Wasn't he tied up when Locke put the medicine on his head? That part we know was real . . . right? Yes. That part was real. I think.

The question is, why would you want to? If the purpose is to understand how someone can be manipulative and unpleasant over money - that would fill the bill. If the aim is sanity - distance is more appropriate lol.

The question is, why would you want to? Why would I want to hang with a stripper? Hmmm...I have a checklist lying around here somewhere...

Oh. My. Gosh. They're gonna need a bigger boat. What the heck was that? A giant bunny? Oh God, that must be the answer. Anya is haunting the island.

There's sides now? Locke thinks there's sides now?
This is never good.

I thought that Pieta-imitation was meant to cast our minds back to Locke's Michelangelo story - he (Michelangelo) was working on the marble, on his plans to shape it into David, for months before he touched it . . . Locke is shaping Boone, without touching him. Or maybe I am tired and crazy, but that is the thought I had. Nooooo, that really really works. Scarily so.

It is so worth rereading, says the girl whose copy is held together with duct tape. Frith dancing on a hillside! Me too! It's been almost as long since I read it, but I've taught the book (in a contemporary lit class): then you have it in memory nearly forever!

Hi Erin! www.soulfulspike.com/membersavatars/smileys/wavey.gif [/img] I'm only sneaking in for a bit because I'm nowhere near caught up on the main board. Bad me! (Although I sincerely hope everyone is well.) I just wanted to cast my vote for Locke = Gen. Woundwort. His compass doesn't point to true north. And he is actively manipulating people. A case could be made that he is doing so for their own good, but he is holding way too much back. Now Hurley, I think he could be Hazel or Fiver. The guy's got insight. Jack can be Thlayli (Big Wig). He would be the one who would go head-to-head with Locke's Woundwort in the end. Unless that would be Kate or Sayid. Yeah. Good book. Linda, oh and, and Hawaii still pretty.

There's sides now? Locke thinks there's sides now? This is never good. I definetely got the impression that Locke is forming his own little group - ala the light and dark stones/game pieces. He had to shape Boone's mind first - I knew she wasn't dead. I wanted her to be dead simply because it would have upped the terror quotient on the show but I felt that Locke could not have got her tied up without her screaming the island down. True he could have knocked her out but it just didn't feel right to me. I loved Hurley last night - you think he was talking about the friends episode where Chandler peed on Monica to Jin? (I saw something on tv). That's my guess! Hee! I also liked the way we got to see a lot of people this episode. I want to know why Sawyer was being dragged through the police station. Great moment - thrown in casually to mess with our minds.
