"chowfpc
jamie is about as peeved as i've seen her - complete
Tue Sep 12 15:32:06 2000


jamie heads to bathroom
curtis/josh/eddie head to the yard

curtis talks about how he can't pee cause jamie beat him to the toilet and is now 'letting some fish
swim upstream'
boys yammering about euphimisms about poo and erections again...really funny involving jamie
but too crude to repeat here

jamie overhears somehow from the bathroom hall, through the wall, and asks what the boys are
talking about
curtis heads in to the toilet but jamie confronts him before he can go pee

jamie raises the issue of fewer men than women...something about the croquet game last night
and how she took offense with some comments the men made
jamie mentions how the boys didn't tell her what they were doing looking at her tanning
yesterday from inside the house
curtis plays it off as them joking about her shoes
jamie: that's it??
curtis: yeah
jamie: there wasn't more??

curtis: i think your [overly] sensitive
jamie: i don't want to discuss it to make it a story line
curtis: in real life i know you would want to talk to me
jamie: it's a respect thing
curtis: i'm sorry, maybe it's b/c you haven't lived with guys...isn't it clear to you that this [jamie's
reaction] surprises me?
jamie keeps cutting curtis short
curtis: my quick reaction -- before you cut me off each time -- is that there's a gender issue
here...we've had toilet run-ins before
curtis: it's more like guys teasing girls in the school yard here [playful]...like with brit
jamie: to be honest with you, this isn't something i would have expected...this type of
behavior...ppl treating each other like 12yr olds
jamie: just something i wanted to talk to you about...give you my insights
curtis: alright
jamie: i want you to keep it to yourself...not to make an issue of it
curtis: you're using the word 'insight' to suggest that you're right and i'm wrong...
jamie interrupts [this is bordering on argument now]: nooo, nooo, that's not it
curtis: tell me in 3 wks i guess
curtis: i've decided to treat this as normal life in here now...without regard to the cameras and
such
jamie: yeah, me too [ed: i'm biting my tongue here]
curtis: i can understand how you don't want to talk about things here with the cameras
jamie: i'm upset that i even brought it up...you don't understand what i'm saying
curtis: i find it frustrating how we can't talk it out now

jamie asks why curtis talks about so-and-so [curtis' girl]
curtis: i have...haven't i?
jamie: maybe with brit

jamie: i hope this doesn't air [on the tv show]
curtis: if i'm gone tomorrow it won't
conversation breaks up at the bathroom...jamie checks the mirrors for cameras

[ed: curtis may be seeing a new side of jamie]

and further (sorry but I can't type fast enough to do it myself and I don't want you to miss it)

Cass resents being called 'Mama Cassandra'
Tue Sep 12 15:38:43 2000


Cass and Jamie are having a serious convo about the sexism in the house, calling the
guys "neanderthals" who are insensitive to the women's feelings, etc.

Cass says the guys can't conceive of her as being a single woman who just is as fun as them --
they see all women as either a girlfriend or a mother figure.cass: why do they have to call me mama cassandra? im not their mother

She says the guys have been making a serious effort to bond over the last 4 days and she doesn't
like being left out. OTOH, she's not going to play guy games like football.

and further
amie talking to cass in the kitchen

jamie: have you ever seen the view?
cass: no im never home to see that show?
jamie: yeah they discuss alot of issues just like this one (the boys vs girls discussion)
cass: mmm hmmm

they continue to talk a little bit more about The View

jamie: when they were having auditions i wanted to be on it soooo bad. kinda like applying to
big brother
cass: well now im sure you could be able to do that
George and Josh see the importance of
a balance (male to female) in the house. This is what Jamie said to Cassandra.

Now Jamie says thank God for the American public. There's part of me that has faith in the
public, but I have faith that there is some kind of conspiracy to _______.

Jamie: What is interesting to me is that CBS allowed the option to disclose the Rockford vote
thing on the news. Jamie said that it was probably to cause controversy to get more money.

