Okay, here's a test. How many of you have enough respect for your fellow posters to leave this thread alone if you are anti-Jamie. I'd like to see a few comments that are not venomous. I've been a reasonably pleasant member of this community and I'm personally asking that you not turn this thread into another hate Jamie thread. I think I can pretty well guess which people will ignore this request, but I'm going to try it anyway. THIS IS A TEST. How soon before you fail it?

I hope Jamie is one of the final three.

Nearly an hour and not a single posting. I guess I am alone out here. Oh well...

Oops... I spoke to soon. Just time enough to correct this. Thanks, Kay.

I would love to see Jamie in the final three. She has been a good friend to everyone in the house and is a sweet girl.

I like Jamie, and I started thinking after Cassandra's conversation that it might be better for Jamie's career aspirations if she goes out on Wednesday. She would have two days of the limelight being totally on her, like it was with everyone else. She could have her separate interviews in New York. And if Karen can get a gig on a soap, surely there are opportunities out there for Jamie.

Rufis.. As a non-Jaime fan... let me add something...

Regardless of anything else.. I really believe that Jaime has sincerely liked her housemates. I think that when she grows a bit more with experience.. she will do just fine in life.. and I wish her the best.

I'm for Jamie too - not to win the grand prize, but def. to beat out Josh. No offense to Josh fans out there, but he has contributed zero to the show (in my opinion) and has not even ignited the smallest flicker of...anything....interest, dislike...zilch. Jamie has kept things interesting. Just defending her is a fulltime job, but at least people don't forget she is there. She is playing a game. i don't know what Josh is doing, but I don't think he should be paid for it.

I say: Curtis or Eddie 1 and 2
Jamie - 3

Josh - the dreaded 4

Rufus: I think the Jamie fans have been scared into acute shyness by all the attacks elsewhere on the board. They'll come out of their shells, though. Thanks for starting this thread.

Thank you all. So far so good. I really would like to see how long this positive thread can last. I'm really feeling bad tonight.

Jamie is my favorite now, I hope that she wins, and all of her goals come true. I think that people who are not happy with themselves need something to hate. Because Jamie is driven, positive, and a woman, people want to pick on her. I could understand if there was a real reason, but there is no reason at all to hate her.
Anyways, Go Jamie!!!!!

Jamie has played the game fair and square, and mangaged to keep her composure. Isn't this what it's all about?

I have not been a Jamie fan.....but I see in her a genuine concern for her fellow HG's. I have not really seen anything two faced or intentionally unkind. I too would rather see her in the final three than Josh.

One of the character traits I most admire in people is loyalty to their friends - Jamie shined like a star in my eyes, tonight. Even the banner from Curtis' frat bro couldn't persuade her to turn on him or him on her. They're both special people.

It is so hard for me at this point because I like everyone that is left. I think Jamie is a beautiful and caring girl. For some reason (most likely jealousy) people take offense at her. To me she doesn't primp any more than Josh and yet it seems to be OK for him. With some luck and training I believe she will make it as an actress. I hope she does because after watching her all summer I feel I could say I knew her when. I don't think I will vote this week and let the rest of the world make the decision.

Housebound - I have a theory about the whole Josh primping thing....If Jamie had been the one to lick her finger and rub her nipples do you think the majority of people on this board would be voting her out???

I think not!

I will be wasting my one measly dollar voting out Josh. I don't want to vote against Eddie, 'cuz I like him. And I really don't feel like throwing my money away on multiple votes for Josh 'cuz he ain't leaving. I'm afraid it's Jamie's turn, which really bugs me. I want her in the final three!

I think being in the BB house will be a great experience for her. Can you imagine the great learning experience she has had in there? I have heard her talk about how she loved being around and getting to know different people. I don't know if her dreams of Hollywood will come true or not. I wish her the best when she gets out next Wed.

Jamie has been my favorite since day one. I pray that she will make it to the final three.

I voted for Eddie twice this evening. That accounts for two of the three votes I have ever been able to make for the show (my college dorm room has no long distance, and I am home this weekend)

Go Jamie, you sweetheart!
Go Curtis, you awesome fellow!
Go Josh, you kind soul!
Go Eddie, you lovable scamp!

LOL :)

I'm hoping Jamie's friends will steer her away from from a lot of these boards. Right or wrong, she is concerned about her image, and will be deeply affected by some of the things that have been said.

I also feel she will overcome it, and this may actually help prepare her for the brutality of media critics. I fear that being crude and obnoxious is going to keep someone much more deserving out of the money.

Finally, she still looked damn good tonight without makeup, so, if she chooses to go through the trouble of dealing with that, that isn't anybody's business but hers. We will see more of Jamie somewhere down the road. Being a part of this will lead to a bigger payoff than winning the contest. She may not have the skills right now, but she does have the drive and desire that will keep her going until she gets a chance.

Kady99: It's was subtle enough that I'm not counting it :). The test continues.

Congratulations Heavensgatebb, you win the prize. I've never seen your name before so I didn't guess it would be you. Let's reset the clock and see how long before the next inconsiderate person shows up.

The best memories I have of Jamie is when she gets caught off guard. Like tonight when Julie came on and said it was showtime. The look Jamie had was priceless. She had the look like her Mom caught her with her hand in the cookie jar. It was really cute. :) And if her and Curtis do hook up after the show, she should be able to tolerate his snoring after sleeping with the Pughole!! And as much as she has talked about Letterman, I really wish CBS could get her on his show. She would love it. :)

I'm not a Jamie supporter.. but I think it's totally rude not to allow other posters to have this thread without someone trying to bash her.
I think some of these haters are out of control.
I wish Jamie well in the future and hope she finds whatever it is she's looking for when she goes back out into the world. And I wish more people would feel compassion for others.. even if you don't necessarily support them to win.

Jamie has really started to come out of her shell in the past week. I think that Curtis has helped to give her a bit more confidence in herself. If they had gotten together earlier, there's no telling how much public perception of her might have changed. I'm a theatre director and I have not been that impressed with her potential as an actress, mainly because she has been so guarded about revealing her emotions. But in the last few days we have seen her radiantly happy and terribly sad. There is a great deal of emotion in there and I look forward to seeing more of it if and when she gets a chance to display it.
