Oh my! You do NOT have YOUR hands full, do you? No, of course you don't!

I did not stop off to view your blog and enjoy all your Not Me's. Especially the fact that you photograph your kids during an interrogation. The looks on their faces are not hilarious!!!

Happy Monday!

Thank you so much for reading! I appreciate all of your comments. I am sorry for the mistakes. I literally got out of bed to write that, and apparently decided not to edit.

I never meant they said the name is Tom, my lack of explanation being part of the mistakes I mentioned. The name Tom came from the fact that they intentionally didn't tell us the name. While listing the names of male characters, I first came to Kate's friend (something to do with the toy plane and the mobile in the medical station)-- and then I thought, no-- Aaron's dad!

I appreciate all of your comments! The positive ones have really made my night!

Great post! I agree with your assessment that this could very well be a long con. However, I have taken Daniel's explanation of things as true, because I see him as innocently handholding the viewers through an otherwise complicated time-travel storyline.

If you are right, then I also think that the absolute best Desmond- centric episode is yet to come. Can you imagine how awesome/ endless the possibilities are for such an episode? You have me looking forward to a story that is all in my head. Nice.

Thank you all for your comments. I find it so difficult to write anything about the time travel aspect. I didn't know TPTB had already said that the Island the 815ers crashed on was in 2004. That's helpful to know.

I also want to explain that I don't think anyone is reliving anything (outside of maybe Desmond at some point) and I understand the present for the left behinders and the present for the Others, etc are in different times. In short, I was just trying to say that Jack, Kate, Sayid and Hurley on Flight 316 are to Island 1977, as the Losties on Flight 815 are to Island "future date". But, apparentlly that is already a wasted thought.

As for the Charlie Hume part, I initially dismissed those theories too.I admit I should have written the second part elsewhere. I think the driving force behind most of the CH is CP theories is the fact that Penny and Desmond hate Charles Widmore. Even though Charlie Pace saved Desmond's life, the fact that anyone would assume that Charlie Hume was named after his grandfather makes the child's name more significant. Personally I know I wouldn't name my child after the man who saved my life if, by doing so, I was also naming him after a man who a)my spouse and I hate because he ruined our lives and b) who has told me I'm worth nothing to him. It seems like an honor for the wrong person, so I think the writers thought about it.

Hi everyone -

A reader on my site (longlivelocke.com -- my posts are here on DarkUFO, too) just sent me this note, which I felt might be appropriate for this poll:

"I too was stumped over the Comic Con video and a recent Lostpedia interview asked Darlton the same question. I didn't really like their response, since the video has been incorporated into fans minds since Comic Con:

"I think some people believe that they hear Faraday's voice in the Comic-Con experience. These events are sort of partially canon but more promotional than they are canon. Giving the audience a sneak peak as to what the season is about.""

I guess that answers that!

"It was already stated that given the label on the cans that the gas was "Cytidine Triphosphate"

Did you skip biology lessons at school? CTP and ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) are molecules that cells use for intracellular energy transfer. They are not poisons or nerve gas agents, they are the basic energy source and mechanism of all living cells...

I don't think the label in the gas canister refers to any specific chemical, it's just a random name the writers made up.

I, too, was confused about this... but then I remembered reading that the April 2007 date on the paper in TTLG to be an error. So I believe that SNBH did take place in August 07 (and they wanted to make it obvious, even for those without Tivo and the ability to blow up screencaps) and TTLG is still after that (clearly, it has to be). You would think they would be more careful with the props! On the "enhanced" version of TTLG, the little pop-up thingies actually stated the gist of the article, but made no mention of the date on the paper.

Remember that Nikki and Paulo were shown reading a paper that was the day after the plane crash, and that was a mistake.

I don't think ppl should rule out Jack based on the reasons sited. Just b/c Juliet shoots someone in eppy 8 then in 9 Jack has a fb eppy means nothing. Remember Boone. The writers havwe also stated that they plan to bring Libby and Eko back for fb's.

I don't care what anyone says. After seeing how much is done in front of a green screen - the LOST actors are even more outstanding in my book! Who knew that the hole in the ground or the mountain in the background were all CG! I'm impressed with the nerds and the actors, even if the submarine was sub-par.

Mon, 04 Feb 2008 14:09:00 -0000

Matt and Bajappenin - Wow, I'm totally disappointed in myself that I didn't think of the whole "code phrase" possibility! I guess we shall soon find out...

Jamielost - I have been avoiding reading about the show, so I never saw that Darlton said they were going to re-do the clipping. On the "enhanced version" of the S3 finale that they aired last week, one of the pop-up captions actually referenced the clipping and stated that 'many people think it refers to a man who was from NY but died in LA,' so it seems like they're going with the clipping as it was...

Regarding Minkowski identifying himself... I was actually referring to the time in the S4 premiere when Kate answers the phone...that person did not identify himself and sounded meaner. All other times the person identified himself as George.

"-" - Good point about Locke possibly unloading the gun on his own.

Crikey - Totally agree... they wanted to show that Jack is hell-bent on leaving. On top of thinking he was going to kill Locke, he also thought he let Bernard, Jin and Sayid be murdered at the hands of Mr. Friendly, too. He's lost it!

Justsono2w - It's always about the hoodie. Always!

Tom21 - Thanks for the nice note!

Desertgem - No idea about Michael... I'm avoiding reading anything about his return so I'm surprised... but that would be VERY interesting if he ends up being one of the 6!

Veronique - I run a site called LongLiveLocke.com, so I'm very over-the-top with my love of Locke no matter what. ; ) All of my bashing of The Mad Doctor is tongue-in-cheek, even though perhaps it didn't come across that way. I've been writing my recaps for years (you should look back at my old posts to see the extremely high level of Kate-bashing back then!) but this is the first time they've been on DarkUFO... so I'm not really sure of the etiquette here, either... I just write what I think! I think all the debate is in good fun and I love to read everyone's thoughts.

Mujer_esponja - You are very correct... the rest of the crew deserves to get slapped upside their heads for just standing there while my beloved was getting a beat-down!

Mon, 04 Feb 2008 15:28:00 -0000

Branden - Yep, the "only one bullet" theory is a possibility as well.

Nickelback100 - I guess even though Locke may have deserved the beat-down and Jack made his intentions known... the bottom line is that, until that point, Jack had never actually directly taken a life (am I wrong? I may be forgetting something, but I don't think I am...). He was more of a life-saver, if you will. So to me, the fact that he pulled the trigger was a huge turning point, as Crikey pointed out above. He is going to get off the freaking Island no matter what!

Holly6969wood - Harold was listed in the credits on the premiere, too, yet didn't appear. I assumed he's just being considered a full cast member for this season.

Veronique - Yes, if this isn't supposed to be fun, then please kill me now.

Dan - It always seems to come back to board games. I'm just waiting for Candyland to appear.

Mujer_esponja - If lovin' Locke is wrong, I don't want to be right! No matter how crazy he becomes!

Biggiesmalls - First off, I love it when they call you Big Pop-pa. Second... hmmm, never thought about the possibility of time-shifting with the whole gun issue...

Jossni - In the Find815.com game, the name of the latest parachuter dude was a hint in the game. His initials are DF, and the last name was in the game... I found this just by reading Dark's site, though, I didn't actually play the game, so I could've misinterpreted what I read.

Penguinjosh - I just got back from Antarctica last month and saw tons of penguins, which I thought you might appreciate, given your screenname. : ) And yes, my recaps are ridiculously long. You ain't seen nothin' yet. Check out my recap for "Flashes before Your Eyes" last season on longlivelocke.com -- you will need a new glasses prescription when you are done.

Rap - Thanks for your nice words. The Mad Doctor is a nickname I made up for Jack a long, long time ago, and it actually was meant to be a compliment at the point in time that I started using it. I believe it was near the end of the first 6 eps of Season 3 when he just started playing by his own rules during Benry's surgery. I LOVED him like that. He was pissed off and he wasn't gonna take anyone's sh!t anymore! That is when he's at his best, IMHO. So please know that my nickname was chosen out of love, but may not appear that way now if you are reading my posts for the first time. Just like when people call me a nerd, that is a badge of pride in my mind. : )

I can tell that there's a bit of sensitivity on Dark's site about the whole Locke vs. Jack thing. While I clearly love Locke or I wouldn't have named my site in his honor, I do love Jack, too. Once you see a few more of my posts, you will see that all of my rants are meant to be funny, and I TRY to kind of go overboard. I sit here at my Mac, alone with my dog, laughing to myself. If anything, take pity on me for being such a dork.

That being said, no one will ever make me love Kate or Juliet!

Notorious thc - Yes, my write-ups are long. You should hear how much I talk! We are having issues with the pictures I uploaded to the site, which makes it seem even longer without the pics to break it up. I cater to those who like to waste time at work reading long recaps.

Frank803 - And how 'bout that second storm last night? I got stuck in it coming home from a Super Bowl party. My dog loves it, though.

Gottawatchlost - Yes, I have that same thought in my recap... just one line so you may have missed it--but I totally agree that C and A getting on a helicopter doesn't mean they are two of The Six.

Jake3988 - Hmmm, I still don't like Juliet, but I do like Ben and Richard. And I DID like Mr. Friendly (Zeke), rest his soul.

Jaymedee - Even though I love Locke with the power of a thousand burning suns, I do realize that he is being not-so-cool as of late. I agree with you that the Island IS on his side, and I would like to think that of all of the theories about the gun that have been mentioned, that it ends up being the Island that didn't want him to get shot.

Henry Holland - Sorry, I gotta keep my nicknames, I've been using them for two seasons now! Besides Benry, I also use The Mad Doctor, Darth Hoodie, Six Foot Five College Freshman Waaaaaalllt, and a few others from time to time. I just feel that it mixes things up a bit, kind of like using a thesaurus--I get sick of using their real names over and over. I agree with both your points about Jack and Locke, though. Jack is all hyper about leaving and is making mistakes. Locke probably does figure he can use Ben (kept it "Ben" just for you!) to his advantage. Plus, Rousseau comes with Ben, and I would definitely want that crazy chick on my side!

Noah Miller - Your idea did make sense and I think it is definitely possible. Maybe this thing hasn't gotten to Jack yet in Hurley's flash-forward. Maybe it picks on Hurley first because it knows he is the most easy to get, because of his past mental health issues.

Joana - Benry's still my #1 choice for Coffin Guy, but Michael is my #2. Because Michael might have known how to get back to the Island. But why wouldn't Walt be at the funeral?

Save_the_hobbit - I love your screenname. The hobbit still lives! I am a huge LOTR fan... even went to NZ to tour the movie sites (pics on my other blog).
There are awesome "Charlie Lives!" shirts at Cafe Press, too, btw.

mne - Thanks for your comment. All the things you point out about the way other Lostaways are treating Locke make me all the more nervous that something bad is going to happen to him (or that he is going to do something REALLY stupid). With Ana Lucia... I just can't separate her from the woman who plays her, and I have major issues with MR.

Joana - Well, we saw Waaaaalt leave with Michael, but I guess he could've come back and Michael could've died... but a lot of things would need to be filled in to make that theory more plausible to me. I hope that's the purpose Season 4 will serve - filling in the "missing pieces" (pun intended).

Okla21fan - ANYTHING is possible on Lost. Even though I think Cindy was from Australia and Naomi is from the UK...

Michael - Of all people we have seen before, I agree that the eye looks the most like Patchy's, but not enough to totally convince me.

Ghos-t - I think the nose bump doesn't look like Locke's at all. I think it looks more like Patchy's or Desmond's than Locke's nose bridge.

Frank803 - But I LOVE crazy talk! And I agree with you on the coffin person being connected to J and K but not on the flight. So Benry is still in the running. As are all the characters we haven't met yet.

Tusaz - I am happy to be here! But I am sorry (for you, your friends and your family) that you share my sense of humor.

Sharon - Yes, I mention that I think more than 6 got off the Island in the "Six-Pack" section of the write-up near the group picture. Agree that Kate may be lying low and not be one of the 6. Congrats on adding a NEW guess to the mix - Ben's dad for Eye Guy!

iam"jack's"eye - One thing I have always loved about the show is that it isn't afraid to make use of religious imagery (this coming from a not overly religious person). Because that imagery taps into so many emotions and possibilities. Let's hope for the Losties' sake that the rescuers aren't signaling Armageddon. I don't want to hear that damn Aerosmith song again.

Brandon - All of my totally behind-the-times friends who never watched Lost before have my DVDs... do you have a link for the radio thing you mentioned?

Moses123 - Sorry, the nicknames will always remain... I've been using them for years. But I promise to tone them down a bit (or make up new ones! Hee hee) in the future. Besides, save_the_hobbit likes them, so there! Regarding your guess about when the flashes take place, I would agree that they're probably less than a year after they leave the island, but that would make them before the end of 2005. If the flashes were in mid-2006 as you stated, that would be 1.5 years from where they are now and still 7 months from the Jack/Kate drama in April 2007. It is the end of Dec 2004 on the Island right now. If you know something I don't about time, don't spoil anything and let me remain clueless!

Samier - We'll see if Naomi is related to Cindy, but like I said above, they're from different countries. But I guess they could've been born in the same place and perhaps went their separate ways. I LOVE the Willy Wonka-ish "Golden Pass" idea. Because what the Island needs is a chocolate river--then it would be perfect! But seriously, I get what you are saying, and I think that would be a really cool idea. But they do keep referring to Jack as a "hero," which doesn't really fit with them being "winners" of some sort of game. We shall see...

Re: http://darkufo.blogspot.com/2008/02/beginning-of-end-of-my-sanity.html

Wed, 06 Feb 2008 20:22:00 -0000

faith_can't live in NYC - I must admit that I think I'm totally on the "it was a code phrase" boat now, regarding Naomi's mention of her sister. Though that wouldn't be as cool as if she really had a sister we eventually get to meet. Agreed that Locke is the craziest mofo. That's why I like him, for I, too, am crazy.

Jason07 - Perhaps what I will do is write my write-up the way I normally do for my own site, and then do a find/replace for some of the nicknames when I transfer it over to Dark's site. "Benry" is used on a lot of the other message boards and was a fave of my readers for the past few years, but I agree that that one in particular may be growing a bit old. Perhaps I just need to think of a better one!

Dlang12 - You are right! When you think about it, Jack is perhaps just as much of a crazy mofo as Locke is, with all his threats to kill Zeke (Mr. Friendly), Ben and Locke. So perhaps this episode was the Beginning of the End of HIS sanity! Agree that everyone's forgetting about Richard and the Others at the Temple. Will they be any safer from these "rescuers" than Locke and his gang will be at the barracks? Good point about Des staying with Jack, I guess I didn't even notice where Des ended up in the whole thing. I have a feeling that after Charlie banged him on the head with the oar, he's stopped having flashes. And he has a history with Jack (from the stadium back in the real world), whereas he thinks Locke is crazy after Locke destroyed the Countdown Computer in the hatch... so maybe that's why.

Kimberlee - That is definitely the best theory I've heard so far about the 6 that actually shows a link among the three we KNOW got off (J, K and H). They were all on "the list." But since that was the Others' list and these people who are coming seem to be unconnected, that's the part that doesn't make sense still. But we've only had one episode, so time will tell...

Katieb20022001 - I try to obsess over all characters equally! I fully admit that my fave characters are Locke, Desmond and Sayid, and I've never been a fan of Kate, but overall I just try to tell it like it is without letting my personal opinion get in the way. I also have like ten bazillion people who call and email me after each ep, giving me their opinions, so I try to represent a wide range of what I hear from various sources, too. Mostly I just try to have fun with it.

I will forewarn you, however, that this was actually a SHORT recap compared to most of the ones I've written in the past...

ChristyG - Why are you reading this comment? GO DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!! Glad you liked the recap.

Dlang12 - I think we are talking about two different lists... I was assuming Kimberlee was talking about the list that Ms. Klugh gave Michael pf people he had to bring back with him in order to be reunited with Walt. That list had J, S, K and Hurley on it. Not "Jacob's list," which is different, and is of the "good people." That's the list Goodwin told Ana Lucia about, and is the same list we learned Jack wasn't on during the surgery.

Sun, 10 Feb 2008 16:23:00 -0000

Surly - I agree that Locke will most likely not be hurt or killed any time soon, as we just had a death fake-out with him at the end of last season. However, what I'm worried about now is that he will CAUSE something bad to happen, or someone else we like to be killed. I'm convinced he won't do anything "bad" on purpose, but that his good intentions may still lead to something awful.

