Wake me up when something EXCITING goes on.....like when Amber laughs....or... D!ck smiles at Jenn....or hmmmmm they end up actually voting out one of the nominees for real instead of playing "nice" and keeping them in...I think as soon as one of those girls goes home, and obviously they all must want them to go home because they wouldn't keep putting them up just because soooooo if they have brains...VOTE KAIL OR JENN OUT and lets stir up some sh!t and let the games be played!!!!

I think the pot got stirred when they booted Nick instead of Jen or Kail. The major sh!t won't get stirred until we get down to the final 7 and/or 6...if the LNC stays together but I am not so sure that will happen either.

At this point, I think that Jen (maybe even Kail and Zach) have bought themselves a couple of weeks of safety. The LNC is already turning on itself. Dani and Jameka can't compete next week. If Dustin/Amber win HOH, I think they would target Daniele/D!ck. Maybe I'm being partial to Jen, but I think some hamsters are realizing that she would be an awesome person to take to the Final 2.

It was supposed to start around noon or so. We do know the player pool for this one: in addition to Danielle, Jen, and Kail, we're getting Dustin, Zach, and Jameka. So for those following the 'let's backdoor Eric and get a stray vote out of the cage' plan as it develops, note that Eric has no way to directly defend himself here. It might also be worth noting that Jameka is in this thing on a Houseguest's Choice from Kail, so cue up the Knights Templar theme music.

Amber, gawd help us all, will be hosting.

If it's noon Hamstertime, that won't be for another hour.

LAST EDITED ON 08-04-07 AT 02:28 PM (EST)

By the time Amber stops crying over having been selected to host, it'll be Tuesday.

They were given a 'in two hours' warning over two hours ago. If they started on time, it would have put them around noon EDT.

but no winner of POV known yet.

D!ick has accused Jen of throwing his cigarettes in the pool. She accuses him of rummaging through her stuff. Be back to edit in the winner when I get it.

Jen won POV...URGH!

What is it with the POV and people whose names start with J?

Sounds like a partial repeat of last season's graveyard routine, where you could take things on or give them up to acquire points. So far, it looks like:

Several people are stuck in bunny suits for the rest of the week. (Zach, Dani, Jen, and Kail.)

Jameka can't participate in any HoH competitions for several weeks -- possibly five.

Jameka got $10,000 and is spending a lot of time in near-compulsive prayer, asking both for personal forgiveness and for the others to be forgiven.

Kail is on slop, starting immediately, duration unknown.

Kail may also be out of several HoH competitions: number unknown.

Zach went out earlier than most of the pack.

Ooops...I guess I misheard some stuff...Dani it talking way too fast!!!

I think last week's Art Auction comp was like last year's Graveyard comp. This week's veto comp was more like last year's when Kaysar shaved his head and Chicken George went on slop for the rest of the season.

Apparently, Jen and Kail are on slop for the rest of the show. Jen, Kail, Dani and Zach have to wear bunny suits for a week. Jen and Kail can't compete for HOH for 5 weeks. Jen and Kail, if one of them were to win, will only collect $250,000 for grand prize.

MM I just wish that there was a way that I could choose for others not to be bigots. - HD

Cool Tune!

Migawd, can CBS get any cheaper? Is this how they're pulling budget money for their Power Of 10 show -- the one no one will ever jackpot on anyway? I saw that bit about having to give up some prize money, but no one had said what kind of percentage it was...

Ugly, ugly, ugly. Given Jen and Kail's chances of winning this thing (and the reduced payoff if one of them does), they might be best off waiting for the jury sequester to start and then quitting. Unless their jury pay's been cut in half too, in which case, walking out and telling BB to go on without them is starting to sound practical.

The way they've been talking in HOH, it's 50% of WHATEVER you would earn. I wonder if there is a clause in the contract they signed that would cost them even MORE money if they did quit the jury. I can't believe CBS would allow themselves to be open to having missing jury members.

Jess is up in HOH now. ##### said specifically that Jameka did NOT take the 10,000...so I'm not sure what is going on.

Dani said she spoke outloud possibly within Eric's earshot about backdooring Eric. Asked Jess if he heard her. Jess is being a good actress and said "I don't think so" (Jess has already told him about that)

##### is now pounding into Jess' head that Eric has been playing both side.

I am hoping Jess stays true to Eric

Half of total earnings, huh?

If they cite their reduced income potential as their reason, I will no longer blame either of them if they Osten. I just think BB went way too far with that one.

I totally agree...too far.

##### and Dani are working Jess really hard...I was gone all day so I don't know if Jess is really buying this or if it is an act.

That Dick threw a bunch of Jen's personal items over the backyard wall.

Anyone else really want to get a look at the rulebook?

In a few words: If you get a copy, I really want to see it.

There is apparently some kind of 24 hour obnoxious every 15 minutes type of thing again like the phone calls last year. Briefly mentioned by Dani, not sure of the details.

Might be one of the sacrifices taken during the veto comp. But hey, since we're doing half-off everything, let's make it every seven and a half minutes.

I think Eric may have overplayed his hand with Dustin. He was basically "thowing Jess under the bus" saying that she was acting sketchy with him, and the 5 need to see her on the block to test her loyalty. They finished their convo and Dustin immediately went to Jess and said "we need to talk later".

Eric's paranoia may get the best of him. If he truly DOES have a choice in evictions and it is not dicatated that he MUST do America's bidding, then he should really really vote with the house.

Jen and ##### have made a peace treaty and have agreed to work together. WTF???

*Draco's all over the place*

Pittsburgh is gonna be on a 4-hour (minimum) tape delay for Sunday's episode which is the HoH and the Nominations plust Eric's wildcard assignment.

