Welllll ......until February anyway.
As per usual I always pick the wrong people to win these things. On DWTS I think Kelly deserved it for all the work she did to get where she ended up. The other 2 have had the entertainment experience she didn't and I always thought this show was to see who improved and made it....not those who had made it already!
Of course on Survivor I disliked Russell from the start and there must be some awful mean people out there in this world who voted to make him the favorite player. He was mean, nasty and cocky all the way through and if that's outwitting..........I'd never outwit anyone. He could have used a dose of humility at least.I have been trying to think of where they will find 20 villians and 20 heroes for the next one. Maybe it won't be 20....just because its the 20th season. We will find out soon. I'm hoping to see Rupert again! In comparison to Mr. Chaos.
As for the Amazing Race......no no no.....it should have been the globetrotters but.......while they were throwing basketballs around someone forgot to give them some book "larnin" Guess most sports focus on effect and not affect. Brian and Erika could have made it too.He had the patience of a saint but he wasn't married to one who did and so they blew it.
So ends the suspense and the losing out on my picks again. Next show I watch I will be rooting for the worst contestant on there, so it won't be such a let down.
If Trump isn't being hit by the recession and needs more help we will get a new one of the Apprentice....otherwise it will be a Celebrity one again. In the meantime I have moved to Spintop and looking for hidden objects.........See ya in the funnies!

Time Lag
Haven't been blogging lately as I haven't "got my dander up" yet about anyone, anywhere.
Both Samoa and even Sweden aren't that exciting. On DWTS ...well Louis and Michael went home so I have no favorite now,there. I'm pretty sure Mya will take it hands down. I am getting a smile on with the globetrotters. They are something! I hope I didn't jinx them by saying that.Typing actually......
Russell still makes me want to turn off the TV but I just can't seem to reach the remote........but I hope his days are numbered.We all know how Texans like to brag so keep it up Russell and I can wave good-bye happy. I have caught myself being more interested in the here and now real world lately.The events in Fort Hood and Florida and the senseless killings that have happened. These things, I cannot comment on as #1 Iam a Canadian and #2 I could be picked off as an activist by the FBI ! All I will say is that if your religion is more important than your country then don't join the military~~God (Allah) may save your soul in the afterlife but your country keeps you safe in the here and now.......just the way I see it.....

another week'stravels
Well it was a heck of a week.......
First I am still grieving for the loss of Russell from Galu. Who can live in Samoa if they get rained on for so long? Whoever picked this destination should be sent to Dubai and dried out.
I don't know which was worse where the weather was concerned. At least in Samoa no one got eliminated but Mika and Caanan wouldn't go for all that water so their trip ended for them.
Here in the real world of mine it has been raining too during the day and as it turns colder at night , we wake up to a white covered landscape in the morning. Then the rain takes the snow away and we do a repeat! Snow is pretty in December but not in October! I think the weatherman has joined the Pot club or something even stronger......
Since I also watch DWTS I am hoping they give Louis 2 magical feet so he doesn't go home tonight. I predict though it will be Michael and Louis. How I will miss them..........Still hoping it will be Melissa and Aaron.Stranger thing have happened.....right?

Well I did it again.....picked the wrong person from the wrong tribe so to set matters straight ......it was Yazmin from Galu who was booted last week, not Monica!
Also wanted to mention that I was waiting for the 3rd disaster to strike and it did, when my computer hit the skids.....so I hope that is it for awhile.
Last nights episode was a wet one. Wow 48 hrs and raining when we left them. Foa Foa is dwindling down fast and we finally said goodbye to Ashley, who they had wanted from day 1.For once Russell didn't create too much havoc, except for threatening Liz because she said he had the idol. Her days are numbered now.....
Im now off to Paris to see what the others are doing. Seems it was raining there too, so taking my umbrella this time. Y'all have a good week-end ya hear?~~~

