Hi y’all!
Well, I wasn’t planning on posting until after the veto comp but its looks like they won’t be holding the competition until later tonight. (Actually, it started while I was typing this post — LMB) Apparently, the BB construction crew has been working out in the back yard for a good couple of hours so I’ll definitely be curious to see what they were building.
So, here’s how the house stands right now:
After the Battle of the Block, Nicole is now the HoH. Zach and Jocasta have been nominated for eviction. If Zach doesn’t win the power of veto, there seems to be a pretty good chance that he’ll be the one going home. It’s not so much that he’s a strong player as much as he managed to tick everyone off last week. Some of Zach’s fans on twitter are convinced that Zach’s fall from grace is totally the result of Team America manipulating him into acting like a jerk. There’s some truth to that but then again, Team America wouldn’t have necessarily attempted to manipulate Zach if not for the fact that Zach had given them plenty of reasons to suspect that he could easily be convinced to act like a jerk.
So, Zach has to win this veto if he wants to stay in the house. And he may have a chance of doing just that because the other players competing for the veto are: Nicole, Christine, Jocasta, Caleb, and Victoria. Jocasta and Victoria have already proven themselves to be pretty much of a nonfactor when it comes to winning competitions. (Victoria did win the POV once but that was largely due to Caleb.) So, really, all Zach has to do is beat Nicole, Christine, and Caleb.
If the veto is used, Nicole seems to be pretty determined to nominate Frankie as a replacement. What’s interesting about this is that Frankie doesn’t seem to realize that he’s in danger of going up on the block. Frankie instead seems to think that Donny will go up as the replacement nominee.
But, whether Frankie realizes it or not, the house has really started to turn against him. Not only are his fellow HGs realizing that Frankie is too big of a player to be left in the house but he’s also been showing off a nasty sense of entitlement. Last night, despite no longer being HoH, he still decided that he would spend the night sleeping in the HoH room without asking Nicole beforehand. This, more than anything, seems to have turned Nicole against Frankie.
So, if Jocasta wins the veto or if the veto is not used, Zach will probably go home. Even if he’s sitting next to Frankie, chances are that Zach has burned so many bridges that the HGs will still vote him out before voting out a stronger player.
If Zach wins the veto, it’s a bit harder to predict what will happen. Derrick has hinted that he would prefer to keep Frankie around, even to the extent that he would go against the HoH and campaign against Jocasta. Zach, undoubtedly, would vote to keep Frankie. As far as the Detonators are concerned, Cody and Christine are the two wildcards in that situation. Would Donny vote to evict a fellow member of Team America? Has Caleb figured out that Frankie is not his ally? These are all relevant questions but, in the end, I get the feeling Frankie would end up being the one evicted. He’s too strong of a player not to be a target and the house is definitely turning against him.
We’ll know more soon because, even as I type this, they are playing for the veto!
Lisa Marie
Lisa Marie, great job.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I only want to add that nic and Donny went up to the hoh room I guess they got word that the pov was about to start and nic wanted to freshen up and talk to Donny. Good thing they did not say anything that was a matter of importance, cause out comes Frankie from the hoh bathroom. nic has such a look on her face, and when Frankie left she told Donny I need to start locking that door. She was not happy about it at all,
Also, seems chris told nic that hayden want to keep vic cause he loves her etc etc
nic could not wait to get hayden alone he said no way, nic is so pissed at chris, she said I do not know who I want out more Frankie or chris. nic also told hayden chris did not mention frankies name to be a re nom, nic said that seals it she is with them, getting good

