If you're a Lost fan and you don't follow Jorge Garcia's blog, why?
Even if you're not a Lost fan, it's a hoot.

Lost liveblogging, sort of
9:17 -- just had a wacky thought: what if Daniel is Charlotte's father???? Bet he is, bet he is, bet he is!!! (That would explain the strong, but non-sexual connection between them...)
9:28 -- the fact that he just said he was in love with her does NOT negate my theory!!! (I mean, could he say, I love this woman who is the same age as I am because she's my daughter? Could he? Could he?)
9:42 -- theory still holds. Did you see that woman in the bed, the Charlotte lookalike?
Show's over. Nothing happened to convince me that my theory is wrong. Daniel and Teresa are Charlotte's parents.
Also, because he doesn't know who Locke is in 195-whatever, I don't think Richard is a time-traveler, just some form of immortal or a man whose parents gave him really excellent longevity genes.
Wouldn't this just all sound goofy to someone who doesn't follow Lost? :)

Lost: Something Nice Back Home
Checking in long enough to say...
this was the first Lost episode in ages that provided more answers than questions.
Plenty of questions, too, though.
(Nice way to mislead us in the previews by saying "the island takes one survivor for its own..." Ha! I fell for it.)

Lost: The Shape of Things to Come
...and they won't be pretty.
My unscientific sampling suggests that at 10:58 Eastern Standard Time, millions of Lost fans were moaning the same thing: "Nooooo, not Penny!!!" I base this on the fact that not only is that what I was saying, but several minutes later when I called my daughter, that, not hello, was the first thing she said to me.
It's pretty clear at this point -- to me, anyway -- that time travel (in body and not just mind) from the island is possible, though not easy, and last night Ben pulled it off, jumping from (probably) late 2003 to 2005. Apparently the desert is the arrival point (hence the "ancient" polar bear remains with the Dharma charm previously found in mid-desert).
One suspects that this is Ben's first such trip. Witness his glee at confirming that yes, of course, it's 2005 (Michael Emerson so rocks):
The big mystery is the nature of the Ben/Widmore rivalry. The game of Risk played by the men in the early scene serves as metaphor for the rest of the episode. But how? When Widmore tells Ben to go ahead and kill him, Ben says, "You know I can't do that." Yet Ben is earlier stunned to find that Widmore has "changed the rules" (NOT "violated" them). That Ben "can't" kill Widmore suggests that there's something going on beyond a pissing match between these two men, some larger force that restrains him.
What?????
Oh, and now we know how Ben manipulated Sayid into being his personal assassin. (This leads us to wonder who really killed Nadia.)
Of late, I've been inclined to believe that Ben was being truthful all those times that he has said, "We're the good guys." Despite the fact that many of his actions have had heinous effects on individuals, he seems to subscribe to utilitarianism as his worldview.
But threatening Penny? That's clearly just personal. And mean.
(The splendid screencaps come from here.)

I am well and truly Lost now: Lost Madness
A "friend" just told me about Lost Madness at the Washington Post:
More on this later as time permits.
(But seriously -- between Jack and Cindy, who did you think was going to win? And while Locke and Sayid go head-to-head next time, Kate's up against...Vincent?? I smell a fix.)
During the NCAA Tournament, college basketball freaks get to advance their favorite teams through a series of brackets. Now, it’s the “Lost” fans’ turn.I call her a "friend" because a real friend wouldn't feed in to my obsession. No, no.
Introducing “Lost” Madness, a two-week competition where readers can vote for their favorite “Lost” characters in 32 face-offs featuring 64 of the key players from the Oceanic 815 universe. By the time it’s all over, a champion – otherwise known as the best “Lost” character ever – will emerge.

A Good Day
Definition of a good day:
1. The semi-official end of the workweek (I actually work 7 days a week, and I have a meeting tomorrow, but no more classes this week).
2. Payday.
3. New episode of Lost in 2 hours, 50 minutes.
Check, check, and check.
This is officially a good day.

An integral part of the next contract for actors on Lost should be...
drivers.
The only question is, should the actors demand them or should the producers demand that the actors use them?