Good GOD, I am SO glad I don't go on the boards if people are talking about "heat" between Charlotte and my man! That is disgusting. Now, if he hooked up with Rousseau, that would be more believable. : )

Edflam311 - That's like saying there are too many celebrity gossip magazines! I don't read the other recaps until I've posted mine, just to ensure I'm not influenced by others' opinions. I'm not surprised that we cover similar things (it is only an hour-long show, after all), but I think we have drastically different styles, and so hopefully Dark's readers find a few that particularly resonate for them.

Skylen Dragon - I didn't notice any brand name on the machine... but the link to C.S. Lewis you found with your Dyson research is awesome. All I know about Dyson is that their commercials are totally obnoxious.

Noah Miller - I haven't been looking at any of the cast stuff for fear of spoilers, so not sure who Zoe is. I also noticed the two Essexes, but I couldn't figure out how it might come into play, so I didn't say anything. Any ideas? It IS weird that they chose the same city name of all the cities in the world... Agreed that the gas masks may have been because they knew what Ben had done. Maybe because someone's parents escaped The Purge? Finally, that would be interesting indeed if the freighter was taken over...

Jaymedee - I must've been laughing too hard at that videocast and missed the tie info... now it's even funnier! And yes, the wink was Classic Jack at his best. And Kate's reaction was pretty much Classic Kate.

Sunspot - Thanks for your nice words, it makes me feel that my aching wrists were worth it.

David - That theory ROCKS. I totally agree with you. Now I need to go Netflix Muppet Babies, dammit.

Lobster Johnson - A ha, that is a very good reason why Naomi would reference the flight. Man, I have been missing a lot with Naomi... still can't believe I didn't realize she was using a code phrase before.

Fawaz - (If you consider comments the producers have made in interviews to be spoilers, then read no further....) The producers have said that there are no "multiple time threads" (destroying one of my favorite theories), and that the Lostaways are not in purgatory, so there cannot be two planes. We know the real cockpit is on the Island, we saw the pilot die on the Island, and I just figured that all that, combined with Frank confirming that it couldn't be the pilot, meant that it was a staged crash. We know that SOME organization wants to keep the Island secret, so they don't want people looking for the plane. This same organization seems to have endless resources and money, so they could indeed fake the entire plane and bodies in the ocean. Since all of us recappers seem to believe this so strongly, I am now certain that we are all wrong and that the producers have lied to us!

mne - Ah, I forgot about that line from Naomi - kind of freaky!

Moses123 - My recaps are re-posted on Dark's site from my own site, which I've been writing since Season One... so I think you're misinterpreting the tone I've gotten used to using overall--I'm just joking most of the time when I directly speak to readers. And on my site, I have been yelling about the time loop theory forever, so it was more of a tongue-in-cheek comment I was making, because I fully realize that I sound like a broken record to people who have been reading my posts since 2004. If anyone watching Lost ever seriously tries to claim that they came up with a theory, then they are ridiculous. Regarding the nicknames, I actually painstakingly went through my entire write-up both this week and last week and switched out several of the nicknames I used on the version on my site, as I know it bugs a lot of people on Dark's site. But each write-up takes me about 12-14 hours to pull together in the first place, then another half-hour to upload pics to both sites, so I can't change everything to make everyone happy. And I don't even make any money doing this stuff, so I need to draw the line somewhere with how much time I spend on it. Sorry!

Kia - I do like that idea, but like Oodles pointed out, then they couldn't have been survivors of the crash. And fear not, it probably ISN'T a time loop that they're in... while some things fit with that theory, a heck of a lot DON'T, and I also think it would be really hard to expose that there's a time loop and then allow the characters to figure it out AND break the loop all within less than 45 or so more new episodes. I still think something bizarre is going on with time, though.

Brian - I do like your theory... obviously you don't mean that they are literally, physically becoming other characters (I hope), but rather they are starting to mirror people they used to fear/despise more and more as time goes on. Like how a lot of people turn into their parents.

Moses123 - Yay!

Ina - I think I read the transcript a little too quickly... at first she seemed like she was going to kill him, but then she agreed to bring Sayid to the Economist. So, yeah, it is kind of lame that Sayid killed her when he was going to get the chance to meet The Man! Guess he didn't speak German. Here is what the subtitles said: "Why should I keep him alive? No, he had no idea. All right, all right. I’ll bring him to you."

njroen - I don't even know what to say in response to your comment, except that I WAS KIDDING. I am not a very serious person, and my offhanded comments are not meant to be taken literally. If it upsets you, you probably shouldn't read my posts, because that's how I've always written and that's how I always will write. Everyone else seems to have gotten the joke. Why would I try to purposefully alienate readers? It's called sarcasm, and I'm sorry that you took it the wrong way. It should be very obvious that anyone who watches LOST in the first place is smarter than the average bear.

jake3988 - I think the hate is coming mostly from females. Maybe we're secretly jealous of Charlotte? I know I am because she's now hanging with Daniel!

[andre] - Thanks!

addy_ellis - So apparently I cannot even jokingly insult people anymore (see above), so I don't dare agree with your assessment that you're an idiot. : ) But Ben was born on the ground of a forest a little outside of Portland. Remember, his dad runs out to the highway and flags down the other peeps who end up recruiting him into Dharma? Then he takes Ben to the Island and gets all mad because he's been assigned to be a "work man"? Ben looked to be like 8 or 10 (I'm bad with ages) or so at that point. So he definitely was not born on the Island. I think this was all in "The Man Behind the Curtain" near the end of S3. Hope that helps. And for God's sake, keep watching!

addy_ellis - Locke knows that Ben killed all of the Dharma group (but maybe not HOW he did it), and Jack knows that Ben "took the lives of 40 people in a single day," but I think that's the extent of it.

lost_love - Thanks!

Matthew and Beth - That would definitely be the most logical explanation, no wonder why I didn't think of it!

dulcinea - Thanks!

dlang12 - Juliet IS sketchy, I agree that she won't fade into the background just yet.

theloneassassin - I do fear that Daniel will pull the switcheroo on us and become freakishly evil... someone compared him to Ed Norton in Primal Fear (if you haven't seen it, YOU MUST). I hope he stays nerdy!

Nikita - That very well could be... IF Kate is able to leave again...

mdpeterson42 - You have totally called me out, and you are right. Why am I losing faith in Locke at this most critical of times!?! I am not worthy of running longlivelocke.com anymore, I have failed him in his time of need! There will be no more doubting of Locke from now on (by me).

Chele - Thanks!

Sublime Lazy - I think most people are just assuming that since they played that dramatic music, and since we know Sayid is one of The Six, and since we suspect all might not be rosy on the freighter, that neither Sayid nor Desmond come back to the Island when Frank returns with the helicopter. Perhaps at least Sayid comes back in the future, but I honestly don't think he's coming back any time soon, even though that may have been his initial intention (to learn more about the group and report back). Des, however, I think just wants to get back to Penny and has no reason to want to return, ever. I agree with what theloneassassin said a few posts above this (which I should've read before typing so much!).

Nick - See my comment to addy_ellis at the top of this post. I don't think anyone knows about Ben's method.

cool2bcanadian00 - Sorry, not reading your post, it looks like spoilers to me and I don't want to know anything at all about the future episodes.

surfcityconfidenceman - Surf City, here we come! Thanks for your nice words.

ben bang - You may not want to read any write-up where I actually LIKE the episode... they're even longer. Check out "Flashes Before Your Eyes" (click under "Desmond) on longlivelocke.com, and you will see what I mean. But I hope that you will stick with me -- who doesn't want to waste time, right? : )

mdpeterson42 - I hope you believe me when I say that your words still haunted me last night... you CAN hold me to it, I have seen the light!

adam6890 - I do have faith that the show will return to some of the mysteries that made us love it in the first place, but I also think it may not be until Season Five... they won't leave us hanging about Smokey and all that, but we're probably going to have to be patient (watch, the next episode will have Smokey in it).

ross - That is indeed the brilliance of the show - it provides escapism for viewers like me, who are all about the sci-fi aspects, but enough drama/intrigue/great characters/storylines to appease people who do not actually believe in, say, elves and unicorns. I personally went to not one, but two X-Files conventions back in the day, so Lost has fulfilled my need for a supernatural-filled hour in my week. Now you are REALLY understanding how crazy I am, aren't you?

chris13 - I was just trying to make a funny title for the post... "The Economist" didn't give me much to work with! I use the term "snob" for this post's title in the same sense as when I say that I'm a chocolate snob. Wouldn't you agree that "The Economist" is a little more intellectual than, say, "BusinessWeek"? I get both, by the way, so I'm not hating on the magazine, trust. But on to the more important matter--I am very jealous of you that you're a student... live it up and make the most of every moment, because college is the best time in your life! Let me come visit? Maybe?

bfraley - Someone brought this up on my site, too... I guess the BoSox also won in 07 (can you tell I am not a sports fan). However, it was also mentioned that if Frank was a Yankees fan, he would've been more upset by the '04 series than by the '07 series. Hope that makes any sort of sense to you.

mdpeterson42 - I very much agree with you that Danielle has always known more than she has let on about the Others, and that she is most likely lying about her own background. Who else wants a Rousseau flashback?!?! Anyway, I still think Alex is her daughter (and not with Ben), but that doesn't mean she wasn't somehow involved with Dharma back in the day. Another theory people have is that Karl is actually Ben's son and that Annie died giving birth to him. All I know is that I am sure we will see Annie again in the future. There are so many people on this show I am totally forgetting about all these other back-stories we need to fill in the details for! DAH!

Sara - Hmmm, never thought about a tracking device on/in the bracelet itself, that would be interesting...

nicolemm05 - I am always looking for constructive criticism for my writing, so I will take to heart what you said and I won't (or will try not to) directly insult my readers, even jokingly. There is enough to joke about with the show as it is, right? I do apologize to anyone else who took offense... I am just too used to writing these things for people who know me, and I forget that you all don't personally know me and my admittedly sarcastic sense of humor. I will stick to what I do best--worrying about Locke.

James E Powell - I think I would die and go to Heaven if there ends up being a Fellowship of the Island. You are right--there IS a volcano. This is gonna be the BEST. Regarding your final comment about the Losties not remembering the flight, the producers did say they will not do anything like that. But on that note...

Sublime Lazy - I kind of have to agree with James that it would be hard to make up for everything that Ben has done. All of Season One was spent getting the viewers to connect with the 815ers, and the Ben wants to execute Jin and we're supposed to forgive him? Not to mention all the other trickery he's pulled. Han Solo never outright hurt or wanted to kill any GOOD guys! But if what you're saying is that Ben will perhaps end up being justified in some of his actions, and that he is at least going to end up being on the "same side" as the Losties overall by the end, then yes, I think that is possible.

Rizzo - Regarding Walt and Michael, I think no one considers them "escaped" yet just because we've never gotten confirmation that they aren't just still floating at sea. PLUS we've seen Walt, or a vision of Taller Walt, on the Island recently. So I think until it is absolutely positively confirmed that they have reached land that is not the Island, we can't be sure. At least that's how I look at it. So I guess right now we're also all just assuming that Des makes it back (we KNOW Sayid does because of the flashes). Hope that helps.

Hatebox - That is a good point about Sawyer. Perhaps dulcinea's guess above sheds some light on why he now feels like hanging around.

Crikey - Thanks!

iam*jack's*eye - Thanks!

Mary - OK, I was thinking the date was shown in one of the blow-ups of a screencaps, but I may be wrong there. Looks like we may not know the TTLG date, then.

Garus - Thanks, I was not aware of that. The Flame was blown up (once again, by Locke!) too, so that may be a reason for the lack of food drops now.

Penguinjosh - Thanks! I hope you have checked out my penguin pics by now on www.erikasolson.com under "Antarctica"...

bfd - Yes, I'm realizing that the date I assumed for the paper may have been a mistake. The paper clipping, however, was definitely meant to be taken seriously, as the contents of what it said were made known on the "enhanced" version of TTLG that they played before the S4 premiere a month ago (which I thought was kind of cheating). But the date is still unknown, it would seem.

TTLG was on May 23, 2007 (not 08, as we haven't gotten there yet!)... but I am curious as to why you think the flash-forwards are in 09 vs 08? Because if we take Kate's mom's cancer statement literally, then shouldn't it be mid-08? I guess mid-08 vs some time in 09 doesn't really matter. The only thing that doesn't fit is Aaron's age. But THAT is so complicated that it may still somehow fit but I can't bear to try and figure it out! I do think you're on to something overall, though.

Lesley - A ha, that is a good guess as to why she didn't want Aaron in the court room or for her mom to see him. She must really trust that nanny then, though... (unless the nanny is approved by whatever group made the deal with the 06).

Drewcipher - Ha! Your comment made me laugh. I guess you are right... I am not that in touch with beard-growth timeframes.

Dead_Paulo - Yeah, I understand the point you're saying, but it still doesn't explain why the lawyer would ever assume that Jack loved Kate in the first place. Not everyone that crash-lands together falls in love. The fact that Jack once had feelings for Kate must have been made known by the 06 for some reason, or else the lawyer would've gotten a different answer from Jack. He didn't fight what she said because he knew the world knew his past feelings. My question is, "WHY does the world know about his feelings for Kate?" Hope that makes sense.

heb0811 - Alas, there was not another JJ Abrams cross-over in this ep. It was Valis, same book cover that I posted, too.

dulcinea - I like your theories on both Aaron's growth and Sawyer's motivations, I think you may be right!

Jacob's chair - Yes, your questions are all of the same ones I listed. It really doesn't make sense, but of course we don't have all of the information right now, either. I have faith that it will eventually fit together. (I hope.)

Hi everyone -

I've had a pretty busy week so I haven't been able to respond individually to the comments like I usually try to do. So just a few things that stuck out to me about the comments above since the last time I posted a comment on the 25th...

1) Aaron's age. I am mentioned in the write-up, in the credits Aaron is listed as "two year old boy" (this was so as to not give away the surprise ending by listing his name, they have done this type of thing before in the credits). I think the controversy is over whether or not it's actually been two years since they left the Island, or if it's much less than that and Aaron is growing wildly or something. But considering...

2) Kate's timeline - WIth the information that Nestor pointed out about what the Marshal said to Kate, it does in fact seem that it is most likely mid-2006 in this latest flash-forward.

But then that would mean that there's no difference in time on and off the Island. I have listened to all of the podcasts and never remember the producers making a comment about "one day being the same on and off the Island." However, if it that were the case, there could still be something else strange going on with time. I like the ideas mentioned about audio/video being the same but something else going with physical objects.

I think it would be awesome if Patchy were the mole, but I think it's highly unlikely as he was on the Island the vast majority of the time that the freighter team was in the water nearby, so I don't think he could come and go and not be noticed.

Regarding the food drops, great point about how they could've been executed time and time again when we now know how hard/dangerous it is to get to/from the Island. I hope they eventually explain this!

Loved the Obi Wan/Luke debate. ; ) The force will be with you, always.

hatebox - I noticed that Charlie said "sodding" a ton, too!

jcsz1987 - Yes, I have a feeling a lot of great episodes still are ahead.

Jan - I definitely think that is possible... I, too, thought that at one time but forgot to write it. It would make calling Penny on 12/24/04 much more complicated, however, if it wasn't that time everywhere else, too. Unless Sayid REALLY fixed that phone!

Camus - Yes, it's hard to keep all the episodes in perspective immediately after one airs. To me, "Walkabout" was the episode that made me think "OK, this show ROCKS." So it holds a special place in my heart.

Will - What you said makes sense to me. I think they HAD to show the journal entry for Daniel because otherwise people would be REALLY confused, and because it may come into play again later with Daniel needing Des's help.

Jaek3988 - What do you mean, I DID like last week's? I didn't like the two before Eggtown, though. I actually thought my Eggtown write-up was better... this one felt like I was doing more play-by-play/recapping than I usually like to do, but I thought it was necessary because everything was so confusing. I did mention Locke also getting radiated--if he is forced to leave, that may get interesting...

drewcipher - I'm just waiting for someone to get some of the other less obvious ones (even though 311 not that mainstream now, either)! ; )

gwpeters - Yes, it was definitely possible that we just didn't see the training and that D did it in those 75 mins... but I was also confused about how you would train a rat that already knew the maze, as you pointed out. But I am not going to get hung up on it or I will explode.

helkatmat - I think I just read somewhere that they admitted to using the same background for the pictures (and the photoshopping), but that it wasn't meant to be a clue. I suck at Photoshop and I could've done a better job, though, seriously.