(sorry not finding a flow that I can keep up with here)"

Also Cass went on to say that 3 or 4 times a day things are done or said that she could get mad over but she just won't Sorry i can't type fast enough to give you all this myself

Jamie and Curtis were in the bathroom. J was trying explain how the guys' crude comments were making her uncomfortable. (It wasn't clear *which* comments, but in the last half hour, Curtis had screamed "Jamie was sending a log fish upstream, so I couldn't pee!" and Eddie retold the story about his and Curtis' "hard-ons" and Jamie's effect on them).

Curtis told her she needed to be more real and act like herself rather than worrying about her image. She countered that she was 100% real and that that's what she showed. Curtis tried to talk with her and make her feel better, but she didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Jamie went to the kitchen and is discussing it with Cass. Cass agrees that it was good for J to confront Curtis because the guys need to learn respect. Cass says the guys have been bonding a lot lately and alienating both of the women. Cass doesn't like that they call her "Mama Cass" because she's not a mother. She says it's not important enough to bring up with them.

I loved how she said "They have girlfriends, sisters, mothers, and future wives to educate them on that stuff. It's not my job to teach them how to behave."

Banner just went over for cass. It said Cass we love you bigbrotherwatchers@egroups.com

Cass was very pleased but not as demonstrative as Jamie who was really extremely pleased for Cass. Cass is still talking about how nice it is. She said "I was just complaining that my family don't have the nmoney. This is soooo nice."

Everyone is very pleased about the positive banners that have been flying.

The guys are joking with her now. Eddie calls her Miss Popular because his came from his family. Cass went in to check her cooking then said i am going to go back out and just wave to them. She is obviously really pleased about this!!!!!

Thumbs up cassandra from the chicken man, says George.

Everyone is obviously pleased for her. Cass and jamie keep repeating the address to give them all the advertising they could want.

That's pretty cool says Curtis.

(Why is no one posting? I'm watching the Bob Knight interview with feed audio off, but saw the following activity on the video.)

A new plane banner has flown:

CASS WE LOVE YOU. BIGBROTHERWATCHERS@EGROUPS.COM

Cass is thanking everyone who sent the banner. She and Jamie are thanking BIGBROTHERWATCHERS@EGROUPS.COM repeatedly and waving for the cameras. Everyone, except Eddie (I don't see him), is watching the plane and are all happy for Cassandra.

(Back to Bob Knight then the BB TV show. Someone please post.)

Curtis and jamie and Cass now in the kitchen still talking about how cool this was for Cass. Thank you from Cassandra, she says

I forgot to mention that, when Cass first saw it, she said I know who that is from since only three people on the earth call me Cass. Then they noticed it was from an egroup and decided they used Cass to save on letters.

Jamie keeps repeating the egroup address to give them max advertising.

Cass tells Curtis she is sure he will get one too. Curtis says maybe he is leaving tomorrow and his family figures they can just talk to him direct tomorrow so they haven't sent a banner.

Cass is talking with Curtis about how great it would be if she leaves she can actually log on to these sites and talk to people who have been watching the show! Curtis says they will be so excited..."Oh my God it's really Cassandra"

Cass mentions that she asked the RR to get her Mom to call her job and see if she still has a job!

Josh and Jamie are talking about dogs, pugs and her time in Melbourne (6 months)

commercial now. I am trying to monitor the conversation while watching the show (on all 4 screens) Not a lot of important conversation. George is digging again. A plane goes over..they check but say no banner. jamie says it's cool though that they listen to us. She figures Cass' plane only stayed 5 minutes because that's what she told her Mom over the internet this PM.

lost the feed and can't get it back again..illegal operation. Sorry. I hope someone else is watching. Up to now they were just getting supper ready. They did talk again for a bit about how good it is to get nice banners. They thought maybe it's because they said they would ignore the bad ones from now on.

Feed 1 has been on Ja and Cu for a while. They are peacefully sitting next to eachother in wooden chairs in the kitchen. Just a lot of banter with Cass at the sink facilitating a bit.

Talk about pug and dinner.

Jo has been in bathroom for a while. Looks like he just took a shower and he's cleaning the room and stuff. He's got gloves on and he's doing a good job cleaning the toilet.

Can't tell what George is doing but he just got something from the bathroom and walked back outside.

Ge: I got some greenbeans for us too.

