Look! Don't look! You know the dealio!
So, I mentioned to someone, I think, that Jerry was really aching to use the POV in the hopes that Michelle would throw Dan up. He wanted to take Keesha off. I think he has a thing for Keesha. He is pretty protective of her and basically has pledged his allegiance to her at every single argument. So, the question is, did Jerry use the POV forcing Michelle to put someone else up?
NO! Yay! But, from the live feed updates, it sounded like Jerry made a heck of a speech and made it sound like he was going to use it saying something about "I have the power so..." I guess he bad mouthed Dan really bad and the other HGs are a bit upset by it. He basically painted his own target on his back with his speech.
So, there ya go! He did not use it, much to his own chagrin.
I am happy! I also read that Michelle had no intentions of putting Dan up there even if Jerry had used the POV so, he would have basically caused issues and still not gotten what he wanted. People are confused by why he would try to get Dan out when everyone wants Libra out right now.
What do you all think? Are you happy or unhappy that Jerry didn't use the POV?

I just read that, too! And I'm glad if he's making others upset. He's not far behind Libra and April on my list to get the boot.
I'm also glad he didn't use it. Bye bye Libra! I'm also happy to know that if he had, Michelle wasn't going to put Dan up. That would've been interesting to see if he had used it, thinking it was going to be Dan and instead it's someone else. Any idea who she would have put up?
Please, PLEASE let someone other than Ollie, April, or Jerry win HOH this week!

Renny makes sense. She would be the perfect pawn because there are bigger threats to get out.
I feel the same way about Memphis. You would think by now I'd have everyone figured out but I'm still on the fence. Sometimes I do find myself rooting for him because he's an underdog and not one who's always causing trouble. Maybe it would seal the deal if he got Jerry or April out. LOL

Same here! I think my list goes: Libra, April, Keesha, Jerry and then whomever. LOL!
As for who Michelle would have put up in place of someone if Jerry took someone down, I read that she would have put Renny up. She just said it to someone or something. I literally only just read that about 15 or so minutes ago.
I am actually sort of hoping for Dan to win the next HOH. Or, maybe Memphis. I am not entirely sure what I think about the guy yet but, it would be interesting to see him win it.

I am now hoping that Libra is going home. I hope so I hope so I hope so. Fingers crossed on this one. I knew Jerry was not going to use it unless he used it on Keesha. I think Jerry is playing the house a little too much. I think also next week Jerry should go. That guy is sure erking me the wrong way. Don't really care for his attitude along with others in the house. I am really looking forward to see who is going home. But still I hope for Libra.
Dan has played it quite cool this week and he is being smart about it as well. He and Memphis looks to be the only ones in the house that have some brains about them. Yes Memphis took a round out of Jerry but in all honesty I would of done the same exact thing for calling someone a womanizer. Meanwhile you were grabbing Aprils boobs on the first day of the show. Your 75, married and you shouldn't be doing that on national Television. April is equally to blame on this one as she pressed him to do it. Then go and say I can't beleive he touched them etc. Well come on you dumb blond two faced bimbo. You begged him to do it and he did it. Deal with it.

That's right! I keep forgetting about the boob thing until people bring it up again. And the other night she was acting like she was grossed out that he touched her boobs. She put them in his face and anyone else who wanted a feel. It's a little late to be acting high and mighty.

Jerry and memphis both have been playing the side of the HOH. Never for themselves. Always doing what the HOH wants it seems. They both should be put up for nomination next week. I can only hope. The boob grabbing was WAY out of line. Especially considering the mans age. Un friggin' real. Buh Bye Libra.

Reesers - I almost forgot about that whole incident as well untill I heard them talking about it a few nights ago on Big Brother and April calling Jerry a creepy old man.
Grandpa Bob - I haven't seen Memphis really playing the side of HOH. He hasn't won it as of yet. He has actually been pretty calm except for the blow up on Jerry. And kudos to him for that one. I respect him alot to stand up to Jerry for calling him a womanizer when Jerry was touching April's boobs. It was inapproiate if you ask me. In all honestly it would be like your grandfather/grandmother touching you like that. A subject I don't like too well. I am happy that Libra is hopefully going home.
Plunketear - The very first episode I remember April throwing her boobs in Jerry's face as well as seeing it. My fiance and I were utterily shocked and totally disgusted by this act. It is not right for either of their behaviour as well as the actions. As well as April has broughten that fact up as well and has called him a creepy old man for doing it. Why throw yourself at the person and go back and say something like that. You wanted him to touch and he did. You taunted him so now April hunny you gotta suck it up princess and move on. Another thing up in the HOH room I think it was Jessie that had HOH I can't remember but Jerry called Memphis a WOMANIZER. I have not seen Memphis once play with a girls emotions in the house. And if I remember correctly Memphis was totally against the whole April letting everyone touch her boobs. Jerry is in the wrong and its stuff like that is why I don't like him. I can't stand the guy anymore. He erks me the wrong way because of that as well as totally uncalled for actions and blowouts.

I want to see both girls gone too! And, as for Dan, I am there with you. I kind of like him a tiny bit too. That could change but, he is slowly working his charm on me. I still want Michelle to do good but, at this point, I feel a little bit like saying that, if Dan won it over Michelle, it wouldn't hurt my feelings. So, let's go with, I want Dan and Michelle at the end. Maybe Memphis but, he is my On The Fence person this season. I like him, I don't like him...I mostly don't like him but, I sometimes am ok with him. LOL!

