Lombadier | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:36 am     I also like Jerry. I love it that he has outlasted Josh and Eric. |
Scorpiomoon | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 02:16 am     There are times when Gerry has made me cringe, but I do have a great admiration for him. I don't know how he is able to stay in a confined space with people who ignore him, extend bad vibes toward him and are so rude in the most passive/aggressive way possible. If it was me, I would have broken down and cried by now. Gerry has a lot of strength...and patience. And I admire him for using his time in the house so wisely. I saw him by the hottub last night and his body really has changed. Good for him! |
Somelight | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 02:24 am     I love Gerry and hope he goes all the way. He has a good heart and I couldn't keep my cool with the immature 20 yr olds. I wish Gerry wouldn't let Marc. use his friendship since Marc. is not nice to anyone behind their backs. GO GERRY!!!! |
John32070 | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 05:16 am     I've said quite a bit about G in other threads, but I'll add in I hope he gets to at least the final 4 and hope he wins the next HOH and puts up D and M. |
Efilon | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 06:00 am     I really like Gerry! I hope he gets to the final two and wins! If he is there and the voters think about it honestly they would have to give him their vote. He is the only person in there who has not constantly bashed and trashed every other houseguest. He has taken care of the pool and hot tub. He has never griped about BB, except for the hg coming back thing and even then he accepted it and kept going. He has more character in his little finger than any of the other houseguests! Another thing, I don't get the whole "bad hygiene" thing. He has always showered in the morning. Just because they don't see it because they are sleeping doesn't mean it didn't happen! He has had some allergy problems but he is very cautious now to make sure he has a tissue, unlike Roddy and Jason wiping their noses while they cook, Chiara and Lisa popping zits and then going right to the kitchen. Chiara laying all over the counter and table and other things they "all" have done are much more bothersome to me. Off soapbox! GO GERRY GO!!! |
Abbynormal | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 06:55 am     Gerry seems like he would be a great husband and father. It sounds like they have alot of love and fun going on there. I think his family will be proud of him. |
Beserkknight2 | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 06:59 am     I too admire Gerry. He must know the other HG's don't like him and yet he stays cool. Shows a great deal of patience and courage. I'm on his side. Go Gerry! |
Spree17 | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 07:13 am     I never thought I would say this but marcys 15 hour a day gerry trashing has finally moved me over to gerrys camp. I pray he finds out about marcys stabbing him in the back |
Mrdisguise | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 07:27 am     I think that if Gerry reached the final 2- he could win. In the Diary room- he has not attacked the other houseguests. Danielle in the diary room- on the other hand- has been making fun of the houseguests and just being mean. So when the evicted houseguests watch the episodes, they will get a negative view of Danielle. Gerry, Roddy, Jason have been decent in the Diary Room. Lisa- not as mean as Danielle- but she did reveal her anger towards Chiara. Amy is generally obnoxious or irritating. Marcellas' crying will get him sympathy votes. Danielle has been playing aggressively in this game instead of just sitting back and you have to admire her plotting and scheming. But doesn't she realize that her harsh words could cost her some votes? |
Ellenkats | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 07:43 am     I like Gerry okay -- he's not a fave but if he did manage to win, I wouldn't be overly upset over it. I don't think Gerry's hygiene is any worse that the other HGs. As far as his rambling and quoting/misquoting go -- it's no worse that Chiara sharing sexual escapades, Roddy's long-winded so-whats, or Marc's harsh bashing of him. |
Niceguy | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 11:27 am     Gerry is eccentric. I'm sure he goes to sleep thinking,"I don't need this crap, do I?" I'm sure he thinks his chances are slim to win it all but he really has played wisely. So far. I see him not being desperate and loud when he's nominated. I expect if he's voted out that he'll handle it gracefully(maybe with a quote from Shakespeare). |
Mnkygrrrl | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 11:39 am     I like and have a lot of respect for the things Gerry does outside of the house. He really has helped a lot of kids lives. I don't understand the petty comments made by the HGs-maybe just immaturity on thier parts. I just think he deserves way more respect. |
