I'm not sure that I follow. Who should Howie have put up? The moronic move to me was, if the group wanted James gone so bad, why did it not occur to them to load up James and Sarah's pinatas?

First, I missed Saturday's episode, so I can't comment on the PoV competition.

That said, Howie should have put up two of the other alliance's members. Reson being, according to last week's HoH (the one where ppl eliminated others after answering the questions right), James and Sarah were both loyal to the "Soverign 5" based on who they chose to eliminate. Regardless of James or Sarah getting booted, now his alliance is down to 3, he, Rachel, and Janelle (with possibly Kaysar coming back in tonight). Contrast that with the other alliance who now have at least 5 members (Maggie, Ivette, Beau, April, and Jenn) with the posibility of Cappy coming back tonight.

Whichever way you slice it, Howie's team is now going to be in the numerical minority, possibly with a 6-3 defecit, making it much much harder for any of them to make it to the end.

IMO from watching this show for many years, the best thing to do at this point in the game is to keep the numbers in your favor.

Check out http://jam.canoe.ca/Television/TV_Shows/B/BigBrother6/ and click on the BB6 Live Chat icon to the right of the page. This is a great site to find out what happens on the live feeds. FWIW, the guy who runs it agrees with me that Howie was not looking long-term in his nomination decisions this week.

Also, this thought just came to mind. Assume for a moment that you have never watched Big Brother in your life and have no idea about the show. Also assume that you're a freeper who clicks on this link thinking you're reading about the Minutemen and illegal immigration. Can you imagine what these people must be thinking? "PoV, HoH, pinatas, who the f$%^ are Howie, Janelle, and Cappy? Are they leaders of the Minutemen?"

I think it's pretty funny.

My guess is that "bayou" means he's near the Texas, Louisiana border and "rod" is short for "Rodriquez."

What he needs to do is change his to lightning rod because that's what his relentless pandering to illegal aliens has made him.

"Do they call themselves the Minutemen because they only sit in their lawn chairs watching for babysitters for one minute a day?"

We're just getting started!

Are you nuts?
