agentlion no, not necessarily. i'm saying that they are typical barbie-doll blonds " |
whoops, I was thinking of Nikki, not Naomi! Nikki and Shannon are in the same hollywood-blond type. Naomi definitely has a sort of natural beauty to her, but not even in the same league as Kate6/15/2008 11:27:09 PM |

wow, I completely forgot about Nikki and whoever his name was... ( I also mixed Naomi & Nikki )
I wonder if they will ever tie their story back to the main plot line?? ( or prove to us all that they are more than willing to waste our time on pointless subplots ) 6/16/2008 3:27:10 PM |

they've already came out and have admitted it to being a big mistake. It can also be blamed on the fans though since they were complaining about not knowing anything about the other survivors. They already had Rose and Bernard, don't know why they thought they needed Nikki and Paolo. 6/16/2008 3:50:38 PM |

What are you talking about? I'm pretty sure the actress that plays Rose didn't appear this season because she had scheduling conflicts. And she's been there from the start, she wasn't just written in like whosherface and whatshisname.6/16/2008 4:38:53 PM |

Why don't you reread my post. I'm clearly talking about Nikki and Paolo not being needed, not Rose and Bernard. 6/16/2008 5:02:51 PM |

You put Rose and Bernard on the same level as Nikki and Paulo, though. That was my point. 6/16/2008 5:27:31 PM |

I said,
Quote : | "Oh, I think there is something big about reincarnation with the plot. That thing that Jacob (?) did with Locke as a child is similar to the process used to see if kids are reincarnate spiritual leaders in the east. So for Jacob to get mad at Locke for saying something was his had a lot of significance. Perhaps Locke is the reincarnate of some special person to the island which Jacob has some beef with in general ( be it Locke or his past life place holder )... this might shed light on why Jacob gets Locke sent back to the real world...
Obviously speculating." |
then Ernie was apparently offended by my ignorance or something,
Quote : | " It was Richard, not Jacob. We still don't know who/what Jacob is. ... Reincarnation? Really? You think Richard is reincarnated as a 35 year-old man who looks exactly as he did 50 years ago? " |
I tried to get across in my post I was uncertain about it being "Jacob", thanks for pointing out I meant Richard.
I didn't mean to say Richard was reincarnate Richard or some such thing. I meant that Richard is worried that perhaps Locke is reincarnate of some figure central to the Island's destiny.

Sorry I missed it, see your mistake was not making an obvious error for people to jump all over in the interest of drawing attention to your idea... 6/16/2008 6:13:21 PM |

its pretty useless to try and predict what will happen from here on out - especially after that finale'... If locke moved the island in space and time, then that opens up too many possibilities....
So when does the next season start again? 6/16/2008 9:42:03 PM |

I just read this on cracked.com about a historical figure named Jeremy Bentham:
Quote : | "Bentham, who gave the world utilitarianism, also gave the creeps to everyone at London Hospital for almost a century after he passed away.
All his cash went to the hospital, which they probably enjoy, but with the stipulation that they take his body as well. And while some people donate their bodies to science, Bentham just wanted to be hollowed out and cast in wax, and then have his creepy wax likeness sit in on hospital board meetings.
The hospital agreed and for 92 years he sat in on meetings and was presumably recorded as not voting at every single one. As many meetings as he attended after his death, we're guessing he turned up in about three times as many board member nightmares." |

wow, cool. Could definitely see some parallels coming out of that and Locke's body - i wonder if Jack and Ben are taking his dead body back to the Island just so it can sit there and preside over The Other's meetings!
more here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Bentham#Auto-icon
Quote : | "As requested in his will, his body was preserved and stored in a wooden cabinet, termed his "Auto-icon". Originally kept by his disciple Dr. Southwood Smith,[12] it was acquired by University College London in 1850. The Auto-icon is kept on public display at the end of the South Cloisters in the main building of the College. For the 100th and 150th anniversaries of the college, the Auto-icon was brought to the meeting of the College Council, where he was listed as "present but not voting".[13] Tradition holds that if the council's vote on any motion is tied, the auto-icon always breaks the tie by voting in favour of the motion.
The Auto-icon has always had a wax head, as Bentham's head was badly damaged in the preservation process. The real head was displayed in the same case for many years, but became the target of repeated student pranks including being stolen on more than one occasion. It is now locked away securely." |
guess Bentham should be added to the list of character names with alternate meanings along with John Locke, Desmond (David) Hume, Daniel Farrady, Danielle Rousseau, Anthony Cooper, etc7/1/2008 10:41:54 AM |

The dharmawantsyou.com should be live today. Either they forgot to flip the switch or I'm missing some trick. Either or I agree that the viral this summer looks pretty sweet, the initial test was trippy. 8/19/2008 11:14:53 AM |