This blog is Real, real reality.
My desktop computer died!!! on Thanksgiving weekend, no less.
A family member who came for the weekend decided to be generous and added some extra memory to the DT. Some hours later, I was in the middle of a game and it hung. Soooo I re-booted and Wow! Up came pop-up city. "Your system is corrupted" (blah, blah, blah).
Needless to say during the next 2 days my visitor hardly left the desk trying to get it up and running. This between travelling to other relatives for dinners was a real head banger! By Monday we gave up the ghost and he set up my Laptop to do the job in place of the tower. Well, that was another pita as the laptop runs Vista and the DT had XP2.
I would have gone out and bought a new tower when this first happened BUT some lovely Microsoft folks had manufacturers pre-loading vista on every damn computer on the market.Vista is a very dirty word in my language and Im sorry to use it repeatedly but thats the "way it is". (bet the guys who designed it are now working in the mail room).
I was not able to get my Outlook Express back so I lost a lot of info from the folders in there and probably a lot of other files I haven't looked for yet. I'm still trying to learn how Vista has screwed things up. And after everyone had gone to their respective homes, we ran into another brick wall, trying to set up "Remote Assistance", so he could work on it from his home base.
When Wednesday arrived.........we finally got a connection! By this time, I had pretty near wore out the MSN button. So when we get our heads clear and the nightmares stopped, we will attempt to go on, after a much needed break. Got my mail re-routed through Thunderbird (God Bless 'em) so didn't have to change identity addy, but it was a toughie getting the file with the list of addies! Still seems like I'm not getting the e-mail I used to get in a day, but them's the breaks I guess.
As for the trip around the world.....I missed the flight to Cambodia so will have to re-book to catch up with the others. In Samoa, Galu finally lost a resident, but who knew Monica? I didn't. They are so busy showing Foa Foa and RussellH that I hadn't had a chance to know who's who on that tribe! Being "outside the geographical area" I can't even get to see past episodes.
So for all this I give Thanks? Sorry.....thats on hold!

Saturday, October 3, 2009
Well this past week has turned out much better than last~ I got my refund.......put supersnatch in its place and found my old passport....what more could I ask for?
I don't have too much of an opinion on The trip around the world except to say I didn't care for my stop in Tokyo......is this where everyone in the world lives? Crowds, crowds, crowds and the swamps in Vietnam were no picnic either!
Back in Samoa they are leaving slow but surely. Good thing they were out before the tsunami hit or we wouldn't have anyone left. Thank goodness Ben is gone, gone gone......but I won't be happy until that braggart Russell H. is outta there. Probably by then they will have merged and everyone will pay the price. If the Galu tribe has any indication that they have an idol in their camp too, why isn't anyone looking for it? Oh I forgot...they are doing Yoga instead. Bunch of yahoos.
Life here in the real world is getting colder and wetter by the day and it won't surprise me to wake up to a white landscape soon.Winter, here is not my favorite time of the year. If you plan to go out you need to get up much earlier because you have to put on so much extra clothing, such as boots, coat, muffler, gloves etc. Then if it snowed beforehand you have to either get out the snow blower or a shovel....it all takes time.......
I think I just answered the question of why I watch reality shows in tropical places.......take me away Calgon!
Friday, September 25, 2009
OK I think I have things worked out about my statement in the last blog about John wearing the necklace....wasn't John at all , it was Mick. Takes me awhile to get who is who with so many contestants and which tribe etc. and now they're leaving like flies on dead meat.
Also a note about Real "supersnatch"...they need some upgrading in technology on running a live performance with lighting and presentation. Yikes! that was one terrible experience. My stream kept reloading with every sentence out of Chelsia's mouth......It was so dark I even was using a flashlight to try and see what was going on and the noise in the background with everyone talking at once was yuckeee----
While Im venting I am gonna also say .....who in the whole Internet can help someone with a major problem.....not ME!
A year ago I purchased a laptop which had a free trial already loaded on it from McAfee. I HATE McAfee!!!! So I deleted it off my hard drive and loaded my own choice of virus software. They kept sending me expiry messages which I also deleted. Well today I was checking my banking online and guess what I see??? A charge for McAfee for $77.21!!! I never gave them any authority to do that and its never been on my laptop since I bought the laptop a year ago. I'm just raging over this...ok??? Sooooo I try to call, only to be told "that number is no longer in service"...okey ..so I go online to customer support and ask for online chat person.....no one home but they sent me an email of my letter. I didn't check email I checked online chat help. The email just gave me the url I'd just been on....to go to for help???????Hello????
So then my next step was to call Visa and tell them my sad tale. After pushing every # on the phone I finally got a human (I think) and gave all the info to her. I got a diploma in Math 102 while I was doing all this. After going through my speil she said "oh that's terrible...I will connect you to our complaints dept" Hey Lady .....isn't that who you said you were?
So off I go to hold while they extolled the virtues of receiving your statements online to save the environment.Every 15 secs. while I waited and waited and waited ......no response. I finally hung up and called back (sucker!) It was just a retake of the first try. I spent the whole afternoon holding a phone to my ear and I am no further ahead and we all know what happens if you don't pay the charges on your visa bill don't we? So now its a weekend....no one working the desks (if they ever had them) By Monday my blood pressure will be over the top!
To top things off before all this happened I was filling out a form for a new passport and seems I have lost my old one somewhere. I can't renew without the old one ......so decided to blog it 'til the 3rd disaster hits (everything in 3's)
As to last night's Survivor.....I felt bad about Mike BUT if someone doesn't shoot that Russell H....I will!!! I'm so tired of the same old, same old challenges. Puzzles, puzzles, puzzles. water water everywhere and not a drop to drink! It should have been Ben not Betsy who went. Wonder how she could be the weakest one after all the training she would have had as a cop! didn't make sense to me. Then again it should have been that dam Russell over anyone.Someone who really needs money is going to go without because of that creep! Surely the casting director must have known his history if they checked him out before hand. They need a coup d'etat too!
So that's it for this week .......Im off to unsubscribe Real supersnatch now........a girl can only take so much in 24 hours!

