my brain will ....

Cass: you've been thiking a lot lately.

Ed:Agreeing...and laughing...


Ed: I try to be honest.

Brit talking about going up north and watching the leaves change
George glad they don't have to do a roast
They are talking about always doing roasts on Mondays, but not this one...Jamie saying that Julie Chen probably won't say anything about the forms on the live show b/c it will make BB look bad that they forced them to fill out the forms. Curtis saying the forms are anonymous and that they couln't figure out who wrote what...Cass and Ed still outside talking..

It's going to be kinda weird saying Hi I'm Eddie...and knowing they don't like me.

Cass: Why don't you think they like you?
7 ppl here 5 nights a week...you don't know who's voting or what they think...don't even go there.
I haven't even been looking at it that way...

Eddie says it's not a life experience to him, like to George it's the biggest thing that ever happened to him. He sees himself doing bigger things than this, like he was invited to try out for the 2000 Olympics, and he might go to 2002 Salt Lake City or 2004 Greece. I wanna have a good time doing this, and oh sh*t I dunno. What I said five minutes ago doesn't apply to what I'm saying now. F*cking RR's gonna have a field day with me. Other than that, I dunno things are pretty good!

Cass says so you've been thinking a lot lately. Eddie says yeah. Eddie says they broke his balls before asking what his reason was, and he said I don't have a reason I just have to do it. They called him a liar asking for his reason, he said nah I've got no reason. I'll have more of an explanation next time I guess. They asked me today about how the pug was doing, I said oh it's doing good, then they asked have you learned anything about the HGs recently, I said after 55 days there's nothing left to learn, only when it comes to noms how ppl are going to deal. Like they learned early on who was going to step up w/challenges, now the main thing is how ppl deal w/getting nominated, this week doesn't really count b/c everyone's doing it except Jamie. When it's one on one, and you think a majority of the ppl nom'd me, then that's real pressure. (missed a bit) When I came in I thought keep a tough skin, keep it in, and walk out one of the final three. Now I'm thinking I'm going to walk out and say most of America doesn't like me.

Cass says what do you mean America doesn't like you? There's only 7 ppl on a show five nights a week, that's gotta have some entertainment value, so I wouldn't even go there, b/c you don't know who's voting. It could be ppl who just don't relate to you, they don't dislike you they just don't relate. If I have to go on Thurs. I'll just say whatever.

Eddie says I dunno but fourth place is just going to s*ck. Coming out w/no money, and having to go to school. Convo now ends, Cass heads inside.

(ed: Please don't get rid of Cass, she's the only one Eddie opens up to!)