Well, I'm gald Jerry didn't use the POV because I want Libra gone BAD! I give the guy credit, though, for out-chopping everyone else in that POV competition. He's 75 years old! He really wanted to give Dan a scare I guess. But he went a bit too far with his "Judas" speech.
I hope Dan will be allowed to tell them that he was America's Player for one week. That revelation still may hurt him, but at least he can explain what happened last week. As of now, no one trusts him.

I'm glad he didn't use it too. But, even if he had, it wouldn't have been Dan that Michelle put up. She said her plan was then to put up Renny if Jerry used it. She figured that Renny would be safe for sure and Libra would be going home. That is her goal and, she knows that Renny isn't on anyone's bad side so, it would have been a unanimous vote for Libra's eviction. So, Jerry wouldn't have gotten his way even if he did use the POV.
That speech he gave, calling Dan Judas, was over the top. He needs to shut up. Dan took it like a man though. He handled it gracefully. He's pretty well-tempered which speaks volumes to me given how very poorly tempered most of the HGs are.
I think that if he is able to tell the other HGs that he was AP, I don't know if it will help or hurt him. I think it will help them know that he had no choice but to evict Jessie. But, the fact that he made $20,000 will put him on April's radar since she is jealous of anyone getting any prizes but her. They will look at the fact that he could have declined the offer instead of taking it and they won't please them I am sure. They will also see him as a threat in case America has any other roles to play in the future and that will make them resent him because they will see him as our favorite. That might make them jealous and want him out more.
I don't know...him telling them he was AP is a double edged sword. It will help him in one way but likely bring problems for him in many more ways.

I was hoping that he would use it and that Michelle would have listened to what Renny was saying about April and put her up. I thought that Renny made valid points about April actually being responsible for Jesse going home.
I hope that they get Libra out and am thrilled that Dan is safe this week.

I am really glad that Jerrry didn't use the pov now. I am starting to like Renny more and more too. I think she is very entertaining. I would love to see April up sooner than later.

I am totally all for April being held responsible for Jessie's eviction. She put him up despite having given Michelle her word that she wouldn't.
But, we will have to wait at least another week before we see April pay for...well..being April! LOL!
I am a little happy that Dan is safe too but, Michelle said she would have put Renny up in place of someone else if Jerry had used it.

I just got done reading Morty's and saw what they said about Jerry and the POV and now Dan wants Jerry out real bad..I can't wait till Jerry see's that it wasn't Dan's fault and hope Jerry apologises big time...
Most people are saying Libra maybe needed out but Keesha is really the one that needs to get out now..I still feel that way too

I have been reading some of your other responses, it almost sounds like we are all in the house, hehe, but we are more friendlier about it, no screaming matches. I almost expect someone to start duking it out with each other. I think Libra needs to go, she sure likes stiring things up. Jerry needs to watch his mouth, or he will get booted off, I read the funny comment about "Boobgate 2008" thats funny. If I was Jerry;s wife, I would have a few things to tell him when he gets home. He was pressured, and put on the spot and wanted to fit in. April should be ashamed, the first day and she acts like that. I love BB and wish it was on everynight.

wished he would have used it on Keesha personally. But oh well. The house guests have been at each others throats for a few days straight now and I love watching BBAD to see whom is screaming at whom. Seems Libra has isolated herself from all the house guests as of late also. Oh well. I say, TaTa Libra, see ya in the Jury House.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

It actually might have been ok if he took Keesha down because I read that Michelle would have put Renny up. Even then, Libra would still likely have left so, it probably wouldn't have mattered either way.
I can't wait to see Libra leave! I do wonder if she is isolating herself thinking that they will forget why they are mad at her. LOL! Nope, Damage done! Bye bye! LOL!
I am loving the hollering on BBAD too! LOL!

Hey star reporter brain twin! I forgot to watch! Would you
believe it! I don't know what's wrong with me! I get so
thrown off my roomate that I just forget until after the
fact so I missed it again! So what was this speech about.
I really thought Jerry might actually sneak in to the
end, well guess not. Why is he pissed at Dan, not that I
can blame him. I don't like Dan either. I don't want him
to win. Oh heck, I don't want anyone to win! I think you and
I should win! What do you think brain twin, let's split the
money and run! This is the worst BB and I don't like any of
the HG's, not even Michelle. I can't pick anyone who I really
want to get the money. This is the first BB or second that
I really can't stand the cast!

Hello My Biggest Fan and Brain Twin! LOL!
I can't believe you missed it but, I almost did too because golf ran late which made 60 minutes run late which meant I would only have caught 10 or 15 minutes of the show if I wasn't paying attention.
So, the speech Jerry gave was during the POV ceremony. I guess he laid into Dan pretty hard about voting out Jessie. Jerry also implied that he had all the power with the Veto because he apparently thought that if he took someone down, he also go to name a new nominee. I don't know all of what he said because I don't think they showed it on the live feeds but, Michelle was really upset with him for it. And, she has since come to the realization that Dan is no more responsible for Jessie's eviction than Libra, Keesha and Renny so, she doesn't hold any one of them totally responsible for Jessie's eviction. But, Jerry holds Dan solely responsible for it and he made that point clear. I am looking forward to seeing what all he said on tomorrow's episode.
And, I am all for splitting the money with you! We deserve to win it for having to put up with a really crappy batch of HGs this season! LOL!
Although, I do like Dan...today! Tomorrow, that may change again! LOL!
