LOL RealityJunkie...Don't fret I'll send you a map...we're in Mass. I have been to TX and thanks you can come up here. I had fire ants have a buffet on my legs when my friends car had a tire blow out (this was New Years Eve so we had just some FINE service getting it fixed). Then when we got home people were shooting off guns to celebrate. I ran and hid in the bathroom. So to stay sort of on topic (lol lame attempt) I'd like to complain about TX, fire ants and guns LOL.

So come up and we can take you for Chinese and the Christmas Tree Shop but be warned...bring an empty suitcase. A friend of mine who lives in MI came to visit who HATES to shop. She made me take her to the Christmas Tree shop 3 times AND she had to buy another suitcase--I'm not kidding lol.

And your wish is my command...you wanted to see the colored fountains so here ya go.(I just found out the room is called the Tiki Lagoon...I've gone there for 20 years and never knew that lol).

PS...let me know if you want me to take a pic of the canister set. I also got a matching bowl, mugs, tray, but could only nab 2 plates. They are all hand done and hand painted in a lovely floral. Oh yeah stay on topic...I'd like to complain I could only get 2 plates :)

I'd like to complain about distorted audio.

In line w/what Frey said I'd like to not only complain about that, but audio that doesn't go with the pic.

And worse than that I'd like to complain about camera angles. This year they are shooting SOOO far away you can barely see who is who...why won't they shoot in closer? Or at least put a zoom button on Real.

Thanks for the photo, Lurk! It took me a second to realize that the restaurant is all indoors. I was admiring the twikling skylight when I realized it was painted. That place looks cool!

I would like to complain about the audio feeds and video, too. Since I am STILL on dial-up, I can't make out anything anyone is saying and have decided it is pointless to keep the SuperPass beyond next Monday when it expires. Since closed captioning isn't provided, I can't hear/see anything they say!!!

I'd like to complain that I was afraid my husband might come out at 5am, seeing me watching Nathan & Allie in bed, and might think I was watching porn. LOLOLOL He'd think I was a freak just watching the hamsters, but if he walked out and thought I was watching a "porn cam", he'd really think I'd lost it. :) :) :)

Sureality, I'm also on dial-up with the same problems. It does seem to be pretty good early in the morning, so I'm hoping that if a lot of people drop out after the free trial period, it will improve.

I'm on DSL with Boston speakers and I can't hear a damn thing. Either these HG's are REALLY good whisperers, I've lost my hearing or the feeds just stink. I'm betting on the latter. (But too much an addict to toss em lol).

For some reason I have less trouble hearing Jack than the others. Do you think I have a case of selective hearing because he is the only one there of my generation?

lol laisey....I used headphones last night...didn't really help much except that I could turn them all the way up without bothering anyone else in the house. Some of them are really good at whispering...I also think that they pinch the mic or when laying on the bed/couch hug a pillow which muffles it really well.

I have a SERIOUS complaint. There has been a lot of talk, jokes, references and innuendo's about who may or may not have an STD in the house.

NONE of us know the timing of the situation that SCOTT chose to make public. I have gently tried to suggest we don't go there. True or untrue Amanda did NOTHING to bring this into a public forum and I think think it is seriously appalling that folks here reapeatedly keep making references to it. There are lines that shouldn't be crossed and I think this is one of them.

Scott was totally fair game cause he (moronically) let the world know about his condition. I hate the feel and energy of all these innuendos about Amanda, who seems like a relatively sweet person. And even if she wasn't we have no right going on and ON about something she most likely doesn't have. Think of the implications of how this could effect her in the real world.

I totally believe that you give up PART of your privacy when you go in that house, but this is too far IMHO especially since we have NO CLUE what her situation actually is, yet folks are jumping to conclusions. This is beyond idle chatter and into potentially life ruining gossip.

I respectfully ask that folks stop doing that, because plain and simple, it's WRONG!

Thank you- I agree.

I want to complain about confusion!!! I can't keep any of the names or "alliances" straight for that matter...They all look alike and act alike with the exception of a few of them....ACK

Thank you so much for saying that Lurk...I totally agree with you and refuse to post anything the HG say regarding that either. I have the utmost respect for Amanda at this point. I think she has handled herself in an extremely classy way considering what Scott revealed.

Hey Ice....I was going to complain about Erika wearing those sunglasses...but I guess that helps us tell her apart huh? hehe...

Along the same lines as Lurk's statement I'm very uncomfortable with the speculation of abuse in the X relationships.

LOL very true Lurk...Erika=Sunglasses Jack=old guy I got 2 of them...I am on a roll

(disclaimer: no offense to those of the same age range of Jack)

Lurk...great pic of Kowloon's! I always loved the colored fountains. Yes, I realize there are just lights under the fountains but it is so cool how they change colors. I have to go back there soon.

I need to complain that there is nobody on this BB that I have yet bonded with. The only one I can relate to so far is Michele. Be nice..lol

Laisey

Nathalia, considering my opinion of most of this group, I am extremely relieved to know that you have not bonded with any of them. I knew the people here possessed discriminating taste.

Laisey...I can't even follow what is going on, who's in what alliance, who's lying, who's telling the truth. Why they are all flocking to Nate is beyond me. He is not running the show and will not be HOH for the entire run. I thought he was cute first episode but after watching him on the feeds, it makes him look so ugly.