Chili - Well I'm glad at least they didn't show THAT!

Rap - Thank you! I've had a crappy day today, so your comment made me feel better.

Preston - That is an interesting thought. I am anxious to see how they resolve (or IF they resolve) Daniel's issues. They mentioned on the podcast that they know everyone loves Daniel so that's giving me hope that they won't kill him off.

edflam311 - Is that what the 311 in your username stands for?

desertgem - Thanks! I wish I had a video of myself during the episode, because it would actually be pretty entertaining to watch my reactions. Along with everyone else's in the world...

Thanks for reading, everyone!

Joana - Agreed... as I mentioned to a commenter above, I fully acknowledge that in this write-up in particular, I did a lot more recapping than I usually like to. For whatever reason, though, I don't like to just jump into an analysis without setting the stage... it is easier for me to write that way. I definitely don't plan to do as much reviewing of the scenes in the future. At least you got through it and to the good stuff!

Sawyerrules - You must trust that as someone who has spent 14 hours a week just WRITING about each episode, I for one definitely remember all of them and keep them in mind when proclaiming my favorites. For me, "The Constant" had a little bit more emotion to it than FBYE, which is also in my top 5. I think Exodus was probably my third favorite episode, and Raised By Another was also one of my faves. For me, Season Three was the low point so far (until the last few episodes)... too much violence and darkness. I have high hopes for the rest of S4.

Hi everyone -

My dog's been in and out of the vet so I haven't been able to keep up with comments very well... he's fine now at least, phew. Dogs rock. Anyway, instead of individual responses, I'll have to just address some of the main ideas/questions above by topic:

Food drops - Agree that since they were dropped from a helicopter, perhaps the pilots didn't have to fly through the barrier and risk the "side-effects." The clock experiment proved that things can be launched onto the Island.

Minkowski knowing Desmond - Even if Minkowski heard Desmond's name from others in the room, it still doesn't explain why he would know that a person named Desmond is Penny's boyfriend, since he never answered Penny's calls. Unless he was briefed on Everything Penny by the captain. The freighter captain obviously knows enough about Penny to know he doesn't want to accept her calls...

The pace of time - I think David's comment hit it on the head. I was confused when I originally wrote my post and said that time was moving "slower" (I edited it on my own site, but couldn't on this site). David is right in that with the clock experiment, time lagged on the Island, and with the helicopter leaving, it sped up. Very bizarre. Have no idea how to explain it--or how THEY will explain it!

I do now agree, however, that it's 12/24/04 everywhere. I think the Wikipedia timeline was wrong, and it has also since been pointed out to me that in the pop-ups on the last three "enhanced" airings, they actually say it's Day 94 (not 96) on the Island. So THAT is solved. For now. Still doesn't explain the two weird things above though (clock, helicopter).

Des/Daniel Meeting - I agree with orlost who said that they couldn't have remembered because "it didn't happen yet" in 2004. That is the general consensus now on the boards, too.

Time-travel - I should've said that I feel like the time-travel storyline has been closed out for Desmond, but not necessarily overall in the show. From the podcast it's pretty clear that it's not over (I thought, at least).

Minkowski - I do think he's dead

Widmore - I do think the faucet thing was suspect. He's more involved than we previously thought, I'm sure.

heiots - Uh, oh... am I the one getting the eye roll? I can't tell if it's directed at me or the other reviews (which I haven't read yet). Maybe you're in the camp that thinks there's no excuse for what Juliet did?

sublime lazy - You are so funny. I hope your homework is done by now! Anyway, you are correct, we don't know FOR SURE that Michael is working for Ben. I am sure will will get clarity in this next episode. For now I assume he is just because they HAVE to start wrapping some things up sooner or later, rather than continuing to add mysteries, and this seems like an easy and straight forward one, rather than if the mole was someone else.

Rayke - That totally, totally means something. I think it means that YOU'RE one of the Oceanic Six??! Forget Aaron! It's you! (and that was what that section title was taken from--Radiohead)

gaz2520530 - Hmmm, I like that idea about the others using Desmond against the Lostaways--A LOT. It's like Des was always supposed to press the button, and he had "always" done so, but then Locke shows up and destroys the machine. And now a new course has been set. Interesting. But will the universe "course correct" on the Lostaways? That is the question.

Melody - Now I just need to get home to watch it again! The thing about Sun was bugging me the entire time... the "one month early" idea came to me right before I was done with the post!

hatchling23 - I certainly hope you are right... I think it would be really depressing if they're both dead.

Hey guys - I have to go run around another island... Manhattan... shortly, so just to quickly touch upon a few of the points above:

Sun's pregnancy late vs early - Oops, yeah, I think I screwed that one up. She would actually be delivering late in the real world compared to when she "should" be delivering if she said she was already pregnant by Sept 22.

The timeline - The only timeline I know of is what Crikey posted in... and like Crikey said, not sure how accurate it is (esp since it was off by two days for on-Island events...). I like dlang12's guess for the order and the reasons behind why members of the O6 would/wouldn't want to go back to the Island...

I did catch the Dyson commercial, too--hilarious and brilliant--even though I still think that overall their commercials are very annoying.

I do think Paik's company is in on it. If you read my DOC review that I have linked to in this write-up, there are some CRAZY theories people had a year ago about all that.

Hi everyone -

Yes, after I wrote my post, I read about the theory that Frank took Keamy and Omar to the Island and that they could be the ones behind the shooting (I did say that Frank left the Island, but just that I didn't think he would personally would kill anyone). The only problem I see with that idea is that both other times when the helicopter has come to the Island--both when Naomi came and when Daniel et al came, the Lostaways noticed it--they heard it and saw it.

Now, I DEFINITELY don't put it past the writers to show in a later episode that perhaps the Lostaways on the beach saw/heard the helicopter again, but that the people at the barracks didn't, and that's how Keamy/Omar were able to sneak up on Alex, Karl and Rousseau. I think that would be kind of lame since they are so obviously trying to make us think that Ben is behind it, but since we just saw them also purposefully try to trick the audience in "Ji Yeon" with the twist that Jin's flashes were in the past, then I agree that the helicopter peeps very well may have already landed again and are up to no good.

Then I will OFFICIALLY hate Keamy and Omar. I already didn't like Keamy and his toothy grin, but Omar hadn't rubbed me the wrong way as much just yet.

Also, just to clarify... the vast majority of the "crazy theories" that I write up are NOT my own. What I have always done in my write-ups is to try and pull together all of the various thoughts out there on the boards to give people a wide range of ideas to consider. So don't blame me for the insanity! ; ) You CAN blame me for encouraging the insanity, though, by even mentioning the more out-there theories in my write-ups.
For that, I am guilty as charged.

Mary -

Good point! It will be really interesting to see how they incorporate what all of us who've watched the Orchid video know into the show... I'm prepared for some mass confusion on the boards when that happens! But I do think that it a real possibility about the "two of the same objects in one place."

Maybe, as someone wrote to me on my site, Ben and Widmore are actually working TOGETHER... pointing fingers at each other for "faking" the crash, because they both actually know that it's not fake at all. Because if the rest of the world knew that there were two instances of the same plane, all hell would break loose...

I finally landed an awesome freelance writing gig (do I hear any applause?) so I'm a little swamped for time and will have to respond to some of the comments so far in a very general nature...

Here we go:

WHAT MILES SAID
When I write my recaps, I hate to keep repeating over and over "People on the boards think this... or that..." so sometimes I don't always point out that *I* don't necessarily subscribe to an idea I've thrown out there. From what I have read elsewhere, most people think that BECAUSE IT WAS MILES who made that comment, there could possibly be more to read into it, rather than, say, if Sawyer said it. I'm sure we'll learn a lot more about Miles, so hopefully we will get to see the extent of his "abilities" and we'll know if he can indeed perhaps see into the future a bit.

HOW HARD THE EPISODE ROCKED
Crikey - I did like your comment.
: ) I don't know how to really put this into words, but just because I didn't love the episode because of my freak-out about Alex doesn't mean that I don't agree that it rocked the house. I'm sure that made no sense.

JACK
edflam311 - I'm sure you're right. My notion that Jack may actually die would just a weird feeling I got, so I thought I better throw it out there. Katieb20022001 - Yeah, you're right about it being a pretty different scenario when Ben offered Jack the sub option. Jack really didn't have a choice at that point to go back to the beach and get anyone else. Lostfan23 - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the idea of Zombie Dad showing up for the surgery. That would be awesome. I guess we shall see soon enough.

BEN
blindeyesnowsee - Hmmm, that is a very interesting concept... Ben being the manifestation of the Island. They would have to explain how he turned into that, though, since we know he was 'normal' for a while there growing up. But hey, we're going along with the concept of Jacob, so I think any idea is possible! hatchling23 - The clone idea is also possible... obviously there is SOMETHING going on with duplicates/clones/"bad twins"...

Nathan, regarding your question about what Michael told Sayid... if all Tom said was that some of the Others could come and go... it all still works. Tom never mentioned HOW they come and go, so for all Sayid knows, it was a boat. That is how Michael got off, after all (albeit a different boat). If you meant that you didn't understand why Sayid would be shocked AT ALL to see Ben, knowing that some Others can come and go... then I would say that we have yet to see how everything goes down on the Island. Maybe Sayid thinks that any way on or off of the Island has been destroyed by the time the rest of the O6 leave...

PENNY
lildrummrboy - I like that idea of Penny being the economist. I will have to think about it for a bit to see if it could be possible (mind is too foggy right now), but off the top of my head it seems like that could work.

LIBBY
deneph - Interesting idea, never thought of that. But I think Ben didn't really want to find Penny until much later in the timeline, after Alex was killed... Des had been on the Island for 3 years already before the Losties came, and to our knowledge, Ben doesn't know that Des is Penny's man.

DOC'S SCAR
This is another one where I just reported an idea I'd read... I'm totally confused as to how it could actually work, too!

Thanks for reading, everyone!

deneph - OK, you're quickly getting me more on board with the "Ben had Libby give Des the boat" theory. Now I'll be disappointed if it doesn't pan out!

Jason - Both good points. On the second one, though... how in the heck would Keamy and the other guys know that Sawyer was more important than the redshirts, though?

KJK - Awww, I like that idea. Charlie lives!

Chinafreemama - I haven't read other stuff, so I'm not sure about that final cut point.

Skylar - If you like DMB, you'd probably get a kick out of the post I did a few days ago on my other site, According to e (www.erikasolson.com - don't forget the s in the middle!), I went to a DMB tribute band concert and wrote it up, and included my top 6 fave DMB songs. : )

I do currently also write about non-Lost stuff on my other blog, though, and anyone can get to that...

Hey guys -

Penguinjosh - Thanks!

t.l.a. - I never thought about it that way... very interesting.

tamed cat - Sure, I think that's just human nature that if you don't like someone, you find it hard to believe others would. I am commenting on the chemistry we've seen between them to date... it feels more brother/sisterish than anything else. If you got the sense that I don't like Daniel because I called him a nerd, however, you are way off. "Nerd" is seriously like the highest compliment I could give anyone. If you read back through some of my really old recaps, you will see that. But you were right that I don't like Charlotte. I love nerdiness (Daniel), I can deal with snarkiness (Miles), but I don't like straight-up arrogance (Charlotte). Hope that makes sense!

G-man - Thanks! I am very sick right now so it has made me feel a bit better to hear the nice comments.

Crikey - OOPS! I fixed it on my site after reading your comment, but alas, the typo remains on Dark's site (I don't have editing abilities). Perhaps I was subconsciously thinking of the song "MMMBop" by Hanson? (Damn good song, I don't care what anyone says!)

Mon, 05 May 2008 13:34:00 -0000

Surly - Well said.

jacob's chair - Yes, it would be kind of funny if we actually DIDN'T end up seeing Jacob in the next episode... but you would know best, considering your screen name!

jake3988 - Yeah, I have to admit that the "Claire being dead" one is something I would've never thought of myself. And I consider my mind to be quite twisted.

Chester Kilburn - I think you are right that there is reason to hold out hope for Charlotte. I hated Miles at first, too, but they have done a great job turning him into a more likable character (for me, at least).

Andrew Sparkes - I like the parallel to S Wars you drew... haven't seen it written out exactly like that before. I am a huge SW fans, as are apparently the writers of Lost, so I'm sure they've been influenced in ways they don't even realize.

dmalato2 - Actually, in my "Meet Kevin Johnson" write-up, in the "Official Lost Podcast Debrief" section near the end, the producers talk about the Eko scene with the psychic. It comes down to what the viewer wants to believe for now... is he real or is he a scam artist? I think he did have a vision with Claire, and told Eko that he was a fake because he didn't want to deal with Eko (remember, Eko was pretty scary!).

t.l.a. - Yes, in my write-up for "The Constant," near the end in the "Another Visit to Eggtown" section, I talk about this. It's definitely proof (to me, at least) that they've had Aaron and Claire's story line figured out for a while now.

lorilooski - Yay, I'm glad someone notices them!

Hi everyone -

Ugh, I'm actually REALLY sick now... went to the doctor and got some prescriptions (uh oh... who am I sounding like?), but--SO classic--the pharmacy couldn't read the dr's handwriting! So now I have to suffer through the night until they can get things cleared up tomorrow. I hope I don't have "the sickness!"

Anyway, I really like this whole idea being discussed about the psychic possibly knowing that the "nice couple in L.A." might be Kate and... someone (maybe Jack, maybe someone else). The whole "they're not strangers" line is REALLY eerie in retrospect, too. My altar to the Lost writers will have to be built even higher if they planned this whole thing out way back when.

Regarding the possibility of Charlotte and Daniel being responsible for Jack's illness... I think I would have an easier time with that idea if there weren't only three episodes left. I just think they are trying to wrap things up, and so the more obvious possibilities are going to be the ones we see played out. They had Rose say what she said for a reason... and they never showed us any scenes with Daniel and Charlotte conspiring or looking suspicious or anything BEFORE Jack got sick, so I just simply don't think there's enough time to bring that twist into the mix now.

I expect these final episodes to be very action-packed... there's a lot they need to address about the Oceanic Six!

OK, I need to go find some MacCutcheon's whiskey to knock myself out for the night...

Tue, 13 May 2008 10:22:00 -0000

Lets see how many of these I can get through...

Jay - And *I* have been waiting a long time to read all of your comments!

Boky - I can't wait for the next ep either... especially since I'll have to watch it later than usual. : (

bsti - Wow, I never thought about Ageless Abaddon. You are correct, he didn't look much different between Locke's rehab days and 1995...

lostfan831 - Yes, I agree. Ben did say "I used to have dreams," but I felt like he knew he was still REALLY the one in control or something.

t.l.a. - Perhaps as others have stated, Abaddon is a free agent of sorts, so, like you said, he's not anyone's lackey? That would be pretty cool. And yes, I think Keamy was only looking at the pictures in the binder.

bongzilla - My past, present and future are all in disarray, indeed. I've actually been sick for a while now... but I dare say today is the first day I feel back to 100%. Just in time for my trip, yay.

Miguel - I think if this scene happened in Season 2 I would be more apt to think that you were on to something with your theory... but now I think it's too late in the game for the Purge to have been Horace's idea. I think, as others mentioned, we saw him again because it was the Island/Jacob's way of "choosing" Locke. Further, there have also been whispers of people who were never on the Island, like when Sawyer heard "It'll come back around" from that dude he worked with. So I'm not sure how that would fit in?

Kristian01 - I bow down to you, oh stand-up comic! I have a ton of respect for anyone who can get up there and do that. I personally love going to improv shows here in Chicago (and there are a ton of great ones here, as I'm sure you know). Anyway, yes, I guess I never thought of Richard simply time traveling in the old fashioned way. Anything is possible in this show!

Jake3988 - I agree that that "awesome" line with Hurley was probably one of the funniest moments we've had on the series in a long time. And it was so understated, that's what made it great. I would love those guys to work together too... as you said, even if it's the last episode of S6!

richlost - Don't I even get any credit for starting to phase the use of "Benry" out over this season? I seriously did listen to that criticism from comments to my posts earlier on, but I just didn't want to go cold turkey (especially because a lot of people DO still like it). I also have to just say that as a writer, I absolutely HATE repeating words over and over again. Like when I do movie reviews, I can't stand to keep writing "movie" so I'll write "film," "flick," "on the big screen," "on the silver screen"--you know, thesaurusizing. I think mixing up Ben with Benry is just my strange way of doing that.

BUT... I agree that it's time to put that nickname to rest (I will keep using all of the other ones though, sorry). So anyone reading these comments has officially witnessed the end of my usage of Benry (on Dark's site only... it will still live on on my own site).

