I sure do...she's not far from beautiful downtown Ludlowville.

I agree 100%. I grew up in Ithaca (Lansing actually) and that area is definitely not Bills territory. I'd say it's more of a Giants town, unfortunately.

I'm heading up to the Ithaca for the weekend with the family and will actually be staying near the SUNY Cortland campus (damn NASCAR fans filled up all the hotel rooms in Ithaca!). We're going to hit the early practice on Sunday, so I'll provide a first-hand report later that day.

Ouch.

Good thing it wasn't Travis Henry she saw...one look from him and she'd be carryin' his baby!

Anyone see this yet? Hmmm... http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index?pn=index

Hello all! Good to see some off-season discussion going on here...I miss the heck out of the show and my personal life definitely does not permit the watching of old eps. I have to rely on your guys to extract clues and goodies. I've watched the beginning of the S5 finale a number of times and it just fascinates me. The tete-a-tete between Jacob and MIB is absolutely great viewing and classic Lost. In just a few sentences, so much is said (and unsaid). My signature alludes to my feeling that Hurley is the key to it all. While he might not be all that, I do think that his "purity" (as tgreg pointed out) is very very important here. I can't think of anything "bad" that he's done, and in fact, perhaps Jacob said it best in the cab when he said that Hugo was "blessed." More meaning to that than even what Jacob explained. Hugo has been the victim in this show so often that it's almost as if he's been making sacrifices from the start. And all the while he has been essentially the main font of goodness and sincerity throughout. Damn I love this show!

She's not bad...I'm thinking of asking her out for drinks.

As much as I would have liked that, it doesn't look to be the case... http://ontheflix.com/2009/06/06/abcs-lost-...ot-coming-back/

I really liked Life on Mars and it had a fantastic cast. While they were allowed to actually end the show because they got early notice that they were being cancelled, the ending kinda sucked. Oveall a damn good show though.

I'm liking this thread... The chroise has yet to throw a pass for fear that it would circle the world and reverse time (it happened once in college and boy what a mess THAT turned out to be!).

Hey...anyone else think that Adam and Eve (the two skeletons in the cave from S.1) are Rose and Bernard?

I thought the letter was spot on...well done!

If this organization is so pathetic that they sign this POS, then I will root for the team to loss every game of every season until he and the front office who signed him are sent on their merry f*cking way.

You know...I was kind of thinking the same thing. I think Jacob knows that his "death" will ultimately serve his purpose.

Yep...I sure do. I like to slide them into the associated CD case if I have the CD for that tour. One of my favorites is Big Country at UB's Clark Gym in 1983.

And I found this interesting...IMDb does not show in the cast list for last nights episodes either Jacob or the other beach guy.

He touched Kate too...on her nose, remember? I believe that boat to be the Blackrock, though how the heck did it get all the way inland (a time jump?)? I thought the same about Juliette when I saw she was in a new show...sort of foreshadowing what might have been coming in last night episode. A friend of mine suggested that the bomb exploding is what destroyed the statue.

Exactly. Now one has to ponder what I mentioned in a previous post...is this guy Christian as well?

I think it's clear that he's Jacob's "friend," as in the beach seen that guy referred to trying to find a loophole so that he could kill Jacob. At the end, Jacob looks at "John" and remarks that "...it looks like you found your loophole."

Here are more thoughts on what we found out last night... Christian arrives on the island and then apparently rises from the dead. It is Christian who then occupies Jacob's old cabin and eventually tells John that he has to die to get everyone to come back to the island. John does this, returns to the island also in a coffin, and then is also apparently brought back from the dead. We then find out at the end that the "risen John" is actually Jacob's beach buddy. It's very clear that Jacob and this other fellow are adversaries, and that both appear to be working towards something. Jacob facilitates Nadia dying which sends Sayid on the path to where he shoots Ben, yet when John falls out of the window and seems like he should die, Jacob possibly brings him back to life and then apologizes and reassures. Richard is the advisor to Jacob...then was Widmore the advisor to the beach dude? It certainly seems like the actions of the Widmore camp are in line with beach dude while Ellie and those associated with her are in line with Jacob. And it seems like Ilana and her gang are on Jacob's side too (oops...I just remembered that Jacob actually came to her bedside and asked for help, so this would make sense). Random ramblings for sure...

After rewatching the opening scene where we meet Jacob, I am even more convinced that my theory that everything has been happening on the island in one big loop in correct. Jacobs comment that "It only ends one...anything that happens before that is just progress" bears this out. And I'm now convinced that Jacob represents a God-like figure and his unnamed counterpart represents a devil-like figure. Jacob in white vs. the other fellow in black. Could this island be God's continuing study of humanity in a microcosm? Lastly, this scene also reminded me of the palaver between Roland and the man in black at the end of the first Dark Tower book. Here's a link to the opening scene...