Annie…..Don’t worry. I couldn’t stop if I wanted to!!lol We were tired as we had been out of town all day. Been keeping my eye on my cell the whole time. But I checked Jokers before I got my LFS set up and I know what happened. One of the bloggers there mistook Vic’s last victory for today’s because it gets very confusing when the LFs are supposedly DOWN. They just show clips of past LFS and unless you happen to see Jeff, you don’t always know if it is LIVE or MEMOREX!!!lol Anyone remember that?? I just dated myself…lol
swt…..well, it’s good to know it’s not just me!! I have been having trouble with my audio and can’t figure out why . Also can’t get Youtube clips to work on FB. So I kind of assumed it was me!! Seriously tho, I have had trouble submitting posts since the beginning of the season. I did ask Lisa Marie once but I don’t think she saw it and I decided not to make a big deal out of it. But it is frustrating! Especially if you are impatient like US!lol Years ago, I did that one night when it was busy on here, and I think I got like 10 copies of my post!! I learned my lesson after that.. Hit once and WAIT!!!lol
Speaking of WAITING…..still doing so. BBAD starts in like 17 mins. Are they going to be still going then???? Timing doesn’t seem to be Production’s strong suite…lol

Hmmm..LFS still off……Cody, Donny, Hayden in HOH. They didn’t play in the Veto, but neither did Derrick and I don’t see him. Otherwise, that would be all of the HGS that did NOT play Veto. But WHY would they be locked down in the HOH room??? Derrick just walked in.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------They are all talking about how long it has been since the POV stared and going WOW!!! So apparently, it is still going on but they didn’t get to watch?? This is all unprecedented..and very WEIRD!!! And driving me Cray-Cray…lol ARGHHH!!!!

It’s great that Nic is finally seeing the truth in this game if you can call it that. I hope she kicks some a$$ and takes names. Would love to see if she can get Frankie out or Zach, maybe both.
Annie, chafed butt: good one and it wouldn’t suprise me – hilarious!

I think this might be one of those timed/alone events… Still taking forever!
Derrick and Cody seem to be on to something… They think Hayden and Nicole are playing them trying to dwindle Detonator numbers. I think they are off in that assumption, but they are onto the fact that if they let Zach or Frankie go this week, the numbers favor the “other side” — Hayden, Nicole, Donny, Jocasta versus Derrick, Cody, Caleb, Zach/Frankie with Victoria as the swing vote… Safest bet for their games is to boot Jocasta just to keep a numbers advantage.
Christine told Nicole Hayden made out with Victoria (lie) and he would keep Victoria over Nicole… Christine, are you trying to get yourself on the block?? Bad move..
TTFN!

Hi, everyone!
Star — As far as the site running slow is concerned, I’ve recently noticed that as well. I’m not sure why and I’m also not sure why some of you guys are randomly getting sent to moderation. It does sometimes seem that it takes forever for some of my comments to post but, again, I’m not sure why. It could be a server issue. I usually try to check-in pretty regularly so I can get people out of moderation as quickly as possible.
Tendr — I think Guardians is good for kids and adults. There’s maybe two instances of “bad” language in the film and there’s a few racy jokes but they’ll go right over a five year-old’s head. 🙂
Veto is still going on. I can’t wait to find out who won. 🙂

I can hear voices bleeding thru onto BBAD, but I Don’t hink the guys in HOH can. I think it was Zach’s voice and he was asking how many pieces there were supposed to be.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I am still hearing them, just hard to hear what they are saying exactly. Sounds like shouting tho. Since they seem to be talking to soemone, i wonder if they were in teams. This is just Bizzarro, dude!!!lol

Poor Nicole…she really wanted to make a big move. And she was already mad at Christine…I’m sure this won’t help mend their friendship any!!!
Everyone is talking all at once so it’s hard to here what the comp was. They have BB Comics on their T-shirts. But can’t tell for sure.

Star, there’s still the double eviction to look forward to. I agree with you and everyone who said they will probably not have two HOHs due to time frame or they will make us wait until Sunday again. Still two will be going home. Being a BB fan in itself is nuts but we love it and I, for one, appreciate every single one of your updates. Thank you!!!

Glad Nic is seeing what is going on. Christine winning the veto is possibly the worst thing that could have happened. Well, hopefully Zach will go home, we need one less detonator. With any luck, Frankie or any of the other detonators will go during the double eviction.
Ok, its 2 am here, going to try to get some sleep.

