Lost!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Repeat!?! Booo.

Stupid March Madness.

I'm glad I watched a bit of it though. This time I noticed Amy pull something (earplugs) out of the control box of the sonic wall. I was wondering how she could have been hearing perfectly fine up until then.

I'm not necessarily sold on the Lost statue being Ramses II. I just thought it was interesting that both statues have a very similar stance and were also broken off just above the foot. Another difference between the 2 is Ramses has the left leg forward but the Lost statue appears to have the right leg forward.

However, they both seem to be about the same height, hands down to the side holding objects, facing forward with one leg in front of the other.

Another caller (in the same Lost Podcast episode) mentioned that it looks like the statue is holding an ankh (which also supports your Anubis idea). Interestingly, Amy's husband, Paul, had an ankh necklace.

Yeah, the ankh necklace plus large statue equals Egypt. Which is kind of insane. WTF, writers? WTF.

How far away is Tunisia(aka ~The exit~) from Egypt?

Well, there is a connection with Egypt and Atlantis.

I'm still set on the whole Atlantis theory.

Lost is an anagram of Slot. The whole show is nothing but a metaphorical representation of the programming of a modern Vegas slot machine. The numbers are the seed for the random # generator. Each plane crash or capsized boat represents a new player inserting their player's club card. What the donkey wheel represents should be obvious, I'm not going to bore you with that.

It's probably at the Luxor, thus Ramses.

Egypt was once a member of the Carthaginian Empire(Carthage is in Tunisia).

The Egyptian god of War((Charles Widmore told Locke "War is coming")) carries an ankh.

Poor Sun! They had me for a while there. The plane definitely time traveled (it went from night to day, noticed by the copilot), so they had me believing that they all were back in '77 afterall. But that just didn't make sense with the abandoned Dharma station. So now I wonder WHEN they actually are.

And, what is going to happen to Ben next. The other passengers still on that island know that Frank and Sun took the boat. Which means Ben regains consciousness and tells them. And when we saw him in the hatch/sickbay, he was in WAY worse shape than a bump on the back of his head. Someone or something messes him up good.

Good episode. The only thing I didn't like was that last conversation between Jack and Sawyer. The conflict there was forced and heavy handed. It just didn't make sense to me that the two of them would so instantly be hostile to each other. I understand it's a continuation of the power struggle theme between them, but in that situation it just didn't make sense for Jack to be such a dick. Or even for Sawyer to be so snide in response.

I'm scratching my head as to why Sun didn't warp back to 1977. What was different about her?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, there goes the donkey wheel theory.

Hmm, she's the only other one who saw Widmore in person, isn't she....
