Do It Already!
3:24pm BBT
We've been waiting all day for the Power of Veto Comp to take place, and so have the houseguests. Each of them has a different theory about what it will be. At this point, I don't care what it is, I just want them to start it already!
On a much brighter note, I'm proud to tell you, bb9dish is on the cusp of 2 million hits! We're about 10,000 away from that right now, so it'll happen within the next couple hours.
Thank you!!
When I started this during All-Stars, I really never imagined how much the site would grow. I'm extremely grateful for all of you coming and participating and telling your friends about the site.
Thank you!
Hopefully they'll get the veto show on the road sometime soon. Until then, I'll be around monitoring the conversations on the live feeds, and I'll let you know as soon as the Veto Comp starts, if anyone's head explodes in the meantime, and of course, The Veto Comp Spoiler as soon as it's a definite.
Oh yeah, as soon as the comp starts, I have a special treat for you from C=Venus. :) Can't wait to share it with you!
Thanks so much for being a part of bb9dish.
<3,
Carolyn

Have you seen this article?
Chicago Sun-Times
'Brother'-ly love runs rampant
TELEVISION | With this young cast, antics in the house are more scandalous than ever
February 29, 2008
BY PAIGE WISER pwiser@suntimes.com
"Big Brother" is watching, and he's getting an eyeful.
The ninth season of the reality show finally has caught up with the scandalous overseas editions, with something to offend everyone.
This is the youngest and best-looking cast so far. Producers must be thrilled, because they're delivering. Viewers can see the amoral antics three times a week on CBS (Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday), 24 hours a day by subscribing to the Internet live feeds, and each night on Showtime for "Big Brother After Dark."
Most recently, three housemates performed striptease performances with very little "tease." The action moved into the pool, where a makeout orgy featured interchangeable partners and simulated sex.
The house has seen the real thing, too, with one couple christening a bedroom and the community bathroom stall. When not making love, the roommates are making war, insulting each other with liberal use of the c-word.
Have they forgotten about the cameras? "When people are stressed enough -- by lack of privacy, lack of sleep -- they are less likely to self-censor their speech and behavior," says Patrice Oppliger, an assistant professor of mass communications at Boston University. "On the other hand, people who audition for these shows are often desperate for attention, so they may be creating controversy on purpose to get more camera time."
This season's theme is " 'Til Death Do You Part," with the contestants working with assigned partners. The rules require them to sleep in the same bed together. Jen, a player who's already been evicted, suspected she was paired with a black housemate named Parker because her real-life boyfriend has "issues" with interracial couples.
Amanda (sent home Wednesday) confided in her roomies that her father had committed suicide. Later, during a fight, Josh suggested she hang herself "like your father."
The Lowe's home improvement chain pulled its commercials when housemate Adam, who says he volunteers with autistic kids, referred to them as "*****."
"I can call them whatever I want," he explained. "I work with them all day, OK?"
There have been dramatic health problems this season. Allison was hospitalized for a severe allergic reaction, and Amanda, who is hypoglycemic, passed out after subsisting on the only food she was allowed, known as "slop." The cameras continued to roll as she suffered a series of seizures.
Housemate Natalie's occupation is "bikini barrista." James wears a pink Mohawk, spends his time bicycling around the world, and has been revealed to have a past in gay porn.
The oldest contestant, Sheila, was 1984's Penthouse Pet of the Year and lived with Bob Guccione for 10 years. You may remember her from an appearance as one of Scott Baio's exes on last year's "Scott Baio Is 45 ... and Single."
It can be healthy to raise issues, says Oppliger, but not like this. "I don't believe any of these shows create an atmosphere of helpful discussions," she says. Oppliger knows whereof she speaks; her book Girls Gone Skank comes out in about a month.
"It's entertainment, shock," Oppliger says. "Critics feel better if they can find a silver lining to the controversy. I personally don't think it's there."
Thank you, thank you, thank you for making BB so much better! You rock!
ARGGH this is killing me... i can't wath the live feeds at work :(
OK... now it's time to start 'nervousing' (Cowboy language)... if you are one that wants to get rid off A&R.
The word Adam used is no longer socially or politically correct. Although it is better left to history why does it nedd to be "*****" because it is not a swear word?
Apparently G-d is with the houseguests again. Nat and Sheila seem to think it will be G-d's will that they win.
I guess the big guy is taking time off from the floods and scurvy, plagues and drought, starving children and the chronically ill …. for a little BB action. Fuc*'in A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
