Big Brother 14: Timing is Everything
Good evening, BB Lovers! I hope you've had a wonderful Sunday! As I look in on the HGs right now, the tension seems to have eased a teensy bit..Give it a few minutes. There's 500 grand on the line.
Shana Tova u'Metuka to everyone!☺
As you may know, the Jewish New Year, or Rosh haShanah, begins Sunday at sundown and ends Tuesday evening, about an hour after sundown. It's a happy holiday and a prayerful one.
The timing isn't great as far as this season of Big Brother goes, but I need to make a choice, and as much as I love BB and blogging, this is a time when I need to be introspective and in synagogue.
I'll return to covering the live feeds late Tuesday night for our final BB14 Overnight Report Wednesday Morning, and we'll have ourselves a heck of a Finale Party here on Wednesday!! Followed by live coverage of the backyard interviews on Superpass!!
So.. Until the holiday's over Tuesday night, please mind the critters on the live feeds, and keep Ian away from the Mist... :0)
For the record, I'd be equally happy if Ian or Dan won this season. Ian pulls at my heart, and Dan is just a beast at this! I adore them both in Big Brother, and I think they've both played an amazing game. I just wish there could be a tie for the big prize...

Been refreshing a lot, wanting to ask how your friend is doing. Hope her surgery went well.
Happy Holiday Carolyn, you deserve a break.
(((ltcmek))) Thank you so much! So far, so good..
(((Sam))) Thank you!!!
ok.. I have 7 minutes til sunset.. i'm off to shul.
Big Dishy Family Hugs to all who see this!! And Happy New Year to all who are celebrating!
I'll be back Tuesday after the holiday..
"So I find it pointless to argue with you, because this is a game, and personal issues have no part in it."
*cough cough*
*pot--->kettle*
Have a happy Rosh Hashannah! Stay well and thank you for all that you do for us fans.
Happy and Sweet New Year to you. Enjoy this time of reflection. I respect and honor your decision.
Carolyn
I wonder if Dani would feel it acceptable for you to win BB. She does have some deep seeded discriminatory beliefs. Thank goodness their wasnt a Muslim in the house this season
Enjoy the latkes.... I'll be making mine in the morning...
First time ever not having a BB viewing party. I wish we had a place where we could all get together and chat. I'll miss reading the comments during the show.
I completely agree I love Ian he just pulls at my heart strings and is a good person. Dan I just love too he makes such sacrifices and loves this game with everything he has. I hate to think the jury keep it against him personally instead of judging based on strategy and moves. The funny thing is Ian would have been voted out 1st week if not for immunity and Dan would have gone the 2nd week if dani got evicted so props to both underdogs! Good game! Dani well ppl may not like her but one thing she was loyal to her coach for better or worse... Love this site couldn't live without it each bb season! Thank u Caroline thank u all!!
Happy holidays carol! Thanks for everything!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, Caro!
Agree with you about Dan and Ian, but I want Dan to be the one who wins final HoH over Ian, which would probably mean Ian leaves, but if Ian wins, I won't really be all too upset -- not at all!
Happy New Year Carolyn and any others celebrating it :-) I hope you have a wonderful holiday!
Happy Holidays to you from a Non-Practicing Jew by Marriage! Signed up for the free three day feeds ...been watching since Saturday night ... I don't know how you guys do it ... so THANKS again for all you do! (((X0X0X0)))
Enjoy ur celebration! I hope ur friend is doing well today...but she'll be hurting more today (altho I'm sure she's medicated!)
Take care everyone...tt u tues!
And a BiG Happy NeW YeaR to you too Carolyn. I'm celebrating also. Ya don't have to be Jewish to enjoy a holiday that gives you apples dipped in honey!
What year is this in the Jewish calendar? I can't remember but I believe it's something above 5500.
Have a great time with family. No one deserves it more than you.
I am sure I won't be the only one commenting blindly here as the F3 Critters stir up trouble. In fact, Danielle is doing it as I type, trying to guilt Ian into taking her to F2, giving him almost threats. Actually some or most are threats.
She's giving Ian the same threats she gave Dan about votes, that he will lose 5 to 2 if he take Dan. Pretty sure she told Dan the exact same thing if he takes Ian.
Oh, how the worm turns. Worm, thy name is Danielle.
Actually that's not really true. I don't think Danielle's luck is changing. Maybe I should look up a quote about karma.
Party Horns and fireworks for everyone!!

From the last section:
0d17a836-fff6-11e1-903a-000bcdca4d7a said...
I have nurse friends that are saying Dani is hurting their reputation, being sooo gullible!
Are we watching the same show with the same cast? Gullible is not a word I associate with Danielle.
I can only think of words such as conniving, caballing, calculating, collusive, conspiring, contriving, designing, plotting, scheming, and evil incarnate. I see how more nurses would be upset about their sullied reputation if compared to the way Danielle has played this game from Day 1.
Danielle has now spent 50 minutes and still going telling Ian how furious she will be if he cuts her and takes Dan and how she will rage. Shane would never vote for Ian either if that happens. On and on and on.
I want to put a flea in Ian's ear to point out that if Danielle is in the F2, Shane wouldn't vote for him for sure. She would be the one to get Shane's vote. Wake up Ian! Smell the ....... I can't say that here. Wake up and smell the coffee, Ian!
Oh Em Gee. Ian just gave an eye roll from hell. It's obvious he does have that flea in his ear. Her rants are making no sense because she is basically telling him he will lose to either of them. But then she turns it around and tells him he would win against her without taking a breathe.
Are we going to have to endure 48+ hours of this? Someone give her a horse tranquilizer that will put her to sleep until an hour before the Finale starts on Wednesday.

