While browsing through one of my favorite links The Daily Meme I found a great blog called Catchwords: What Will You Write Today? Today’s quote caught my eye:
It is a profitable thing, if one is wise, to seem foolish. ~ Aeschylus
For those that are new to my website you may not be aware that I am addicted to Big Brother. I am having withdrawals as I write this. Praying that the powers that be over at CBS will once again have a mid-season show in February. But I digress.
When I read this quote over at Catchwords, nothing insightful or profound came to mind. What did pop into my mind immediately was that this must have been Dan’s secret ‘catchphrase’ during this season’s Big Brother. For those that are not Big Brother junkies, Dan won the half million dollars last night in the Big Brother season finale.
Many of his ‘moves’ in the game appeared foolish to his ‘housemates’ but ‘behind the scenes’ he was being very, very, wise in his game play. After all, he is a half million dollars richer this morning because of it.
So there you go, I may appear very foolish to some (and many times to myself) but perhaps ‘behind the scenes’ there are some wise moments.
Gotta run and go check the mailbox for that million dollars.
I hope you check out today’s Flickr photo. I snapped it this morning on my way to my ‘other’ job. A companion photo can be found at my Daily Photo site.

I think he played the best game ever!
I’ve never watched the show but the quote is very profound and something to think about. Sometimes the wise move is to let someone else get the credit and think it was all their idea.
I didn’t even know that there was a Big Brother on.
I am so addicted to big brother too! I am already going through withdrawal! I will have to keep that saying in mind…it might come in handy sometime!