Newsflash: Josh did not take a shower. He's just cleaning. Curtis is in bathroom doing something with his hair.

In Kit:

Cass & George agree that it was pretty silly that with 10 people in the house, they only planted about 5 servings of greenbeans.

Ca: I'm gonna wear my same old banishment outfit again.

Cu. agrees that he too will have to wear the same old stuff tomorrow.

6:05 PM
Backyard: Music pumped over loudspeakers.

Curtis: Maybe they are censoring megaphone lady.

Music stops.

George: aww man.
Jamie: was it megaphone lady?
Curtis wonders if BB knows when something is planned and covered it.

Throwing ball.

Elevator music back.

Jamie to Cass who just came out, "they played it and then stopped." They are wondering if BB is covering or not.

Jamie says, oh here comes another banner.

"Ratings bad. Miss Megaphone threatened by CBS"

Jamie, "wow, they must be listening to us cause I wanted to know about the ratings and what happened to ML -- Oh well, I guess the ratings will pick up after this week."

Jamie asks Josh if he remembers some TV program that was dropped because of ratings but the fans protested so much that they put it back. Josh says, "nope."

Okay, wanted to add this.

New banner just flew by: RATINGS BAD: MS. MEG THREATENED BY CBS

Josh and Curtis were playing frisbee and Jamie was outside.

Jamie said "well, the ratings will go through the roof after these last few days."

Jamie also said, "remember how Party of Five had bad ratings but the fans loved it and petitioned to keep the show on the air?"

Josh: no

Jamie explains how Party of Five had rabid fans.

Jamie speculates that they flew the banner cause she'd been asking how the ratings were doing and where CMG was.

Everyone was outside when loud music began playing outside. Cassandra was like, what is that all about. Curtis suggested that they may have a sensor or something when someone is trying to yell over the wall.

The music was really loud.

Ja:Why did they play that?

C:I think they didn't want us to hear megaphone
girl.

Ja: Says something about it happened right after we heard the rock and roll music.

George wondered would they do that just for that reason? Why wouldn't they want us to hear that music.

The music starts up loud again but stops justs as suddenly.

Curtis says they must have sensors or something.

Another plane. They don't read it out loud so don't know what it says.

J: They are listening to us on the internet because I've asked them...(Didn't catch)

Josh jokes "what are the neilson ratings?"

Josh and Curtis continue to throw frisbee. Appearing to ignore the plane but I can hear it in the background. (wish they would read it out loud)

Jamie is talking to the cam. Thanking people for sending banner. Jamie now defending the ratings, saying that "Party of five" etc had bad ratings and I think her point is that they increased because of the fans, so she thanks the fans for that too. Cam goes to the chickens!!! Back to the LR, and she just said thank you again and is done with her speech.

Jamie tells Cass that ratings will probably skyrocket this weekend. Cass agrees. Now they are discussing how great it is to get feedback from the fans blah blah blah.
(can't type fast enough...sorry)

Jamie says that the ratings can't be that bad because they are competing with reruns.
Talking about competing with the Olympics and how that will be interesting.

Back to the fans and how great they are.
Must quote Jamie on this one: "I think we're bonding with our fans"

Tuesday, September 12, 2000 - 06:31 pm Click here to edit this post

New banner just flew at 6:10 pm:

'RATINGS BAD - MISS MEG THREATENED BY CBS'.

Jamie says 'I guess they must have heard us on the net before asking about the ratings and Miss Megaphone'. Josh say thanks for the banner.

Jamie then comments about the ratings 'I don't know why ratings are bad, i mean what are we competing against, just summer re-runs'.

Jamie then goes into back into living room and disscusseswith Cass about ratings.

All Jamie - 'Concerning the ratings and the fans you know, shows like Moonlighting, Party of Five and 90210 all had poor ratings but the fans support got a second series and made it popular'

'Ratings will sky rocket over the next two weeks'

'I feel we are bonding with are fans, are fans are cool'.

