More of the Boring Usual
I missed Big Brother on TV this evening because a Pittsburgh Steeler football game was on CBS here in the Pittsburgh area. I found out from the feeds though that Ragan was evicted. That wasn't a bold movie on anyone's part. They should have gotten rid of Hayden. But no, but no. And it seems that Hayden won HOH so he will probably be in the final two. I am just too bored for words.

Boring Brother
The BB show started this evening with the recap of the nominations. Enzo doesn't understand what Lane has going on with Britney. Ragan is not surprised that he was nominated because he's completely by himself. Meanwhile Hayden was quite happy to know that he would be making the final four. Enzo goes over to console Ragan. Enzo tells Ragan that he had no idea that he was going up. Ragan says that it shows that Enzo is at the bottom rung of the alliance that the threesome has. Ragan and Enzo say that you never know what may happen. It's finally time for Enzo to take the penguin costume off. The houseguests did a shunning ceremony. The shunning ceremony was really lame, with Enzo talking to the rubber ducky in the backyard and explaining that he is not its daddy.

Ragan admits that he is alone, and he has to study in case the competition is a knowledge test. Ragan studies the pictures and goes over and over the characteristics of each person's face. Then Ragan went into the backyard and did some weight training. Ragan said that he wants to be the guy who beats the odds, but it doesn't look promising for him. Poor Ragan!

Time for the veto competition. It's one of those ones where there is a speaking clam, and the houseguests have to answer the clam's questions by finding the combination of names that would make up the song title. Each round, the last person to find the names if eliminated. Britney realized too that she would have to win the POV to stay off the block. It seems that everyone wants to win. Enzo even says that he has to kill the competition to get off the block and finally win something. The answer to the first song was a combination of Monet and Matt or Monatt. Lane managed to run up behind Ragan to get the last shell. They thought Ragan would be out in the first round. Well, Lane is stupid, and picks Mochel. Ragan remained in the game because he had the right name. The second was a combination of Rachel and Kristen, Rasten. The second round came down to Ragan and Hayden, but Ragan made it back first. Hayden was out. The third round was a combination of Matt and Kathy, Mathy. Ragan was back first in the third round, followed by Enzo. Britney was eliminated. It came down to Ragan and Enzo, and Britney realizes that it means there will be a replacement nominee. It was time for the final round. Ragan realizes that it will be a battle because they both need the veto. When they came down the slide, Enzo and Ragan fought to get at the CD. Enzo knew where Brendrew (Brendon and Andrew) was. it was hilarious to see the fight for it. Enzo totally manhandled Ragan. Ragan threw his CD at the clam. Enzo went over to Ragan and started saying "who wants it more, that's what it is at this point. It's a fight." Ragan told Enzo more than once to just leave him alone. Ragan realizes that he's in the worst position because the guys have been working together from the beginning and Britney has been in with Lane. Ragan said that he just felt heartbroken because he gave his all to the game. Ragan says that it's going to be a lonely week. Enzo called Ragan a sore loser. Enzo said that Ragan had the advantage because they both knew where it was, and Ragan was closer to the CD. Enzo called Ragan a big baby, who was crying by himself.

Hayden said that he was glad that Enzo at least won something. Britney said her strategy is to stay in close with the guys. Hayden said that he thinks he may go up in Enzo's place. Britney said that it would be the safest week for her to Hayden, but she admits in the DR that she doesn't trust Hayden and Enzo. Hayden claims that he is okay with going up, but then he says in DR that the pawn is the one that goes home. Britney asks Lane who is going up. Britney tells Lane that Hayden said that he thinks it's 100% that he will go up. Britney says that if Lane puts her up, she will be going home. Meanwhile Hayden and Enzo want Britney to go up so they can backdoor Britney.

Back to the punishments. The first was no cups or silverware. The second punishment was that the houseguests has to use a sock puppet to speak for 12 hours. If they don't use the sock puppet, they are Have Nots. The sock puppets look like the houseguests. Enzo's was balding, Britney's was blonde, Hayden's had a mop of hair, Lane's had a hat, and Ragan's had a bow tie. Ragan was by himself cyring, and talking to his sock puppet, and saying that he wanted his life back. It was really lame seeing the sock puppets talk. Enzo wasn't good at having the sock puppet talk when he talked. The "big" conversation was Enzo not understanding golf.

It seems that Kathy and Brendon were the only ones cleaning the house, and it was nasty. So Britney got out a trash bin, and started throwing things out. It seems that the fridge was really stinking. There was a great deal of waste. It seems they opened food containers, and then never finished it. After Britney cleaned the kitchen by herself, Hayden came to wheel out the trash can. The third punishment was another lame one. Ragan thought it would be a combo of Brendon and Rachel. The punishment was to dance whenever music played. The punishment was 12 hours. The punishments were the lamest thing ever! Hayden can't dance worth a darn. They also thrown in classical music. Lane asks Hayden if he is okay with going up. Lane doesn't want to put Britney up because he doesn't trust Enzo and Hayden to not put out Britney. But Lane realizes that is bad for him. Lane asks Britney about going up. Britney said that she doesn't want to go up because she thinks that the guys will vote her out. Britney said that she knows that Lane likes Hayden better. Britney tells Lane that she think Hayden has more friends in the jury house and that she can't win against Hayden. It would be interesting if they backdoor Hayden this week.

Time for the veto ceremony. Enzo hopes that Lane puts up Britney. Hayden doesn't want to go on the block because a couple of deals could be made, and Hayden could go out. Enzo removes himself. Lane starts by saying that it's an amazing group, and that it sucked to nominate a third person. Lane nominated Hayden. Hayden knows that Ragan is desperate to stay in the house, and he may be making plans to stay in the house. Lane said that he wants to go to the final two with Britney because Lane thinks that he can beat Britney in the final two. Hmm, I think the folks in the jury house would vote for Britney over Lane. We'll see. I hopw Hayden goes to the jury tomorrow, because he is just plain annoying!
