Juliet: homewrecking cheater pants
Mar. 7th, 2008 11:06 amLOST totally changed it up by giving us...get this...flashBACKS this week. Not sure why it'll turn out to be important than Ben loves Juliet or wants to "Collect" her (as in the famous novel). I certainly do believe that Ben would kill everyone on the island if it suited his purpose. This week was truly one of Ben's creepier weeks, and it's getting more and more difficult to see him, or any of the Others as good guys.
Does anyone have any insights on the book being read this week? Something by Philip K Dick I think. Anyway, I want flash forwards next week, Dammit. And could they make it any more obvious that Michael is Ben's man on the boat? They've dropped so many hints that now it'll be a surprise if it's NOT Michael. And can I just say, I love the Sawyer/Hurley friendship.
Went to work on my day off yesterday for a meeting. Turns out, I won $10 to go out to lunch with in a "Who had the best recorded call" contest. They always record our calls, mostly, but in this case they record them and play them for our workmates to hear. It's usually fairly painful, but I did okay this round and won some cash. Whoo Hoo.
Politics-wise, I'm pulling for Obama. Truth be told though, I think I could live with McCain. And I may have to, because I honestly don't believe our country at large is ready for a minority president. Living in Ann Arbor, I can forget that much of the country still thinks homosexuality is wrong and that white people need to reproduce faster so we don't get "outnumbered" by minorities. My point is that the US is still filled with stupidity and prejudice and NIMBY's* people who just don't pay attention to what's really going on. Obama would make our country a better place, I think. But then I also thought that about Bill Clinton.
Pre-Orders for my book are moving along at a nice clip. My press release looks pretty good, I think. I just need to figure out what else needs to go in my press packet, and how I'm going to get pdf's to reviewers. I'd like midwest book review to review me.
*Not in My Back Yard, or the idea that as long as something doesn't directly affect you or your family, everyone else can go to hell.
