Hope this is the right page for this. Just wanted to remind everyone that Jordan appears on Letterman tonight. The show is in its opening monologue right now, and a huge storm is also brewing outside so I hope I can tape it and post a summary for you all in about an hour.

Well so much for her alledged comment about wanting to defend everyone in the house now that she is out and has some perspective.

She just finnished slamming everyone on the Letterman show. Still the Jordan we remember.

fruit, I don't agree that Jordan slammed everyone. I thought she was pretty restrained and less "edgey" than she was in the house. Laughed at herself too about expecting to make a difference.

Fruitbat;

I think we have agreed on somethings but on slamming everyone I will have to disagree with you. To be quite frank I think she just said what some of us say here on the boards all day long, everyday. "Where did they find these people?"

If that is a slam then I am wrong.

See you tommorrow... Off to get some sleep.

Personally, I think Jordan could have done some serious slamming and didn't. I think her one comment about "Where did they get these people" was just meant to be light and funny. I didn't see it as a slam.

I had no negative opinions about Jordan and I think tonights interview was excellent and I think her laughing at herself shows where she is at on the whole thing.

It's all in how each person interperts it. :)

My entry sounded curt.....Yes I agree that it was a good interview and I found myself softening towards her a little. Not for her personally but for the human condition. We are all flawed.

I meant in reference to the alleged quote. I had expected her to defend them as a group in some way. Speak a little about how difficult the enviornment is.

She demonstrated a prevelant and annoying behavior in our culture. She had to seperate herself from the other HG's by knocking them to make herself rise above. Like she was different, in some way better.

I refer to her quote..."Where did they get these people?".............Same way they got her.

Jordan on Letterman: "I thought that I was going to be able to talk about my views, my opinions, and cause a positive change in society."

OMG! What have we done??? Jordan was put on this earth to make a positive change on society and we, the American people, had the audacity to deny her fate. Let's send her back in...

How egotistical is she? (singing a la Andy Kaufman's "Mighty Mouse")... "Here I come to save the day"

She's funny, that Jordan....

On second thought, pathetic is what she is.

That Kaufman stuff.... now, that's funny!

I am sorry that you feel that way Timbit. Although it may not have been realistic to think one could change American Socioty (and Canada), I do not begrudge any one who has those ideas. In a small why she has changed a small part of America. In sofar as "we" are spending time even discussing the topic "Jordan". How easy is it for you to read these comments and simpily walk away without commenting. I feel compeled to comment and in that way I have changed, or at lest till october 1.

Timbit, I agree about Jordan's ego. Yes, the interview was pretty light-hearted, but it always strikes me funny that she thought that she'd be able to talk about her life, her problems, her insights, etc. when she was only one of ten people. She's disappointed that she couldn't talk MORE about herself. Ugh! How about those producers being so impressed with her speech and intelligence and on an on? Sorry Jordan lovers -- you can't like that girl anymore than she likes herself.

I just wonder how long it would take Jordan to get her message out, considering she had a month of "24/7" coverage.

How long were her views and opinions, anyway?

Did she mention anything about goerge's friend killing??? I am so curious what the guests' reaction to that is once they find out... So curious...
