Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 12:37 pm     I have a question - I forgot what day they actually make the nominations....is that today? |
Denimore | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 12:41 pm     Yes, today. I think around 6pm their time we get FOTH. |
Sisalou | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 12:50 pm     Why did Erica get to pick what their supper would be? |
Laisey | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 01:00 pm     Last week the FOTH started close to 5:00 and lasted until about 6:45. I took it personally since was trying to watch TAR and keep my other eye on the boards. |
Marej | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 01:33 pm     Does anyone know where the 7 people will be sequestered? Will they have access to any outside contact? |
Draheid | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 01:35 pm     Marej, The sequestering was discussed in this thread: The House the 7 get sent to when evicted... You'll probably find your answers there. Hope that helps. |
Gidget | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 01:52 pm     San Fran- I'll let the board know how it goes... how much I suffer, how long I can go and if I lose any weight, stamina.... why? mostly to amuse myself.... like a cheap vacation |
Konamouse | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 02:02 pm     Re: the PB&J Diet. PB = 100 kcal per 1 Tbsp w/ about 3.5 g protein. Jelly = ~55 kcal per Tbsp Bread = ~80 kcal per 1 oz slice w/ ! 2g protein. 1 standard PB&J Sandwich ~300 kcal. You cannot drink soda, alcohol, juice or milk. You cannot eat any snack foods, fruit, vegetables or meats/fish/eggs/poultry/etc. You cannot have potatoes/rice/pasta/cereal. See the limitations? Give it a day or two and are so "sick" of PH&J that your total caloric intake is less than the amount needed to maintain your current weight - voila! You lose weight. It's cheap. You will not be malnourished in a week or two, just very bored of the food. Good luck! 'squeek' |
Bbfan05 | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 02:03 pm     did the HGs win Burger King for the week from the Food Competition? |
Scorpiomoon | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 02:06 pm     I've been having Internet problems all day. I missed the food comp. Can someone give me a brief update on what happened? |
Konamouse | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 02:12 pm     Food Comp: Capture parachutes with food items attached. This competition was similar to the tennis balls from last year. Yes, Burger King was easily a won item (duh, they are a major sponsor). Tons of different food items with BK for lunch every day (breakfast if they keep to their traditional sleeping/eating schedules). |
Scorpiomoon | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 02:49 pm     Konamouse: Thank you so very, very much! I was dying to know! |
Konamouse | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 03:38 pm     It was funny how the HG responded to hearing about the BK while Dana read the food comp instructions. These guys sounded like they were still asleep. I was NOT surprised to see a FOTH and then Dana re-reading the instructions with a much louder and more boistrous reaction from the HG when the "special" red and gold parachute was announced (the BK for lunch). It was even funnier how much they went out of their way to comment about "catching Burger King" and when they were announcing their captures, every time BK was mentioned, the HG would cheer. Guess they know where their bread is buttered. You can bet that the second version of Dana's instructions will be what is aired on tv tomorrow night. 'squeek' |
Gidget | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 04:15 pm     Thank you Konamouse. I'll probably start Sunday after laying in supplies. I can have honey, butter and spices, no? I'm not sure about the bread. Since I often take food with me I may allow myself English Muffins, less fragile. Seriously I have been trying to lose weight. I did Atkins for awhile and it works very well but I can't live without my carbs. And free rein is not working well either. I love PB&J and it is something I can nibble instead of inhaling so this should be interesting. |
Spunky | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 06:14 pm     When is the POV? |
Abby7 | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 06:54 pm     I was up late last night reading the controversial thread about Erica's "korean statement". It took all my will power not to post in that thread (actually haven't posted this season at all until now). Today, I thought I would put in my 2 cents (after thinking about it for days). Now I can't find that thread. Anyone know what happened to it? |
Whit4you | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 06:57 pm     After an incredible amount of patience by the mods they apprently decided to archive it Abby.. check the archive area. If you'd still like to discuss the issue though try posting to the "News and Views thread" in the main TVCH area |
Abby7 | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:03 pm     Thank you Whit for the response. I haven't stopped thinking about that thread all day. In a way, I'm glad I didn't post in it...in another way I feel like I acted like a "zombie" by not replying. It's just that the thread got me in a mood where I didn't feel "up to" giving my response in an adult manner. I was so angered by some of the responses. So, I guess, it's better I kept my mouth shut. |
Draheid | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:07 pm     Actually Abby7, the thread was renamed and relocated in to the News & Views area. You can click on the title here:
Racism Discussion (Formerly about Erika's BB Comment) |
Whit4you | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:10 pm     (wnodering to self..whatever happened to the Dra/polygamy thread I started) Dra - is there ANYTHING you don't have an answer too??? When do I start my next period Mr. Answer To Everything (figuring you could have answered this last year based on my mood's in my 100 posts a day here.. doubt you could answer it this year though since my posts are too sporadic LOL!) Oh and ^5 mods... great move and renaming of topic, I don't always agree with the tight mod standards here but I am beyond impressed with the handling of this one. WTG - I'm all for tripling your salary... LOL

Abby7 | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:20 pm     Thank you Draheid. (So, when if I decide to post on THAT thread and I "lose it"...can I blame it all on you? just kidding). Whit4you: No, I don't think there is ANYTHING draheid doesn't know. I have told not only dh about draheid but others (who don't visit this site). THEY are even amazed by him! |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:32 pm     About what time will the POV contest be tomorrow? Anybody know? |
Hamsterlady | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:40 pm     Another question, what is Jun making for dinner right now? I know it has to do with shrimp...but and I guess this is a second question. What's taking so long with it? |
Maris | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:45 pm     she is also doing steak tips which are currently marinating in steaksauce, oregano, water, sugar, parsley.... She is also making a pasta. |
Costacat | Thursday, July 24, 2003 - 07:47 pm     Costacat waves madly at Abby7!! Hey girl! Long time! Oh, wait, this is the complaint thread. Costacat wants to complain that Abby's been gone a long time! |
