Well Gee, since

roane didn't post about LOST, I guess I will.

Let me first say how bummed I was to see that Hurley was squirrling away food. However, Hurley is very physically active on the island; so they probably do need to have some explanation as to why he hasn't appeared to lost any weight/toned up at all. It appears from the flashbacks that before the island Hurley was not constantly golfing, walking and getting his mac on.

Yes dammit, the military guy was Kate's dad.

I loved how they had Michael Emmerson as The (purported) Balloon Guy. he is dirty as fuck, BTW. Emmerson played the crazy but doomed William Hinks on The Practice and was also delightfully creepy as the red herring in SAW. So if Balloon Man is one of "the others" does that mean no one on the island has gotten sick recently? I suspect that the sickness is the producers holdback for contract negotiations. "Well Naveen, anyone can get a fatal illness at any time, you know?" and the like.

And of course, here's this thing.

Today is my big therapy day for the week. My sleep schedule is all off, as you may have guessed from my posting at 8am. I went to lay down for a few minutes after Daily Show last night (Colbert is in reruns, fie!!) and woke up at 7:30 in the damn morning. So yeah, therapy plus Group and then I have to pound out a new chapter tonight since I really should have done it last night. Only 4 more chapters to go and my draft is done. Problem is, I need to have it done in a week.

I now have to hide my snack basket in a cupboard or something. When I got up today, JoJo had gotten a granola bar out of the basket, opened it up, and ate a bunch of it. Or else I suppose he might have just hidden it, but I doubt it. So I guess we'll have even more JoJo poo than usual this week.

I hate it when sleep schedules get screwed up :(

Dude, I'm on vacation! ;)

Seriously, I think I have a post in me at some point, but I was SERIOULY RIGHTEOUSLY PISSED OFF at the "oh look, the fat guy's been hoarding Ranch dressing" thing. I screamed "You fuckers!" at the television. They redeemed themselves only slightly with Hurley's "I'm fat, fuck you" speech, but only slightly. Very intrigued by the rest of the episode. Is it wrong that I think Scary!Sayid is hothothot?

It's pretty common for me, I've just never learned how to balance it out. I live in mortal peril of being stuck out at some appointment and being too tired to function (which happens with maic-depressives sometimes).

But it's not as bad as it could be, I suppose.

Nope, scary Sayid is indeed hot.

Yeah, I did like how Hurley was all "yeah, I'm fat but people Like me" thing. But I also yelled at the screen when I saw him with the bag of stuff.

That episode ROCKED!! I was so upset for Sayid though. He made a terrible mistake while Torturing Balloon Guy and let him "in". But it made it all the more dramatic. Lockes obsessive dedication to The Button was great too. I actually didn't feel so bad about Hurley for two reasons. First, everyone seems to "Stash" something away to hold on to thier touch with "home".. His just happens to be food. Second, if anyone else on the island was Starving I don't believe he would deny them his "stash". The sad part was how Saywer manipulated him so badly.. Once a Con Man, Always a Con Man I guess.

Thanks for looking up the symbols. I paused my TiVo there for a while. It was cool because it really made me want to look it up. I'm sure they know everyone will be doing it now!

Actually, I did not look up the symbols. I probably should have noted that this pic is from a LOST website. As a matter of fact, I thought it was a combination of runes and heroglyphs until Katie pointed out that they were all heroglyphs.

Sadly...it implies their doom. Unless it's a test. Because let's face it, aside from making the fandom explode and the entire internet shut down for insufficeint bandwidth...all that really happened in the hatch was some pops and whistles.

You have a good point about Hurley. Sawyer is a dick.

I think this was one of the best episodes this season.

This is the first time I've noticed Sayid's hotness.

Sawyer is a rat bastard. Besides being an ass to Hurley, I can't believe he squished that lil frog. I was shocked. For a sec it seemed like he kinda liked the frog, like he might keep him for a pet or something....but then...crunch.

Are you sure that was Kate's Dad? I swear it was a different actor when they showed him previously. I always recognize that dude cuz he was brother justin on Carnivale, and also the voice of Mr. Crabs....and I don't recall him being her Dad...

The guy who pulled out the pic to look at it was looking at Kate.

Also, the frog in question is not a "tree frog" but rather a poison dart frog. This means that Sawyer will likely get very sick, and may even be mistaken for "the sickness" that has been alluded to all season.

oh, THAT military dude. now it makes sense. silly me.

I must say I am disappointed in the way Sawyer's character has gone. I actually liked him before, but now he's just an asshole. It doesn't make sense, since he had all these "nice" streaks, (like trying to protect Walt, for example, and telling Jack about his Dad at the bar). I mean, he wasn't conning anyone back then...it just seems sudden and odd that after getting saved and people seeming to start to think he's OK, NOW he decides to become a REAL bastard? maybe its his whole "wanting to be hated" thing, but it just seems weird to me.

Anyway, if he gets sick, he had it coming. Poor little frog...

I think it was when he articulated his feelings for Kate that Sawyer went downhill. He's an emotional cripple, so rather than risk rejection, he makes himself unloveable on purpose so as not to ever risk knowing if she'll love him back.

I liked how when Jack was getting in Locke's face Locke stayed calm and unthreatening and tried to reason with him.

So... do you think Locke got the code typed in in time...? I took it that he did since the clock reset (right?), but with the hieroglyphs and whatnot appearing, I am not sure what happened.

I don't know how long they can keep it up but I still really like this show.

Hard to say with the counter. It kind of supports the theory that the button is a psychological experiment, since they didn't do it in time and nothing actually happened.

Then again, we don't know for sure if anything did happen.

Frankly, I'm more concerned about Sawyer crushing a poison dart frog with his bare hand.
