Luke | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:23 pm  IN A SECOND... Whoever it is... be it myself or one of you... I would like for some of us to have more time in this house... this is a great experience... although selfishly, I would want it for myself, I would also enjoy getting to know more about you all...even from the outside looking in... And this place is the perfect setting for that... |
Moondance | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:31 pm  I agree with Luke ... still though banishment/nominations suck! I have potty mouth tonight I may check out and let you guys talk... Love you! |
Luke | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:34 pm  love you lots, dear mooon!! what about you, roger? would you like to stay in the house longer? |
Roger_Ramjet | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:35 pm  "Suck" is potty mouth??? Shit! Ooops! Well, I guess if you sucked enough then you'd have........nope! I'm not going to finish!! Nope, not going to! Moon, you are more than welcome to stay and chat!! The more the better, as long as you want to. Please feel welcome to stay!!!! |
Roger_Ramjet | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:38 pm  You bet!! So far the nominations haven't bothered me. I don't think I'd ever let me. More thn worth the return price!!!!! Hey, anyone one figured out what they will do to reward challange??? It's due at banishment time! |
Luke | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:39 pm  This sucks... I had a concert I really wanted to go to on Friday evening... I'm not sure I'll be able to go if banishment night is then... Maybe I'll email host and see if there are other alternatives... I wouldn't want to come back from the concert and find out that I'm banished, and not even have had the chance to say goodbye! |
Roger_Ramjet | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:49 pm  Anyone around?? saw your post Luke--didn't have a real response other than to agree is sucks. |
Luke | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:53 pm  yeah, I'm still around, Roger... I've been working on one doozie of a redroom for today... Kinda talking about each of you... for some reason, I'm not so confident I may survive this round of banishments... |
Roger_Ramjet | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:56 pm  Luke, I bet money, if everyone was completely honest, no one would say they were confident about banishment day! And it's all 5 of us--votes will be spread out thin, so a few % points can mean lots!!!! No guarentees on this one!!!! |
Luke | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:58 pm  Look roger... since I'll be back at work tomorrow (yuck), i'll be online even more... i want to formulate some good questions for you... for everyone, actually, but questions that would give a deeper insight into everyone... of course, with the understanding that the person answering is always in control of what limitations they will put on responding... But i think i'll call it a night on that note, and hopefully i'll have thought of some good stuff that I can post in the morning, and you can answer as the day progresses... Kewl, my friend? |
Roger_Ramjet | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 11:02 pm  That works for me Luke! I look forward to your questions. We shall see each other tomorrow---sleep well with that flu you have!! |
Luke | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 11:03 pm  Good night Roger, mi amigo...! |
Roger_Ramjet | Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 11:04 pm  Good night friend |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 01:46 am  <I sit in the quietness of our living room. A palce of bonding, a place of conflict, a place that is ours. Everyone is asleep, so I talk at a normal voice, thinking outload to myself.> Tomorrow is our last full day together. Friday will be banishment day, and that will weigh heavy on BGs. BB HGs talked of staying in contact after getting out. It appears some will and some will not. We have talked of keeping in contact when we get out. There is no question in my mind that I will keep in contact with every sinlge one that wishes to do so with me. I've tried to pay attention a we've gone along as to what we have done (and not done). I still don't have my arms around it fully, even thinking of it all day and night long since we have started. For however people think Host has done picking people, I can safely say you can all lay your concerns to rest. However it was done, the deed was done well. For the most part we do not pay attention to all the cameras and microphones that direct our every move to the folks outside our place. During all the times we interact, we border on not playing a game. We are creating relationships and have been for awhile now. Maybe that is the secret to the game....not as George thought, to leave arm-in-arm...but to stay arm-in-arm, playing the game out to it's natural conclusion and at the same time getting to know each other like we never thought possible in any other setting. Have we shown ourselves to the people outside to the degree they are wanting/expecting?? Only they can answer that, and I am sure are doing just that. I remember the days of BB well. More importantly to us, are we showing ourselves to each other in here to the degree wanted/expected?? In listening to the others, it would seem so. I concur with that. Moon says we are becoming a family. I observe we are becoming something close to that concept, although we didn't start out together like a family does. Maybe that makes us even closer...for us to decide in time. Are we the hamsters, are the folks outside watching us the hamsters, or are we all hamsters, just performing different hamster tricks--doing different hamster dances?? I take it the outside world sees all of our RR posts. For those who have taken the time to read this, don't go looking for my 10/25 RR conversation with Gator--you've just seen it. To us hamsters--one and all. |
Himay10ns | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 05:09 am  Good morning everyone...I wake up to find the meanie banner from Affinity. I guess my little cabana boy didn't realize it was JUST TRUTH OR DARE!!! He must be pretty upset about the food sex with Roger!! Well, no one on the outside can realize what we've been through. I believe I've stayed true to myself and to Affinity, as well. Perhaps the banner is just another lie! I'll find out soon enough. <whispering to Affinity....hang in there my sweet friend, I'll be home soon....> |
Himay10ns | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 07:33 am  Luke, I overheard you talking to the Internet Camera!! You gave me the greatest idea.... I sometimes get frustrated because there is no one around during the day, to the point that I created an imaginary friend yesterday. I think what I'll do today is just type some information about myself in the living....you guys can read it when you have time and ask me questions tonight. That will give you an idea of what my hobbies and interests are and it will tell you about my life.... Thanks for the great idea.... |
