love at dim sight!

Interesting episode of Survivor. Thought at first that Aitu were making a huge mistake by throwing the challenge so early in the game (actually, never a good idea at any time in the game!). But then Billy opened his mouth and went on about his love, Candace, and how she was motivating him to continue playing. And I thought his biggest problem was his laziness! He's delusional, too. He didn't get that when Candace said, "we love you" she meant it in a kind way, to encourage him. He didn't hear the word we, or understand what she meant. So add dumb to that list of problems. Though Ozzy annoys me, he's a better player than Billy. At least he's rational (immature and headstrong, certainly, but not delusional). I smirked when I saw that both women changed their votes to boot Billy. They realized how necessary it was to jettison the crazy heavy-metal musician. Alas, the downside to this is that I'll never get to see what would have happened when Billy met Sekou (another crazy musician). And Yul rocks! The clues to the idol were pretty simple, but considering how dim some of the other players are, Yul was the one who had the best chance of finding the idol. Let's just hope that he doesn't decide to reveal his possession of the idol, and turn other players against him. I think he's smart enough to know when the right moment to use the idol will be. I love how Survivor has turned Exile Island around, and given the losing team the choice. Quite delightful to see the reactions of the winners, when Jeff told them how it was going to work.