Pittsburgh - New Orleans in the Hall of Fame pre-season kickoff game. Mainly will be televised on the NFL Network, but for those that either don't get cable or have cable but don't have NFL Network the local CBS affiliate will also be airing the game...... the approximate time to air will be at Midnight Sunday into Monday on the normal station......... *grumblemumblerhubarb*

Runs off to check the schedule on the DVR.

*whew* I? am shocked.

If any CBS affiliate finds a way to play sports mine usually does to.

I'll believe it when I see it, but so far looks like I will see it at the usual time on Sunday.

...are finally bonding. Jen and Danielle are comparing notes, tentatively, and giving advice to each other. Jen tells Danielle that when ED approaches Eric about being nominated, Eric is going to try to get ED ejected. Jen says "tell your dad to be careful."

Jess has gone back and forth about trusting Eric, coming to the conclusion that she will stay on his side right now. So Danielle does NOT have the votes to evict Eric - she may realize this before the nomination ceremony, however, and I don't know who she'd put up instead. Someone, I think Jen or Kail, (or it could be me) mentioned Amber - pleasepleaseplease put up Amber . It was only mentioned in passing, but I can still get my hopes up.

If it's Sunday, it must be fight night in the BB house. Here's the latest, with Eric and ED (from Jokers):

#####: That handshake in the kitchen between the 3 guys happened in the weight room
Eric: No I saw it with my two eyes
#####: You lied. You are playing with Jen. You are playing with Kail. You're against the group. You let Jen and Kail and me and Daniele go after each other why you watch with popcorn. You wanted Nick out since Day 2
Eric: Yeah I wanted Nick out. My goal was to get passed Nick
#####: You are playing with Jen
Eric: Of course.
#####: This was a masterplan with me and Jen to make a truce and out you? Our stories match. You're outed
Eric: I'm going to say
#####: You blamed everything you did on Nick, you said he played both sides but it was you
Eric: I've been myself since the minute I walked in through the door. People are entitled to think and believe and say or do whatever in this house. At the end we will all see what actually happened...I have no concern
#####: That is not true, you came out of the DR that you said you wanted to be friends but you were afraid that after everyone sees the DR that you were afraid people wouldn't be friends...I know you meant me and other people in here.
Eric: I understand what you are saying, but I have not wavered from what I said in this house. You are entitled to your opinion
#####: Why don't you answer my last question
Eric:
#####: Why did you tell me that Dustin would be first to go out of the 7, but when you talk to them it's me and Daniele going out first? Is that what you said?
Eric: That's not what I said
#####: That's not what I said and not what they said, so is everybody lying but you, you're full of sh*t. You are a lying m--f--cker and you're a sack of *****. That is what you said. Almost verbatim.
Eric: I'm going to tell you
#####: Tell me whatever you want. You have a deal with Jen and a deal with Kail. You persuade everyone, you do your magic. They can't believe someone they like is so full of ***** like you. They can't believe it because they depended on you. You feed ***** to everyone ...you don't give a ***** who wins HOH because you know you're safe.
Eric: I'm glad you're on to me now #####
#####: You're the only one who is calm as ***** about not going up. You know what, you're going up, #####! It's spread out for everyone to see.

#####: I know the truth you ***** liar!

#####: You convinced me that he was the threat, but you were the threat, you ***** liar!
Eric: Jen's word should be taken...
#####: Over a liar? The only reason you didn't vote me out was Joe was playing the same sides you were.
Eric: I am not going to yell at you
#####: I saw you with tears in your eyes
Eric sarcastic: I'm terrified

#####: Everyone knows it makes sense
Eric: I am glad they gave you the courtesy of listening to your case. I won't scream at you, people will take it as they please. We'll see if they go with you or me.
#####: It has nothing to do with me, it's you
Eric: It seems like it has something to do with you. Nobody else is upset.

Eric: Have you not sit with Jen for 2 hours? Kail for 3 hours?
#####:
Eric: Kail did you approach me or did I approach her?
#####: You had a sub-deal...her she ran with her head cut off. If it was true.

#####: I see you shaking like a leaf
Eric: You're right, I'm quivering in my boots.
#####: What happens happens. It will be very close. Don't kid yourself. You have everything figured out. You have deal with me, with Kail, with Jen, with Dustin and Amber.
Eric: The only reason I'd take you to final 2 is because I'd beat you 7-0.
#####: You won't be here at the end. Mr. Reality...who has seen the most obscure reality shows
Eric: Yeah, that I discuss with your daughter!

#####: I miss the time we spend together
Eric: I spend more time with others who are more trustworthy than you
#####: I lie? When have I lied
Eric: Multitudes of times
##### asks for examples and says Eric can't find them
Eric: Daniele, you are allowing him make a bad decision for you.
#####: She needs no help from me.

#####: You are a ***** liar
Eric: You're not talking to me, you're accusing me
#####: That's the truth!
Eric: I will not lower yourself to your level

Eric: You're scared...
#####: I am not scared...I am not afraid of anything! I'm not afraid of going home tomorrow
Eric: You won't go home tomorrow, but you'll go home next week
#####: I might be an ***** but I am not a liar
Eric: You are an *****, you got something right.

##### dares Eric to prove one of his lies.
Eric: You won't make it to the seven.
#####: There is no seven because you broke it up
Eric sarcasm: I panicked.
#####: You are a liar. You have accusations you can't back up. Tell me one lie!
Eric: I don't call people out that I'm loyal too
#####: Them finding you charismatic and funny doesn't change the fact that you're playing both sides and you're a liar
Eric: You're entitled to your opinion

ACK!! Dick is driving me crazy these days! Talk about paranoid! We takes anything anyone says, twists is around sixteen different ways, and then make his "argument" by simply getting louding and using more and more foul language.

And yet, the idiots buy into it everytime.