I hope your keyboard has survived this season! ; )

Amber - I love "Burley." And I wouldn't put Richard past bribing other people, either.

henry holland - Yeah, I didn't play TLE, and I even though I read most everything that came out of it, I try to write for a general audience and don't want to assume that people know about what went down off-screen. See comments above about the Death Of Benry. I have definitely realized that the producers pick and choose which questions they want to give answers to! But someone did ask them about the polar bear before, and they did answer it, talking about "special places on the earth" like Ayers Rock in Australia. It was one of the official podcasts earlier in the season.

libfemcatlover - I love that comparison! Quick, get Turniphead off the Island before he grows a snout!

blandestk - See above and rejoice about the Death Of Benry. And yeah, I guess I forgot about the "not ready" part with Richard. I used to look EVERYWHERE on the boards, including comment sections of picture screencaps on this site and Cubit and whatnot. Now because of all of the spoilers, I will peek on Television Without Pity just a tad, but my brother (bless his heart) does most of the heavy lifting... screening through spoilers for me to send random thoughts from all over the place, even Michigan Football message boards?!!? Sorry I can't give you a more definitive answer. A lot of people also email me directly with thoughts... and if it's something no one else has said, I will give them a shout-out. But often times it's a theory/idea I've seen multiple times already. People leave a lot of anonymous comments on my own site, too. I only look at Lostpedia's episode transcripts to get the "Best Lines" (and I do like their timeline, as I've mentioned before).

dmalato2 - Yes, I think you're on to something there... it's like the Island uses and then discards various 'special' people over the course of time who fit its needs during a certain period.

t.l.a. (again!) - Yep, I get it now... Richard kept testing the waters with Locke until he was utterly and completely ready. And then he straight-up nabbed him!

Surly - I used to love Doc's reviews, but quite frankly, I know for a fact that he is very much in touch with the producers, so I stay away from them now--he gives spoilers without even realizing it, I think. I caught on to it when Locke was shot last season and I was absolutely freaking out that he was going to die, and Doc didn't even MENTION it in his review. I was like, "OK, he KNOWS Locke isn't going to die because... he has either seen future eps or has been told." I'm definitely glad I didn't read his latest if you're saying he predicts Locke is going to kill everyone?!? Oh geez, but what if he's right?!!!

A random rambler - There was some line in this latest episode that was almost exactly "man of science"... and that's what made the alarm go off in my head, since we all know who the Man of Science is now on the Island...

midnightstorybear - Not sure where the bitterness comes from in your comment... are you one of my ex-boyfriends or something? You always seem to hate on me in your comments and that's the only thing I can figure... : )

lorilooski - In the transcripts they have her saying "I'm pregnant"... first quietly and then again when the nurses actually hear her. Maybe that's what you heard? I like the idea of Christian capturing Jacob... you're right... after the "help me" line we've only seen Zombie Dad in the shack... interesting.

demundo59 - I like that idea, too. I mean, if Widmore claimed the Island was his before, then he's probably been there and maybe was the one who ordered the Purge. But then that would mean that he wasn't ever really with Dharma (despite having the binder with the logo on it now)... since he would've killed his own team in the Purge.

Marisa - I was especially proud of that caption - I think it was one of my best ever, IMHO.

blueangel503/Christine - Thank you for your funny comments! I definitely think and hope that Abaddon is a free agent. Tell your friend Joe he is right--after everything we've gone through, how can we NOT trust the writers at this point?

boz - I remember that line from "Further Instructions" too, and always thought it was weird. I hope you are wrong about Abaddon. Though I agree that Naomi and co. had a cover story for their mission, maybe that was because Abaddon thought he would put THEM in danger if they really knew what else was going on on the Island? I still hope he's in no way connected to Keamy. Man, I hate Keamy.

damosh - I like the idea that Richard was egging Locke on to become what he needed to become in order to be ready for his role on the Island. And that would be pretty crazy if Abaddon and Widmore were connected from the Black Rock!

Crikey - Thank you, my dear. A nice way to end this string of comments.

Thanks for reading everyone!

Jonathan - Sorry I missed you in the first go-round, we must have been typing at the same time. Yeah the "they're not strangers" thing is INSANE... I can't claim credit for that, though... that was all my savvy readers who put two and two together!

Surly - Good God, I don't even know what to say about your recap of Doc's recent articles. Very bizarre. I agree with you that it would be AWFUL if they have tried so hard to make this a "character story" and then totally kill us all by making Locke turn eeevil. That would be awful, and I'm sure Terry O'Quinn himself would also be very disappointed.

I'm jealous that you have ghosts in your posts (that rhymes!).

blandestk - I just got done with a freelancing assignment, so I have a little bit more time this week than I normally have... trying to make up for lost (pun intended) time!

richlost - I do what I can. : ) But remember, my next write-up will be extra-late, because I'm going on vacay Thursday and won't even watch the episode until Monday. But at least we have a break from the show next week, so it's not like there's a huge rush.

Jamthonzi - I totally don't get your comment... you think I'm Jack biased? Were you reading the right review? Seriously.

I would also say that the Horace dream probably IS directly relevant to the LOST mythology in hindsight... I've pretty much realized through all the comments above why the Horace dream was needed, and I admitted it. How is that an "unwillingness to appreciate" the scene?

But I really don't get why anyone would EVER say "except for your USUAL Jack bias." What?!?! I don't hate on Jack, but umm... my site is named Long Live Locke.

chester kilburn - Good point... he might have stolen a plan... similar to the ones we saw in Patchy's basement in "Enter 77." Especially if Widmore has in fact been on the Island before. Never thought of that!

Abigail - I never thought about the weird door and other things also perhaps tying into some ancient prophecy, that would be very cool.

Lostfan23 - Yes, I did actually notice that... they showed the same skull last season too when Locke fell in there and I mentioned it in that write-up. If everyone was gassed... why a bullethole to the head? Seems fishy...

orlost - I warned everyone it would be long! I don't want to hear it! ; ) Right, Horace was on the bench, oops.

Hi everyone...

As always, thank you for reading and commenting. First off, I think the whole "what is Aaron eating?" thing is just unfortunately one of those things that, like Hurley not drastically dropping weight, we just have to accept, as unrealistic as it may be (Smokey, anyone?). It WOULD be funny if they actually address it at some point, though!

For other comments:

gaz2520530 - The scene where Hurley visited Sun, as another commenter mentioned, was AFTER she had given birth... several months after she had bought the shares. That doesn't rule Hurley out as a major benefactor, but he would've had to give her the money beforehand. And he also gave some/most to his parents, as his dad mentioned in the episode.

jake3988 - Yeah, you're probably right. I think I was reading too much into that line, he was just trying to smooth things over.

Crikey - Thanks... I think the quality of my posts is directly related to how much I liked the episode. We need Faraday to run a regression analysis!

Freckles - It's like Kelly said on 90210 back in the day, "I choose ME!"

Surly - Yeah, Ben might have wanted to keep the baton "safe" with Locke for a while.

nodecode - Yes, the music makes many of my favorite episodes even better. I have the first two soundtracks and love them even separated from the show.

Jimbo - Yes, there are a few theories out there about Daniel possibly having conscience-traveled to the Island... hence his notes and hence his crying at the 815 wreckage.

Regarding Jack's non-gray beard... I actually read somewhere--maybe a podcast transcript--that the producers did intentionally make his beard darker in the season 3 finale in order to throw people off that it was in the future. Because yes, normally his beard has lots of gray.

Interesting that that was maybe a vision and not really Claire's mom... planting the seeds of doubt in Jack.

falajir - Thanks! I hope you are done crying for now!

loubnc - That would be AWESOME.

simutiger - It really is weird... I hope they DO have an answer one day. I mean, they must... it would've been just as easy to have the crash take place en route... there MUST be a reason for its location...

Jason - Yes, there is a spot on my site... very small... a text link that says something like "7 comments from my peeps!" Click on that to get to the comments.

I agree that the finale can really only be judged after all three hours are shown together.

I hope we eventually find out who lostfan108 is!

blueangel503 - Yeah, I think the thing next to Jack in the pilot looks too plastic-y to be dark bamboo. I was not aware of the Peter Pan theory (but that was my fave ride at Disney World a few weeks ago...)... makes sense, and there are certainly other allusions to kids' books on the show.

Wed, 11 Jun 2008 08:57:00 -0000

Hey everyone -

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond to comments this time around... I think I went into some sort of shock after finally publishing that post!

Anyway, I just wanted to comment on a few topics that kept coming up above:

1) I definitely overlooked the possibility that Sun found out via Locke that Ben was responsible for killing Keamy and therefore blowing up the freighter. I still personally feel that it remains more Keamy/Widmore's fault for having the explosives, arming the dead-man's trigger and coming to the Island to kill everyone in the first place than it is Ben's fault for killing Keamy, but whatever... Sun may not see it that way and may be willing to sell Ben out.

2) Regarding the other three who were mentioned in the press release, as I stated at the beginning of that section, I personally did not read too much into it since the producers said it didn't matter. I just wanted to provide one semi-reason for each of them being named, because I knew it was bugging a lot of people. But upon further thought, I think the producers may be fibbing a bit (as they have done before... remember "No time travel" and "Nothing that can't be explained by science?", anyone? Anyway, if the other three who died didn't matter at all, why was it mentioned not only in the extended finale, but also in Eggtown during Kate's trial? Suspicious.

3) VERY freaky about Christian's clothes changing. I wonder if they are the clothes of anyone else who has died on the Island, perhaps?

4) Regarding where the polar bears came from in the first place, I thought before it had been established that Dharma brought them for testing in the cages near the Hydra?

5) I like two of the theories that were mentioned above about what couldn't gone wrong on the Island: 1) that Dharma returns (hence the Octagon ad during the finale) or 2) that Christian has taken over from Jacob and is up to no good and fools Locke at the beginning.

6) I like the idea that Helen does have a son with Locke. I also forgot that Tustin is a suburb of LA, so Locke has lived in the LA
area before.

7) For those of you who are rewatching the show from the pilot over the hiatus, watch for ALL of the many "hints" that some of the characters have been on the Island before, even though they may not remember it completely. The producers did say that the anagram to "Mittelos"=Lost Time and that it is a major clue, and I am not going to let go of the time loop theory entirely until it is blown out of the water! Though I will admit that I think it's less plausible now, and that it would kind of suck if the series ended where it began, because that would be the 06 never find happiness.

8) The caption to Locke looking down at the Others is on my site, longlivelocke.com... I unfortunately can't fix the code here on DarkUFO once I upload the post. Sorry! I'm glad to see people are reading them, though!

I hope everyone is getting their summers off to a great start... it's been beautiful and sunny here in Chicago, and that has helped with the pain of Lost being over.

Hi everyone -

Thanks for your comments. I fully realize that tons of holes can be poked in what I was saying in my post, and trust me... I sincerely hope that everything gets explained in the show much more clearly. I'm not one of those people who's like "MY THEORY MUST BE TRUE, DAMMIT!" : ) But I have a feeling that no matter what we see over the next 32 episodes -- even if it's an explanation that's completely different from mine, tons of holes are still going to be able to be poked in it. There are simply too many characters and too many interactions between everyone to have something not fall through the cracks by the writers, you know? They're only human!

And as promised, here are the songs from which I took lyrics for the “Because You Left” section headings, in order:

“You Spin Me Around (Like a Record)” by Dead or Alive

“Energy” by Kid ‘N Play

“If I Could Turn Back Time” by Cher

“Daniel” by Elton John

“Knowing Me, Knowing you” by ABBA

“Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time)” by New Kids on the Block (and originally by The Delfonics)

“I Can’t Stay” by The Killers

“Nobody Told Me” by John Lennon

Thanks for reading!

Sun, 25 Jan 2009 12:18:00 -0000

Hi everyone -

I'm definitely not going to be able to keep up with the comments this time around as I have to get to the post for "The Lie," but just a few quick things on some of the points made so far:

1) I fear I didn't explain myself as clearly as I would've liked with the time travel stuff. I agree that for Desmond the memory didn't hit him until it actually "happened," meaning at the exact moment that Daniel reached him at the Swan. My confusion had been about WHEN we saw Desmond "remember" this encounter. I thought that everything had occurred on the Island in a matter of a few hours, so Des should've had the memory shortly after he left the Island. But it took three years, meaning that a few hours on the Island while they've been time-jumping is equivalent to three years passing Outside The Island.

2) Regarding Ethan and Locke... Ethan was NOT time-traveling -- Locke was jumping through time to a point where Ethan was on the Island. You can tell that Ethan does not see the same flash that Locke sees. Therefore, there is no "suppressed memory" for Ethan, or, in other words, the encounter with Locke happened to both Ethan's body and mind at the same time (unlike Locke's) and then Ethan continued along his space-time path just as he had before. So it's not like he would've "remembered" it later were he still alive, because he should've remembered it from the point it happened onward. I hope that makes sense, but the key is that Ethan was not time-shifting and therefore these weird memory issues don't apply to him.

All that being said, I know that there are several other issues with this whole idea that make it less likely... specifically regarding the Des/Daniel encounter and some of the other characters, but the Ethan/Locke meeting definitely still makes sense (to me, at least!).

OK, one more... I know about the in-joke with Smokey's sound being from the NYC cab... but I also think the producers didn't want to draw suspicion to her comment in Season One. These are the same guys who said there wouldn't be time travel... come on, people! They WANT to throw us off, as they should have, especially back in Season One! I'm personally glad that they throw out red herrings, it wouldn't be fun if it weren't so damn confusing. Right? (Crickets chirping.)

Hi guys -

Infidelblues - Oops! Sorry about the mess up on Lean On Me... unfortunately I cannot edit my comment (that I know of).

Regarding the beer, it's unfortunately just a prop used across other shows (first bullet point on this page):

Hey guys -

I have a wicked kink in my neck from too much sitting/typing, so I will just comment on a few quick things:

- Yes, I definitely think that Hawking could be Charlotte's mum instead of Faraday's

- We actually KNOW that Des's timeline is also three years after he left the island because Penny says so to him... something like "You've been off the Island for three years, you're safe" when he wakes up with his vision (I watched again to be sure, because at first I also thought it was a big assumption to make that his scene would be from the same time period's as the O6's. But it is.)

- I also sincerely hope that the statue isn't of Sawyer. Just throwing everything out there.

- Regarding Locke killing that dude from the past... this is where it gets tricky. One could argue that if there's truly a time loop going on, that Locke "always" killed that guy. Or maybe that guy was going to die that night anyway by some other means, so the universe allowed it to happen. That's all I've got for that question - I agree it's a tough one to wrap the ol' mind around.

It's almost Wednesday again!

Hi everyone -

A few quick comments on some of the ideas/questions left so far...

1) I did mention the pic of Ms. Hawking and Brother Campbell... I know it's very easy to miss in these long write-ups, though! It's in the section where I recap all of the Penny/Widmore/Desmond meetings/higlights to date, near the end.

2) Regarding what looks to be Oxford in the back of that photo with Brother Campbell... that definitely may be proof that she was at Oxford at some point, but then again, they've used that same background (I wrote about this in my post about visiting Oahu) for a church Charlie and Liam were at in the UK, as well as a church Eko was at, and many other things in the show. But overall, since I can only hope they're trying to wrap up mysteries at this point, I would guess that perhaps we could assume that was Oxford in the pic.

3) As someone said above, the "enhanced" episodes are show before the new ones, but this may just be in the U.S. Yet another reason why it is ridiculous for them to dole out key information during those airings. I'm still mad about this?!?!

4) Regarding the bomb... all I said at the beginning of my post is that I assume it's buried in the ground covered in concrete under what will be/once was the Swan hatch. This is because of the comment Sayid made about Chernobyl back in Season Two. I do not, however, think that the bomb has necessarily anything to do with the countdown timer or that "incident room." I think they could be two separate things. The swan may have been built by Dharma twenty years after the bomb was built - they may have never known it was there. I think the Island has electromagnetic properties that have nothing to do with the bomb.

5) Like the theory about Locke above... makes sense to me... I've always been a believer in some sort of time loop going on, too -- things happen... because they happened.

Thanks everyone once again for reading... I have to say this was a really hard write-up for me to do. On Saturday afternoon I said to my husband, "I honestly don't think I can do this." I was just braindead from the two the week prior! So I REALLY appreciate your comments... Truly.

Hi everyone -

Ugh, very frustrating... I posted a long response and then it didn't go through.

