So what did the banner that went overhead last night say? Apparently half the house saw it.

Libra is a liar.

I wish I could run a banner that said:

"Jesse, you're not cool and America hates you, douchebag. April, you're a whore. Ollie, you're a hypocrit. Keesha, grow a pair. Michelle, we know you're Portugese. Libra, you're a bitch."

I wonder if that's too much.

I'll put in $5 for that.

After the last few days Jerry needs to be slapped down too. Shocking to say after the opening episode, but I find myself liking Renny more than most of the people in the house (probably fourth behind Angie, Dan & Memphis).

Pigs are very intelligent. They are smarter than Cats and Dogs. They just suffer the misfortune of being absolutely delicious.

LOL!

This brings to mind a classic Homer Simpson moment:

Homer: Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Ham?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Pork chops?
Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal.
Homer: Heh heh heh. Oh yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

I was thinking recently that I've not seen Michelle Obama in the news lately... Now I know where she is: playing Libra in the BB10 House. Libra reminds me of her in looks, size and demeanor.
I'm pulling for Dan to win it all, but he'll have to make some alliances sometime or else on will come the "floater" tag.

He should be good now. He stayed alive and now Keesha has fired a shot that will start some good back and forth moves (other than Ollie's) that won't involve him. He could easily stay alive deep into the game. I don't see anything but the CBS shows but I don't see him as a floater. It seems like he is completely out of the loop. I usually think of a floater as someone that kinda aligns with whatever side wins HOH. Right now, it seems like he is just there for the ride.

Actually, I got an email from Michelle this morning, so that blows that theory.

"BIG BROTHER 10" TO BRING BACK "AMERICA'S PLAYER"
Released by CBS
[NOTE: The following article is a press release issued by the aforementioned network and/or company. Any errors, typos, etc. are attributed to the original author. The release is reproduced solely for the dissemination of the enclosed information.]

THIS JUST IN...

From CBS Entertainment...

"BIG BROTHER 10" TO BRING BACK "AMERICA'S PLAYER"

Viewers To Vote For The Houseguest Who Will Be Offered The Chance To Do America's Bidding For One Week And Win Up To $20,000

July 29, 2008 - BIG BROTHER 10 will bring back the popular America's Player segment that debuted in "Big Brother 8," in which viewers will have the opportunity to vote to decide which current Houseguest will be given the chance to be the new America's Player on Tuesday, July 29 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT).

The Houseguest with the most votes will be offered the chance to become America's Player for one week. If they accept, they will do America's bidding and will have the opportunity to win a total of $20,000. They will be asked to make moves that are both personal and strategic, from getting certain Houseguests nominated for eviction to convincing their fellow Houseguests to vote for who America wants out of the house. Most importantly, they can never tell anyone in the house that they are working on behalf of viewers and they need to be careful... because, just like their fellow Houseguests, they can be voted out at any time. Viewers will be able to vote on cbs.com or via text messaging from their mobile phone.

BIG BROTHER 10 is broadcast three nights weekly, on Sundays (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT), Tuesdays (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) and the live eviction show, hosted by Julie Chen, Thursdays (8:00-9:00 PM, live ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network.

It sounds like they are getting desperate to shake things up.

I wish they wouldn't go for this "twist," especially since it looks like the house is poised to start tearing each other apart, but we all just knew that Big Brother couldn't go a whole season without tossing out some dumb twist.

America is full of idiots. They will probably pick Olly and "challenge" him to kiss April.

Did Dan tell Memphis what Jerry said or could Memphis hear him talking?

Or pick Ollie and challenge him to kiss Jessie. Jessie would flip out and probably try to kill Ollie.


Of course, we know the producers pick these, so it'll be something like they'll pick Dan and his task will be steal Renny's wigs.

You know, if America's smart and hates Jessie as much as I do, they'll vote for Angie. The BB producers won't allow the houseguests to vote out America's favorite player.

Actually, it might be better to pick Jesse as AP and then vote for the tasks in a way that totally fucks him up. But I doubt the idiot producers would ever assign a task that would cause any real damage.

I would love to see what happens if there were no alliances allowed. No talking about game play etc. Then to see how and why people get put up, and have people vote how they really want. It would be much more exciting, although I know its not feasible. Having alliances and mostly 9-0 votes makes everything so predictable.
