When I said if there was a morality contest between Amy, Tonya, Lisa, and Chiara that it would be a 4-way draw, I didn't know how right I would be..

Erina (or anyone) what did Amy do last night to make a fool of herself? Thanks!

Julie - Got a little tipsy. (understatement of the year.)

In all fairness, that is true Scorpio. Chi and Amy do have something in common. Yes, she does dissect others and doesn't see her own problems.

I still like her, though.

To all those board members who applied to be on BB3 and were rejected: I know why, your rap sheet wasn't long enough.

I had a DWI when I was 23 or 24 - guess you can all lump me in with Chia & Amy.

Ryn - A DWI, LOL...Amy's rap sheet would've run me out of paper.

That's very unfortunate. However, I'm really glad to see that there aren't any charges listed for more than three years now. Maybe she has learned her lessons and changed her reckless/dangerous behavior. If getting drunk in the BB house is the worst thing she does these days, there's nothing criminal about that. I hope she is an example of a young person who was lucky she didn't kill someone (or herself) and then got her act together. Too many people get the lesson too late. If she's reformed, I'll give her full credit for that.

I guess maybe there's an element of risk taking in one's personality that would make a person even willing to put themselves out there for the world to see like that, warts and all. Maybe that's why they seem to have plenty of risk taking behaviors in their backgrounds as well.

Scorpiomoon....I TOTALLY agree with your last two lines there. You are so right...Amy is a hypocrite and I never realized it until now. She doesn't talk about any of her own faults, as a matter of fact she talks and behaves like she thinks she has none...but she is very quick to point out other peoples faults. Unbelievable! Especailly Chiara, she has raked her over the coals what with all her "white trash" comments and whatnot. At least Chiara is strong and honest enough to talk about her short comings. Amy walks around that house like her sh** don't stink but when the others have their backs turned she is all over them. I think she was the black widow that bit Lisa in the a** !!! Man, people like Amy really eat at me!! Thank God she's gone.

Question of the day: How long before Jason's rap sheet comes out?

Katrina your last paragraph is very insightful. You make some excellent points.

The SMOKING GUY article says:

* * *

* In February 1999, a West Memphis Municipal Court judge issued a warrant for Crews's arrest after she bounced a check--for a whopping $6.77--at the Flash Market gas station.

You don't think that Amy had used a bad check to purchased cheese do you?

Sia, now that you mention it... yeah. I can see that, too.

Katrina, good point.

Erina, what show are you watching?

The only other charge I see there that bothers me is the Reckless Driving charge.

Alcohol in college? Sounds like a busted party where everyone under age was taken in.

Bad Check? Sloppy, but I have bounced a couple, looks like the laws there are very tough on that kind of thing.

Bank Accident? She backed up without looking - been there done that.

Smoking gun is like the "Current Affair" of web sites, they have to make it sensational.

Not excusing her, and the reckless driving thing is not good.

But to me this is just people looking for excuses to rip a new one in any HG.

And I never commented on the chiara thread, but I would say the same about her.

Not excusing drinking and driving, thank goodness no one was hurt. But I would bet there is at least one more HG in that house that might have a DUI, and if not you can bet there is at least one more who had driven a vehicle while legally intoxicated.

LOL Woofy. I hope it was good cheese, not that shredded mozzerella crap.

Maybe the producers think that if a house guest has been in the "big house" it prepares them to be locked up in the "little house."

Just kidding!

Or maybe the BB producers are trying out their own version of "Scared Straight" to keep these people from reoffending!

This is news that doesn't make me happy, but it doesn't make me want to pummel the girl, either (which is the same reaction I had with Chia). If the DUI arrest didn't necessarily sober Amy up, it seems to have gotten her attention like a switch on a hounddog's hiney. Up to that point, she'd managed to string up what, five arrests in a few short years? Someone on that kind of roll I would expect to continue on a downward spiral. However, she was very young then, and is not very old now, but has managed to correct her behavior sufficiently to avoid repeating her early mistakes. Her continued drinking is not encouraging, but here's hoping she will continue to keep herself within the confines of the law.

JULIEBOO: In answer to your question and in my opinion here is what she did to make a fool of herself:

1) Marcellas was nice enough to pick her to take on the AM date. He even said he did it because he knew she needed it. But what does she do to thank him. She drinks all the alcohol which puts her into a stooper and even Marcellas himself said by the end of the date he was like "can this be over now, can we go?" He was ticked at her behavior and she kind of spoiled the night for him.

2)She comes back into the house drunk and is foaming at the mouth outside about this and that so that Danielle has to escort her back in the house and sit with her. Even Danielle herself said "this is going to be on national TV honey, I don't want people to see you like this." Danielle sat with her in her bed to try and help keep her in control.

3) Jason felt the same way as Danielle and escorted her in the house and had to help her make her bed. He also told her he was concerned she was going to embarass herself. (TOO LATE)

4) Eric realizes she's out at the hottub by herself and feels compelled to say to eveyone else, "please keep an eye on her". She could have fallen into the hot tub and drowned.

5) Last but not least, Mar, KiKi, Ja, Dani and Ger are in the HRD last night talking about her little show for the longest time. It was very clear Mar. was not happy with her. Everyone else thinks she was a little over the top.


I don't know about you, but I would personally be embarassed of my behavior of I were her. I personally think she acted a fool last night!!

Amy appears to have continued to drive with a suspended/revoked license. She was caught at least twice, which means she never stopped.

She has proven to be a low-life and is probably a hard-core alcoholic.

I thought she had some morals. Apparently, she doesn't.

Thanks Erin!

And Poser, lighten up on Amy. Geeze!

I still love that girl even though I disapprove of her behavior. I had a bit of a wild streak when I was a young'un but I had the smarts not to get caught. So I don't buy the oh-she-was-just-young excuse. Or the hope-she's-learned-and-grown observation. Sorry, but comparing her background with her current house drinking activities, it sure doesn't look to me as though she's learned a whole lot from her experiences. Good heavens Tonya might have been right!

Amy is still my favorite in the house and I will miss her if (ok, ok, WHEN) she goes.

On the bright side, at least she's not chugging Nyquill.

I had a DUI myself and I wasn't even driving (really) HOWEVER - prior to that I'd drunk and drove a # of times (prior to THAT I did work for M.A.D.D) I'm very anti drinking and driving and think anyone who gets in an accident while drunk driving and kills someone should face the same charges someone would face if they were playing around with a loaded gun pointing it at people and shooting it would face if they killed someone. You know when you pick up that 2nd drink if you are or are not driving...and know if you will have the common sense after the 2nd drink to NOT have a 3rd PRIOR to picking up that 2nd drink.

Bottom line is - I don't agree with Amy or Chia drinking and driving but - I know very few people who've never done it..even once.. maybe they didn't get caught and get a DUI but it's a rare person who can honestly say they have NEVER done the exact same thing those two have..
