From what I understand, Dan was loosely affiliated with that alliance. So why piss him off when you can put up someone completely against your alliance who would be gunning for you anyway?

I think Michelle made the right move. Now the question is if she should target Keesha or Libra. It's pretty clear that Keesha is stronger in the house than Libra, but who wants to live with Libra for a minute more than they have to?

And WTH is up with Libra? Is she really as horrible as they make her seem on the show? What kind of mother leaves her 6 month old babies alone for 3 months?

I just find it weird how the HoH now has no accountability amongst these houseguests this season. If you put one of my allies on the block, and they go home, if I'm HoH, I'm putting that HoH on the block ASAP.

Now, if Michelle was rational enough to concoct this plan to backdoor April, then I'm okay with it.

It's weird how Ollie has truly flown under the radar. Do the other houseguests have no clue as to how much he and April are bumping uglies?

For Libra, it's all about the benjamins.

I can not stand Jerry. He acts like a 13 year old schoolgirl. I'm pulling for Memphis, Renny or Dan.

If Michelle and them believe that Dan is America's Player, and they know this game, they should rationalize that the vote was out of his hands. They wouldnt be sure, but they would have to give him the benefit of the doubt. They could still not trust him or whatever but they could stop all this your gonna burn in hell crap. They would also have to take into consideration what a douche America thinks Jesse is.

How come I havent heard half that "in the news" stuff?

When Dan was called out on his vote, I didn't understand why he just didn't say "Hey, I am not aligned with that other team; at the end of the day I just happened to like Memphis better than Jesse and I couldn't justify voting him out of the house." That would have sounded more honest and made him seem like a stand-up guy and not in any part of a alliance.

That question about China discovering a way to prevent rain made me go Can anyone post a link to that news story? That really shocked me that was "in the news". I can't find anything about that.

I was surprised they didn't make up a story about a terrorist attack or something.

The stories I read and heard (http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/acde4f9a-6...0779fd18c.html) sound nothing like the preposterous one they aired. In fact, China's rainmaking (& stopping) is all based on U.S. methods, so why would we want to buy it back?

It seems I'm asking the same question as last Big Brother, but where do they get these vile people from? Maybe 3 or 4 are/have been OK, but the rest are just disgusting repugnant forms of life. Jerry is the latest on the list for me, his comments about Dan and his religion are just sickening. On the positive note, Renny has jumped up a bit for me (perhaps because everyone else has gone down). So I guess Dan, Memphis and Renny are my favorites, the rest are just dirty inside and out.

I just posted, and now I read your comment. I'm glad to see someone who agrees. May you have a wonderful week.

So Jerry makes a big deal earlier in the season about not wearing any military gear when he stabs his alliance member in the back but he can't understand why Dan would take his cross off?

Eh, China and Russia (and to a lesser extent, the US) have been seeding clouds for 50 years. There's not a lot of scientific proof that it definitively works, but it seems to do something. China's plan was to seed any clouds heading to Beijing before they got to the games.


One of the outside people mentioned that the story about the fake earthquake was false and that the earthquake was one of the most distructive in the history of LA. They agreed that the earthquake was real, and when Brian announced they were right, they started jumping up and down and cheering.

Yeah! Most destructive earthquake ever!

And both of them are ignorant as to what constitutes faith in something. They put too much importance on their outward appearances (military gear or a cross) while on the inside they are deceiving themselves and others.

I pretty much agree, and the funny thing is that all three of these made bad first impressions on me.

I still laugh every time they show "Mixologist" in quotes, though.

It doesn't bother me that either feels that way about there faith in whatever it is. Fine if they think taking something off lets them off the hook. However they don't have to make a big deal about it. No one would have notice that Jerry wasn't wearing his military gear if he didn't tell everyone, same with Dan. Just do it, don't broadcast it and look for approval.

April does have culpability. Michelle just recognizes that April didn't want Jessie to go home and that she is not gunning for her. If the HOH contest turned out differently, Libra would have nominated Michelle this week. She also probably would have been Keesha's replacement nom if she had one. Michelle would be about the last person April or Ollie would put up next week.

Ollie has not gone unnoticed per se'. Expect to see him and April on the block together at some point in the not too distant future.

I've only seen the first few minutes of last night's show, but I'm so sick of hearing these fucking morons throw around the words "respect" and "disrespect."

Shut the hell up already.

I second that. It's a game. They all know it's a game. They all talk about playing the game. All of them will lie and stab someone in the back before it's over ... and be BFFs by the final show, of course.

They talk about it because they use the lack of respect as justification for game moves (nomination, POV usage, etc). It's the social component that bad players lack when they can't bring themselves to kiss butt (Memphis/Stephen) and act fake-happy (Apirl) when certain people win HoH.

After these past few weeks, I'm not sure if my hatred for Renny has decreased or my hatred for others has increased, but she doesn't bother me much at all now. Now most of my ill feelings are aimed at Jerry. I can't imagine having to spend 24 hours a day locked in a house with him.

Three of the most overused terms on BB

Respect, Disrespect and Threat

YOU ASSHOLES everyone is a threat, your job is to eliminate the impending threats and keep the long term threats.

AND HOW THE FUCK has NO ONE mentioned that Ollie-April is the most dangerous aspect in the game, a lock 2 vote combo?

Are these people crazy?

And don't forget "Under the bus" (or "UTB", as my wife and I have taken to calling it, as in "Uh oh, Dan's going UTB").

Why do I feel like the house will find a way to vote out Keesha, if she goes home there will be no women left worth looking at in house.

Keesha is so full of shit. What actually set Libra off at the dinner table was Keesha BSing April. That's why she wanted to talk to Ollie and April (which they didn't show) individually afterwards.

As for April being fake and stirring shit up, the thing that Keesha is talking about was April confronting Libra and Keesha about things that Jessie actually said he overheard. She didn't make anything up. That all aired on last week's show. She is fake, but she's not quite as fake as Keesha, and Keesha is jealous of her. Just like she was jealous of Angie.

Michelle didn't believe that Libra wasn't the one organizing votes anyway. Too bad we missed out on her pounding and chucking and yelling at the top of her lungs at the pillows outside the HOH room.

Oh...and Jerry is a colossal douche...too bad Dan promised his work that he wouldn't get in any verbal altercations in the house b/c I would love for him to ask Jerry where Brian is at the next time the "colonel" gets on his high horse.

It's worse to leave the 4 year old she has as well. All in all it's not that big of a deal in my book. Infants don't do crap. What exactly are you missing?

Well, according to Michelle, Libra has the smartest kids in the world ... since she passed up the chance to get a letter from them. That 6-month-old infant is a genius!

Please tell me you're being sarcastic.
