Big Brother 13 : A Bunch Of Spinless Jellyfish

     I know this is being posted a little late, but here's this week's eviction running journal...

0:16 - I found out my Mom watches Big Brother so maybe this crowd is more representative of the audience then I thought.  I still don't get the Sunday best outfits.

0:40 - Just after I compliment Daniele on how she positioned herself she makes a series of mistakes.  First she overplayed the Dom connection.  If you want to play both sides you either have to have a low key relationship with the person on the other side or be very subtle in your defense of them not going on the block.  Daniele didn't do either of these.  She hung out with Dom all the time and then went into the HOH (Head Of Household) room and demanded that Dom be kept in the game.  Of course, people started to get suspicious.

1:10 - The other mistake was overplaying her get rid of Jeff plan.  Again, subtlety is the key.  You never want to tell the HOH that they should backdoor their alliance members, you want to drop bits of info and advice that will make the HOH think it's their idea.  Daniele just kept pushing and pushing and then getting mad when Rachel and Brendon didn't do what she wanted.  The game isn't over if Jeff stays around another week or two, drop the seeds and if it happens this week, awesome, if not continue to work on it.  What Daniele did was not only put the target on herself, but ensure that Dom goes home this week.

1:39 - I'm the world's worst speller and even I can spell moisturizer.  Or at least know that I can't spell it.  Rachel is an idiot.

1:55 - I have no idea what Shelly's game plan is.  Part of that is because they don't give her any TV time, but every time they do she's kissing the Vet's asses.  What does she think this is going to accomplish?  She's not part of their alliance, just a lackey that feeds them info.  I don't get what she is trying to accomplish.

3:24 - OH! OH! OH! This season's first use of Julie Chen's over serious "everything changes" phrase!

4:26 - Jordan is showing a lot of game smarts this season.  She was totally right about how to use the veto.  If you knock out Dom maybe Daniele comes back into the fold, if not she will be gone next.

7:12 - Brendon indigently says "they just want to wipe us out."  I could be wrong, but I think that's the point of the game.  How can you get mad at someone for trying to do that?  I got some news for you Brendon, your alliance is trying to wipe you all out as well.  It's the only way they win the money.

10:20 - I'm not sure why Dom isn't throwing Daniele under the bus.  He's gone and it's her fault, why not just tell Jeff it was her plan.  He has nothing to lose and just might be able to save himself by turning on her.

16:00 - Wait... there's someone else in the house other then Jeff, Jordan, Rachel and Brendon?  Why are we just hearing about this deal now?  CBS never even hinted that Kalia had a deal with the vets.  I think that would have been important info to give us.

20:50 - Tick...

21:00 - Tick...

21:11 - Tick...

21:18 - BOOM!  Daniele finally opens her mouth and calls Rachel an idiot.  How did it take this long for someone to inform her of this?

21:30 - OK, I disappointed in that argument.  I thought the explosion would have been much bigger.  If Evel Dick was in the house that would have been an all out scream and tear fest.  Come on, Daniele, you have to give me more then one comment.

25:00 - Yawn!  Can't we get rid of this segment and just get to the voting?

27:50 - Dom gives this season's best parting speech, but I thought it could have been even more biting.  He is totally right about all the newbies.  For whatever reason they are just cow tailing to the vets and I don't know why.  The vets have had control of the house since day one because of the newbies seem to be players looking to ride coat tails.  Not good.

29:09 - And speaking of having no spine, Kalia, what the hell is your problem?  You got called out in front of the whole house, the vets made it clear they don't consider you part of their alliance and you're still doing their dirty work.  You had to vote Adam, if for nothing else then to make a statement.  You have nothing to lose at this point, go out fighting!

29:25 - Daniele, of course, understands this.

32:00 - If I was Dom I would have hugged Daniele and left.  I wouldn't have given the rest of those losers the time of day.  And then Porsche starts talking shit before he's even out the door.  Why don't you actually do something in the game before you start running your mouth.

37:20 - Jordan's "nobody comes between me and my man message" was hilarious.  I was rolling on the floor!

37:46 - OH YEAH!!!!

39:50 - Oh, no.  Julie Chen faked me out.  I thought she was hinting that Dom was going to get a chance to play his way back into the house, but all she had to say was there are no more couples.  Damn you, Julie!

44:12 - I'm rooting for Daniele in this one.  The house needs to be shaken up a bit.  If anyone else wins it will be status quo
