Crossfire | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:31 pm     That sounds like a plan, I was just going to suggest the same thing Seamonkey. |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:43 pm     Sending from my Shaw mail now.... |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:45 pm     Ok...this time I didn't get an undeliverable message because I took the formating out of the text. (Note though I sent 3 times from Shaw once with a word attachment and got message undeliverable.) |
Seamonkey | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:47 pm     THis is really bizarre.. but I'm betting it has something to do with the sobig virus, measures being taken, etc.. |
Seamonkey | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:49 pm     I've gotten several emails from comcast, aol, classmates.com in the last few minutes tho. |
Mizinvanccouver | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:51 pm     Well you should be getting one from me as it wasn't returned to me. tolzmann@shaw.ca Ever since I got this new computer I can't compose or reply in my Hotmail but if I use someone elses computer I can. Strange eh? |
Seamonkey | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 12:54 pm     Strange and frustrating.. Nothing yet.. am watching the HG with all their new clothes.. Ali has already said the word "borrow" |
Seamonkey | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 01:25 pm     NOthing at all.. how strange.. I really think it might be best to put it in this thread and have one of us scoop and run over to the Jun thread. I haven't revisited that since I posted. |
Mich | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 05:06 pm     Does anyone know if there have been show suggestions/comments on message boards that have shown up on the show for any of the bb's 1-4? I'm trying to figure out if any bb producers actually wonder or care what viewers are posting? |
Seanflynn2003 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 12:11 pm     Today's LA Times has a longer article about Reality Show contestants breaking into show business. I'll give the link, but the upshot is apart from a couple American Idol winners and a bit of other minor celebrity, it doesn't happen. Also BB is never even mentioned. http://www.calendarlive.com/services/site/premium/access-premium-1.intercept |
Gidget | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 12:20 pm     A few weeks ago a few people responded to my request about how to pronounce a Scottish word. If someone on the board has the knowledge, could you please tell me if Irish Gaelic and Scottish Gaelic are understood by each other. I know they are different but are they similar enough for mutual understanding? I want to learn but do not have time for both. |
Beruthiel | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 12:41 pm     The Scots were an Irish tribe that moved over to Scotland at about the same time that the Anglo-Saxons were invading England. I know Welsh Gaelic is different from the other two, but not enough about them to say how close they are to each other. I'd say they're different languages now, since English and German have been separated by the same amount of time, and look how different they are! Actually, if you do a quick search and find an all languages dictionary, you can search a few words and see how they compare. Another way is to go to the Ask Jeeves site, or try a search on Google. I'm of Irish heritage, and grew up just south of the border with Scotland, and I still can't answer you with certainty, sorry! |
Smokey | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 12:59 pm     POV Meeting--I know it's today, but did it happen yet and did or did not Jee use it? I am guessing he won't, but still wondered how the meeting went. Thanks for any info! |
Starr | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:02 pm     The meeting was a lil while ago..he didnt use it.. |
Gidget | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:18 pm     Thank you Beruthiel. I left a message in your box. It's funny you use the example of English/German. I work for a German company and I hear it all the time tho I don't ken a word. And I am part Dutch. Shameful. |
Ryn | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:22 pm     starr - are you sure? diesn't seem like it was more than 5 minute if it happened. |
Ryn | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:24 pm     Mich - YES!!! Well - comments anyways. Comments in Lisa's fan mail area from this board were used last year on the show when they showed the HGs things that were said about them. |
Starr | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:29 pm     Yes im sure I heard ali an robert talking about it as they were going into the back yard an jun said so predicitible.. an they was talking about his speech...something about back door... |
Starr | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 01:30 pm     also he appoligized to jack an erika for having to do it over because he messed up.. |
Denimore | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 02:05 pm     why is Ali eating a salad on the live feeds right now? |
Jmm | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 02:11 pm     Denimore, I believe she is the HG that Jee chose to share his McDonalds meal with today. |
Denimore | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 02:14 pm     thankyou, didn't know they could share. I was thinking maybe there was something to her being pregnant and BB was giving her real food |
Beruthiel | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 03:18 pm     You're welcome, Gidget! I decided to go to Google and see what would come up, and all I entered was the word Gaelic, and the first item was the perfect site for you! It has an area that compares the two Gaelics, and all sorts of helpful stuff. I didn't even bother looking at the other links since the first one was so apt, but I was glad to see that my first suggestion was okay, LOL! Here's the address to the area of the site that talks about the different Gaelics, and there's another link on that page with actual word comparisons: Gaelic language I hope I did it right so that you can click directly! Once you're there, you should be able to link around to other relevant sites too. Good luck!  |
Beruthiel | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 03:23 pm     Great, it works!  |
Marej | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 03:48 pm     In a recent interview; Arnie & Allison said they have production people who read these and other boards. Do you think those people are telling A&A how MANY people are saying how boring, etc. BB has become? I guess the ratings are OK and money talks and we don't matter. |
