Steve Martin once wrote a hilarious essay about a shortage of periods. I found it copied on this Web site; it's short but absolutely hysterical!

Angelsluv..actually if you remove some colons(give them away) you more likely will end up with diarrhea..diarrhea..LOL..Steve Martin said that too in "Parenthood" I believe..diarrhea..diarrhea. (a nurse who knows)

To stay on topic though..thought it was totally fair for Elana to be there..Robert is the only HG with a small child..and he was right when he said Elana could not fully understand the concept of time and how long three months were.
Even though I don't care for Robert, I cried despite myself and was happy to see the reunion.

OMG Boberg, Now that is tooooooo funny!! *LMAO* You can always trust Steve Martin to say lines like that!

After finding out that the sequestered were going back so soon, and Robert wasn't going to Mexico, it makes more sense that he was allowed to see his daughter.

Hi, Boberg, thanks for that link! Looks as though we've been in good company with our little off-topic game, LOL!

I forgot to say I thought it was not only fair,but I would have been very disappointed if 'they' didn't have Elena there.

It may have been good tv,but it also would have been very bad tv if 'they' hadn't. JM

I thought it was nice that Elena was there. That was a long time for a little girl to be without her dad. He had discussed it with before deciding to go on BB but to a little girl, like Robert said, she couldn't really understand fully. To see both of their faces was wonderful.

The only reason the people on the jury prior to Robert didn't have family there to greet them is because they were going to Mexico to be sequestered. Robert wasn't going to Mexico so he was met by family...All the other hgs that were evicted before the jury had family meet them, so what is the big deal?

I think it was great that Elena was brought in to see her daddy and I hope Arnold does something special for her since she was the target of some very nasty remarks made by some hgs.

Loved that piece about periods, Bastable!

I think the "do it for the children" attitude is getting so prevalent that BB should not allow any HGs with small children in for the next season. I don't want to watch those people just be given the America's Choice prizes because they have small children.

I think BB won't have to make a rule like that. On Big Brother, the same trick never works twice. Next year's contestants will remember Robert and they'll never let another person get away with it.