Ramblin' on.....Is everyone on a reality show called Russell? Just got away from one and 2 more pop up. By size and behaviour I swear its Natalie in drag for Russell H.
I wasn't super impressed with the first episode of Survivor......When Rupert took the shoes on 6(?) -it was funny and cool but taking and burning the socks and dumping their water wasn't. Game wise I suppose it was a smart move, but this guy does not want or need the money...he says he just wants to have fun.......well I don't call what he is doing fun and I hope they catch on fast and boot his a$$ off of there. Marisa was on to him and she sure didn't last long but how long before others start to add two and two. I hope its soon ............before the hotties go. I hate to use the word "Russell" again but the "good" one is sure an eyefull!!!! Didn't quite get why John was wearing the necklace at Tribal .......guess I missed something. Oh well on with the show!

I feel so empty inside.....like I'm hungry for something more....and I can't find what I want to appease my hunger.
For 12 weeks +/- when my eyes opened I turned on my computer and read everything I could find on BB....I travelled more miles this summer than a marathon runner and this morning when my eyes opened I thought to myself "what are you going to do all day today?"
Being in Canada sometimes sux like this morning when you get that loverly message when you click on a video and up comes "you are outside the geographical area to view this video" Yikes! Then I remembered that I don't get the "free" anything from superpass except the feeds. I often watch people say how great the music was here and there.....hmmm I never got any music on my feeds except the BRB chit. Soooo anywho....I went travelling again and found all the interviews I could find from everyone I could find and they didn't care if I was from Timbucktoo!
Real owes me big bux for all the freebies I didn't get for 11 seasons.
So it's over once more and tomorrow I'm moving to Samoa and shortly a trip around the world. Maybe then I can forget about that house on the lot at CBS. But its gonna take awhile because I will wonder "Did Jordan go to Hawaii with Jeff? Did Natalie really get married (gag)? Did Michele get enough(!!!) yet?" Life goes on for them but it will leave me behind and unsatisfied. It always does, though so I won't lose too much sleep over it.
All in all it was a pretty emotional season, with a fairy tale ending. I hope Jordan is not taken advantage of when it comes to the prize money. She is so gullible that some freakies out there will be at her heels soon, and she'll believe them. But after taxes, and looking out for her mother, brother and cousins there won't be too much to worry about in the bank. Think there was a sister ,the internet and a new car mentioned too. Charities......please don't bother calling! 350K doesn't buy what it used to.
I did feel bad for Kevin. Being last man out is not a good place to be, so I am happy he won 5Kx2=10K, during competitions. That should help with the mortgage a bit. I find it funny that for a guy who is admittedly gay, can seem so straight. His orientation was never an issue for anyone, which pleased me. I guess I would also say there were some real nice people on this cast. Nyeh! and some not. My one regret through this whole season was Natalie getting 50K. But in order for Jordan to win she had to take Natalie. I hope the money doesn't spoil her and that she can find a good and fulfilling life...........