Starfish — To be honest, I’m not 100% sure on how wordpress handles moderation. I know that if you’re posting for the first time or if you’re posting from a different IP Address than you normally post from, your comment will go into moderation and either myself or Bill or JT will have to click on approve to get it out of moderation.
We also use askimet, a spam blocker. Every time anyone submits a comments — regardless of who they are or how long they’ve been a member of this blog — that comment is checked for any sort of odd links or anything like that. (That’s why, if you put more than one link in a comment, chances are that your comment will end up being held for moderation.) Usually, it only takes a second or two for the askimet to analyze a comment and to post it. However, occasionally, the system gets backed up. For instance, if a lot of bots are trying to post spam all at one time, the system will get backed up and sometimes, a comment will be held in moderation awaiting a spam check, basically waiting until Askimet can finally get around to checking it. In that case, the comment will be posted once askimet gets a chance to check it or I can go ahead and approve the comment, even if Askimet hasn’t gotten a chance to look at it yet.
For the most part, askimet does a pretty good job. I’ve seen firsthand all of the spam that it has blocked from getting posted on this site (and, for that matter, all the other sites that I write for as well) and trust me, it’s a lot. Everyday, at least a hundred spambots try to post here and askimet keeps them out. But, unfortunately, no system is perfect and occasionally, it does mean that legitimate comments get held up for moderation as well. So, all I can really do about that is just keep checking and try to get those occasional comments moderated as quickly as possible.
But every time there is a comment that’s waiting in moderation, I get an e-mail letting me know so I can usually hop over to this site pretty quickly and take care of the problem.

@ Star and *Fish, sorry, I got bored and went to hang with the fam…
The clip I heard was Nicole confronting Hayden about if he made out with Victoria and he said no. Christine said he did, so if that’s a lie and already treading on thin ice with Nicole. Granted, I was slightly distracted while listening to the recap so my comprehension could be off. Either way, moot point at the moment with Christine wearing the POV necklace.
I doubt Christine will use the POV. Nicole may want her to, but it would blow her game.
TTFN!

Nicole may be disappointed that she can’t backdoor Frankie but she should be happy getting a chance to get rid of Zach. To a large extent, Zach does all of Frankie’s dirty work. Whenever Frankie needs to do something that could reflect badly on him, he gets Zach to do it for him. By taking out Zach, it forces Frankie to get his own hands dirty (assuming, of course, that Frankie survives the double eviction).
Last season, was it McCrae who always made the big deal about kicking the veto box closed at the end of the every veto ceremony? That used to annoy me almost as much Frank Eudy constantly telling people to “pop a squat.”

I was not hoping Christine would have won the veto, I wanted someone to win who would take off Jocasta and then Nichol could put up Frankie and we would have a Zack/Frankie on the block, now that would have been drama.

thanks marlo Jo and Lisa marie for anwering me about the movie. My daughter says things scare him yet it’s all he’s talking about. and if it’s 3d then i know she won’t take him. maybe eventually he can get the movie and watch it at home…..i got him a folder to start school with , with the characters on it and zombie decals of his parents lol…even a zombie cat for his kitty. i used to take my daughter to any movie i went to see..i think she was three when i took her with me to see “Rambo”….bad mom, i know…but i pretty much treated her like an adult.
ohboy, i wonder what Christine’s going to do…if she was smart she’d do what nic wants her to do or she may be leaving soon.

@Lisa Marie and all other prolific posters – I have a great deal of respect for all of your writing talents. I am a terrible writer and have a lot of problems getting words from my mind to the page. I’m a two finger typist and the keyboard is a serious choke point in getting my thoughts out. I’ve tried voice recognition, but don’t have the computer resources to make it effective. Back in the day I was a programmer before I retired, and was a lot more comfortable writing code.

tendr, if taking kids to movies they maybe should not see makes one a bad mom, I was one too. I took my kids to all the “R” rated movies I went to see, it was cheaper than a babysitter back in the day. Plus it provided a nice backdrop to teach them about life and what you shouldn’t do in certain situations. We used to talk all the time about how many characters in movies rush to violence when there was always another solution. But then doing things in a responsible manner would have taken fun out of the movie.
Is it live or is it Memorex? Memorex is still in business. I saw some blank VSH tape by Memorex in the store the other day while looking for something else. They simply don’t advertise that they still make the stuff.

