The herald provides a pointer to the challenge

Hmm. Then I think Hec and I are both right. Because Merrick pointed Buffy towards slayerdom and she refused at first, so he's definitely a Herald. I'm thinking, though, that we don't need to be limited to one Herald. There are a number of stages to the hero's journey and each one could conceivably be "heralded" by a major change in the hero's path. New challenges arise, another herald points the hero towards it. Which gives me pause. I sure as hell hope Hurley is not going to be the only Herald. It could get a bit boring.

I said "surprise you" not make you want to hurl (objects at the TV or your dinner. Whichever).

We're at 72% now. Woo!

This is the danger of deconstruction. I will still laugh, when Hurley comes up with some Hurley-ism in future episodes.

t begins to threadsuck for the Kate-ometer.

eta: Grr. Where is the Kate-ometer? I need to do better than JenP, because I am competitive, in that way.

I know. I quit doing it after season 6 of Buffy, I got burnt out. But, there's just so much going on in Lost. I've got a million and one ideas, none of them even close to confirmed. It's just fun googling various gods and monsters.

The download race? I was so confused until I realized this is what you probably mean.

I'm at 76% now.

Really. I am so grooving on this show.

JenP, my threadsuck searching for the Kate-ometer was unsuccessful. There is no Kate-ometer. I declare 73%, unless someone can point to the actual test.

on edit: OH! What a nimrod am I? I thought someone had put up a quiz that would reveal Kate's story. You are refering to Daniel's link to the excellent HDTV-quality torrent link to eppy 3.

Yes, the link is golden. That LOL person, despite the t hurl awful handle, has the real goods. As does Daniel.

Gus, are we talking about the same thing? (I missed the ep about Kate, and I am among the "those who aren't as familiar with bittorrents" of whom Daniel speaks. So, yay, Daniel for making it so easy.)

Not so much. See my x-post, above.

Just saw it.

Heh, heh. I was all .".. competition? There's a competition? Well, at least I'm winning. What's the competition?!?!???"

No, no. Not competetive at all. Really. Yeah, right.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

So, based on Gus's link, Sawyer is the trickster?
