I don't think you can count the yellow chairs. After certain periods, BB always removes extra furniture. The chairs around the table are removed, the table is replaced with one smaller, the couches/chairs in the living room are removed/replaced. This happens naturally during the course of the game as the number of HGs remaining in the house becomes less and less. As long as there is an equal number of yellow chairs to houseguests, that probably isn't something that applies to this "game" or whatever.

Ot, but I also think Jack is not campaigning because Jeebert think he is staying and have reassured him.

Jack's no dope. He knows the votes rest with the girls and he can see them both with Erika. He's not the stooges. The stooges may be blinded by their own ambitions, but I think Jack has a pretty good idea that he's going. The stooges may be surprised by the vote on Wed., but I don't think they'll be any great shocked look on Jack's face.

In his final statemnet, I won't be surprised if he says something about how if there's any justice in the "world that is BB" that it will be him going and not Erika. I'm still a big believer in Jack's moral highroad.

Besides, he's probably thinking his chances of publishing his JFK book are now pretty good and that's a bigger prize than the $500K BB is offering.

Is it just me, or has that first photo been modified? When blown up full screen, it looks like the entire left half was just pasted in. The angles appear to be off.

Unfortunately for Jack, there really is not much of a market for a book about a non-conspiracy. Unless he has new stuff (and I doubt it because it has been so overwritten).

It has been modified crossfire, because it came off of the CBS Site house tour that uses a 360 degree camera or something like that to show the panaramic shots of the room. Def. makes for some distortion.

OK, that helps. Something was just not sitting well with me flipping between the two, making comparisons. :)

Tobor, we're coming up to the 40th anniverasry of JFK's assassination in a few more months. Jack is now a known quantity who has shown himself to America as someone who can be trusted. He may be seen by many as a liberal with an inside take on the whole conspiracy theory.

I've never believed in the lone gunman or magic bullet theory, but am willing to read Jack's investigation and resulting theories with an open mind. The timing is certainly right.

I hate to tell Jack, but a huge JFK book was released not long ago.. in fact last night, not knowing he had written a JFK book I was thinking that Jack's wife should sent it to him whenever he hits the sequester house.. although Jack loves talking to Justin, he'll have Dana attached to him like a barnacle and he likes talking to Nate.. but having a good book would be helpful too.

Amazon currently appears to offer 206 JFK books. It is an amazingly overdone subject. I can't imagine that the world is really hanging on the edge of their seat for another.

I was about to say that getting published will be next to impossible, but whoever wrote #206 seems to have pulled it off, why not Jack? I just can't imagine the sales are all that great individually.

OK- Ali just said that Jee took the stool. Is that what she really thinks?
She also just mention the X- and marbles from a bowl. I think I am lost.
I know the whole concept of things going missing during lockdowns- and Jee is not telling everything he has noticed. What is Ali's story.

what is the current list of missing items? have the hg's figured out why these things have disappeared?

Well the most recent book is written by a guy who had access to all sorts of tapes ant notes and interviewed an amazing number of people.. over 800 pages..

"Cutting through the haze of distortions and myths which have encased the John F. Kennedy Legacy, An Unfinished Life sets the historical record straight. Granted speial access to a treasure trove of new documents, Robert Dallek tells the story of Kennedy's dazzling life with scholarly detachment, shrewd analysis, and pitch-perfect prose. An Unfinished Life is hands down the best biography of JFK - the American president and icon who refuses to fade away. A truly remarkable achievement."

Probably not the best time for a new one. Just saying.. but I'd bet Jack would love this; I did and I'm not quite the JFK-worshhipper that he is.

i'm confused. i thought this thread was about the missing items from the house not about Jack and the JFK book.

This is what I have as a list of missing Items - but I have been away for a couple hours - can someoen fill me on what I have missed because the girls seem to think there is an even number:

Bar Stool (along wall)
Yellow Chair (around table - was 8 - now 7)
Bathroom Stool (was two - now one)
Duck (from tub)
Clock (over Sink)
X (from living room)
Shells (tub area)

Something about marbles and a mirror as well.

They talked about a mirror earlier today and it was taken away for a reason several days ago I think (as soon as one girl said it another said 'no').

I heard the marbles but never heard if it was a certainty.

The girls discussed 2 items from each area - I just can't make it work.

Amanda's picture, Ryn.

The mirror wasn't by the back door. It was over between the 2 windows I think. I am not sure if it is missing or not.

sbw - one of them said a Mirror was missing (yes - between 2 windows) - then another girl said they took that out a couple or few days ago.

DUH - I had Amanda's pic but deleted it by accident!!! Thanks:

Bar Stool (along wall)
Yellow Chair (around table - was 8 - now 7)
Bathroom Stool (was two - now one)
Duck (from tub)
Clock (over Sink)
X (from living room)
Shells (tub area)
Amanda's Pic (Hall - Kitchen?)

Possibly missing?
Some marbles from near the X??
A Mirror? (I heard someone say 'no' - correct me if I am wrong)

Cinder, Ali told the other girls that Jee & Robert told her to spread it around that Jee took the stool to fix it and Robert took the X. The guys are trying to throw Jun, Jack & Erika off the trail. Well not Jack, he still hasn't seemed to miss anything.

Ohhh - and something I heard for myself that I have not verified... Ali/Jun think that BB added a lamp in the living room(I heard this around 5 or 5:15 BB time). Any news on this?

I haven't checked my screen caps to see if there was originally one.

I wonder if that gnome will disappear? The cam was concentrating on it earlier today. But it seems like that would be an odd item to take, since I think they each got to take one gnome.

There was a mirror next to BY door . Now it seems to be gone. You can see the mirror as well as the bowl of blue marbles (was on the same shelf as the x originally) in the CBS site house tour pics.

I took vidcaps of these items from the CBS site and they can be found in this thread if you click on the archived pages above. The mirror is on the most recently archived page above. The other pics are on the 2nd page.

I think it's a simpler comp than you think..

BB will have all the missing items in front of the hgs and tells them to run and put them where they were before. Those who do it in the shortest time and in the exact place win... for a tiebreaker, they'll quiz them on something...

(thank you, and LOL, and Jun was talking about yellow marbles before.)

yes, the mirror is missing, someone said that over at jok*** that stuff has been disappearing for days, now.
And the girls where talking about "keeping a pile of clothes" somewhere so the guys don't notice a vase, or missing vase....anyone catch that?

But since they where talking earlier about hiddening some items, just to trick the guys.
And
Ali was talking about how she got into trouble with BB by "saying something, and talking too loud" but didn't say what.....
I'm wondering if BB busted them on the plan to hide stuff .....?

When G was eating in the HOH, and they had an outside lockdown, he was thinking that he left the hoh door locked, and it was unlocked, so maybe something is missing outa there ??

In the past week, Jack was telling Erika how his memeory was effected by the pb&j diet, and how he was having problems remembering things that happened in the days before.
So maybe hes noticed a few things missing, but just thinks hes losing his mind ? poor guy..

And the guys still didn't notice the duck..