HAHA! 9:56 PM BBT Feed 1 and 2
Ian is away from the beast and getting some much needed hammock time. After about 7 minutes there (he started at 50 after) he talks to the camera after she goes back in from picking up some laundry he says: That bitter s**t. *then he mumbles a bit and I can't pick it up.* And finishes with "I don't respond to threats, period. Done!"
I expect him to say more but I have to get that in while I remember word for word.
:o)
GaYToR
Ian swinging in the hammock while Danielle is fuming on the living room sofa with her eyes cut to the right, staring into the camera.
Ian makes some guttural noises and says "Playing the game with children. Playing the game with children."I am making these posts as they happen so the time stamp you see should be the BBT and my cam is on Quad, Ian 1 & 2 with Danielle 3 & 4. No sign of Dan. He's probably conjuring up a stronger batch of The Mist.
:o)
GaYToR
HAA! @BB15LiveUpdates tweeted this. I didn't catch it myself but it now makes sense why she as staring at the camera.
Dani: Can I plz get in the DR, Plz. I am trying to stay calm. #BB14 pic.twitter.com/cMMbtFdI
If I were the poor PA forced to work a Sunday evening shift, I probably wouldn't want to unlock my door to that either.

Happy New Year One and All..:)
I am so late, and I am so sorry...been sick..:(...but you were in my thoughts and Prayers..:)
Very disappointed in your website this season. It has always been my go to site for BB. I had to find other sites for updates this season, due to the lack of timely updates on this site. Hope next year you decide to be as involved in updates as you once were.

Thank you for all your hard work. I REALLY enjoy reading your blog. Happy holiday to you and your family. White light & energy sent your way for good healthy and happiness to all!
In blessings & light,

Hi Blue :) Argue with who?
Welcome back Caro. Prayers for Hope for a rapid recovery.
A big thank you to GaYToR for his updates since my laptop has been off since just before sunset Sunday evening.
I did do my celebrating with my brother Jon early on Sat during his stop in on his trip back to MI. I did also have doctor appts both yesterday and today.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow's big finish, but so sad to see our chats come to an end until next summer.
Caro, is there a way you could keep the chats going to wean us away from the critters?
Thank you tripl!! :)
Everyone, I was all ready to go and post something, but there's nothing doing at the moment, so we're getting chatty over on facebook.
If you'd like to join us, please do! If you're not a friend yet, add me! http://facebook.com/bbdish
Sad, Sad, It's the last 24hrs. my family will finally get to see me again...lol.
Thank you everyone for the great updates and the wonderfull commentaries, those are the best.
To all the fishers you make this site the best. I love seeing the same peopleem yr after yr.
see you at BB15.
oh yea...I really have no idea who Dan is going to take, Carolyn?
Carolyn: "Hi Blue :) Argue with who?"
"So I find it pointless to argue with you, because this is a game, and personal issues have no part in it."
MarkRollTide wrote it to Rob.
:)
Oh, the irony.
I.just want everyone to know who doggie dani for what she said to Ian...pretty much she said everything Dan told her to say...which is sad...bit what choice does she have she knows Ian won't take her..so her only chance is Dan...and he telling the live feeder he might throw the last hoh..because his consioe would.let him not take.dani...but if he throws it isn't that the same.thing
Welcome back Carolyn. I haven't seen Lessa post lately, is she still with us?
Danielle is sure working on Dan and especially Ian to make F2. She is so funny to watch. She was ironing some clothes in the Storage Room and stopped a couple of times to check her butt in the mirror. Doesn't she realize how many people are watching their every move.
Carolyn! Happy Holidays to you! I so hope you enjoyed your time with the family and friends. You have worked like a .... well, a .. I don't even know what ... for us all season long and we so appreciate all that you do. Hard to believe it is almost over. Wow! What a season, huh, what a season.
Anyway, I am hoping for a Dan or Ian win ... nothing against Danielle. I think she has played one heck of a game with her "I-hate-Dan" and "your're-all-gonna-face-the-wrath-of-my-daddy-if-I-don't-win" acts ... she is masterful. I don't know if I could have played it off as well or for as long as she has done all season long. Still, I do give the overall edge to the boys for game moves and strategy.
Best of luck to the F/3 though. At this point anything can happen .. and it usually does ... mwahahahahah ....
Welcome back Carolyn. You were so missed. However, that your faith comes first is a testament to what an exceptional person you are. I hope you had a nice reflective holiday and feel rested.
In case you missed it, FB to 9/15 at 10:43 p.m. on 1/2. Dan is at the table by himself (Dani is in the shower and I believe Ian is in the DR). Anyway, Dan is looking at the memory wall thinking about votes. He says he can only win if he goes to the end with Ian and says he may throw Part 3 to Ian. Think he's playing with the live feeders or do you think it's possible? The thing is, I don't think he would have to throw Part 3since Ian is likely to win it anyway.
I've been listening for the past 2 hours now, but there doesn't seem much point at the moment of opening a post.
There will DEFINITELY be an overnight report in the morning tho.. And a Super Duper Live Finale Viewing Party tomorrow night!
And.. It's not a *real* Big Brother 14 BBDish Overnight Report unless I wake up at 2:30am eastern to start writing it... so.. 1 last time for the season!!!
::ithinkicanithinkicanithinkicanchoooochooooo:::
Rats already--I'm getting sad!!!! Another season over almost. Hope Ian takes home the $500,000.
Good, we don't want.people like you on this site anyways. This site is the best one out there. I tried to goto a.different site while Caroline was away for her faith, and could not even find one. Caro, you guys are doing a great job, keep up your great work.