One note on Guardians…We haven’t seen yet but are going to, and excited about it(my girlie is 7). Vin (the voice of Groot) said on Live with K&M Friday, that he finally made a movie he could take his son to see. His son is three.

I don’t want to see Zach go home because he’s the only HG who can talk to Julie Chen without sucking up to her. Everyone else makes asses of themselves when she singles them out for a question on Thursdays. I wish Julie would retire and they let Jeff Schroeder host the show. He does an awesome job interviewing. Julie has sucked this season interviewing the guest and hosting the show.

FYI…… I don’t even go to R rated movies!! 🙂 If you want to teach them life lessons, take them to church!! IMHO!!! Don’t get upset with me …… just remember when I went to the movies when I was young, even husband’s and wives had to sleep in twin beds! 🙂 I believe it’s our job to do our best to protect our kids. I guess I am just an old fashioned girl! I love sweet love stories with happy endings. My favorite movies are Little Women, Funny Girl, Gone with the Wind, Field of Dreams, My Fair Lady, Remember the Titans, etc. I remember when my niece and her boy friend took me to see Jaws’ I got so scared during one scene, I pulled the large curtain from the wall in front of me and I almost tore the curtain down from the wall! They still tease me about that! I’m sure it’s a generational thing and I am not into judging, just stating my opinion! Have a great Sunday! “This is the day that the Lord hath made, let us be glad and rejoice in it!”

Lisa, absolutely Nic should be thrilled she gets Zach out. Frankie will be like a fish out of water without his snuggle buddy and his pawn. Yep, McCrae thought he was cute kicking the veto box shut. Cute wouldn’t be the word I would uses for him in any respect. 😈
eric angel, really, memorex still in business. Who knew? I remember the phrase too.
bbfanmo, I agree, Zach is entertaining when he talks to Julie, he can be hilarious. To me, he seems pretty mean spirited in the house so I will be happy to see him go. If Nic can talk Christine into using the Veto and then having Zankie on the block that would be great for us fans for sure. It would be one week that wash’t boring.
As for Jeff taking Julie’s job, it would be interesting to see what everyone here thinks. I for one don’t think he’s ready, but that’s just me. What do you all think? Would you like to see Jeff take over hosting BB instead of Julie or wouldd you like someone else?

Craig Long, I’ve watched two fingered coders go to town on the keyboard. I guess it’s different when you’re coding though. It was fun to watch. I was there because I knew how the program should work and I would test and sometimes had to stand there to explain something.
Sorry for the typos folks. I bought a wireless keyboard and I hate it. Sometimes I have to lift it to type the words on the screen. It’s like it holds them back and when I lift the keyboard, they appear and spelling is off and usually the first letter of the sentence gone. Sometimes letters appear I didn’t type and sometimes two of one letter. It’s driving me crazy. It’s a Logitech and I think I’ll toss it a buy a new one. Makes me crazy and things take twice as long to type unless it decides to give me a reprieve for a few minutes and behave itself. 😆 :v (^^^)

Christine winning veto is so disappointing, but at least disappointment replaces boring for a bit anyway.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A big thanks to each of you who monitor BBAD and LF and keep us apprised of all the news, when it happens, as it happens. I don’t think I could take the constant state of suspense without all your up to date comments. LM you rock and write! You have tons of talent for sure!
@Craig Long – I think you compose your posts beautifully and creatively. I love reading what you write! In a former life I was a proofreader. It has ruined me and caused me to read very slowly. No criticism on anyone because I’ve always felt the content was way more important than the delivery.
@Jolee – After Jaws came out, my husband and I took a vacation on the Gulf coast. I wouldn’t go in the water because of that movie. He was a certified lifeguard and wasn’t about to miss a chance to swim in big water. I ran up and down the beach scanning the water for a shark fin. I like scary movies, but I still won’t go in the water.

