Random Quick Hits!

1.

has replaced Frankie the Fish as my favorite commercial. It gets better every time I see it. Best youtube comment I've seen about it: "I've watched this video about 3,000 times. i laugh each time. i wish it was a full length movie". If it was it would outgross Avatar.

2. This past weekend was awesome. Charlie Engle (the ultra endurance runner who ran across the Sahara) gave a great talk and was much less mean in person then he was in the documentary. Wicked the musical, though different than the book, was excellent. Helene Yorke was great as Glinda and the stage and effects were off the charts. Finally, the weather turned and it wasn't freezing for the Splash and Dash!

3. Douchebag of the week was going to be a toss-up between Carl Edwards (seriously bro... handle your business after the race with your fists if you feel the need to get some payback) and Big Ben (seriously... again?). But then Lindsey Lohan came around to take the title, with her ridiculously frivolous lawsuit. 100 million dollars? Really?

4. Horns by Joe Hill is an awesome book.

5. Last night's episode of Lost didn't give us a lot of answers but it was a damn good episode. I actually almost felt sorry for Ben Linus... kudos to Michael Emerson for pulling it off. The line "Because no one else will have me" was perfect. This episode was a great example of why Lost is so awesome... you really care about the characters. Also, Widmore is back bitches!

Lost: Sundown

A few thoughts on tonight's episode:

1.)Well I guess that's why Sayid was in the Judas position in the Last Supper promo picture. Oh wait! Fake Locke was in the Jesus position. Maybe Sayid will be redeemed before the season's end.

2.)Goodbye Dogen and Lennon... we hardly knew ye. As soon as Dogen started waxing poetically about his son you just knew as soon as he finished the story Sayid was gonna whack him.

3.)I was so excited Keamy returned! And then he got whacked. Without killing anyone. What. The. Hell. He better have had a bullet proof vest on or something. Keamy is like bacon. He makes everything better.

4.)I wrote a Haiku:

Jacob and Smokey
Are Looking for Replacements
Who? Jack and Sawyer

I think at the end of the series, Sawyer will be the new Jacob and Jack will be the new Smokey.

5.)Looks like a Ben episode is coming next week. I hope this means we get some Charles Widmore...

That's it for now! I'll digest tonight and later I'll explain why Penny is Jack's son's Mom!