This ramble is just before the live show comes on for HOH#2 and what I think to this point. Let me tell you it isn't good ....
I always thought that production was as biased as we are and did things to favor certain hg's as well as the diary room "suggestions" that go on. I still do..............
To watch Kevin and Natalie blatantly break the rules of HOH#1 was, in my opinion inexcusable.
The video of Natalier especially tying her hand to the key with a hair tie was so clear to everyone and that she and Kevin both stood sideways after being told to face front. Natalie took her cues from Kevin and watched his actions. Then being already warned NOT to speak Spanish ....proceeded to break that rule as well. I know it wasn't strategic as he only gave a time period in Spanish to her as how long before she would drop, but broken is broken no matter what the outcome.
These 2 have perpetually cheated every opportunity they got. They ruled BB like the mafia and the mafia listened.
To hand a half million dollars to either one of them is a travesty of justice, as far as I'm concerned.
Poor naive Jordan who is so easily fooled and has not stooped to their level will go home empty handed. Natalie kept goading Jordan while on the log to get her upset about Michele wanting Jeff and kept making remarks to try and make her lose focus......well it worked.
If her boyfriend really meant the proposal he gave, which seemed rehearsed to me and he couldn't get it out fast enough.........I hope he is ready for one miserable life. Married to a woman who is never wrong, can't cook and never bathes too often.......the only thing I can say would be he won't have to spend much on her clothes. One outfit for a week or two should do it.
This season will be no "happy ever after ending" and it started out to be a great one but it fizzled like a wet match. Im am now on "empty" and will not blog again until its completely over and the BB house is closed for good.
Saturday, September 5, 2009
I have terrible mixed emotions on this one. I said before I was not a sore loser and could take it.......but losing to someone who did absolutely nothing to win except deceive, lie, manipulate and start false rumors is not a win to me. To hand a half million dollars to someone like this is a slap in the face. I know its not quite over, but it will be shortly and the outcome is quite obvious. Out of 11 seasons on Big Brother only 2 have produced the winners I wanted. Season 8 and Season 10. I guess you could say "Good verus Evel" I wanted Curtis for 1, Nicole for 2, Danielle for 3, Jack for 4, Cowboy for 5, Ivette for 6, Danielle for all stars7, and Alex for 9. So I don't have a very good record of picking winners, I guess. In retrospect Eddie had a foul mouth in1, Will used lies and deceit in 2,Lisa just floated along like Kevin and Danielle's diary room sessions killed her, Jun made no enemies but she was pretty devious and sly but Jack was such an up and up guy, you had to love him. Cowboy made it to 2nd place but shy of a pretty face...he lost. Yvette was so loyal to Maggie she gave it away.She had it but made the wrong choice in the end. In all stars no one stood out to me as a winner except I felt since Danielle lost 3 she should have learned her lesson and by then diary rooms were taboo. On season 9 Alex got paired with the witch of the west and because of her he lost big time.Hated that season and the winner as well. On a scale of 1-10 season 9 would hit rock bottom.I loved season 10 and most of its cast but Dan did a great job and even if Memphis had won I wouldn't have minded too much, but Dan was my pick from the beginning. This season started too fast.too dramatic and fizzled to a whimper. At first I was rooting for Jeff/Jordan but came to realize that Michele deserved it so much more.She has been to hell and back and no help from any so called ally. I was prepared to vote for Jordan as America's favorite juror but now my vote will go to Michele. I know Jordan needs the money badly but to pay for fake boobs? uh uh.. It just galls me to think that if Natalie gets it.......it will go to pay gambling debts and that's the pits. She turned a perfectly good quiet gay guy into a monster and if Alfonzo welcomes him home with open arms......then he is no better. I think Michele would use it wisely.
I have faithfully followed all seasons up to now but if there is a Season #12 I will finally be over my addiction and have no plans to either buy the feeds or watch it on TV ........not after this farce.
This is one time I hope and pray I have to eat my words by some unkknown yet miracle.............

