DANIELE AND DICK WIN BIG BROTHER-ZACH EVICTED, AND SHOWS SOME CLASS

I was pretty rough on Zach in earlier posts because of what he said to Dick and Daniele, and much of the mean things I said about Zach, I retract, because , in the end, even though he won the first of the three HOH competitions, he was acted very classy, and complimented Dick for his herculean effort during the competition. And, Dick certainly did show both heart and physical courage and endurance. Dick is not in great shape. He smokes, is 44 years old, and doesn't do a lot of exercise . That being said, he pushed his body even beyond its ordinary limits, and reached down deep to last as long as he did.

But, all's well that ends well, and Big Brother 8 could not have ended better. It doesn't matter WHO the jury votes for, a Donato wins. Dick also showed great class in his goodbye message to Zach, and Zach admitted he did not expect that from Dick, and it almost brought a tear to his eye.

I know that many people don't like Dick because of what they perceive as bullying, as tormenting, or overbearing behavior. But, as Zach pointed out as he left the house, although he did not agree with Dick's tactics, Dick was still in the house as part of the final two, and he (Zach) was leaving. Dick has showed courage, and for the most part, in your face honesty. One thing you had to admit, Dick didn't have to say bad things behind your back...he would say them to your face. This kind of "in your face" honesty, is really unheard of in the Big Brother house.

Love him or hate him, you should admit Dick is an interesting character, and his performances in the house where he ragged on other house guests, were like a train wreck or car wreck. It's awful and ugly, but you just have to turn your head and watch it.

By definition, those of us who are fans of Big Brother, are a group of "lookey loos", the same as people who slow down on the freeway to gawk at the car wreck on the side of the road.

I hope that Dick and Daniele, the two DDs, take the 100 grand the loser gets, and the 500 grand the winner gets, add it together, and split it equally such that each takes 300 thousand.

But, the real win is NOT the money. It is not the proverbial "15 minutes of fame" which Marshall McLuhan spoke of. No, the true "win" of their time in the house is encapsulated in the way that Dick and Daniele interacted during that time when Dick was withstanding the freezing rain...every second he was fighting to win for his daughter. Daniele reassured him that even if he didn't win that competition, it was all right and she loved him. In the end, she was right. They lost that battle, but won the war.

The real value of their time in the house was that their fractured and battered relationship seems to be mended, and on the way to becoming stronger by the day.

God Bless Daniele.

God Bless Dick.

Rock on, Both of You!
