Vegas for Dishers

Over the years I have attended "meet & greet" folks in Vegas and Im feeling sorry for the BBdishers who are off this coming week-end with high hopes, of having a lulapoluzzie of a time. These things never, never, never work out well.....
Everyone wants to do everything at different times, go different places and eat at different times and places. The last time I went to one of these "get-togethers" most of the crowd only wanted to play Bingo!!! Everyone took off in different directions, even though we had set times to be in specific places...Nope....didn't work. Myself and 2 others got left behind on one occasion, which worked to our advantage in that, the resort sent us in a big white stretch limo....to catch up with the others. That was a hi-lite! Perhaps the only one.....
Since I follow BBdish and read their comments...Im afraid some will be very disappointed in the outcome.True, some are there to see all the past Big Brother houseguests but methinks most are going to meet Carolyn (can't blame them). Carolyn is going try and get interviews of some of these past HG's and her time is limited to what she can do, so if most think she will be at their disposal anytime,anywhere.....they are dreaming! I know Vegas never sleeps but after the last grueling weeks of transcribing all the goings on in the house, Im sure sleeping will be one of her priorities, at some point. I wish Carolyn had not opted to tell everyone of her plans until the last moment as she is gonna be swamped by her dishers.
Most of the ones I met on several occasions.....I never saw or heard from again. Most came with a friend or friends and left the same way. Very few kept in touch.
May I say that Carolyn is the "mama" of the BBdish blog along with Genie and Lessa. If they could meet.....what a time they would have! They at least had the blogging in common and could compare notes......but with all the different personalities going, Im afraid there is going to be some dissention sooner or later. Oh Caro...you made a major error in telling them so soon.
I hope Im wrong and all things go well but( BIG) it has been my experience that Murphy's Law will be in effect..............

Hold the Phone!

I just wish AGP and CBS would get their messages straight.... First Julie says "want to be a fly on the wall and watch the houseguests every move 24/7" and then CBS or superpass (dunno which ) says they have the right to block any game comps etc for any extended length of time.
Well I paid superpass(Real) the fee for watching 24/7 and not watching bubbles or fish everytime I log on. Not seeing the comps is bad enough but if we are blocked now until Wednesday night.....that's a bit much in my opinion. Talk about an oxymoron.....
Every year this bugs me and I always say Im not going to pay again for the next one and I always fail to. Common sense should tell me that being Canadian is not a plus here, as we don't even get all the "extra's" that they promise ....like the free music downloads etc....so putting all these barriers in the way really turns me off and after seeing this last season, which is almost over and was the worst of the worst Im pretty sure Im gonna stick to my guns if there is a season 13! and find something else that my inquiring mind wants to know......anywhoo Im voting for Brendon as AP (which won't count cuz Im a foreigner) and hope Hayden takes the half mil. If any of these houseguests use their time in the BB house on a resume for work in the entertainment business....then they are a bunch of sick puppies! End of today's rant.....