Put a selective group of people together for a long period of time and sooner or later they will turn on each other........so I have seen on a blog site I visit daily. I have posted very few comments there and I keep a close eye on most of them. I was not surprised when things got testy last night after Jeff bade faewell to them all. BUT.....the game isn't over yet so Im waiting to see who sticks it out on the blog, not the game!
Seems even the moderators are getting ticked as well. Not a job I would want, because I'm too outspoken in my own opinions. There is an old saying "Rules are made to be broken" and they are taking it literally.I could also say "Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned"!........think it means men too!!
Let me say I have no objections to gay men or lesbians....que cera, cera.......but there seems to be an over abundance of them on this site and they are very voiciferous with their opinions. This seems to be a catalyst to get others riled. They can't seem to keep a reality check on things and have let this game engulf their emotions.
Lets take a step back folks and stick to the script......No stone throwing and if you can't say anything nice to each other ......wellllllll STFU~

WELL..I guess Pandora(AG) has done her thing and its over.
No matter how Michele, Jeff or Jordan try now to "save" Jeff it is over. Looks like the ugly twins have everything covered as far as tossing Jeff is concerned. We need Divine intervention to save the day. I won't give up hope until Thursday and then its game over for me, if the only real player of the game is gone.
How is it possible to actually dislike someone who you don't know, will never know or meet and could easily choke the life out of? Thats how I feel about Natalie. I never knew people like her existed on this planet......well I did but never thought about it much before. She could get a top job with the CIA and confuse the world telling them it was square, not round.I could ramble on about her for hours and Id still have nightmares about her. No person on BB has ever been as evil as she is, not Russell, Dick or ANYONE! There are not enough negative adjectives to describe her and if she wins this season I for one am over my addiction to BB for good. Never have I gotten so riled up over a TV show and a person on it. Not even when Johnny Fairplay said his grandmother died on Survivor! never...never....never......