So this one will have to be a lot shorter, sorry...

Per some of the comments above:

- Yes, can't believe I forgot Horace as a CF contender! Very strong possibility, indeed.
- Jin was not a nice guy at all pre-Island, remember? Hurley's got him beat by a mile.
- I went to Michigan for my undergraduate degree... how could I NOT put in all those shout-outs?
- I went back through old transcripts and realized that we were never actually shown/told how/when Jack and Kate ended their engagement (if I missed something, let me know). So I guess we don't know who exactly called it off. Regardless, I definitely agree that the source of Kate's weirdness is 98% Aaron-related, and I, too, hope they don't go back to the whole love-triangle. That's the main reason why I'm really hoping she's not pregnant.
- I don't think the shot of the torn note meant much... they just didn't want us to see a lot of it since it was the beginning of the episode and we didn't know what that note was just yet.

Thanks again for reading!

Hey everyone -

Thanks again for reading and commenting... I unfortunately can't respond to every idea, but here are a few quick thoughts on some of the latest posts above:

- LOVE the line about Aaron being in an animal carrier and representing Vincent. That is hilarious.
- Yes, the part about Widmore not being able to find the Island again if he was originally involved with The Lamp Post definitely doesn't make sense. So Widmore might have had nothing to do with the Lamp Post... though that doesn't rule out Hanso, the DeGroots, Chang or Horace Goodspeed.
- I am very much NOT into any theories about "Christian is actually Jack" or any other characters actually BEING each other (that includes Jacob) -- I know that the show has already gotten really complicated, but I think that would be taking it too far, even for us crazy fans who have so far been willing to deal with smoke monsters and time travel and whatnot. Plus, I mean, think about it: one cannot father oneself.
- Definitely could've been Dead Libby that convinced Hurley... I just figured since he had a guitar it had something to do with Charlie.
- I, too, have no idea how Kate could be let out of the US or why Sayid would be on a flight to Guam.

Thankfully, I'm sure we'll get more answers not too long from now...

Hi everyone -

I'm here at JFK airport waiting for my flight, just wanted to check in and thank everyone for all of the great discussion! I won't have time to respond directly to each comment, but here are some of my thoughts on the more popular topics:

- Yes, I clearly forgot about the bunnies, and the 2 Lockes/Sawers/Juliets. That's what happens when I don't spend 4 days thinking about things before writing! : ) Although, I WILL say that we don't really know if the "original" Locke, Juliet and Sawyers disappeared for a moment when the second versions showed up. In the Season One episode the Losties time traveled back to (I think it was "Do No Harm," but note sure),the hatch light was already on, and Locke was alone above it by the time the time-traveling Losties arrived. And First Sawyer was alone in the jungle after having given Kate all of his alcohol. And maybe Juliet was alone in her home in Othersville. What I'm saying is, there weren't necessarily any witnesses to whether or not those three disappeared for a bit while their "new" versions appeared in the time flashes. If a Sawyer disappears in the jungle but there's no one to see it... ?

But seriously, though, I agree that there probably can be two versions of the same person at the same time. Perhaps what I should've said is that I don't think two versions of the same character will ever SEE each other. I think that might qualify as a Jump The Shark moment. Also, maybe the bunny/Orchid video was meant to convey to us that bad things happen when two versions of the same thing (bunnies/humans) exist in close proximity to each other at the same point in space-time. But maybe if they're kept separated, it's OK. We shall see...

- Regarding the statue... yes, I agree that the shorter skirt is usually associated with males in the Ancient Egyptian culture. I still am not sure how important WHO the statue is will be overall, though.

- I also wonder if the identity of the baby boy is all that important, either, or rather just one of those "oh, cool!" moments that doesn't really add much to the show. I mean, obviously all of the characters we've come to see over the course of the series have been born at some point, and regardless of whether the baby is Daniel, Karl, Ethan, Thomas or whoever else, what would that really do for the overall plot line? The only theory that seems a little more substantial is that Ethan was given to Richard and raised as an Other to further pay for the killing of those two men. But, um, as some others said, Ethan looks significantly older than 27 in 2004, and also doesn't exactly look like he could be the spawn of short, reddish-haired Horace and short, brunette, curly-haired Amy. Ethan was a tall, menacing dude!

- And finally, one funny note on Richard's eyeliner... someone posted a link on my site in the comments section (longlivelocke.com) that confirms he actually doesn't wear any eyeliner... his eyes are just "that way." I found it hilarious that someone actually wrote an article on that.

Have a good weekend, everyone...

Tue, 24 Mar 2009 18:45:00 -0000

Hi everyone -

Thanks for the comments! I think there are some very good theories and new ideas above that help shed new light on the most debated issues. I'm short on time so I can't go person by person, but here are a few of my overall thoughts:

- Regarding whether or not what we saw was the Barracks or just the Processing Center that is outside the main Othersville community: Across Dark's site and mine I've now been reminded of so much conflicting evidence -- ON THE SHOW -- of the location of the Barracks, that now I'm leaning even more strongly toward: "Yellow building = Barracks, end of story." In some episodes/maps/still shots, the Barracks have been shown to be far inland. But in others, they were just a short ways off the pier. So I'm siding with the explanation that would make sense for the vast majority of Lost fans who do NOT obsess on message boards: if Sun and Frank were in yellow houses, they were at the Barracks. (To Kia, who asked about the real set location -- yes, it's all in the same place, it's a YMCA kid's camp, not that that should factor into how the buildings are spread out on the show, though...)

- Whether or not the past can be changed: I like Zorro's idea about Desmond being brought into the mix. Let's face it, he can't be out of the series for good, right? I certainly hope not!

- Daniel's Location: I like hello's idea that because Faraday was seen hanging around the Orchid, he might have actually time-traveled off of the Island. THIS would be how he could perhaps be the Clever Fellow who sets up The Lamp Post in LA in order for Dharma to find the Island in the first place. I couldn't put together how that could've happened, but forgot that he was specifically nosing around the Orchid -- ie, the center for all time traveling needs.

- The 815 plane crash was stated on the show to be in September 2004, several times, so we know that much is for certain.

skywokker77 - Believe it or not, there have been other goofs like this on the show. Go to this page and look for those in the far-right column labeled "crew placement."
http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Blooper

No one's perfect! And since the producers just copped to screwing up something which I deem to be much more important -- Charlotte's birth date -- I think it's definitely conceivable that a random crew person could be in this particular shot. Watch the extras of the DVDs, you'll see how close the crew stands around the actors, it's crazy. But as I said in my post, if it was supposed to be Claire... then what? That doesn't really give us anything new.

Henry Holland - You have convinced me that Jack is a wimp and therefore Ethan had no super-strength. : )

ek - Love the pyramid analogy. I fear you may be onto something.

Monty B - I don't think the Swan was built yet because Radzinsky said to Sawyer, "he saw the model of the Swan, and he could've seen the survey of where we're building it." That doesn't mean they didn't create the logo for the hatch yet, hence Chang's jacket...

Mon, 06 Apr 2009 09:58:00 -0000

OK, a few responses:

- Regarding Kate not giving Aaron up to Claire's mom right away, esp. after she saw her at Christian's funeral: I realize how some people could argue that that would've been "the right thing to do," but I honestly believe if we put ourselves in the 815er's shoes, it wouldn't have seemed like a good way to go because, as I stated in the recap, they knew that Aaron could be in danger if they weren't looking over him. That's why they all decided to lie about what happened overall in the first place -- to protect not only themselves, but mostly those left behind. Once Kate knew that all of them were going back, she knew that if someone wanted to find the Island, they'd now follow the O5 and not a three-year-old left with his Grandma, so she felt he was essentially safe at that point. And she probably felt bringing him back to the Island was too risky. TRUST ME... if you read back through my older recaps, you will see that I'm not a huge Kate fan, but I try to remain objective in each episode and try to think how the characters think. And it just seems like leaving Aaron with anyone else right after the drama of what happened when they left would've been deemed a huge risk to his life.

- I didn't remember Ben admitting he wasn't born on the Island, oops. Still don't, but I trust you guys. : )

- Regarding Evi's reaction on Kimmel... not to get too technical, but if the rest of this season covers just a few days or weeks of time in 1977 for the Losties, there's always the possibility that we wouldn't find out -- and therefore Evi wouldn't know -- that Kate is pregnant. It's not like women instantaneously know if they're pregnant, people! But once again, I'm in the camp that hopes this doesn't happen. I was just sharing theories in case it does come to pass.

- I also was just stating other theories that are out there when I mentioned that Ben might not remember ANYTHING. I hope this isn't the case, either, and agree that it wouldn't fit with him looking at the dolls Annie gave him when he was a grown man, etc., etc. I certainly hope he remembers the majority of his life, still.

- If Kate is Claire's mom, I think I will spontaneously combust.

- I hope we find out more about Richard and the overall Others hierarchy, too.

- Kristi - I did indeed go to Adams. : ) I was on student council and was the one who put ALL of those d@mn pennies into wrappers... hence my shout-out to Mr. Judge (who found me on Facebook and reads these recaps!)

Thanks again for commenting, everyone...

Hi everyone -

I just wanted to thank you all for your support on this plagiarism debacle. If you haven't checked out Jay and Jack's latest podcast from Monday, you really should -- they talk about this drama for several minutes at the very end, and it's hilarious. Although I think they refer to me as "Emily," but it's all good. : )

Anyway, it seems like most of the commenters here on Dark's site understand what the legal issue is. For those of you who still do not, you can check out what an Intellectual Property lawyer had to say about it here:

http://entertaining-thoughts.blogspot.com/2009/04/lost-and-law-meet-i-dont-know-what-to.html

He then further clarified the issue for people in the comments section of latest post here:

https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20981436&postID=2530250921411258327

(You will have to scroll down a ways, and he posts under MikeNJD -- there are over 100 comments listed so far and he's currently near the tail-end but may keep moving up.)

To commenter paki27/MikeS - Although I have consulted with IP attorneys on this issue (nice that my brother's a lawyer and so is my upstairs neighbor... and several friends), I presently do not have a lawsuit against Seanie B. I have been advised that if I was to pursue legal action, that both myself and Vozzek69 should get separate attorneys, as we have different claims. Right now, however, Vozzek69 and I are awaiting a response from a message we sent Seanie B yesterday afternoon, in which we outlined a few simple steps Seanie B could take to avoid us pursuing this matter any further. Trust me, I DO NOT want to spend any more time or energy on this, and I certainly don't WANT to have to pay to hire a lawyer, but I will if that's what it takes.

Hopefully, no lawsuit will be necessary. Last I checked, Seanie B's videos have been taken down (he took content word-for-word from Vozzek throughout all of season five and part of season four, so all of those videos are gone), which is what we asked him to do. As long as they do not magically reappear with our work still in them, and as long as Seanie B responds privately to the message Vozzek and I have sent him and lets us know how he intends to handle the other requests we have made, then hopefully this whole thing will end and we can all move on to "Some Like it Hoth."

Finally, to your question, this is about getting our copyrighted content (that he presented as his own) out of Sean's videos that appeared in multiple places on the internet, NOT about making money by suing Seanie B. A lawsuit would be about him removing the materials to our satisfaction. Since our materials are seriously sprinkled throughout ALL of Sean's videos from this season and others from last season, it may just be easier for him to leave the videos down than spend countless hours comparing our recaps to his videos and making the needed edits. We're not about to help him pinpoint where he plagiarized from us.

Thanks again to everyone for their support, it is pretty much all that has gotten me through these past few days. Well, your messages... and a lot of junk food.

Who's ready for the show tomorrow?

I was traveling this weekend so sorry about the delay in responding to some of these comments... here are a few thoughts:

- Locke4God - I think we already know why Miles has his ability... it's simply because he was born on the Island. What I meant in my post is that I don't think we'll ever learn if his MOM died because of some disease related to HER time on the Island...

- Philip Jackson - Oops! I corrected it in my own site but can't edit my posts once they're up on DarkUFO.

- damnbeuno - I would think that the fake black box was yet another way for Widmore to cover his tracks, so to speak. And I definitely think dissecting the timing of when one usually gets an invoice is probably nitpicking a little too much. While I agree that the ABC recap specials aren't always completely approved by Darlton, I think in this case, as others stated, there are SO MANY bigger mysteries in the show that this is one that probably isn't worth debating over any longer. If your point is that Widmore faking the wreckage doesn't prove that he is "a bad guy," then I agree. All it proves is that he faked the wreckage... we have yet to fully understand his motivations.

- Regarding the version of Empire Strikes Back that WE all know being the "amended" version because Hurley's script got to Lucas... I love it. That's what I'll choose to believe from here on out. : )

The next episode is supposedly Carlton Cuse's second-favorite of the season (behind TLADOJBentham), so I've got high hopes!

See you back here in a week or so, and as always, thanks for reading and commenting...

Hi everyone -

As always, thanks for reading and commenting! A few thoughts on some of the ideas above:

Jennesan - Duh! I can't believe I didn't think of the possibility that the Losties are the ones who end up CAUSING the incident rather than preventing it. That would definitely mesh well with a lot of other things we've seen (like Richard giving Locke the compass that Locke gave Richard... and so on).

Stephan and others who feel compassion for Eloise - I definitely think that Eloise could end up being a more sympathetic character. But I've got to go by what we've seen of her so far, and so far I've found her actions pretty hard to justify. I'll keep my mind open, of course, if we see more of her back-story in future episodes.

lost4evr - As with many other things on the show, just because we didn't see it happen doesn't mean it didn't happen. I'm OK with believing that Daniel said his name at some point to Ellie in 1954 but it wasn't shown on screen, as all of their time together clearly wasn't shown on screen (we didn't see their entire walk to Jughead, etc, etc).

KevinJGuhl - I agree with you that most of the characters' lives weren't that great before the crash... and it would be kind of depressing to think of Locke never getting to be his bad-ass Island self, or Claire giving up Aaron, etc., etc. However, I think if theory #2 in my recap actually transpired, then some of the characters would end up being on Flight 815 in the first place... that perhaps their lives would've already taken different paths. And I'm with you that the idea of the series ending with the original Flight 815 landing but everyone still someone having memories of the alternate timeline doesn't really make any sense. I wouldn't like it if that's how it ended, that's for sure. Who cares what his memories were of, Locke would still be in the wheelchair at his dead-end job and whatnot.

Carlos - That is in fact what Hawking said, but the producers clarified in an interview later that season that she did in fact mean that everyone in the world would die, not just certain characters. This was in the Feb 20, 2007 podcast:

http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Official_Lost_Podcast/February_20,_2007

In that same podcast, they also refer to Desmond's "ORIGINAL TIMELINE," so I think that gives credence to the fact that things can be changed!

Enjoy the new episode this week, everyone!

Hi again everyone -

A reader on my site just sent me this note, which I felt might be appropriate to share with you over here as well:

"I too was stumped over the Comic Con video and a recent Lostpedia interview asked Darlton the same question. I didn't really like their response, since the video has been incorporated into fans minds since Comic Con:

"I think some people believe that they hear Faraday's voice in the Comic-Con experience. These events are sort of partially canon but more promotional than they are canon. Giving the audience a sneak peak as to what the season is about.""

I guess that answers that! Kind of disappointing, huh?

Thu, 14 May 2009 20:52:00 -0000

Hey there everyone -

Erika here, writer of this post...

Just a few quick comments...

1) I fully realize now that there probably aren't Locke clones, that the Orchid video was about two time-traveling bunnies (not clones), and that A-J could very well either BE Smokey or be Smokey-like in his ability to take on others' forms without actually possessing their physical bodies/corpses. So you can expect my "real" recap to not belabor the clone question and rather investigate how long A-J has been up to his trickery on the Island.

2) I have since been told that the ABC.com recap lists the statue as Taweret (what I originally thought in my LaFleur post), which -- after seeing the crocodile-ish face last night -- I'm pretty astonished by. But I'm assuming they should know the right name for the statue on their own show, right? (I hope?)

3) I think a few people misinterpreted my post to mean that I thought Locke was now evil. That's not the case... I fully realize that Terry O'Quinn is now simply playing another character who has taken over the form of John Locke. And I do get how that is going to be kind of cool to see next season and all that. But that doesn't mean I can't also be sad about the loss of my favorite character and hope that he may somehow still return to the show. Since the series is now way, way, WAY past the realm of "this can all be explained by science," I think anything is possible. To those who doubt that, I can give you about 1,000 examples of other things that don't make sense on the show yet we've all rolled with them for five years!