two, I can relate to you on so many levels! I worked in word processing for over 15 years and did a lot of proofreading. I read slow also and unfortunately catch all of the mistakes in spelling and punctuation! 🙂 I read at least one book every 3 days. I have over 300 books on my Kindle Fire! I don’t mind the misspellings here, because I know most of us write like we text! IMHO!! 🙂 Have a good day and stay away from the ocean!! 🙂

@Jolee – We seem to be very simpatico! : ) You are really clever. I feel the same as you do about proofreading being a curse in a way, but I’d much rather everyone write like they talk. When I was in first grade, the nun sent a note home asking my mother to work with me because I insisted upon spelling words the way they sounded and not the way they were spelled. I still don’t see the point, but the world overrules me!

Zankie on the block would be the best scenario for all, but the Christine would be the target of the one left in the house. I believe she’s been laying low and may surprise us.
Jeff, I think is a natural at Hosting and connecting with people via Q&A or snippets on Youtube . He would be a great host, but i don’t think Julie is ready to move over.
Julie is more rehearsed , scripted and unnatural but some like her style and especially her husband who will never fire his wife. But if we could vote for this I would say Jeff is what I would prefer for this type of show.
@LM Thanks for all you do

Jeff or somebody else qualified. BB needs a serious makeover, from Julie to production. For too long its been the same thing year after year. I still watch but it would be nice if they gave us something new every few years and I’m not talking about the lame twists.
Season 1 was nice with the hgs nominating 3 guests and the viewers doing the evicting. But after Chicken George said the one girl (can’t remember her name) had to leave and everybody in his town got together to make sure that happened, CBS decided there needed to be a major overhaul of the eviction process. While I can see their point, it is well past time for another one. I’m tired of HGs using the backdoor strategy in order to get out their targets; tired of the have nots; tired of the predictablity of the comps and the voting.
Yes, Julie is rehearsed. The person who really needs to step down though is Grodner and the rest of her production team.
Jolee, church is great if you believe. I’m agnostic, so no church for me. My daughter however is Methodist. She came by that decision as a teenager after I’d talked with both the kids about religion, my views and why most people believe their is a higher being but I question it. My son, he believes in God but doesn’t go to church. I’m proud they both decisions on their own and didn’t just follow with going to church because that’s how they were brought. I taught them to reason.

erie angel. All I need to do to believe there is a God is to look at a baby’s toes and hands how precious. Also all the beauty around us. It’s okay if you don’t believe in God He believes in you. Thats why He sent His only Son to stretch out His arms and died for you. He love’s you soooo much. God bless you precious Lady. {{{HUGS}}}

Erie-angel, I agree 100% that our relationship to God is a personal choice. That is why I accepted Jesus as my “personal” Savior when I was 16 years old (1949) I don’t know how old your children are, but the Bible says: “A little child shall lead them.” God bless you! I know you are proud of your children and the fact that you taught them to make their own choices.

I have to admit that I’m not a big Julie Chen fan. To me, it’s always kinda obvious that she doesn’t really follow what’s happening in the game. Her main concern seems to be to ask the questions that were written out for her before the start of each live show but she never knows how to react whenever the houseguests do or say anything unexpected. Also, whenever she explains the rules of the HoH competition, she tends to do it in this flat monotone without any sort of expression or emphasis and, to me, that makes her a bit difficult to follow. It also bothers me that, during the pre-eviction speeches, she always lets the first nominee ramble on forever and then snaps at the second nominee, “Make it quick.” Maybe the need to have a system like they do at political debates — when the red light flashes, your out of time.
Don’t get me wrong. Everything that I’ve read about Julie would seem to indicate that she’s a nice person and she actually got the Big Brother hosting job long before she married Les Moonves. But, as a host, I feel that she leaves a lot to be desired.
As for who I would replace her — maybe that cute Australian guy who hosted Opposite World on SyFy earlier this year.

