Big Brother Craze

Well, as beautiful as it can be with a looming food competition! Things through the night last night were pretty laid back and mild, with the four members of the Anti-James alliance holed up in the HOH room, talking smack amidst some general chatter, while James and Sharon opted to go to bed early, and had a heart to heart chat.

I tell ya, I can’t figure Sharon out for sure - is she with James? Is she with the women? Is she ever going to stop fingering that damn blanket? One thing seems certain - she threw that HOH competition. The only question is - was she trying to throw it to James, or to Adam? Risky and stupid, and just might end up with her eviction this week.

Adam, in a brief conversation with Ryan, gave me hope for half a second as he said he might put up Natalie and Sheila. Ryan, of course, put a kabash on that because “Natalie’s their girl”. What Ryan doesn’t know is that Adam promised not to put Sharon up if she threw the HOH competition (If I remember right - might be if he kept her, who knows. I do know that throwing HOH was mentioned.). So what’s he going to do? James/Sharon seems the most obvious choice if he goes along with Ryan/Natalie who are only holding on to him as a third wheel and to do their dirty work. Adam did seem a bit irritated that the girls (Natalie/Sheila) took over his HOH room and “think it’s theirs!” just before their midnight snack, but well - it’s Adam, how on earth can anyone figure out what’s going on in that head of his!?

I don’t expect any surprises - I don’t really think that Adam has enough spine to make this HOH his own. After all, he didn’t last time, did he? So, if this is indeed Natalie week 3, it will be James and Sharon on the block this afternoon. I’ll spoil it after noms.

Oh - and for those still clamoring for a James Back Door plan - THERE IS NO BACK DOOR anymore, because EVERYONE PLAYS THE VETO COMPETITION. There are replacement nominations, but not back door. James knows that no matter his position he HAS to win that Veto - but there is. no. back. door! Back Door is only when the re-nom does NOT have a chance to play for the Veto, which is why it’s such a crappy deal for the houseguest targeted by it.

Before that, though, we have a food or luxury competition in the works. They were woken up early, told 90 minutes, and 3 hours later we went to flames, then trivia, after a brief feed leak of music and Sharon’s “What the hell?!”

I’ll be back with the results of that, as soon as the houseguests spill the beans in their normal talkative way. Talk amongst yourselves… (grin)
