BIG BROTHER LIVE FEED SPOILERS FROM TODAY

This will include who won part one of HOH comp started on yesterday's show.

Btw, there is no show until the final next wed at 9:30pm

Anyhow it was pretty obvious that this comp was not for Adam. He is too big to stand on that little step. And not too good at endurance. It was going to be between P and R. And it was. Adam jumped off early. Although in this case the comp was not just about endurance. It was also about who could stand on the spinning thing. It made me want to throw up watching it. And apparently P and A were not feeling well Anyhow Rachel was the winner. So now A and P will go up in part 2 of the hoh. Maybe tonight or tomorrow. And whoever wins that will go against R to be the final hoh winner. That person will get to decide who they take to the finals.I really really want Rachel to win the final hoh and to take adam.

DR Jane, some shows start this coming week. I"m sure there is a list somewhere.

I know some shows that you don't watch are starting: Parenthood on tues, vampire diaries on thurs. I'll see if i can find a list. But most are starting the week after. I saw the dates in my sister's Entertainment Weekly.

I should have returning shows set to record, however, I do like to double check when possible.

I think I will send Matt H & ask what new shows he is interested in.  I'll share any info I get.

DR Jennifer you don't want your niece to be too smart ;)

www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/illiterate - Cachedil·lit·er·ate. adj i(l)-ˈli-t(ə-)rət\. Definition of ILLITERATE. 1. : having little or no education; especially : unable to read or write

I also tested her tonight with her french reading. I didn't think she'd be able to read too much. But she was quite good. There were some bigger french words she didn't know. But she was quite decent.

Apparently they will start reading in grade one next week (in french) and the teacher will let them read at their level. Although i think all kids but 2 can't read. So i guess their level will be pretty basic.

That definition is more what i thought. But i guess now you have to be able to comprehend a lot too.

I didn't even realize you could read like you understood what you were reading, but not understand a thing.

You are lucky you grow up learning a second language in your schools, so few do that here and it is a shame.

I actually think there is too much French in my niece's school. She only has 3 hours of English a week. Plus gym, and music. I feel like they should be learning how to read in English.

Most of the other things they do it doesn't matter what language it's done in. But i feel like none of the kids will know how to read in English. Although maybe they will pick it up once they learn to read in French.

Interesting Jennifer.  Obviously your niece will be ok with English since you read so much with her.

My Mom had a brief scare at the rehab center yesterday.  She discovered that when one is early on in taking Coumadin, one shouldn't blow one's nose too hard.  This resulted in a spectacular nosebleed which took a while to stop.  It also resulted in me researching on the web last night, review methods on how to remove blood stains from one of her favorite blouses.  Turns out that hydogen peroxide does the trick.
Yikes! Vibes she's doing better.

Just got in and had a message from my mom that one of my dad's brothers had a heart attack today. They can't operate because his kidneys aren't functioning. Doesn't look good.

Just read that Keira Knightly will be playing Anna Karenina. She was a horrible Elizabeth Bennet, so now she gets to ruin another of the best female characters in literature? What next?

Good Evening!

A good show tonight!! A sold out house. And, because, it was sold out, we started about eight minutes late. And intermission ran long too. We normally play our final note around 10:40. Tonight it was played around 10:52. -The show in the other theater started up tonight too, so were just lots of audience members mulling about.

But, again, it was a good show.