My ramblin'has become a vent this time.
If I had a paint brush and some paint....I could watch it dry.....or I could play solitaire or nap.
It wouldn't cost me a dime to do those things('cept the price of the paint)
I wish they would get on those bicycles and maybe a light bulb might come on. Sheesh! Can I get blasted for saying "dumb blondes?" Really just one but who can tell with all that hair dye on the market.
I am totally p/o with the 4 1/2 people left in the house! 1/2=Pitbull Person.So far she hasn't changed her clothes in 3 days. Those yellow balloon thingies she's been wearing could stand alone by now. This is disgusting, along with the drool on the sheets. Does Arizona really have no water? I know its mostly desert but really.......uuumph.
Jordan has screwed both herself and Jeff to the mat. If she hadn't kept at him about aligning with the gnat and Kevin, none of this would have happened. When Jeff leaves on Thursday (WAH!) she can blame herself. I think she knows and is trying to save him now for what she did wrong. I blame him too ,some, but Michele would have gone along to the F4 at least if they'd stayed with her. Sure she lied but the winner of Liar's dice here goes to Gnat.
All I know is right now these are the season winners for being boring.....sleep, eat and play solitaire while we pay to watch. They got all the drama they are going to get out of this group and its going to end my even tuning in to the feeds. My luck too that my subscription just came up for renewal last week or Id be cancelling "tout suite".
All I have left is the hope that Pandora comes through with a goodie on the key.........before Thursday.
Wednesday, August 26, 2009
Today I'm going to ramble on about Michele. She may be at home in a laboratory but in the outside world she is completely at a loss. She cannot carry a cohesive conversation for love nor money.
I feel for her. She's like a lost sheep in a herd of bulls. She's clumsy, and is forever getting hurt in some way. You can tell she wants to belong somewhere but she doesn't have a clue where.
Everyone treats her like a leper and makes up all kinds of crap about her, which I think is down right mean. The poor girl can't get off slop and hasn't had but a few decent meals since she entered the house. She sleeps in a frigid room on a metal bed and hasn't had a decent night's sleep either.She has let herself be pushed around and told how to vote, threatened with all kinds of stuff.Maybe she does have all these problems she talks about but how on earth did she earn a PHD if she is all she says she is? Maybe living with rats does strange things to ya ....I don't know.All I know is I'd like to hug her and tell her to hang in there.You never know....she might have an Epiphany yet and cross the finish line if she doesn't trip first...
Sunday, August 23, 2009
Well, here we are with just a few weeks to go and I was right in saying my opinions wouldn't change much. If they did -it was not in Jeff's favor....or Jordan's.
How they can hook up with 2 people who hated their guts since day 1 just boggles my mind. I don't care if its a game or not , I would not trust them to tie my shoes. I would rather take my chances staying true to my word and after being honest for most of the game, but to turn around and decide to lie makes them no better than their former enemies. I could take Jordan right now and shake her til her teeth rattled, and her whiteners fell out. She is pushing Jeff over the edge in every way.......in and out of bed.I'm still hoping against hope that he comes to his senses and doesn't backdoor Russell. You need 2 strong competitors for the final endurance so it isn't a shoe-in .Maybe picking 2 weak players is the game way to go but I would throw in a pinch of loyalty as well. The lies told by Natalie and Kevin far outweigh the few from Russell and Michele. No one is clean but Natalie is down right vicious. Kevin was very easy to maneuver as he definitely isn't a schemer, alone.
Looking ahead and hypothetically ......if Jeff and Jordan win F2 then everyone in the jury HAS to vote for one of them, like it or not. Put any other combo there and ??? Lets see...Michele & Russ?
Nat & Kev? - Jeff & Russ? Jeff & Nat? Jeff & Michele? Jeff& Kev?Out of jury members the win would go to Natalie on this scenario. Putting Nat up with anyone left would be a win for her with the jury. Putting Michele up with any one would be a vote for whoever she was there with.She is not well liked by anyone. The only way Jeff or Jordan could take 1&2 is if they get there together.Any other combo would go to the person against either one of them.
Having rambled on about that, which probably doesn't make any sense to me, really.
All I know is Natalie HAS to go, period. Then Russell, Michele, leaving Kevin to take 3rd spot.
I think Jordan is a shoe in for the Favorite houseguest award, if they have it this season....which is $25k so thats not bad for playing shadow.
Writing thoughts is very confusing, let me tell 'ya and I better quit while I'm ahead....or am I?

Had to take a "ramblin'" break for a few......so spent a few days in the BBdish rehab centre. I couldn't keep up with what was going on and my head was in a spin whenever I logged in. Being an addict is like giving birth so I'm hoping I can forget the pain like mothers do after delivering.
I'd like to insert a "BIG" Thank you to Jun for her last blog.......for 1 simple reason.....she types in English! NOT Korean, NOT American but ENGLISH!......I'll tell 'ya why....
She used the words "sore loser"....yep, she did! She didn't say "sore looser" like sooooo many others do. This has been a pet peeve of mine for years and I just could have reached out and hugged her when I saw what she typed!! I know, I know you all think I'm nutz but hey I can have more than 1 addiction if I please. The word loose has nothing to do wth losing a competition.If I loosed it hmmm I don't quite know what would happen.Many dragon flies might bite me :-) I can handle typos (heaven knows I make enough of them) and I can take other words mis-spelled but Im a sore looser when it comes to lose (ha!) Thank you again Jun...........