GEORGEW - Um, no. Sadly, I don't think there's any way at this point that the Locke that's been running around on the Island since Ajira returned is actually Real Locke.

Thanks again for reading... stay tuned for the full recap in a week or so!

Re: Local Sheriff Buys a Tank, Others Clamor to Fight “Domestic Terrorists”

Sat, 11 Oct 2008 22:56:55 -0000

Rev Spitz:
I can see why you are concerned about abortion laws. However, your missing this blogs point, which is ( among other things) that those who associate themselves with peaceful direct action groups, such as ALF and ELF are labbelled terrorists, and Right wing extremist groups are not even on the list, when they themselves are murders and use violent means to achiece there ends.

Furthermore, i read your article about Paul Hill and his murder. I find it quite ironic that Hill, as a member of the peace promoting christian faith, uses violent HUMAN HARMING and KILLING methods to achieve his means. A rule of the ALF is to take all possible precautions not to harm anyone, while Hill did the exact opposite.

Abortion though, is a topic that in the grand scheme of things is not that big of a topic. Human fetuse's or babies do not have the capacity to fear or think in anyway so as to differentiate between non-humans, and they have or depending on thier stage in the womb, only the basic abilities of pain and hunger. So I pose the question to you: how come unborn babie fetuses, which can have no or little cognition or sentience be regarded in such high standards that you are willing to kill for, when you willingly partake in the slaughter and death of over 100 animals a year by leading a meat based diet?

The fact is that over 130 billion animals die each year for food, and only about a couple thousands baby fetuse's are aborted each year. Also, two thirds of the world lives in impoverishment and a child dies every 3 seconds. Shouldn't we, as messengers of gods love be trying to help babies who are already born in a peaceful way, not by blowing up and shooting abortionists? Also by shooting up the abortionists it only postpones the abortion.

To me it seems a blatant waste of time to be advocating violent a pro-life agenda with murder and hate, when so much other non-violent aid can be offered in third world countries.

I'm not trying to belittle you Rev, I'm just trying to shed light on this issues. I don't take a stance on abortion, simply because I don't think its needed. Theres so much evil in the world, and abortion is such a difficult issue. A pro-life advocate and an pro-choice advocate can be united in thier quest to end poverty, can they not?

This post was far from the topic of the blog, but oh well...

Re: Zac Moon, Nevada Dessert Experience and Quakerism

Tue, 07 Jun 2005 17:30:00 -0000

Hmm... it is interesting how you interpreted your experience. I really appreciate you and Emily’s passion to see social change. It’s beautiful and needful among Christians as well as the world.

I am confused by the last paragraph and the last reason your friend gave you regarding the lack of Quaker involvement in political protests. I'm not a Quaker and know just a little so perhaps my confusion stems from my misunderstandings there.

What I don’t understand is that sounds like your saying that lack of political involvement among Quakers is the result of a lack of being obedient to our call as Christians (taking up our cross). I interpret the words of Jesus to take up our cross, to die to ourselves, to sacrifice our lives, no matter the cost of friends, family, etc to be connected to Christ’s commanded to go and make disciples, to share the gospel. This is our primary responsibility as Christian’s. His words about persecution and sacrifice no matter the cost of friends of family were to encourage people when they were persecuted for their faith that they were doing the right thing. Basically, God wants us to be followers of Him and to share Him no matter the cost.

Regarding the government and political activism, the Bible tells us to pray for those in authority over us and for government/political issues. There is a verse in the bible that speaks of the governments of this world being in the palm of God's hand. He moves the heart of the king like water. Other verses speak of the real rulers of governments of this world being in actuality demons (principalities and powers). Regarding involvement with the government, the Bible tells us to live in submission and obedience (romans 13:17).

Obviously there is a line the government crosses when you don’t have to submit (i.e. when it uses its power to inhibit your relationship with God, to take your life, or the lives of people around you). At these points we don’t have to obey them. Additionally since we are in a country where we have the freedom to express our opinions and protest things we disagree with we have the right to do this through ralleys, etc. Plus God has given us minds, free will and free time so I think it’s awesome to invest our time in these things (even more importantly to pray in order to bring about these changes). Therefore, I think as socially responsible people who love mankind it is a great ideal to put efforts into preserving the physical lives of people.

However it’s dangerous to relate political activism to Christ’s command to take up our cross, or to relate persecution for political activism to Christ’s warning us that we will be persecuted for our faith. What I feel He is calling us to is to be pouring our energy into saving souls, rather than into political differences (even if its for a righteous cause). An hour at a protest rally verses an hour street evangelizing, or praying. Which do I feel God has actually "called" me to do.

Further, regarding what you said about people loving their lives and therefore being afraid of activism because of the persecution they would receive. I don’t think it would be a good think to be "imprisoned, hated, threatened, debated, etc" for efforts to stop nuclear weapons or war. At this point people will confuse your mission and purpose with that of political activism. This draws attention to the cause and not to Christ. This will stop some from hearing the gospel in your lives and in your words.

I also think that I think (well I’m not really sure, I’d like to hear your opinon) that God promises the government will persecute people who resist them. Rather than commanding or encouraging this though, God tells us to submit to their will rather than experience their wrath (romans 13:2), unless, of course it’s for spiritual reasons.

I consider the people in other countries who are actually suffering in prison and under real persecution for the crime of believing and practicing their faith. This I think is what the verse meant.

Also, I think that’s a real struggle ministries and people deal with. Many people have gotten distracted helping people physically from helping people spiritually (i.e. Salvation Army, YMCA, etc).

Finally, I think so few people get involved in rallies and protests because of fear or apathy. These aren’t necessarily good reasons to not do something. But I don’t think it is a spiritual issue as much as a personal choice.

I know that you feel sharing the gospel is the most important thing, so I don’t want to make it sound like I’m ignorant of how passionate you are about that; I just thought what you wrote was confusing. So that is my response. I’d love to hear what you think in response to my response… erg… response.

Christ, if there's anything that could give me a modicum of sympathy for Sarah Palin, it's crap like this. Women in the public eye are subject to relentless scrutiny about their looks. Please, let's not add to it.

Are her little vanities an easy target? Yeah, sure they are. But seriously, who gives a flying fuck? Sarah Palin is a monumentally unserious person who is unfit to hold office on the basis of her policies, her character, her ethical shortcomings, her mental instability, and her utter lack of knowledge or interest in the world around her. Really, I think that's enough.

Look, I know this post was put up in fun. But, I"m sure Bush's remarks about Hillary Clinton's "fat kiester" were just in fun, too.

Yeah, "hiding your secret" is peculiar wording and could be read two ways: simply as an iteration of the "conspiracy nuts" beliefs, or more interestingly, as a tacit admission that Sarah has a secret that needs keeping.

And it seems pretty obvious that no matter what the reading, the subject was creating friction in the newsroom.

I could deal with the "T", even though I think the "M" for metro would be more universal, but the fact that it is green is just stupid. They have a green line trolly and this sign will be a places that the green line does not go. People looking at a transit map will get confused. A square white sign with a large "M" and the word "METRO" would be the most clear.

Moviemaniac226 - I do not believe in the Four Horsemen theory. But in my write-ups I try to cover ALL theories that are on the message boards that I've heard of, so that people can judge for themselves. I thought it was kind of cool, but don't read too much into all the religious symbolism. I do think they're going to bring bad things upon our Lostaways, though.

Save_the_hobbit - I didn't want to come right out and say that I have a crush on Daniel, if for no other reason than I didn't want my husband to get jealous. But he'll never read these comments, so now I can proclaim it safely - I AM IN LOVE WITH DANIEL. That feels good to get off my chest. And I'm glad you noticed the captions... I go to great pains to come up with them. : )

Cogito - Shush! Don't even put the thought of killing off Daniel out there into the universe!

Tierney - Good catch... I'm surprised no one else jumped on that (that I've seen so far). My brain cells really ARE dead, I can't summon the energy to think about a connection between the planes. So I hope there's not--for I would surely lose my mind.

theloneassassin - Your username freaks me out. I will try to stay on your good side, damn! Anyway, the only difference, though, is that Miles was talking to the ghost to find money, whereas I think in the newspaper clip, we were meant to assume that whoever hung himself might have actually been murdered. But I'm not sure. Also, thanks for that link. I think I'm officially giving up on trying to guess who Jacob is!

Andrea - Ding ding ding! We have a winner. I think that is exactly what is going on with Charlotte.

Nick and Katieb20022001 - Thanks for your nice words. I strive to be the lazy Lost fan's best friend!

John Pritzlaff - And I therefore think that your comment is the best!

Radzinsky - You can certainly just call me "e"... it's much faster to type, if nothing else. Daniel remains my fave new guy, but Frank is #2. Ben got the gun from Karl not too long before he shot Charlotte. There were a few quick shots of Ben eyeing the gun, and I had initially thought that it was Locke's gun. I was thinking, "Oh, crap, this is going to be REALLY embarrassing if he steals Locke's gun and shoots him again." I'm glad that didn't happen. Karl is a few fries short of a Happy Meal, as the saying goes, so he no chance against Ben.

girlfromfl - That is a good catch... it does seem like "all this time" would mean more than 3 months. (Plus, where else would they have lived anyway?). May point to time moving more slowly on the Island...

Tukachen - The white horse is open to interpretation, it seems. But Wikipedia has it as Conquest:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Horsemen_of_the_Apocalypse

theloneassassin - as a conspiracy freak myself, I knew what your screenname meant. Hence the fear.
: )

lolmacy - You are correct... technically Ben came when he was a young boy. But I guess I interpreted what he said to Jack to mean that he has basically stayed ever since he came. Now I'm wondering if this is yet another lie.

dawgfatherjr - I have a hard time believing that Sawyer saw the cabin, just because he doesn't seem to have weird mental issues like the others... but then again, he DID hear the whispers in the jungle when he was trying to kill the boar in that one episode, so who knows. I just figured the writers were trying to thesaurusize so they didn't keep saying "cabin."

sazzieb1234 - I never thought about the possibility of Miles in the cabin... he might implode! Then we would be rid of him, yay.

kia - I didn't watch JJ's other show, Alias, but from what I hear, it was also very complicated. And remember, they've used online games to explain complex mysteries already, like "the numbers." I think that the OVERALL mystery may be very simple, but some of the sub-storylines they can get away being really complicated. They probably only pitched the show at a very high level initially to the ABC executives, and once it became so successful so quickly, the execs trusted them. We shall see!

Mujer esponja - Very good catch about the kilometers!

3d - I have to agree with you that I think the helicopter and freighter are a red herring... the peeps get off the Island some other way.

Sharon - If Charlotte ends up being Ben's "man," that will indeed be an awesome twist. And now if it ends up being Michael, it will be that much more depressing. Ah, what could have been! Regarding the monster eating the "wrong" pilot... very interesting. But I can't help but wonder... several of the other Lostaways weren't originally supposed to be on that flight, but something switched at the last minute and they ended up on 815. Almost like fate wanted them to be on that flight. So if Frank was REALLY supposed to have been on the flight, wouldn't it have worked out that way?

Matuk - Aaaah! I had nightmares over Donnie Darko and now you've made me think of it again--damn you! But I must agree with the comparison, I think that is what is going on with Dan.

Frank803 - They attempted to explain the numbers through the first online game they ran, "The Lost Experience." Yes, they were part of a doomsday equation, but I don't think they ever explained them beyond that (and quite frankly, I think they're hoping we all forget about them!). I totally agree with you that the bigger question is about the skeletons and the stones. These writers are, as Run-DMC would say, tricky, tricky, tricky, and they are trying to keep our mind off of the bigger questions.

Cruse4 - But it's so much more fun to think that the cow represents the coming of the next Messiah! Just kidding... yes, it could've totally been one of Patchy's cows. But it did disappear pretty quickly...

dbl - I will make sure my relatives know that the mental well-being of thousands is at stake if I don't write my posts. This is serious stuff!

James - That is some great stuff! If nothing else, I learned why cell phones don't work in some elevators--they're Faraday cages! Thinking of Daniel in those situations will help immensely in the future when I am about to otherwise be all bitter.

Rob - Naomi definitely landed on the island days before the other four... she was in a different helicopter which crashed (or so she said). As for the others' receivers lighting up at different points... I think it's hard to say because we're not sure exactly when Charlotte's vs. Frank's started working, as those were kind of parallel storylines during the show. It may have just been lazy writing--taking the easy way out to introduce the characters one by one.

f.chiappetta - The security airport line idea is intriguing... but it was back in the 70s (it looks like)... I'm not sure if airports had the same set-up for screening back then?

mdpeterson42 - Good call about Jacob summoning people. He may just may the cabin appear close enough to wherever they are when they are ALONE or specifically searching for him out in the jungle (any anyone searching for him would know to be away from the rest of the group)... he can't have the cabin appear too close to the full-blown camp.

Kia + Frank - I've given up on the pictures... if they do mean something, it's probably small in the overall scheme of things. But the skeletons and stones will definitely end up being a major reveal in the series at some point. I'm convinced the skeletons are Jack and Kate (time loop theory), but I still have no idea about what the stones MEAN. And yes, Frank, you are right, Jack was the last one seen with the stones after taking them from the (his own?) skeleton (which would support the theory that he dies with them and his skeleton is later found with the stones again... by himself. Need... a... beer... NOW!

Crikey - Point taken.

Oodles - I am jealous that you could understand Elsa! Thanks for the insight on what she said and the informality of her tone and words... that IS very interesting... doesn't sound like she's just a personal shopper, does it?

Bonasi - I like your reasoning. Perhaps what we didn't see what Ben finally telling Locke and Sayid the identity of the mole, so Sayid can make contact with this person once he reaches the freighter. The question is, how are they getting info back to Ben/Locke/The Island?
Obviously the mole has figured out some way to communicate since Ben knew about Charlotte (unless, as some suspect, Charlotte is the mole).

Addy_Ellis - I will check out the theory. WE know that Ben was brought to the Island as a young boy, but he told Jack that he'd been on the Island his whole life. I agree with your take on the literary references, they're more fun than they are important. I don't think it's obvious that any of the freighter team are in cahoots... Miles said he had just met Charlotte on the boat, Frank didn't like Miles and didn't care that he had been traded for Charlotte... so it's clear that not ALL of them get along or are working together. Finally, I just found it weird that an anthropologist would want to stay after an attempt was made to kill her... she's obviously more than your run-of-the-mill anthropologist.

Save_the_hobbit - Yeah, I realize (like some other people mentioned above) that Sayid is a spiritual dude and all, but many other people have died on the Island that he didn't go out of his way for, yet he was really worried about Naomi, who he hardly knew. There IS something to this!

Jonathan - Glad you're liking the recaps, thanks!

Locke_Jaw - I don't stray outside of the homepage, but I would assume it's totally fine for you to post that link over in the theories section... others, am I wrong?

Sandi631 - Yay, my effort has not been for naught!

Andrea - I like the idea of Sayid keeping his enemies (Ben) closer... it would make me feel like Sayid isn't just a puppet but perhaps has a plan of his own.

Re: Protected: Best Thing About Being a Woman?

Mon, 29 May 2006 14:10:00 -0000

Ditto - I just love to go panty/bra set shopping.

Lets see, other things I love about being a woman...

1. You might think this is old fashioned, but I just love it when a man opens a door for me.

2. I can indulge in chocolate any time I want.

3. I can seriously do some shoe shopping as well.

4. I love the fact that I have curves. Especially the curve from my waist to hip...

5. I don't have to feel defensive since I HAVE NO SENSE of direction. I think if I was a guy this would kick me out of the men's club... LOL

3. Ok, so say you apply for the Chi town job. they offer it to you ... you don't HAVE to take it.

I'm in a similiar situation - sort of - I've got experince out the wazoo but just recently finished my degree so I'm "new" at being "certified".... when I was offered the job I have now, my (now) former employer made a counter offer - but they did not meet my requirements so I left.

To me them dissing my requirements (and then offering them to my replacement I found out later) was a clear sign that I needed to leave.

Maybe as mamachristy says you are being called to a different direction... life doesn't always go as we planned.. (LOL God I sound so cliche')

so.. long story short - investigate further the CHI possibilities - maybe they have a satelite office or some connections in NYC that you can link up to.

and..as all your faithful readers ... I'll read from where ever you are blogging.

Re: Should Men Wear Thongs?

I have a "somewhat" related story on this... and may post it on my blog with a link here...

last but not least - I think that you have to find the right kind of undergarment that fits your body type. I have found thongs that I LOVE wearing, lace panties that I love wearing but sometimes you get a lemmon - those that are not built right for what ever reason and then it's just a waste of money.