Abby | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 01:44 pm     The Thing that bothers me... If Gerry should be able to get to the final two... Remember those that get the votes are the very ones that sat in that house and "Trashed" this man. Do you really think they would have a "seen the light" personality change to see the errors of their ways to Vote for him to win? Call me a pessimist, But I think they will carry this to the very end. But My hope is that America will see. What these HGs did (And BB with that episode) was wrong. Gerry, I hope gets to the final two, And even though he may not win, just to prove that he Can and he DID do it! GO GERRY!! |
Csnog | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 03:27 pm     Gerry can be proud for making it to the 1/2 way point. If some of the others start to turn on each other he just may be in the top 3. |
Krossd | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 03:43 pm     I'll add my name to this list too. I think what they did to him last week was so unfair, and I, too, waited for them to counter Gerry's hygene with what the others did and was disappointed when they didn't. How embarrassing it must have been for his family. I wouldn't want to get caught in a long winded conv. with him, or have to sleep in the same room with the snoring and machine, but if I saw Roddy in one chair and Gerry in another, I'd sit nearest Jerry. He is more interesting and diverse, he has 2 way conversatons, and seems genuinely interested in the opinions and experiences others. |
Draco | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 03:52 pm     I felt sad watching the show the other night when all the houseguests were talking about not wanting to be around Gerry because he was boring them and wouldn't stop talking. They even had a code term for it that I can't remember?? He seems like a really nice man and I felt badly that he would see that show after leaving the house. |
Allietex | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 12:56 am     I really feel the reason the other houseguests don't want to talk to Gerry is because they never talk about anything important or of substance. Roddy is a little better here but his is mostly showing off his knowledge of trivia. They don't know how to have a conversation about anything but themselves or pop culture. The idea of discussing world events or real culture is so far above their heads they think anyone who does is weird. They put it down to being pompus or in a teaching mode because they have never gotten past school age to the point where they can understand or participate in a meaningful conversation. As far as his hygene is concerned, we have all seen that as bogus. The others are just as bad or worse. He is the only one who has tried to improve what he does that annoys others. The rest don't care or think they have no faults. And as for his allergies and snoring, those are health problems for God's sake. When Lisa had a sore on her rear she got sympathy. I have heard so much Gerry bashing it has made me sick, and I am very disappointed and disgusted in CBS for showing that segment on Gerry. They really showed the mob mentality didn't they. Not worthy of a class organization. Thanks for letting me vent. I am glad to find there are others who like Gerry and feel he has had a bum rap. I hope he wins the whole thing and carries it off with class. And one last thing, it is a shame that Marcy wasn't nominated this week so Gerry could have told him he would have liked to veto him but he was so insulted the first time that he didn't dare. Wouldn't that be a hoot! |
Spear | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 02:09 am     It's funny listening to Danielle, Lisa, and Roddy coming up with reasons for why Sheryl Crow recognized him -- the hygiene thing, he's old, he's bald, ... I guess they can now add envy as another reason for voting him out. |
Gina8642 | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 11:18 am     Has G been involved in any of the mechinations about whether it should be Chi or Roddy these last few days? Has anyone talked to him about the vote this morning? Does he even know that Ja/Li/D have been flip flopping all over the place these last few days? It seems like he's missed out on all of it. Does this make him less of a target next week?? |
Bbdiva | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 11:50 am     I also am a big fan of Gerry's, I think he is playing the game well, as much as lying is part of this game, if he has lied he has done so well enough not to be put in the class with Dani and Roddy. I would love to see him win it all, but who could be up against him in the end and have Gerry walk away with the money?? now if I knew the answer to that one..... |
Crazydog | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 11:54 am     Gerry isn't very well liked by the others. I don't seem him winning against any of them with the exception of possibly Danielle. Unfortunately, after today, the chances of Danielle lasting to the end are miniscule. |
