Michael's eviction from the house was really no surprise. I still think that he got a raw deal for his behavior, but he didn't fight his battle to stay in the house correctly, even if it was because he was up against his newfound love interest Janelle. He isolated himself and basically sealed his fate. I don't know if people noticed, but when he left, it was one of the more tense exits from the house that we have seen the last couple of seasons. A lot of people were diplomatic and hugged him and said goodbye, but Ivette and Eric did not. Ivette "kept her happy butt in the chair" and Eric walked away because Michael "never apologized" to him. I guess all of that time he was telling Michael that they were all cool was just a bunch of bull.

And what exactly does Eric want an apology for? He never tells us. Was Michael supposed to say "Uh, Eric, I'm sorry that some people came and told you I was talking about your family and you used that misinformation to plot against me, accuse me of being a sexual predator, and then physically threaten me. Cool? Sweet." I guess you could say that Michael never apologized for saying Eric is a midget and has a small penis, but let's be honest - he is the shortest man in the house, and all of those steroids more than likely gave him a small penis. Truth hurts.

Other than Kaysar, Janelle was the happiest person in the house after the HOH competition. Janelle has not made a huge effort to make friends, and until she can form some sort of alliance, she would have looked forward to being on the block for a long time. Since people have picked up on how skilled she is in the game, there was no doubt she wouldn't have lasted long. With Kaysar in the position of power, she could at least try and get one of her rivals (she mentioned Ivette and Jenny) to go before she did.

Since people know Janelle is probably Kaysar's closest friend in the house, it's fun to watch people suck up to her a little bit as well. Take April, for instance. As she and Janelle are having a smoke outside, Janelle mentions that she feels like she has no friends, to which April responds "I always liked you!" April then goes on saying that she might not have liked the way Janelle was in the house, but would surely be friends if she saw her outside. When Janelle said she thinks she is the same outside the house, April's "I like you, but I don't like you" story is destroyed. Janelle loved it too, saying she relished the look on April's face because "she was busted." Well, I wouldn't consider April busted, but she is very old. Every time I look at her Michael Jackson nose, I think it is going to fall in.

There were a lot of people who weren't happy with Kaysar winning HOH, including Ivette, who was upset because she said Allah must have been looking over Kaysar and must have given him HOH. Well, no shit Ivette! Do you think Kaysar prays so many times a day because he is asking to get screwed over? What's her next complaint? "Oh, that bitch April, she's always like 'Give us this day our daily bread.' What's up with that? I HATE PB&J!!"

I have been kind of going back and forth on what to think about Kaysar. I really hate his apparent pacifism, because they are always the most boring in the house. Maybe he was just laying low. When talking about his win, Kaysar said he wanted to make people kiss his ass a little bit, and that is a VERY healthy attitude in the house, at least when it comes to our entertainment.

Speculation is rampant on what is going to happen. Ivette and Maggie talk about who is going to be nominated. Maggie believes that Kaysar will keep his promise to Eric, who said he would keep Kaysar safe for one week if Kaysar promised not to nominate him if he won HOH. The thought of this infuriated Ivette, because she couldn't stand the thought that Janelle was going to be safe, saying that it was always the dumb who go far. "Hello pot? This is kettle. By the way, you're black." Oh yes Ivette, we forgot that you have a job as a waitress because you needed more time to work on your graduate thesis for your MBA, or Masters in Bitchy Antics to the rest of us. But Ivette does have reason to worry. As Janelle says, nominating Ivette "is a more personal decision, because we hate her." NICE!