@Starfish! I have the same keyboard……it’s nuts isn’t it? You can be typing and look away and the thing you look up and you’re typing on a totally different line….i too have to pick it up and look really close for the keys.
erie-angel , thanks…i used to go to cheap movies with breast feeding one baby in the dark (i was very laid back with my kids) and a five yr old girl , my oldest sitting next to me. we had a lot of discussions about movies after we’d watch one………and i think my ‘baby’ and i bonded on beavis and butthead. (as a girl we’d mostly laugh at how stupid they were)
I’m not even going to try to guess what’s going to happen on bb….i just hope it’s something, for once, i like.

Julie Chen is a trained news anchor, that’s why she has a hard time with a loose question and answer session. The one thing that BB has always lacked is the personality quota on the live show, they need a bonified front man/woman who can connect with the audience and contestants and bring an energy to the show.

Well, it seems we all agree Julie could use a makeover with her TV persona. I agree LM that she’s very monotone and I would like to see some spontineity from her. I too agree she’s stiff but she’s not when she’s on during the day is she. Forget the name of the show. Can’t remember anything these days. 🙄 I would like to keep it female if they make a change, which I seriously doubt. She just needs to lighten up like she does during the day. Jeff is just too goofy for me.
Keith I don’t think I realized she was a trained news anchor. Thanks for that info and that makes more sense to me. You said it, the show needs more energy!
As for my keyboard, yes, I must check typos too and happy I’m not the only one. I do read carefully having also been a proof reader and checking nearly every bit of documentation that left our company because my brain used to automatically pick out a typo on a page. It’s not as bad anymore but I still catch many in novels. That’s a terrible affliction. Now, I just type and my keyboard isn’t helping one bit.

As much as I like Julie. I don’t think this is her cup of tea. I would like to see someone like the hostess on”Bet on your Baby” or Allie don’t remember her last name. My choice for a man would be either Tom Bergeron, “Dancing with the Stars” or the host of “Opposite Worlds” don’t know his name. My thoughts.

Starfish, I majored in English in college and have a hard time not proofreading everybody’s work. The habits that get me is your, you’re, yore and there, they’re and their. I have to sit on my hands whenever one of those words is used incorrectly.
(I added yore because recently on another site somebody typed it when they meant you’re).

Yore (sic) a cutie, Jolee! : ) Everyone is going to make typos some time so I hope no one worries too much about being “graded”. It’s a wide wonderful world, and their (sic) is room for typos and misspelled words.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I could hardly misuse their, there, your, you’re etc. without cringing. erie-angel, it drives me crazy too, but it’s something that’s prevalent now that people type so much more than they used to. I mean like back in the olden days before even calculators!
Hi, Mr. Bobo!!!
Starfish. your post made perfect sense to me. I’m glad to be in the same boat as so many others where proofreading is concerned. It’s our cross to bear! : )
The daytime show Julie Chen is on is The Talk, and she is great on that show. I agree she’s pretty stiff on BB. Chen-bot. I love the way Wil imitates her. They need to get someone who is more engaging when (I hope) they revamp the show. I’d like to see them go back to doing competitions for the food they all get to eat. Little more action; a little less conversation.

Thanks everyone for the name “the talk”. I don’t watch it except when they are or they’re going to show something about BB. Julie just seems so much more relaxed and spontaneous.
Me toooooo, eric angel and two. Jt is one who recognizes the to, two & too plus the their, there and they’re and your, you’re and youz guys 🙂 thing and a few others. I watch some of the spelling of teenagers on FB and I cringe at their spelling. It’s really not spelling, it’s that they don’t know the definitions. Plus they shorten everything. God help them when they actually have to write something of substance.
Now, I just type and even screw up your for you’re when I’m typing too fast which I do. This is not an English blog so just type away, we’ll get it, no problems whatsoever!
I guess nothing’s going on in the house today, right? I was hoping for a little less conversation and a little more action!

Boring house day.. But on the plus side I’m actually getting caught up on MY house. 😉
My favorite way to distinguish when to use “to” vs. “too” is to think in a southern accent.. If it makes sense if you say “ta” it’s spelled “to”… i.e. “I’m fixin’ ta invite you ta” doesn’t work, so you would spell that “I’m fixing to invite you too”. 😀
