Hey, have any of you guys seen Libby?

[wednes]

Long time readers of this journal will know that this has always been my favorite beverage. Of course, it pales in comparison to the juice bar lemonade at La Shish, but that is not a mass produced product. My point here, is that there is a mass produced sparkling lemonade every bit as good as my favorite one and it doesn't cost $5 for a single stupid six pack (not counting the deposit). And that beverage is San Pellegrino Limonata. We've been drinking it in cute little 6.5 oz bottles, six of which cost $2.99. Actually, that is pretty expensive, but I don't drink all that much soda anymore.

Moving on, why haven't pedophiles figured out yet that MySpace is being heavily monitored? And why break the law someplace where you leave a virtual paper trail?!? I know there's a lot of hoo ha about online predators these days, but keeping your kid off the internet is not the answer. Like most things, giving them proper information is the best way to keep them from doing stupid shit, online or elsewhere. That said, the guy in this particular article is not really at fault. While I have a tough time picturing a 13 year old girl who looks 18 in person, it's certainly easy to make that mistake online. I really hate how these stories make it look like the website is the problem, and not the people getting up to all these shenanigans.

In cinema news, dang. Not that I thought Poseidon was gonna be great or anything; but wouldn't it have been cool if it was? Even though I can be very snobby about films, sometimes it's a lot of fun to get swept up in Summer Blockbuster Madness.


Okay, first I'll spare you the suspense and tell you that I wept like a little girl. I haven't cried that hard during LOST since Rose and Bernard were reunited. Poor Hurley. How I heart him...

I don't think Locke and Eko were really at the question mark. I think The Pearl is the psychological experiment, designed to test how people perceive others in a given situation. I also agree with Eko that they are being tested; although I don't beleive that the test giver is neccesarily divine in nature. And what's with the Asian guy having a different name and a disappearing reappearing false arm? Does this involve "the accident"? Is one of them the "Bad Twin"? Who the hell knows?

I predict that Libby will be back, perhaps in Hurley's mind not unlike Dave a few eps ago. I can't imagine that she will be gone without some kind of back story...we know she has some mysteries. But as uterdic pointed out, she can't be one of the Others as she was at the airport. Or can she? Ultimately, we don't know if that's actually proof of anything. She might not even be dead, she could certainly have passed out and been mistaken for dead--she was on heroin after all. Not to mention that the back story involved a girl miraculously returning from the dead on an island where life extension projects are taking place. I'm just saying...

I also feel compelled to mention that the tailies are dropping like flies. Only Eko and Bernard are left.

And how come nobody is getting sick?
I'll tell you what I want to see in the finale: A Polar Bear. I also want Desmond to find The Pearl and start kicking some people's asses. I'm sure he's just crazy enough to do it by now.

Smallville season finale was tired and predictable. And what's up with Clark and his feathery windblown 80's hair? Please tell me that crap isn't coming back. I really don't want to start carrying a comb in my back pocket again.

What bothered me most about Smallville wasn't the predictibityof the plot, but all the bad shit that was happening at teh end.

Lana is running off with Zod, who she thinks is Lex.
Cloe is seconds away from being raped and killed.
Lionel is seconds away from being killed.
Martha and Lois are unconsious in a plane being flown by a servant of Zod.
Metropolis fell into complete anarchy after being without power for 1 day.
And Clark is in the phantom zone.

Maybe sometimes not being able to suspend disbelief really isn't the viewer's fault.

Ha! True dat.

Of course, the show has been so crappy all season that without every single character in mortal peril..we have no reason to tune in next season.