Have you ever heard the old saying "It takes one to know one?" In an earlier post I called her/him an insane casting director.......it still goes. 'nuff said.
I also called it an Insane asylum and it has been more than proven in that respect too. If they had windows, there should be bars on 'em. I was going to look for straight jackets on Ebay for awhile but for some strange reason they were outta stock.....wonder why?
Gawd...Dick was an angel compared to these 3..."The "Widows Godderz" as Genie put it.
Never in 11 seasons have I seen such behaviour and there was a lot of nasty stuff over those "good 'ol days". This is enough to bring up all 3 daily meals, and name it the BBvirus.
Bashing each individual would be a waste of my time and yours to put my feelings into the written word.
Needless to say things are not going to get better but this time Im expecting the expected.....Lydia so wants to get to that jury house before Natalie to warm up the bed sheets. She was all ears when someone said they had to "double up" in there, so she'll be the first volunteer, if she has her way.
I know its a sin to judge people and I also know this is a game but I will confess my sins when Im done watching that ugleee woman(?) "Captain Unitard"......Bah!
No doubt Jeff DID give the HOH to Jordan, but when everyone saw her read that letter from home they all had tears(even me) and it was so generous of Jeff to do it. Maybe he had ulterior motives as well ...who knows? Jordan is still saying "no boogering on tv" so far.But we do know Jeff is a very patient man!
So the most ramblin' rant is not so much against the houseguests as it is against AGP. One of the rules in the rule book states that they can hide each others stuff but NOT destroy it. So whoever and whatever they put in the washing machine and the clothes is destructive to me.......but I guess no one was watching the "160" cameras that night.Many things were ruined.
Spitting in anothers food, pouring someones beer down the sink is not hiding either......its destruction.Throwing an expensive mic is not hiding its blatant destruction.......but Jeff gets a penalty for mistakenly sipping gatorade?????? and the other things go by the wayside? To me that is favoritism as well as stripping Michele of her full week as HOH, which she won fairly.
I have lost any respect I ever had, for that insane casting director and now the whole of AGP as well. ( not that anyone gives a hoot!)

Ramblin' on....
When you're an Addict and you go a whole day without your "fix" it makes one very cranky...
When I wrote the last post I never expected to go to a wake for Jessie.....nor did I factor in the Lydiagate. No truer words than "expect the unexpected"
My mind -today- is a symphony of mixed emotions and questions. I guess my naiveitivity kicked in too when I see how petty women losers can be. But I believe that life is balanced and we have to take the good and the bad and suck up both.I have never been a sore loser due to this philosophy.Balance, balance, balance. Be it a game or real life.
Am I glad Jeff did what I wanted him to do?...yes. Am I glad Michele won?- yes. Am I happy with this new 4 person alliance? NO! Not when I saw Russell vote for Natalie. I think he was hoping Kevin would also vote for Natalie and it would have been her to go home and the egomaniac would still be there. What has me wondering is why Russell would vote to evict Natalie but doesn't want her on the block? That boy needs help! He's lost in between both worlds.
Lydia and Chima sure had their nerve walking into Michele's HOH bathroom, closing the door and taking over.Had I been Michele I would have said "Isn't your bathroom downstairs now?"(very politely of course)
Lydia surprised me by not being thankful that Jeff took her off the block and is out to destroy him, which of course also means she gets no more action under the bed sheets I guess.
more later when I get my head together.........