She also says maybe if CBS had upped the prize money to a million then it would be more successful with having a round figure'

Also if people here are wondering what happened to Miss Megaphone go to

http://www.angelfire.com/tv/bigbrother2000fans/news.html

there is an interview with her in mp3 format

Tuesday, September 12, 2000 - 06:34 pm Click here to edit this post

Curtis and Jamie speculate about why they play the music. Curtis thinks maybe to hide what they may hear or to keep people from hearing them.

Then Jamie says

J: I don't get that our ratings are bad because whatshows are competing against us?

C: The only thing I see that ratings are bad was that comment from the reporter about the disappointing ratings.

Everyone is outside now. Curtis and Josh playing frisbee and G&E at the table on the patio.George chopping food and Eddie reads the banner.

Eddie: RATINGS BAD
I've already come to the conclusion that our show has got to suck.
I'm really glad to be part of such a shit-y event.

Josh: (show) Too wholesome and good

C:You guys assume that it is true though.

George: I can see Eddie on T.V. "Hi, I'm Eddie bleep bleep bleep.

Josh: It's fun to watch some one like that.

I think no one posted the latest banner.Sorry I haven't been able to watch the live feed. I have been caught on the phone for over an hour! here's what I saw at Joker's live feeds though:

"BANNER
Tue Sep 12 18:06:39 2000


Jamie - heres another banner.
Geo - one coming

banner says RATINGS BAD! something about CBS

RATINGS BAD MISS MEGAPHONE THREATENED BY CBS

Jamie - well the ratings will pick up if they keep ...... (bad audio)
Everyone pretending to ignore the banner. Cass gone back in house. Curt - is pug ok. Jamie ya
she is alright.
No one discussing banner.
Jamie - have they got back to Eddie about that other frisbee (one on the roof). Josh - they told
him they would throw it back down.
Curt and Josh frisbeeing away.
Jamie - remember that show party of 5 that the ratings were so bad but the fans protested and
they got it back on. Josh - Nope!
Curt - yup same as Moonlighting and 90210. Jamie - really!
Josh - well whoever sent it - thanks! [posts combined]

Jamie talking about ratings
Tue Sep 12 18:11:02 2000


She mentions viewer protests that got networks to put badly rated shows back on the air after
they were cancelled

Now says the prize should have been 1 million bucks because it would have been catchier for
the public

Airplane pilot waves to them - Josh and Curtis play frisbee while George hums I Dream of
Jeannie song. Jamie says: "What could we be up against this summer that would make the ratings
bad? It's only reruns" ------and Tim adds:----------->
Regarding the banner just flown Jamie was asking Curtis and Josh if they remember when the
ratings for 'Party of Five' were down and the fans rallied? She did not finish her thought. [author
note: she was saying that maybe thats what there fans are doing for them] [posts combined]

Eddie's Conclusion
Tue Sep 12 18:18:53 2000


Eddie: I have already come to the conclusion that our show has got to suck! HE is now singing
'Frosty the Snowman'

and further to this on the Joker site

"Jamie was sitting on her perch in the kitchen talking to the camera's [like she did with her mom]
and is addressing the public and thanking everyone for their support and for listening to their
questions - she thanks those responsible for sending the banner and as she is talking BB switches
the feed to the chicken cam "

jamie is going on about how the ratings compare to survivor or other shows in the living room
(feed 4)----------and lily adds:-----------
Cassandra and Jamie are grateful for Megaphone Lady, especially for giving them the heads up
about the $10,000 offer. Cass said, can you imagine if we hadn't had those discussions? Jamie
says she feels that they are bonding with the fans and she wants to meet them when she gets out.
Cass says, I think you'll be able to do that or that won't be a problem. Cass would like to meet
the people who organized all this (the banners and megaphone). They feel as if they are in
communication back and forth with the fans. Jamie talked a lot about ratings, wonders if they're
in the top 10 on CBS. She suggests the live show had high ratings. Cass says it might be overkill.
They might be sick of us. [posts combined]

Curtis & Josh react to low ratings
Tue Sep 12 18:36:22 2000


Curtis: "I'm not so sure that's it's true (that the ratings are low.)"
Josh: "I don't give a f*ck if anyone's watching. It's CBS' problem."

(I'm still trying to talk on the phone and do this too ..sorry if it is disjointed)
