One more. Speaking of acting (somebody commented on Sun's) I thought Charley's face when in saw his guitar and then held it was awesome. Isn't anybody dreaming of steak and french fries? well now I am....

oh! that's right! I wondered when I heard that line - you made me remember. So...what did Locke give back to the island do you suppose? no Sue, I didn't see the article ...but that's interesting. I think it was on the Netscape news page..and maybe in that TV Guide article also. I had heard the story before, when the series was first starting up, too. Sorry, guess I should have mentioned it.

what do you mean? You've said stuff before and we thought your reviews were good... Just you all touched on some really good points that I was/am going to be putting in the review. I noticed some other things... I'll toss one out for example: While you all were dreamily watching sayid and sawyer frolic in the surf, hoping htey would rip their shirts off, I noticed how they were like negatives of each other. One in white shirt, one in black. One with fair skin and fair hair and the other with dark skin and hair. And it made me think of Locke's speech. And here, we had BOTH sides working together for a common purpose. Vlad

NO SURPRISE HERE
ABC has picked up Desperate Housewives and Lost — the network's first big hits in 72 years — for a full season. In making the announcement, ABC entertainment president Stephen McPherson said, "Desperate Housewives and Lost each bring something unique to the table." Yes, Stephen, that would be ratings.

I temporarily interupt this posting thread for a public service anouncement. Something wonderous is occuring: The moon is going away. Thank you very much. That is all. Yes, I knew that and that is why I was late getting to the thread. During each commercial break of LOST, I went out and took a pic, then when it was over, I stood outside and let the moon get covered, while I snapped the occasional shot. Pretty nifty. Vlad

Locke told Charley he had to "have faith." And ALSO that he had to give something back to the island. ------------------------ lowbrow thought: What was the deal with the bees? Was it all just a ploy to get their shirts off? Did anybody see the post I put up about the article on Evangeline Lilly (before it was eaten.) This is her first real acting gig. She was preparing to return to the Phillipines as a missionary and got stopped on the street by a guy who wanted her to model. First she turned him down, then decided to check it out to earn the money for the trip. Didn't like it; friends encouraged her to try acting. She went to an open call hoping to be an extra for LOST and J.J. "discovered" her. The newspaper probably romanticized it some but still--dang! Explains the first name too. Missionary family. The bees - well sure, we see Kate's Cs, but maybe it has another higher brow purpose - like paralleling Jin's mad-as-a-hornet reaction to what he might be seeing as Michael's invasive threat to his little world. We get some "setting up hives" feel from what Jack and Sayid are doing. Surely - we are not heading for some kind of Lord of the Flies set up? Surely, our castaways or too old for such foolish boys games? But if Sayid gets a conch shell, and Locke puts a boar's head on a stick, and Hurley ends up breaking his glasses - oh wait. He doesn't have glasses.

Don't know if that is smart or not. I felt two ways about it - on the one hand, I didn't want to forget to hit something that everyone thought was important. On the other hand, I wanted to keep my thoughts fresh and original. That reminds me - it's no one's fault and there is nothing to be done about it, but the timing on VM and Lost is kind of sucky. We barely get talking about VM before we are on to Lost. Or maybe I am underestimating the staying power of interest in VM.

I haven't had a chance to read this thread yet. Good episode. The only time I noticed the color orange tonight was on Michael. Kate's orange shirt was gone.
I accidentally read a while ago that there was going to be a split within the group. Those who have hopes of still getting rescued, and those who don't have hope, or who decide to make the island their home. I guess we saw that tonight.
So I wonder if the water will become an issue?
I had to cry when Charlie got his guitar back. He's going to be feeling the drugs real bad soon. Looks like maybe next week is his week.
I think Sun feels responsible for the fact that Jin gave up so much to marry her. The scene in the airport was heartwrenching. There's so much hurt there.
Her miracle was to be able to stay with her husband away from the influence of her father. They ended up in the jungle, so I suppose that means they've given up hopes of being rescued. I wonder if they'll eventually split tho, because it always seemed to me that Jin still thinks that they'll be rescued.
Any guesses on the meaning of the black and white stone they found with Adam and Eve? It reminds me of what people use to blackball people. You know, when you put all white balls in the bucket, and whoever pulls the one black one is out.
Nice moment between Walt and his father at the end.
Kate is a very lucky woman. I like both Jack and Sawyer and it seems she likes both, too. Do you think if Kate had decided to live in the jungle that Sawyer would have followed her? I do.
It is very like "Survivor". People unfortunately do split into groups naturally. Human nature, I guess.
Back to catch up on your thoughts.
Anyone watching the eclipse? It's way cool. All blood red.

I am thinking that Locke is still working on what he's going to give to the island. For some reason, the word "sacrifice" comes to mind . . . Charlie looks kind of young and tender and sweet . . .