Good hands are those that are in porportion - finger lenght etc fits the rest of the hands and nails that are trimmed and well maintained. It drive me nuts nuts nuts to see a guy with fingernails longer than his fingers - even just a little bit....

Re: What’s Your September 11 Story?

Tue, 12 Sep 2006 01:51:00 -0000

I was finishing up a paper for my finance class - due by 2 pm. I was having difficulty finding the right phrase for my paper, so I called a classmate for help. She was already on campus and said "Did you know the WTC is on fire? I told her no, that I didn't ( I did not have the radio or TV on -- trying to concentrate on my paper). She helped me figure out the phrase -- I finished up and left for campus.

On the drive in all the news started pouring in over the radio..pouring in and pouring in. I started crying in the car. The commute to school was only 12 miles, but that was the longest in my entire life.

I was scared for my sister, who was living in a large city and worked in a tall building downtown. I could not get thru to her - later I found out they were keeping watch and trying to figure out if they should evacuate --

I went to class (paper in hand) but our professor was focussed on our emotional state - we spent the 90 minutes talking about what was happening and how we felt.

Like most of the world I don't think I'll ever forget what I was doing on that day.

God Bless you Dr. C. (my finance professor)

I wonder how hard is is for them on the anniversary date.... mmm they get a big hug tomorrow!

They're located right off of Rt. 101 (actually there's a tunnel that connects the two underneath 101) and they have some beautiful trails for running and biking. I don't know if there's trail maps of the area but it's worth a look if your in the mood for a new spot.

And of course it can't be locusts, because locusts have six legs.

frogs.
people of the straights=mitzri'im.
Don't know about the leg thing, but frogs are born in the water. Or maybe it was the locusts who were blown in from the yam suf.

They once had a computer translate from English into Russian, "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."

it came out, "the vodka is good, but the meat is spoiled."

Eh, mottel, what about the fact that the Torah was black on white, not white on black?

Also, you mix up the sefer Torah and the luchos. but whatever.

the torah was written as black fire on white fire. The letters on the luchos were readable from the front and the back. The Torah goes from above to below (see Tanya). And it says somewhere that the torah is not mekabel tuma'a.

And of course, feivish hershel and 42.

Let me get this straight. Because the communists claimed to support equality and feminism, and because the Democrats are like communists, therefore the Democrat's ideals of feminism and equality truthfully died in the Soviet gulags?

Which day did you do the architecture cruise? I did it 1130 on Saturday. Skipped out... err, made the executive decision to leave the conference for a bit and explore the city on my own. I was the only person downstairs on the boat, but I was able to walk side to side, front to back of the ship to see everything.

I stayed at the Fairmont, which was around the corner from the Hyatt. It was great, except for the lack of wifi (it was there, but a piss poor signal).

Overall, I enjoyed the conference. Felt like I learned quite a bit.

Re: http://thehappyhospitalist.blogspot.com/2009/04/bilateral-temporal-arteritis.html

Sat, 04 Apr 2009 10:18:00 -0000

nice pick up.

the sed rate is consistent with the diagnosis, as a "normal" sed rate for her would be roughly half of her age (39.5) plus 10 (39.5 + 10 = 49.5). so, while the sed rate is not above one hundred, it is above the expected "norm".

anon 1036, temporal arteritis is something you jump on immediately. it's not a disease to suspect, and send the patient home to have them come back, and then send them over to the er. truthfully, if its suspected in an outpatient office, the patient should be sent for a direct admission. if that's not available, then a call should be placed to the ed physician and/or hospitalist. time is of the essence.

Re: http://thehappyhospitalist.blogspot.com/2009/03/what-happened-to-nursing-profession.html

Wed, 25 Mar 2009 12:49:00 -0000

as you said happy, some nurses hide behind the "i have to call."

if you have to call, but know it's not critical, why not preface what you have to say by "i'm sorry to call you at this time, and i know it's not critical, but hospital policy dictates *insert lab value*"? or something like that.

i've had some nurses say something like that. that gives me a clue that, hey, things are ok with this patient, as the nurse gets it.

it's when you get a 4 am call about a creatinine of 5 in your patient who is on dialysis, when you get worried. because one starts to think that if the nurse doesn't understand that lab value for the patient, what else does he/she not get about my patient?!

again, if you know the value is abnormal and not a big deal, but HAVE to call, then just let me know that. it's those that don't know that cause this inconvenience.

a hospitalist can see a patient with low risk chest pain, get a non invasive stress test done, read, and patient discharged in the same day.

non hospitalist docs may have the patient admitted, over the phone from the ed doc. see the patient later that day. order the non invasive stress test for the following day. get the result the next day, and discharge the patient.

there's value to being there, being in the hospital, knowing the nursing staff, knowing the ins/outs of the radiology department, knowing the subspecialists and surgeons, etc.

physasst, all 3 scenarios were presented to me by ed attendings... when i was a resident.

admitted as mi. lower gi bleed. community acquired pna.

no call to anyone but me. not sure if that reflects well on me, or poorly on the ed attending... or a little of both.

admits for temp of 104. forgot to look at the line sticking out of the chest. the osteo of the foot since the shoes weren't removed. that's the point. it's not always the urine or the blood or the pneumonia.

it's not always a straightforward mi. it's not always a straightforward gi bleed.

you find what you look for, you look for what you know.

if you don't look for it, you won't find it.

if you don't know it...

Sat, 24 Jan 2009 22:03:00 -0000

you'd put up your assessment skills?

what about the knowledge base?

what about getting the job done? it's not always about assessment.

as said earlier, it's not all about algorithms and protocols. you have to know when to use them, and know when not to.

if someone's having a stemi... but an acute upper gi bleed, do you give the aspirin? do you give the heparin? integrillin? do you drop in a blakemore tube? do you go immediately to cath 1st? do you go to the gi lab 1st? do you give blood? do you give a proton pump inhibitor drip? do you give the beta blocker? do you give an octreotide drip?

that's not an everyday occurence, i'll give you that. but you need to be prepared for it. saw plenty of it in my internal medicine residency, preparing to be a hospitalist.

if someone's got a gross lower gi bleed, blood just pouring out... do you call the surgeon asap? do you give ffp? platelets? vitamin k? is the patient dnr? is the family around? do you handle the pressure? or do you just call to admit?

i've had er attendings literally just call me to admit. me taking care of everything... as a resident.

if you're admitting someone with pneumonia... but they're septic... but they have a penicillin allergy... and they're from a nursing home... what does the protocol sheet say? is there a protocol for that situation? should there be a protocol for that situation?

don't get me wrong. pa's have their place in healthcare. they have their role in the ed. but as has been said before, they also don't know what they don't know.

it's easy to say, i didn't know, so i asked my supervisor. anything you don't know, can be asked or referred out.

it's a whole different ballgame, sometimes difficult, to be the one who questions are asked of, or referrals are sent to.

you said a few weeks ago, sudden and rapid weight loss has a small differential. that small differential with his prior history of cancer... the answer seems like it is right in front of us.

unless of course its diabetes as a result of pancreatic resection.

uptodate is a fine point of reference.

Re: http://thehappyhospitalist.blogspot.com/2008/12/what-hospitalists-have-done-to.html

Wed, 03 Dec 2008 14:40:00 -0000

erp, you may be missing the point. when a specialist is needed, a specialist is called. a st elevation mi comes in, it might behoove a hospitalist to call a cardiologist regarding a heart cath (i'd argue that the er/ed doc should have picked that up, but that's another argument).

what you see out there is a lot of waste. and that's what happy is referring to. there are docs who will refer every little thing to a specialist.

come in with pneumonia and tachycardia. some internists will consult pulmonary (pneumonia) and cardiology (tachycardia).

maybe that same patient is a little dehydrated, and the creatinine is 1.2. now a renal consult is obtained.

more cooks in the kitchen to stir a pot that only needs 1 cook to synthesize it down in the 1st place. i.e. think. the person has an infection (pneumonia) leading to insensible losses (sweat), resulting in tachycardia and dehydration. give the patient antibiotics and fluids, and everything should be fine.

as happy said, it could require a specialist, if he/we were idiots or lazy. unfortunately, there's a little of both out there.

some specialists love these sorts of consults, because there's nothing to really do (pulmonary says continue the antibiotics, cards says to continue antibiotics and fluids), nothing to really manage, but they get paid for it.

again, a specialist is called when needed. however, a specialist is not always needed. the difference is knowing when you need a specialist and when you don't.

i don't really think its incompetence (at least not on a grand scale), i think its fear of talking about end of life.

i believe there's a survey that something like 80% of patients think their physician should bring up end of life issues... and roughly the same percentage of physicians think the patient should bring up end of life issues. clearly, that just leads to both sides not talking about it!

Tue, 02 Dec 2008 11:55:00 -0000

frank, i don't think we're talking about euthanasia, which is the active participation of ending a patient's life (though i don't disagree with it in the right circumstances). what we seem to be talking about is providing futile care.

as physicians, we are not obligated to provide futile care to anyone. it goes against the hippocratic oath (provided you actually believe it). with that said, the argument becomes what exactly is futile, and how do you know when you're there.

perhaps its like pornography... hard to describe, but you know it when you see it.

what would seem to be easy to see is that providing a tracheostomy for this patient (or similar patients) does nothing to achieve a good outcome. we're not making a difference in the patient's life... i.e. the tracheostomy isn't some sort of bridge to the rehab center where the patient can improve his/her lung function and eventually get off the trach/vent and get back to normalcy.

rather, this is just prolonging the inevitable... which is this patient dying in the hospital.

perhaps when we as a society say that we can't provide all the care all the time to everyone (because our financial resources are not limitless), and realize there are limits, then perhaps we can better address situations like this.

until then, there will unfortunately be a lot more patients like this.

dino, i'm a hospitalist in sin city (probably need to start a blog myself, lol). my group is not subsidized by the hospital. we staff 24/7. when a large group of hospitals were asked why they don't develop their own hospitalists groups, they stated that my group was cheaper.

whether or not that "means" anything, i haven't the slightest idea at this point in time.

as happy pointed out, if someone's willing to pay for it, then it's worth it. at least at that point in time.

in regards to the thought about the model imploding... that may very well be true, but for different reasons. the entire system is at risk. not the hospitalist model. as has been pointed out in this blog many times before, the day is coming.

right care, right now. a hospitalist can respond in ways that no one else can. as part of that efficiency, if the outpatient doc has to wait for his/her rounds after clinic... to then get the specialist... who doesn't see the immediate results of the ct scan... to then wait a full 24 hours later for the outpatient doc to reappear... everyone loses. the patient languishes, the hospital's keeping a patient that can be moved (perhaps needs higher level of care, or lower level of care depending on that ct scan result), and physicians still aren't seeing each other face to face! that face to face time, speaking directly to another physician is so overlooked these days. while i don't think a cost analysis can be done on physician face to face time, there are plenty of cases where we docs need to talk to each other. sometimes reading another docs words (provided the note is legible!) isn't as good as speaking to one another in person.

i've probably digressed by now, but i think happy's spot on.

anonymous 932, i think you miss the point. i come from a different political perspective from happy, and i still feel the same as a physician regarding patients who are abusing the system.

i had a patient 3-4 weeks ago who was discharged with prescriptions for antibiotics (2 days worth, as she had been in the hospital for 3 days) and diuretics... she filled neither, returned to the emergency department. when i saw her and asked what happened, if she filled the meds; her response was "are you going to pay for it?" i said no. she told me i was arrogant and wanted another doctor!

its fine for her to have her own opinion, its fine for another doctor to take care of her... but when patients are taken care of at no cost to them, don't go and get the meds, and come back... you and i paid for the 1st visit and we're paying for the 2nd. because she and her family couldn't come up with any money.

but she never even went to see how much the medications cost. and when referred to social work and financial counselors, she wouldn't fill out the papers.

at some point, enough is enough.

back to the point of the post though, happy, i'm glad to know you don't have a mullet!

sadly, this sort of thing happens all over. as a resident, i actually asked an ed attending "if we went to a club right now, would we admit everyone who's drunk?"

give me something else to "hang my hat on" besides the fact that he's drunk. pancreatitis. mi. hell, a suicide attempt.

it seems that many times, these clearly social issues get placed in our laps. at some point, we've gotta wake up and do something different than what we continue to do.

i think some people (those outside of medicine) don't necessarily realize the amount of hard work that one has to put in. does it require smarts. sure it does. but there is a ton of hard work behind the scenes... that the public may not ever see... nor understand... and perhaps not even appreciate.

i think big pharma looked at their bottomline, and saw that the money spent "courting" doctors with pens, paper, etc. had a negligible effect on doctors' prescribing habits. recognizing that, they decided to stop... under the guise of "conflict of interest". win-win situation, they save their bottomline, and win the public relations side as well.

with that said, i agree with your overall sentiment.

lots of things in regards to the "team" need to be reworked, including taking breaks regardless of how a patient is doing, beginning of shift issues, end of shift issues, not going to do it because of the way you talked to me even though its the right thing to do, etc.

it bothers me that they're only looking at how to incorporate the doctor onto the team, rather than have the other "team members" find better ways to be team players.

everyone on the team needs to play nice and realize that its a team... but at the end of the day, someone has to be captain of the ship.

anonymous@11am, depending on the setup of the urgent care, you may or may not have records. you can have decent labs and decent follow up. after all, you can ask the patient to come back, regardless of the system that you're in! and having unlicensed and untrained staff in any setting is a negative of course.

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 10:50:00 -0000

happy, great post. i think there is often a disconnect between patient's perception of what may be happening to them healthwise, and being happy with a service.

getting to the "bottom of it" should be the goal... figure out why the legs are swelling and your short of breath... why you have fever and cough... why you have chest pain when walking up a flight of stairs etc. from what i've seen so far, there are many patients (not all) would rather have a handshake and a smile, regardless of what's actually done to/for them... people want to feel like they're getting a ton of stuff, whether or not it actually makes a difference in the outcome is irrelevant to them.

and to me, that in many ways is the crux of the matter. the patient (and oftentimes the family of the patient) want to see a whole bunch of things going on- x rays, labs, cts, specialists... so they feel like they're getting the special treatment, regardless of whether or not it makes a difference.

there are some doctors who will cave to the pressure, order all sorts of tests and consults just to appease the patient (and family), without an expectation in changing management of the patient. however, it seems as though docs like you and i see it a bit differently. if it's appropriate to order a certain test, or getting a particular specialist involved will make a difference in management, that's all well and good. but if it's not going to make a difference, there's no point in ordering the test or getting that specialist. but alas, many patients (and families) don't want to hear that, and don't care. because as you said, they want that 3 am lobster delivered not now, but right now.

i think asking for a prescription for yourself is different, and if the request is reasonable should not be a problem.

as far as your situation goes, i'm not sure why he doesn't write the prescription himself, ask one of his partners, ask a partner of the doc who is out of town... starts to make me think that perhaps something shady is going on.

from what my attendings told me last year, i think most physicians expected a much larger check than was passed out/given out/earned.

i'm interested to know if the purported penalty would be equal to the pay out. i.e. physicians who keep up with this game get, on average, $600... so physicians who don't keep up with this game get, on average, $600 taken away from them.

my next thought would be does this initiative just assume that most physicians won't want to do all of this extra paperwork, and therefore everyone will get dinged, thereby saving the system money by virtue of not actually doing anything. in other words, from what you wrote, the cost of you filling out that paperwork may not be worth the benefit.

the truth may not be what the public wants to hear, but its what the public needs.

seems like a lot of negativity from the other commenters lately.

if you truly believe we should be paying for patients to watch tv while they receive dialysis, why not just one tv for everyone? an individual tv for every dialysis patient?

the medical care that is needed is the dialysis itself. the ability to watch tv is a bonus.

and if we're routinely overpaying for the walkers, i can only imagine what we're (over)paying for the flat screen lcd tv's!

hmmm... not sure what to think. its great for patients. and its great for residents who want to do outpatient medicine when they're finished with residency. but it doesn't sound so great for residents who don't see themselves doing clinic when they're finished.

which is why at least some programs have a primary track, and a traditional track. at least so i thought.

i'd like to see the actual study, because aiming for patient satisfaction and resident physician satisfaction is all well and good... but may not be a meaningful endpoint in terms of patient outcomes.

the article also says delivered a higher quality of care, but that can be so hard to quantify/stratify/grasp.

