There are those small victories in life that we as human beings hold on to and revel in for years after the fact; the time my hateful boss was led out in handcuffs because of the child porn that I might have reported finding on his office computer; the run in with my ex-husband when I was on the arm of a particularly handsome gentleman. Apparently, beating Vinci at last weeks duel was one of those special victories for little Enrique. Its heartwarming to start this week with him in the chapel gleefully chuckling over his triumph, accompanied by a victory punch to the sky, a little pit action and the Howard Dean type shout, "Yes!! I took out the Bully."

Currently starring in Rocky 7

The editors, apparently working to develop a heart warming theme for the week, follow up Enrique's triumph by showing us a tender moment between Geovannie and Silvia. Well, at least, Geovannie thinks it's a tender moment; Silvia not so much. Geovannie tells us that he's over Silvia dumping him for Berto last week because he and Silvia share a special bond that nothing can come between and he's willing to face the whole group to defend her, if it comes down to that. Denial is a beautiful thing. Meanwhile, Silvia is telling the camera that any alliance with Geovannie is weak, since nobody in the house can stand him. And there is something about Geovannie that is guaranteed to make most women's skin start to crawl.

If I keep smiling, he might go away.

Later, the chicos are hanging out in the pool with Roseny telling us that she, Jenn and Gisel are the 'in group' and everyone else is out. For God's sake, these women are out of high school, correct? Was an arrested emotional development a necessary criteria for coming on this show? I have to say that at this point the only contestant that I can really get behind is Berto. So, WooHoo! Go Berto! Jenn Pinto almost has me, except for her tendency to go into rants more appropriate for a spot in the Bad Girls Club. Anyway, by the chicos count they've been in the house for two weeks and they're almost halfway through.

The next morning at 6:35 am, the front door opens and...no, it's not the cleaning crew...it's Charo!!! Remember, Charo from the 70's? The person with the single most appearances on the Love Boat, ever!!! Not to mention that she's a really fine guitarist, it's just that her guitar playing can get overlooked with all the coochee, coochee stuff going on. Now, some careful detective work has yielded the information that Charo was either born in 1941 or 1951, depending on the documents you look at, which means that she's either 67 or 57 years old. Charo is going with 1951 and, since I can't wrap my mind around a 67 year old woman in bright red spandex hot pants looking that good, I'll go with the 57 years as well. Either way, she looks impressive as hell as she creeps into the house, wearing the aforementioned bright red spandex shorts and sprayed with tubs of some sort of polyvinyl shellac, because no 57 year old woman is looking that tight on her own. Einstein would have loved this woman, she single handedly challenges the concepts of both gravity and time.

In my neighborhood all we get is crack addicts and pimps.

As Charo tiptoes through the house, followed by an entourage of young male musicians, the chicos are sleeping the sleep of the innocent and it occurs to me that millions of boys have regularly fallen asleep praying that they would awaken to find Charo in their beds. I would like to put out there a reminder to be careful what you pray for; thirty years later that prayer might come back to bite you in the ass. I mean Charo's still looking pretty hot, but for those boys who were praying for Farrah Fawcett, they could get a hell of shock if their prayers are similarly answered.
