Hi Everyone!
Once again, I’m your guest blogger, while BBBlogger works on opening up the Blog’s diary room later today.
Tuesday night’s show featured America’s Choice–which houseguest should receive a telephone call from home? I think America made the right choice in choosing Jerry. As we all know, Jerry’s wife Joanne has Parkinson’s disease. I’m sure it was very reassuring for him to speak to her and know how she is doing. I must admit that seeing this part of Jerry made me feel “something” for him, but alas, only for a few moments. While checking out videos this morning, I heard him call Keesha a c*** and that changed my opinion back! I’m not saying that Keesha is or isn’t, I just think he should act his age and not speak like that. I’m old fashioned I guess! Jerry asked his wife Joanne about what she thought of his behavior in the house and she replied, “Well…” I would be so embarrassed if he were my husband.
The POV competition involved puzzle solving along with some physical strength. The contestants had to pull themselves across “space” on a wire carrying a puzzle piece and put the puzzle together. There were two preliminary heats. The winner of each heat played each other in a final heat. The first group to compete was Dan, Keesha and Michelle. Dan, once again, threw the competition. He wanted Keesha to win so he could continue to keep his hands clean. The second heat consisted of Memphis, Renny and Jerry. This was no contest. Memphis’ physical strength zipped him right across and in to the final heat. I don’t know for sure, but I think Keesha let Memphis win so that he could take himself off the block and the group could backdoor Michelle.
So knowing that Memphis would use the POV to save himself, crazy Dan comes up with an idea to play a game at the POV ceremony. He had each houseguest name their own replacement. But, he had this all staged so that each houseguest said a different name. Ollie said Renny. Renny said Ollie. Michelle said Keesha. Keesha said Michelle. At the end of this, he placed Michelle up on the block. I think it was all a bit silly if you ask me. I know his idea was to take the heat off of himself, but I think he actually made himself more of a target—especially with Renny.
At this point, I was eagerly waiting to see how CBS was going to handle Ollie’s outburst. They showed a quick clip of him throwing a lollipop and tipping over the fridge and then the show ended. If you read under yesterday’s comments, Natvtxn has an update from CBS saying to wait until Thursday to see what happens. I guess we have to, don’t we?
CBS is including America in Thursday’s upcoming HOH competition. On the website, are a number of possible future headlines. We get to vote on which houseguest we think the headline would refer to. For example, which houseguest would win the Nobel Peace Prize? One of those houseguests?—the Nobel Peace Prize?—are you serious? But anyway, that’s the idea. I assume this means that the houseguests will have to guess our answers. This puts everyone on a pretty equal footing because all they can do is guess. HOH is definitely up for grabs!
Have a great Wednesday…love bbgal08
