Big Brother Recap: The Infinite Wisdom of Lawon

After Sunday’s nominations of Rachel and Jeff , Kalia put herself in a tight spot. Yes, she stuck to her guns, but long term, she’d become a big target. What we didn’t count on was Lawon being thrown in the mix. By his own doing, it turned out. We’d been waiting for this lovable crazy man to make a move for weeks, but no one could have seen this coming. THG recaps last night’s Big Brother installment below … Rachel has an epic pity party after the nominations, and without Brendon there to talk her down, it just gets worse and worse. Plus 9 , because as painful as she is, it’s entertaining when a human lowers the behavioral bar this much. Okay, it’s getting annoying. Please vote her off this week. Minus 5 . Shelly tries to calm her down, telling her not to chase after Daniele or cry so openly because “you have more class than that.” LOLOLOLOL. Plus 16 . Jeff just goes off about how he wants people to step up, pick a side and go to war. Minus 7 , because last week he was Mister Non-Confrontational. Jeff also ignores that he has people (he thinks) lining up to follow himself and Jordan. Yet Kalia joining Daniele is incomprehensible to him? Minus 6 . The veto battle is modeled after Sisyphus, who pushed a rock up a hill only to have it roll back every time. Fitting, considering the potential return of half of Brenchel after tonight. You just can’t push them out! Plus 3 . Symbolism aside, it’s a boring competition, however. Minus 5 . Only Jeff and Adam have a real shot. Jeff triumphs! Plus 8 . Jeff gets props for boasting that he’d win the veto, then doing so. That’s gotta be so demoralizing for Kalia. But Minus 7 for being kind of a sore winner about it, and because this now forces Kalia to use her brain again. Instead of putting up Jordan, guaranteeing Rachel’s exit and that no more than half of the evil duo would be in the house after tonight’s twist, Kalia tries to think of a way to fix things with Jorff, which is never happening. Minus 14 . Kalia is seriously dumb enough to trust that Rachel, Jeff and Jordan won’t gun for her if she makes this right. Enter … Lawon! This ought to be good! Plus 5 . Lawon volunteers himself not just as a pawn, but TO BE EVICTED, as he feels whoever goes will return with some special power. And he’s serious! Minus 21 . Daniele and Kalia see this as a change to make a deal with The Others. Daniele’s not stupid, though. We can only imagine what she really thinks. Plus 6 . Another Minus 4 for Kalia’s inability to handle the pressure of HoH. Shelly keeps playing both sides like it’s her job. Ruthless! Minus 9 . Jeff calls Kalia’s nomination stupid. Had she put up Jordan, of course, Jeff would’ve also termed that stupid. Minus 4 , because she’s doing what he wanted! Lawon declares in the diary room that wants to act like he’s gone crazy. Act?! Plus 19 , because whether he’s an incredible strategist, an idiot savant or the biggest idiot in Big Brother history no one can call him uninteresting. EPISODE TOTAL: -16. SEASON TOTAL: EVEN. Was Lawon’s move the dumbest of all time?

The Dougherty Gang: Arrested!

The Dougherty Gang, a group of troubled 20-something misfits who captivated the nation’s media with a long, alleged crime spree, has been arrested. It was at about 9:40 a.m. on Wednesday when an 11-minute car chase between the Colorado State Patrol and the three fugitive siblings came to an end. Lee Grace Dougherty, 29, Ryan Edward Dougherty, 21, and half-brother Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26 – drove off the road after going over 100 mph. Their stolen Subaru Impreza hit a guardrail and then flipped over. Lee Grace tried to escape by shooting at officers and eventually got shot in the leg. He suffered a minor injury. All three were then apprehended. “They were extremely dangerous,” said FBI spokesperson Dave Joly. “They’ve engaged law enforcement multiple times with weapons fire, and we and state patrol took fire. These three are the baddest of the bad.” Ultimately, the publicity they generated caused their downfall . Earlier Wednesday, the Pueblo County, Colo., Sheriff’s Dept. received a tip that one of them was in a nearby Wal-Mart, trying to buy ammunition. Based on an additional tip later in the morning, a deputy located their car at a campground near Colorado City, about two hours south of Denver. The trio took off once the deputy attempted to stop them, but according to the Denver Post , they were spotted at a gas station shortly thereafter. That’s where the chase began. The pursuit came to a halt thanks to “stop sticks,” which are Teflon-coated quills that troopers had set up on the road to puncture the trio’s tires. After their arrest, officers took the siblings to a nearby health center for evaluation. Thankfully, no police officers were hurt during the chase. The miscreants’ had begun their crimes, authorities say, in central Florida when they allegedly shot a police officer who tried to pull them over. Later that day, they allegedly robbed a Georgia bank. All three had existing criminal records, which included domestic violence, hit and run, marijuana possession and driving with a suspended license. What was behind their alleged criminal impulses? Who knows. Barbara Bell, their mother, says she will be “making no comment at this time.”

San Francisco: Smut Capital of America

Hey San Franciscans! Do you like smut? Of course you do, you’re reading the Mr. Skin blog. Well, you’re in luck, because the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts is giving the art of skinema some artsy-fartsy “credibility” with its new nude series, Smut Capital of America: San Francisco’s Sex Cinema Revolution . The series celebrates San Francisco’s role as the first city in the United States to effectively legalize pornography in the late 60’s, as documented in filmmaker Michael Stabile ‘s as-yet unfinished documentary Smut Capital of America . San Francisco being San Francisco, there are some sausage-on-sausage skinema screenings that most Mr. Skin fans will probably want to skip, but for the connoisseur of cooch there’s still a variety of vaginal delights to be had: On July 21 at 7:30, Yerba Buena will be screening Pornography in Denmark , a 1969 film that sexplores the then-taboo topic of pornography by showing dozens of Danish girls (Denmark was the first country to decriminalize pornography) doinking dudes and snacking on each others’ Scandinavian snatches. Then on August 25 at 7:30, Yerba Buena will be screening Resurrection of Eve (1973), a classic sexample of ’70s smut starring Behind the Green Door ‘s Marilyn Chambers as a woman who discovers the joy of orgies after a serious car accident. Marilyn is xxx-plosive in this film, considered one of the best by legendary porn purveyors The Mitchell Brothers. So if you find yourself in the City by the Bay this summer, stroll on down to the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and slap your sausage in style with these all-time classics of the skinema. Just wait until after the screening, wouldja?
