Adam Jasinski, the guy who won CBS' reality show
Big Brother last year (
Big Brother 9), just got
arrested for using his prize money on something he shouldn't have.
He used the $500,000 to buy a bunch of oxycodone pills and was arrested Saturday in Boston for trying to resell them. Spending a half mil on pills and then reselling them? This sounds like the worst business decision
ever.

(S11E27) Yep, we're nearing the end of
Big Brother 11 as the final four gets chopped down to the final three. It's not the final three (or four) I would have imagined at the beginning of the season, but rarely does my first impression hold out. As the very pregnant Julie Chen mentioned at the top of the show, there is one representative from each original clique left in the game. I also wouldn't have predicted that she'd last the season. But she proved me wrong.

(S11E17) I think Michele's eyes are glazing over and she's put herself into a coma state as she listens to Chima rant on about Russell in the head of household room. You see, Chima isn't over her loss of power to Jeff's use of the coup d'etat in the
Big Brother 11 eviction this past week. How dare Jeff change her nominations! How dare America screw her over by voting to give Jeff the power! How dare they evict Jessie (the man, the myth, the legend) instead of her choice of Russell, the terrorist. Mind you, those are her words ... not mine.
