Ditto to all points above.

You're definitely right about this. I couldn't believe he went around to each Galu member and told them he had the idol. To do that, and to also tell each one that he hadn't told anyone else, was pretty short-sighted.

I'm still kinda puzzled by Russell. I don't like him much, but there are times when he seems to be playing Survivor as well as I've ever seen it played. Then again, there are times when he makes extremely obvious (from the viewers' POV) mistakes. I like it when there are players like this - those who I don't want to see win, but who I also don't want to see get voted out. Strange, I know.

I was happy to see Eric go home. Based on the votes, I suspect Shambo will be on the chopping block next week (despite the previews that suggest Russell is in trouble).