Whit4you | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 12:16 pm     Abby you gotta realize that anyone up against him will have had to vote out those they made deals with and lied and backstabbed and so on to get to the top two. So if he is in the top two he will definately stand a chance! |
Jasper | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 12:22 pm     At this point, actually came to this conclusion some weeks ago, Gerry is the only one I do want to see walk away with the loot. Jason has done nothing but be Dani's lackey, he was my other choice, just because he has never been as nasty as the others. The way they go on and on about Gerry despite all of their own obviously overlooked funky habits, is pathetic. Do they pick on him simply because he is older, bald and heavy? Kudos to him for have the strength and patience he has shown. He just goes along agreeing not rocking the boat, but the gears are turning. And I definitely am impressed with the effort he puts in on that elliptical machine, he has given me incentive to extend my time. This whole bunch slay me with their talk about nasty people and good people. You really can't be a "good" person when it comes down to this sort of game. And those who think they fall in the "good" category are the worst of the bunch. Marci was one of my favourites at the beginning, but frankly he is almost as trashy as Chiara, although his one liners are priceless at times. Anyways, rant over, only my second post too. The whole point of this diatribe is I'm throwing my support to the Gerry team! Go Gerry...show them how a grown up acts! |
Boberry | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 05:07 pm     I can't possibly point out anything else about what all has happened to Gerry and how admirably he has handled it, so I will just say ... go Gerry! You are great! |
Joker11962 | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 08:36 pm     Go Gerry Go!! They all think he can't win. They all think Roddy will win. Hmmm... are they thinking at all is the question? Roddy can't win if 6 of them don't vote for him in the end. Simple solution. |
Eden | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 08:49 pm     Day by day my admiration for Gerry grows. He has the patience of Job and, I think, a very sincere caring heart. He has acted when it has been necessary. He has played for himself without once, that I've seen, blaming or badmouthing others. He's been shunned in a way that borders on cruelty and yet has not become bitter or complained. Pretty amazing stuff compared to everyone else in the house. |
Crossfire | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 09:01 pm     Speaking of Gerry, it was nice of all those who seem to hate him, give up their cash so he could send a gift to his wife. That shows that there is still some humanity in the house. I wonder who came up with that idea? |
Csnog | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 09:22 pm     Not all the cash. After the cameras stopped rolling Dannie took some of it back. |
Chandler | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 10:14 pm     The HGs must have forgotten how badly they bashed Gerry just a short time ago and would walk away whenever he cooked anything. Tonight they are all chowing down on pork chops that he made, and there doesn't appear to be anyone who isn't just absolutely loving them. |
Willsfan | Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 10:24 pm     Giving the money to Gerry for an orange tree had to have been BB's idea. The HGs are so self-involved it might not have occurred to them to offer such a thing. Csnog said Danielle took some of the money back. wow That's being cheeeap and petty. |
Car54 | Thursday, August 22, 2002 - 03:47 pm     I think it is very interesting that despite the fact that most of them bash Gerry a lot, the HG's pooled their money and gave it to Gerry so he could buy a gift for his anniversary. And I thought his choice of an orange tree was very poetic... something that will last forever and bear fruit, and will remind him of this experience. Beats the crap out of Krista sending Mike Boogie flowers don't it? |
Missiehillie | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 11:28 am     WHY does Marcellus hate Gerry so much? Yes, G has some physical issues that these perfect young people may not like, but M is being so nasty, nasty nasty! I know I should go and read every transcript of every live feed but I was hoping someone here could give a quick report. Thanks. And, BTW, I like Jerry, not for those physical attributes per se, but he is an honest man with integrity. |
Oregonfire | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 11:50 am     I thought Gerry had the coolest house. Very well-designed and whimsical. Cute! |
Twiggyish | Sunday, August 25, 2002 - 06:24 pm     I hope Gerry doesn't go, he has been good to them, even if they haven't returned the favor. |