Even volunteer workaholics are allowed to observe religious holidays...just like paid civil servants and such....
Thank u again for all ur hard work!!
Mwaaaaaa!!

Are you freaking serious? What an immature and disrespectful thing to say.
How on earth could you publish Rob Tan's comment about Danielle hating Muslims? That is dispecable. There is no racist to Danielle or her family. Stating such is Slander.
Zero respect for someone to bring something so wrong up
You are pathetic. She doesn't have a racist bone in her body. How dare you , how freaking dare you try to start something that is completely untrue. It shows what a worthless human being you are.
Personal attacks like that based on lies should not be published. What a disgrace. People like you who want to make up stuff, are nothing but immature classless pieces of garbage.
Carolyn, you should be ashamed of publishing that. Ashamed.
I missed you :( was hoping you might stay up late since there won't be much going on tomorrow.
Hi Carolyn, everyone
I hope you had a wonderful holiday Carolyn and any other Disher of the same faith.
It's wonderful to hear your friend Hope is on the mend.
Have really missed the Dish and all of you. Hard to watch the feeds looking for those few hours or minutes when something actually happens without being able to talk to someone else.
Hoping for Ian to win part 3 HOH and send Dani packing. Then hoping everyone besides her vote for Ian to win. That would show her and Dan.
Until tomorrow, Dani is very bitter, Dan hasn't stopped scheming for a sec. and Ian will be so happy to be out of that house me thinks.
Rise and Shine. It's 2:59 EDT. You should be up and writing.
I'm listening for anything good but not hearing it.
Ian is the last to drink. I want him tanked so he will tell Danielle off one last time and send her to bed to cry herself to sleep.
That would make my #BB14 #BBLF experience complete for 2012.
:o)

'Twas the night before finale and all through the house...
Danielle was everywhere fishing for compliments. Delusional Danielle must have validation (and she must be the center of attention.)
I pity the next fool that doesn't validate her parking.
Dan is bouncing all over the place trying to keep the other two happy but I think he's finally run out of a key ingredient of his Mist. His last hurrah seemed to be last night on the feeds when he got Danielle feeling sorry for him as he was laying in bed putting himself down and calling himself a failure. I never bought it and sure enough, as soon as Danielle left he turned to the camera and gave us his grin.
Ian can't quit rocking but that's OK. We all do our best thinking in the strangest ways. I hope it works for him and he is better at Part 3 of the Final HoH than I think he will be. I'm as nervous about it as he and Dan must be.
If Dan wins it all and takes Danielle to F2, I'll have to accept it because that is what he came there to do. I won't have to like it because she isn't deserving. To see her in that F2 Chair will be quite disconcerting.
Ian stay strong. Don't entertain throwing that last comp. It won't be an easy one for you or maybe it will. You might just surprise us all and show you know what everyone thinks.
Now they have all settled down for their final night's sleep. Their stress and fears are making me weep.
This has been a season I've enjoyed the most in so long. I don't think I have liked a winner since BB4.
Dan is up, has peed and is having a seat outside. I expect he is about to talk to us so I may be back.
:o)
GaYToR
Dan is talking to us on Feed 3 at 1:28 AM BBT.
:o)
GaYToR
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will partake of The Mist for it comforts me.
And Dan has done it to me again. Just as I had decided I didn't want him even going to F2, he puts a spell on me.
He just finished practicing his Final Plea to the jury and he brings it together quite nicely. He's been going over it for about the last 45 minutes and working on cutting it down to the time allotment he will be given.
I think from what I was hearing that he may throw the comp to Ian so he will be assured of Danielle's vote and Shane's vote in kind. I'm not sure he can pull a 7 - 0 vote again but this speech could make it happen.
I'm not completely in the mist as of this moment but I can smell it creeping ever so closer and at full strength once again.
I'll let Carolyn deal with the transcription.
I think he's back in bed for the night and on that note I believe I will do the same.
I have to be well rested for tomorrow night's finale, and for the premiere of the new season of Survivor. Zzzz Zzzz Zzzz
:o)
GaYToR