Re: http://thehappyhospitalist.blogspot.com/2008/07/jac-off-watch.html

Sat, 12 Jul 2008 00:17:00 -0000

interesting. i just finished residency, and am now an attending (well, i start next month).

my residency was in la, and our hospital was quite aware of the dumping incidents, as they were literally down the street. one part of what was missed by the news, is that where these patients were "dumped" happens to be where a large concentration of homeless shelters are... as well as some outpatient psych facilities. i don't think any of them were well funded though.

before those dumping incidents, patients could choose to be dropped off at "the corner of good luck road and see ya next time boulevard".

after those dumping incidents, patients had to go to a physical address.

going to a homeless shelter had to be a choice made by the patient. patients could even refuse when the taxi brought them to the shelter... of course the patient was brought right back to the hospital!

sadly, it seems like a lose-lose situation for everyone involved except for the patient... you lose out on that time that you could use for other patients (or anything else you choose to use your time for), the nurses aren't providing much care, and tax payers are paying for his stay (though i suppose the counter argument would be that if he was discharged to the street and came back through the er, he'd cost more that way, so it's cheaper to keep him).

i'm curious to find out what happens in the end. keep us posted!

Fri, 11 Jul 2008 23:53:00 -0000

happy, so what's the end game/solution for this patient/this kind of patient? homeless shelter? another nursing home facility?

if he has no current medical issues, can you not simply state that in the chart, and let the "powers that be" figure out where he needs to go? i ask because i've been told by attendings that once the medical issues are ironed out, the patient is "medically discharged", that it is the hospital's job to figure out placement after that.

Great post. As a resident, I've often had the same thoughts/questions. There are a few attendings that will engage me in such talks, and others who it would seem think that I'm coming from out of left field.

I think that we, as medical professionals, really do need to answer (or attempt to) these questions, for the benefit for our patients and society at large.

I can remember quite a few instances where we as a team just figured that the family and patient would want anything and everything done, and that end is pursued. Only until the proverbial $%*& hits the fan, and we ask, does the family or patient say they wouldn't want a lot of these things done!

All in all, I think your questions are completely appropriate, and hope that we'll start to try and answer them.

Re: http://thehappyhospitalist.blogspot.com/2008/06/details-on-dumb-down.html

Sun, 15 Jun 2008 14:18:00 -0000

anon340: My wife is a nurse. I have high respect for nurses. So you have me all wrong. My reference to the dumb down was the implication in my blog post that doctor nurses can practice medicine independently with the same competency as medical physicians in a 1000 hour residency as compared to a 12 thousand hour medical residency. The comparison to garbage men is just that. A garbage man could read about diabetes for a week and recommend metformin. So could a banker. So could a cashier. So could lay man off the street. That doesn't make them doctors. going to NP school or DNP school for a year doesn't make you a doctor either. Only doctors are doctors. And practicing medicine independently requires complete comprehensive capabilities. Not superficial bits and pieces to handle the easy stuff. Easy stuff becomes hard stuff every single day. I see it all the time.

How you can believe a 1000 hour residency is the equivalent in education and experience to practice medicine is beyond me. It's the same as me reading about bridge construction and calling myself construction engineer. It's the same as me reading about nursing and calling myself a nurse.

A lay person can treat an ear infection at home. Hell, you don't even need a health care provider. I don't assume by using the ear ache analogy, you are implying that those skills are equivalent to a lay person.

Managing blood pressure is a completely different class. Despite your opinion on the matter, it does take physician level skill to understand all the drug classes, interactions, complications, side effects, first line and last line drugs for all the different co morbid conditions from DM to CKD to CHF to pheochromocytoma to proteinuria renal artery stenosis to hypothyroidism to afib to LVH to mitral regurgitaion to cushing's disease to all the complications that come with hyptertentions from stroke, CAD, CHF, blindness, PAD, retinopathy, carotid stenosis, diastolic dyspfunction, to all the complications that come from drug managment such as ARF, depression, bradycardia, edema, CHF, lupus syndrome, stoke, arrythymias, cough, electrolyte disturbances. It is not simply high blood pressure? Let's start X. That is so far from the truth. That's why blood pressure meds aren't over the counter. I've read hundreds and hundreds of articles on blood pressure management. There are many fine details to evaluation and management. It is not an easy task and certainly not something I would want anyone other than an MD treating me for. That includes NPs and DNP's. Why? Because I know what I know required 12000 hours and more of post medical school training. And because I what I know, I know that what I know is impossible to learn in nursing tract programs whether that be NP or DNP. So no, it's not simply managing the easy stuff. Because easy stuff becomes hard stuff every day. Patients fail to present themselves with isolated diseases. They present with clusters of diseases that require 12,000 hours to understand.

Independent medical practice requires medical school and residency level training. The last time an independent NP sent me a patient they told me they have "fluidity in the lungs" and where in heart failure. When in fact they were so clearly septic it would take a blind man (NP) not to see it.

If you are offended that I don't believe you are qualified to practice independently, to bad, I know what you don't know because of your training. If you are offended that you aren't as knowledgeable as primary care docs, may I suggest you go to medical school and complete a residency.

For the same reason I wouldn't expect myself to be educationally capable of being a nurse, I wouldn't expect a NP to believe they were capable of practicing medicine independently. Unfortunately, they do.

well said!

at the end of my residency, i definitely see there were things that i thought i knew in my intern year, that i clearly did not have a great grasp on. but it took the experience of residency for me to see that.

i shudder to think of what some of these dnp's think they know, think they are capable of... but really aren't.

nursing school is just that, it's nursing school. where, nursing is learned. to try and turn that on its head, and profess that by going to nursing school you learned medicine, enough to be able to practice it is a very bold statement. being around it, picking up a few articles here and there, doesn't make it so.

and in case it matters, my girlfriend is an rn, and my mom is an rn with an msn.

Great post, very brave. I hope all your facts are checked and rechecked (anonymous above disagrees with you on a few) but when it comes to making health choices for your family, it's about whats right for you anyways.
I already HAD swine flu/H1N1, it was the worst "flu" I've had in my 20 odd years of life, however, I was just couch-ridden for a few days, with aches, fever, chills, and a little vomiting. There is no way I would take a questionable vaccine to avoid a 2 or 3 day stint watching daytime TV. Perhaps that will put some fears to rest.

Re: http://4littlemen.blogspot.com/2009/04/lets-talk-about-homeschooling.html

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 11:31:00 -0000

I have to shake my head about what some people have said about my comments about homeschoolers, in regards to my experience working with hundreds of children from both schooling systems.
"I have to comment on something others have written. About homeschooled children being rude and anti-social. Well, that can also be said of public schooled kids."
Well, when you work with 200 kids a year, you definetely start to see a TREND. One family with rude kids doesn't mean that public schooling doesn't create more social, cooperative, polite kids. Trust me, 9 times out of ten, it does!
This was another interesting one:
"I would also let you know that people who say that homeschoolers are unsocialized (one poster above even says 100% of homeschoolers - how silly). A large study that followed homeschoolers. public schoolers and private schoolers found that hs'ed kids consistently interacted with a a wider range of people. So, if you'd like your child to be socialized to only value their peers' opinions, ps might be the way to go. If you want them to be prepared for the real world, where they will encounter all different people (rich, poor, old, young, black, white, etc) - hs'ing is a great option."

Regardless of this "large study" (by the way, I have written a few university psychology papers on the topic of HS vs PS, so I am no stranger to these studies) I stand by the fact that children in public school were socialized above and beyond those who were homeschooled. Of COURSE the public schooled children had some among them who were less than ideal to work with. But what I found that consistently the homeschooled children did not know how to interact with the other kids as well, weren't as good at taking direction, in my experience (I can only speak to that) each and every one that I have worked with over the last few years has in some way fallen short in the social skill/graces aspect.
Why wouldn't you want your child to be socialize to value the opinions of others? How is that a bad thing? If they are ever going to be employed in an office or faculty setting (among others) they will have to learn to do so! And to respect their boss (aka teacher). To me, THAT is "real world" training. And how exactly is being HOMEschool going to expose them to "rich, poor, old, young, black, white" people any more than public school will? (You know, where kids join hundreds of other kids daily...)
The reality is, it's up to you! I was just putting my experience with homeschooled kids, and letting you see why I formed the opinion I have.
" find it interesting that the parents who have commented have mostly said, "My kids are amazing, above grade level, well adapted, blah, blah, blah ..." And the OUTSIDERS who actually have to DEAL with these same children have mostly written to say, "These children are terrible, anti-social, wild, etc.""
I think anonymous hit the nail on the head with that one.
We all think our kids of perfect. And coming from someone who works with hundreds of your perfect children, take it from me that Public school offers a level of socialisation that homeschool can't imitate.
Of course, Brittany, do whatever you want! They're your kids, your family. That's just my 2 (or 3) cents.

Re: http://4littlemen.blogspot.com/2009/04/lets-talk-about-homeschooling.html

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 02:46:00 -0000

Ok, please don't take any of this the wrong way.
For the last two years I have worked with children all day, every day, at a museum, where I run programs for kids (crafts, baking, etc). Teachers from public school as well as homeschooling groups come in.
I can say without a doubt that the homeschooled children are the argumentative, rude, maladjusted, antisocial, bratty ones. I work with at least 200 different kids a year. Before I did this job, I thought that maybe I would homeschool MY kids one day. Now, I would never ever ever ever ever do that. EVER. In my experience the homeschooled children tend to think that they are the centre of the universe because the focus is solely on them at at home when they are being taught. The publicly schooled children consistently have betters manners, make friends more easily, and show me as an instructor, a great deal of respect. The homeschool kids can't cooperate! It's TRULY SHOCKING but I couldn't make it up if I tried. I LOVE kids, and kids love me. In fact I'm in school to do my Montessori teacher training, so yes, I clearly believe in alternate methods than a government-mandated curriculum. I applaud your brave decision to undertake this.
What I can offer though is please, please, please SOCIALIZE your kids. It is no coincidence that the publicly schooled children are 100%, consistently, across the board more social, easy to get along with, willing to take direction --- all those qualities people would like their children to have.
I'm not trying to attack you at ALL. I do understand that with children with special abilities or unique problems that affect their learning, a more one-on-one teaching approach tailored to the child is best.

I feel that I have a unique perspective on this subject and I urge you to either send them to public school or surround them with friends DAILY!!! I remember my public school education (in French Immersion) as amazing. I did team sports, played in bands, did plays and musical- all sorts of things that are difficult to pull off in the homeschooling environment. I learned social graces and about all different types of kids and families first-hand. I LOVED my public school education. Putting your child into a melee of 30-odd other children with just one or two teachers around is such a great tool for them. There are so many social thing that a child can only learn that way.
Thanks for listening! Good luck.
p.s. I swear that out of the 400 kids I have worked with in the last two years....out of the homeschooled bunch, 98% of them are TERRORS! Its NOT a coincidence. Have you considered alternative schools (like Montessori?) who have classroom-styles?

Hi Julie!

I hear you about the pregnancy face woes, although I must say that mine was a bit more than just "here and there." I can honestly say that every The Body Deli product that I used in conjunction with each other worked the best for my skin. However, because I think both of us are battling against the hormones too, we have a problem that no skin care line will completely help.

As always, I can't guarantee that these products will work for you the same way they did for me, but they definitely earn high numbers in my book. The ingredients are pure, effective and refreshing - which is a perfect combo this time of year!

Good luck in your search for your perfect skin care line and have a happy third trimester!

Jo - Congratulations on your Earth Day present! How sweet. :) Yes, pregnancy definitely does a number on your body. At least when we look at our war torn bellies, we can quickly look at our children and know it's all worth it. I know that using oils and creams can't hurt when trying to repair stretch marks. As for the wrinkly belly, I know I will be trying my hardest to start working out as soon as possible after this wee one comes out! I hear it's harder to get any sort of shape back after the first. Good luck to you!

Julie - glad to hear you're already familiar with this brand. I have not tried any of the baby products yet, but from the looks of their ingredient list, they are great products! Yes, you must get yourself some Milk & Oat Bath, stat!

Julie-

Good job shopping maternity sales! There is a huge mark-up on maternity clothes, just because women are so excited to be wearing the clothes that they will spend it. I've been aware of Gap Maternity for a while because they offer tall maternity pants...just so happens their tall isn't quite tall enough for me. Still working on them. That's a whole other post for a whole other blog though. :)

Re: http://figandsage.blogspot.com/2009/03/fab-preggy-find-organic-cotton.html

Sun, 08 Mar 2009 13:24:00 -0000

paper wren - Thanks for sharing the tall love!

It sounds like we are about the same height (I'm 6') and have the same inseam? I used to buy J. Crew jeans, but we hit a turning point when the jeans started going over $100. I still look for sales now and then. Mostly I buy my pants from gap.com, because they make 36" inseam now! Sometimes they are even too long for me, which is a sensation I had never felt before. I must say, I would take that any day over high-waters. :) <BR/>
Alloy.com also has tall (up to 37" inseam) but most of their styles are very teenager-y, which I would feel silly trying to pull off. They have yoga pants that I'm going to order soon, hoping they'll get me through my pregnancy in comfort (and length.)

Of course, the designer jeans come in tall inseams (some to 36") but you'll pay at least $175 for them. I bought a pair of maternity Citizens of Humanity jeans while I was pregnant the last time. It was heaven.

I'll leave you with one major jewel for finding tall pants - searchbyinseam.com. It has sort of changed my life. Hope this helps!

Isn't this discount outrageous?! I love it and I will be placing a little order myself soon. As far as what you should order...Pangea only makes one skin cleanser for all skin types - Egyptian Calendula & Blood Orange (smells delicious.) I have only used the Italian Green Mandarin with Sweet Lime Toner which is for balanced/combo skin. I'm also currently using the Nigerian Ginger, Sweet Lavender & Thyme facial cream. I would recommend any of these, but I'd also recommend just stopping by their website to compare your options. That's probably your best resource for finding out what's best for your skin. I'm sure you'll love whatever you pick. Come back and let us know what you think!

They have an array of other masks that might be more suited to help with breakouts. I've heard great reviews on the Glacial Mineral Mud Masque for blemish prone skin. Check it out! Good luck getting the face under control, I empathize with your situation entirely.

Annie - I have tried Coconut Oil on toast (spreads just like butter, right?) and it's good! I also use a body oil that has a base of almond oil and I use that most days. When you need a little more moisture in the drier months - try some Coconut Oil. It will give you that extra boost of hydration (and make you smell delicious!)

I agree that it is not as comfortable in the Hug Hold once they get bigger. (I use another carrier most of the time now which is more comfortable for bigger babies.) It's cool that you're still using yours with the Hip Hold. I'll have to try that!

Thanks for reading Fig + Sage!

Hej Calle! Du är en av mina favoriter i Idol. Jag vill se dig gå hela vägen till finalen. Du gör alltid bra ifrån dig. Man kan faktiskt se att du utvecklas vecka för vecka. Det är det idol är till för. Go Calle! :)

Du är grym, lätt den mest musikaliska i år!
Du förmedlar ett sånt otroligt lugn och ödmjukhet, som man bara älskar!!
Hoppas du kommer till final, och ta för dig!!
Avslutar med en fråga då, vad för typ av musik vill du hålla på med efter idol?

Hej,

Jag har funderat på en sak som gjort mig sömnlös på nätterna ända sedan jag såg dig på första audition. När du har en röd och en svart sko på dig, brukar du variera och ha svart på höger fot ibland och på vänster fot ibland för att slita lika mycket på skorna (och samma för de röda)?

Fortsätt att vara grym i Idol! Det ger hopp att se att det finns såna som du.

kram

Bra jobbat ikväll Tove. Om du någon gång får fria händer att välja låt, skulle du passa att sjunga den relativt nya låten med Robbie williams - Bodies.
Lycka till i Idol.

TJENARE NICKLAS!
Besvara denna!

Om man vill lägga in en stöt på dig i verkligheten, så måste man ju träffa dig..
Och om man inte har några biljetter till fredags finalerna, och inte känner att det är en bra idè att sitta utanför hotellet och vänta (stalker varning liksom)
Hur ska man bära sig åt?
Är det en bra idê att bjuda ut dig helt random på typ en fika, fråga efter ditt nr eller vad har du för förslag?
Nu har du en jobbig fråga att besvara, mohaha! :)

Re: Goodmorning sunshine!

Sat, 17 Oct 2009 06:48:12 -0000

Ha det bäst <3

-E hon svensk elr utländsk(om hon e utländsk varifrån kommer hon då)
-Hur ser hon ut?
-Vad tycker din famijl om henne?
-Tror du att dt kommmer hålla för evigt?