Vykin | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 07:55 am  Roger just read your post, by the way, I don't think there's anything to stop us from posting our redrooms in the house as far as I know. Regarding your post, I guess I tend to be more of a realist, I see us as a group of real people at keyboards across north american, who for a time in our lives, are hopefully having fun. If lessons are learned, then its been worth it. There should always be lessons learned. I, myself, have said before that I keep my real life private. Being a Player in this game, I have to say is the first time I have shared so extensively about parts of my real life. Whether its a good or bad choice, time will tell. But at the end of the day, this is a game, we are all playing a game and this too shall pass into memory lane. Just thought I'd share my thoughts if I was in the LR when you were speaking. |
Himay10ns | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 07:56 am  By the way, I emailed Host to see if we would be allowed to post any more pics and I never got an answer. My original pic was a cheesey glamour shot. I wish I could post a candid shot....oh well.... |
Vykin | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 08:07 am  Lol Himays I like cheese! Luke my friend I just spotted your post about thinking u may be out this round. Hey, remember this, I have no doubt there is a whole big "Cartel of Vykin Haters" out there that have a machine gun loaded with bullets engraved with my name. I think lukester, I, will be the "Dead Man Walking" |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 08:20 am  Morning everyone, just checking in.....things look like they are going to be insane today, so I'll pop in as time allows. Let's have a great day today. |
Himay10ns | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 08:49 am  PART ONE Well, I'll start from the beginning. I was born in Selma, Alabama in 1963. I have moved over 47 times in my life. I've lived in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina, Texas and Virginia. I completed high school in North Carolina in 1981 and completed college at the University of Alabama in 1985. After college, I moved to Dallas for three years, San Antonio for three years, Alabama for five years, Biloxi for one year and I've been in Little Rock for 3 1/2 years. My father is a retired three star general in the Air Force and my parents live on the beach in Biloxi. I have one younger sister who is married with two kids and she lives in San Antonio. I have never been married but was engaged once in 1996. I've worked in Clinic Administration for 8 years and Hospital Administration for 7. I live alone with my 13 year old cat, Levi. As I've stated in here before, he is suffering from male mammary cancer (hemoangiosarcoma) and the vet thinks he won't live much longer. We did surgery in June to remove most of the tumors but they didn't get it all and the tumors have all grown back. My vet says he's too old for chemotherapy and he advised me against it. He is the ONLY pet I've ever had in my entire life so his death is going to be extremely hard for me. He is my best buddy and I am taking advantage of the time we have left. My apartment is in the historic district of Little Rock across the street from a new Art Center. It has hardwood floors, high ceilings, lots of windows, a fireplace, an antique bathtub with claw feet and a newly remodeled kitchen with a big gas stove. In February of 2001, I will be totally DEBT FREE and I plan on buying my first home. I already have a lot and houseplan picked out in a lovely new neighborhood here in LR. |
Himay10ns | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 08:53 am  PART TWO I work for the Medical School here in Little Rock managing a large Orthopaedic, Rheumatology, and Physical Medicine Clinic. We see over 25,000 patients per year. I have 24 employees, 25 resident physicians and 11 attending doctors. I love my job! I have the greatest staff and I am proud to have them as co-workers. My hobbies include decorating my home, cooking, and traveling. This year, I've been to Disneyworld, Washington DC and Hilton Head, SC. The most important thing to know about me is that I have the most incredible family. My parents and sister are my best friends in the whole world. We are such a close knit group and holidays and visits are so much fun! I am also fortunate to have a great group of girlfriends from high school that I have kept in touch with for 20 years. We meet every summer for a "Girl's Weekend". These are my closest friends and I know that they would do anything for me and I would do anything for them. Here's an example: As I said above, I was engaged in March of 1996 and was supposed to be married on Novemer 16, 1996. My fiance and I called the wedding off in July. Even though it was a mutual decision, I was devastated by the break up. All of my high school friends were set to be bridesmaids. One night in September of 1996, several of them called me and said..."What are you doing on November 16th??" I was surprised by the question and almost hurt!! Then they said...."Well, we've deciced we want to fly you to Myrtle Beach, SC and we will meet you there and spend the entire weekend by your side." I can't tell you guys how much that meant to me. They are the greatest six women I've ever known. At 6:30PM on November 16, 1996, when I was supposed to be walking down the aisle, we were all having dinner together in a great restaurant at the beach. At the end of the meal, I picked up the dinner tab and thanked the girls and told them that I loved them. We were all sobbing!! The waiter didn't know what to do with us!! I will NEVER forget that act of kindness. I don't know how I would have made it through that weekend without them. Well, I appreciate you taking the time to read through this. I hope that gives you a bigger window into my soul. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I love you guys .....May |
Roger_Ramjet | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 08:55 am  So, that 240ZX will be paid off???? That's great! For me, all I've gotten is the first year of the loan taken care of for my car. 5 more years to go! Your place sound really nice. Looking forward to more of your life's imformation. |
Moondance | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 09:22 am  Thanks for sharing May!... Glad you have such a great support group... most important thing we can have! Love to Levi Kitty Morning All! |
Luke | Thursday, October 26, 2000 - 09:45 am  Good Morning everyone...! Wow... what a story May.. It's people like that who touch your lives that really make you believe in the good things--love, kindness, joy... Even though we may get down with our lives, our situations, our relationships, all our shit... people like those, I believe, are placed in our lives for a very special purpose--to bring us back home to a realization that we were meant to love and to be loved. Thank you for that, May... you just brightened up my day! |