Today I'm going to ramble about my thoughts on Season 11(now playing). My opinions may change but I don't think so right now.
Chima kind of put it in perspective when she said Where do they get these mfkrs- off the street? Hmmm you got in here didn't ya Chima? I personally think they got 'em from an insane asylum!
They have to be the worst cast AG ever assembled in BB history.I personally could care less who gets the money at the end because so far no one is really playing the game, that I can see. Its all just personal attacks and bj's! I haven't seen any strategic plays that came to fruition yet. Lots of suppositions but no real clean strategy.
I also paid for real streaming again, but their time outs and not communication is terrible this season. Between that and the constant fish , most of the happenings I get from bbdish's blog.
The commenters on this blog are numerous and the posters are great and my hat goes off to them for putting up with all the BS that goes on in the house. I have nothing good to say about anyone or anything on this season so my comments on there have been few and far between.
They should have put this group on a remake of the TV show "To Tell The Truth"...would have ade more sense.
The only way to make me happy would be to see Jeff use his coup d'etat and take down Russell and Lydia and put up Jessie and Natalie. If Jessie goes home then there would be only 2 against the rest of the house.......Chima and Natalie.But that leaves Russell lurking........ugh!
Lydia is not my kind of person, but by the looks of her, money is definitely needed, but her stipend should cover the cost of hair dye, and maybe a few condoms.
I knew when Jessie won and joined the athletes this was gonna suck and so far it has....literally!
The rest really need therapy.....especially the PHD holder. All that education and she is unable to communicate with anyone or anything but rats!. Jeff's gang attitude (Chicago) is a bit much and he needs anger management classes. Jordan could use any kind of education available in many subjects including English. Natalie needs a reality check and I can see very well why she and her boyfriends mother do not talk. Id haul his ass away from her. Jessie is a plain old shit disturber and to be idolized by 2 women is right up his ego alley. Russell needs to join Jeff in anger management as well...but he needs more than Jeff does. The Queen Bee needs to get over her hatred against all men as it was only 1 who violated her years ago. All men may be born equal but a few turn out ok., just not in her book. Which leaves me to Kevin....Kevin Who?
Now you see him....now you don't. He's just floating along and sleeping the time away.He wouldn't win if he was F2 but he did get 5000k out of it.It must have taken a lot of energy to open that gift box with it in there.If I have any liking for anyone it would be Kevin.....I happen to like gay men !!
I have always found them pleasant and courteous to be around and very helpful in most cases.
So play on lunatics...play on and we will see what happens next!

So.....lets talk about the current show.Every season I get my hopes up that it will be better than the one before and every season I get bombed by a very insane casting director.
I loved season #1...it had everything a locked up bunch could get for 3 months. People had to actually work together if they wanted to eat.They were given such a full schedule they had to work side by side regardless how they felt about each other.Very little off time for scheming and back stabbing.They had NO clock, NO microwave, NO washer/dryer, NO bread, eggs or veggies.They were given a washboard and a tub for laundry and had to hang it on the back fence to dry. They had a garden to look after if they wanted veggies etc, They had chickens to care for...feed and clean up after and if they wanted groceries they had to pay for them by completing a task which pretty well took the whole week to do.If they completed it they got money for groceries and had to make a list of what was absolutely necessary need. They had to bake their own bread.
They had to build a working clock. First one up every morning was usually Cassandra who had to hose down the patio with all the chicken poop on it as the chickens flew the coop just about every night.They had marathons like dancing continuously for 24 hours or riding a stationary bike to clock 1000 miles.To do this they had to work in shifts where as one performed the others slept and then they would change so that there were always 1 or 2 working at all times of the day and night. They were a real good mix from Eddie with only one leg due to cancer, Brittany with the pink hair to a beauty pageant winner who took hours to put on her make up to the religious bible reader and of course good 'ol Chicken George who kneaded bread for 3 months. In other words -no time for boredom for them or the viewers.
Then the "New" owners took over the show and it pretty well changed forever.As the "perks" got added along the way, the residents became lazier and lazier to the point where they are now stabbing each other on the door step before they go into the house. Its not FUN any more- its a WAR!
I can't say I didn't enjoy some seasons but with the exception of Season 8 and 10, I can say I wasted the other summers watching for the simple reason as I stated before "I AM AN ADDICT"
Maybe I shouldn't say "wasted" as each season pretty well had a lot of "eye candy"
