I thought the sundial thing was brilliant! they were only 5-10 minutes off...

Josh is saying that working your mind is worthless and working your body isn't because the producers give you weights and you know how much they are? Whereas trying to figure out the time of day is somehow against the rules b/c the producers haven't spoon fed it to you?

Wha?

There's a difference in bitching and calling someone a •••••.

Wasn't that fun!!!

And Marcellus got into it to. Gerry told Josh, "I would not want to live with you in a prisoner of war camp." How funny.

Josh's bone of contetion seemed to be that the producers don't WANT them to figure out what time it is. They don't mind for them to work out because they gave them weights, but since they were instructed NOT to bring clocks or watches (THAT would drive me insane!!!) that they shouldn't even be TRYING to figure out what time it is because to do so would be to break the rules.

Gerry argued that it was just a challenge for them to overcome and "maybe we'll be given a clock later on." I'm gonna have to agree with Gerry on that one. (Somebody write that down!!! LOL!)

I know BB1 had the potato clock. Did BB2 ever get one? I can't remember.

BB2 never got a clock but most of the time when they asked what time it was they were given the Info.IIRC

Why should time matter to them anyway? I would think all they would need to know is 'sun's up=daytime sun's not up=not daytime'

LOL, Pamy, if they're time freaks like me, it matters! I have to have at least one clock in every room in my house, ALWAYS wear a watch when I'm out of the house, even when I'm not on a time schedule. I think my parents raised me in a time-regimented way because even if I have NOTHING to do at work, I won't go to lunch until it's "time."

If I was in that house, not knowing what time it was would drive me batty.

I would have brought my own potato. :)

First Josh appoints himself the leader of the pack, then assumes the role of the producers' proxy in the group.
Never thought I'd say this, but he makes Mike tolerable by comparison

Josh's angle is "obtuse".. Sean.. yes.. I almost posted that last night about Booger being almost tolerable after watching Josh..

Methinks Josh should let the producers produce and butt OUT. He's so insecure, controlling, and abrasive..

Josh is a total Pain in the A$$. If these people were planted, who thought he would be what we want!!! If I were in there, I would be seriously conniving to get him out, even if it worked against me.

I'm surprised Josh didn't keep quiet if he thought this was messing with the producers, which is a no-no. With it being Gerry's project, Gerry would incur the wrath of the producer, removing (possibly) one more hurdle for Josh.

Maybe Josh just has an issue with neing in control, even more than wanting competition removed?

Hmmmmm - whats the big freaking deal? It doesn't work once the sun is outta the yard anyways.

They still won't know what time it is when they go to bed.

I think its cool and shows how smart Gerry is (and I would have to say I think he might be the most intelligent person in the USA BB run - although not necessarily the wisest).

Speaking of clocks, I think one of my most favorite moments in BB1 was when Josh was sneaking around changing the time on the potato clock to mess with everyone.

ryn, i respectfully submit that, despite gerry's ingenious sundial efforts, curtis is the most intelligent bb'er so far. (snee misses curtis.)

If I remember right...BB2 they made a sundial...

Hmmmmm - resourceful?

he never made a Sun Dial though Snee ;)

How about this - I think Gerry might be the most likely to survive on a desert island....AND ger rescued.

"BB's going out of their way to make sure we don't know what time it is" ~ Josh

Errr.. They took the clocks out of the house & that constitutes "out of their way"? I personally thinks the muppet just likes to whine.

Josh is just mad that he can't control Gerry the way he thought he could. Josh has such venom for anyone that doesn't do his bidding. Actually I am surprised how much venom many seem to have so early in the game.

i think it's that josh is intimidated because gerry and roddy thought this up together and they are so smart it scares him.

The last 3 repliers - Sounds about right.

I think Josh went into the house with this BELIEF that he would be able to take charge right away. He told us so the first night. Things haven't worked out that way and he is pi$$ed off. Somebody else said that he had a Napolean complex and I think that sums it up perfectly. Its killing him that everyone else hasn't bowed under to his superior leaderhship qualities.

Puttergirl I think... no skip that, I know you are right. Josh came in thinking he could control the game. I guess he forgot people do have brains and can think for themselves.

I missed him getting in Gerry's case about the Sundial, but it sounds like he was out of line.

Josh seems to have low self esteem issues and covers them up with jokes. Its very transparent.
