Hi, Rita wrote: "BTW, when you choose to use the Firefox add on that allows it to work like Internet Explorer you are actually using Internet Explorer." I'm no expert here, but I *think* you may be speaking of the WindowsUpdate extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/195) rather than the extension I mentioned that links to the WindizUpdate site. In fact, the Windiz site's "Why Use W.U. ?" link at the right of its homepage (http://www.windizupdate.com/) notes sarcastically in the list of advantages of using the product: "No more unwanted spyware -- Microsoft Internet Explorer can finally be removed from your computer (if that were possible)." So, the WindizUpdate extension apparently is 'free' of all dependence on IE. And as I noted previously, for me, WindizUpdate is very fast. When I would go to the MS site and manually scan the computer for updates, it would take 10-15 minutes for IE to complete that task alone !! Windiz takes less than a minute !! :-) I don't know if that would be the case if I were still really using IE for the (manual) update I do when I use FF and Windiz. Scott My apologies, Rita, if I have misunderstood and you weren't commenting on the Windiz extension at all, but were *intending* to address the 'embedded IE' type of extensions for FF !

I record BBAD. Fast forward through a lot of boring stuff. I didn't think that about Paul getting the first temptation. He was the only person America knew at that time and he is very popular from last season. He has a lot of followers who were probably all voting. The other new people had no followers. Kevin said that on BBAD he was not surprised Paul got the first temptation because he has such a following. The one that I find suspicious is Jessica getting the last one. It put a lot of power in their hands and I think they knew that Cody was coming back in. I think Josh has totally lost his mind. I am afraid production is going to kill him and hide his body lol. He spent the whole episode of BBAD in the blue couch room talking to the cameras and crying and ranting and just going nuts. I feel sorry for the production team that has to watch that. Yes I definitely saw Alana's bare butt it was disgusting. She is always showing her boobs. She wears those cut off shirts with no bra and they hang out the bottom gross. I guess she thinks everyone wants to see that. I think it is interesting that production has these strange rules for them. Like they can't have cranberry juice after 11 o'clock, and they shout out No Napping if anyone is falling asleep. Dom stayed in bed the majority of the time. And they rarely let them go outside this season. Jessica tried to take a chair from inside to the backyard to sit and watch the pool game, they said no chairs were allowed outside. Some of the rules are just weird. Yes Cody's eyes do look weird. I wonder if he wears contacts? They look irritated.

I want Paul to win he is the only one that has actually been making an effort to play the game. He has won more than anyone. He was excellent last year too and should have won. He is playing a different game than last year too. The other option for me is Kevin and Alex. But Kevin has not won anything except the $25 thousand which took no effort lol. Definitely do not want raven or Matt or Elena to win. Elena is disgusting right now she thinks of herself only.

debo, the comment Raven is referring to is worth looking up. It was a horrible thing for Jason to say and I can't even bring myself to repeat it. Sadly enough, Jason is one of the nicest ones in the house IMO, so what's that say about the rest of them??? lol Raven, like debo, I hope you can find a few moments to focus on something fun instead of the horror you have been going through. The house has been in complete chaos this week! (surprise!) It's all been about Jason's HOH and his winning POV. Raven and Matt were on the block. Jason promised Raven he would be taking her down. The original plan, or so Jason thought, was to take down Raven and put up Kevin, but still send Matt home. They were going to put up Kevin just to scare him, to put him in his place. Jason asked Kevin if he would go up against Matt, with Matt going home. Kevin didn't want to. The rest of the house was going to go behind Jason's back and vote out Kevin. Jason kept the noms the same, upsetting the whole house. Nearly every conversation has been a Kevin bashing party. After Jason kept noms the same, Raven went spastic... Matt went spastic. Matt, who hasn't had much to say to anyone all this time, finally found his voice, going off on both Jason and Kevin. There was a huge confrontation between Matt and Kevin that went on and on and on. Jason has been really uncomfortable about everyone's reactions. (imagine how he's going to feel after leaving the house and having to deal with the comments he made about Kev's wife and kids!) The whole house has been very mean to Kevin all week. Poor Kev, bless his heart, his best friend is whoever he is talking to at the moment. Whoever he is talking to he is swearing he will never vote against them. He just wants to be liked. He's being a total PIA, trying to cover up things he did and said, (mostly the 25K and who he did/didn't tell) and lying about it instead of owning up to anything. He's very mopey and mostly keeping to himself. Paul continues to work each of the pairs. I think Jason is beginning to become suspicious of Alex, as debo pointed out. Josh also is questioning things Paul is doing but he doesn't seem to be following his instincts, instead feeling Paul is loyal to him and Xmas. Paul instigated Josh going off on Kev but it seems like Josh and Kev have gotten past it for the moment. But they all want Kev gone for their own personal reasons. Matt.. good Lord I'll be glad to see him gone! He, a HN, has been breaking all the HN rules so he will get penalty votes and be voted out instead of Raven. He is showering with hot water, eating whatever he wants, not sleeping in HN room. BB keeps telling him to "stop that" but he tells them to f off. BB is now just letting a lot of it slide, not calling him out. Matt has been trying to get Kev to go off and possibly get kicked out of the house. Alex continues to be her same disgusting self. She took Kev's slop and either threw it out or hid it, making Kev think it was Raven that did it. Then Alex berated Jason for trying to help Kev make more slop. Paul, still playing all sides, made the slop for Kevin. Christmas continues to cozy up with Kev, go off on him, fuss him out, cozy up again, share info, then go and tell the rest of the house. I think I want her to win even less than Raven.
