Burning Questions About Big Brother

I'm not proud to admit it, but I'm more invested in Big Brother than ever -- this show just has a way of sucking me in, and with a house full of loonier-than-usual contestants this season, I can't look away!

A few words on last night's show -- I'm VERY glad Eric stayed and Kail was finally shown the door; I'm VERY glad Jessica won HOH (she may be my favorite houseguest -- at least for the moment); and I'm VERY glad Dick appears as though he is headed toward the exit.

Having said that, I've got a few burning questions -- if anyone can provide answers, I'm happy to hear 'em!

-Why didn't CBS feel the need to read the statement about Amber's anti-semitic comments they released (which can be read here) on the live show last night?

-Why hasn't CBS shown us the duplicitous side of Eric before? That was pretty nasty, threatening to use Amber's secrets against her. Are they trying to force us to love and root for America's Player?

-What happened in between Amber's huge blowout, and the vote that allowed Eric to stay in the house? This one I can kind of answer -- Dustin, Amber, Jameka and Jess realized they needed to get Dick and Daniele out of the house, and with Jameka unable to compete in the next 4 HOH's, they need Eric for the numbers game. But still -- there had to have been some conversations following Amber's huge emotional explosion -- was that not worthy of being seen on tv?

-How did Jessica become my favorite player? I hated her and her squeaky voice the first week of the show!

-Is Daniele really feeling closer to Dick, or is she simply using him for the game? And what will become of Daniele if Dick gets the boot this week?

That's about it for now -- all answers (or thoughts) welcome!
