Big Brother episode 7/15/26 - SPOILERS!

Jason, Jason, Jason...

I'm so disappointed.

You were one of my favorites. 

Listen, I am not an Angela fan. 

But she didn't deserve what you did to her. 

No one does. 

It was hurtful and unnecessary. 

Play the game, but don't play with people's emotions like that. 

Angela has cried a lot in the Big Brother house, but this time I understand her pain. 

You took advantage of her as an LGBTQ ally / family member, which is straight up horrible.  

Too bad for you that you bragged to the wrong person. 

You're safe this week. 

But your days in the house could be numbered. 

Never forget, Karma can be a bitch.

Big Brother 2026 - Premiere - SPOILERS!

 What a wild ride the first night of Big Brother was!

Yay for Rick Devens from Survivor crossing over to BB. 

I think he'll be a fun addition. 

Boo for Angela being added to the cast. 

I'll remove my booing if she decides not to be bully like she was the first time she played the game. 

And THANK GOODNESS Rachel is NOT a houseguest this season!!

Her brief appearance was more than enough for me. 

So, who is the third "celebrity"? 

Everyone is saying it's Dee from Survivor. 

I guess we'll find out tomorrow night. 

My early favorites from this season: 

Jason - yes, I know him as Selena from "RuPaul's Drag Race." 

Yay, the first drag queen on BB! 

I hope the houseguests are nice to him.

LaTrice - I gotta root for the oldest houseguest. 

She's close to my age, but she looks a lot younger!

I like her personality so far. 

I also have to root for the two Texas guys - Chuck and Barrett.

We'll see if I still feel this way a few weeks into the season.

Fourth of July

Happy semiquincentennial!

If you are old enough, where were you on July 4, 1776?

I was in Estes Park, Colorado, on a driving trip throughout the state with my mom, dad, and sister. We also went to Denver, Colorado Springs, and Carson City, among other places. We visited the Mint, had dinner at the Broadmoor Hotel, and panned for gold.

I was eight years old.
We lived in San Antonio at the time.

The next summer we took another driving trip, this time to California. We visited Los Angeles, Bakersfield, and San Francisco among other places. We went to Disneyworld, saw the California redwoods, explored Fisherman's Warf, and saw the Pacific Ocean.

These trips were important and long-lasting family memories.
My dad passed away in December of 1977.
He was 41 years old.

Live life.
Make memories.
Love others.
