What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I'll bet Scott and Steve will eventually wind up murdering everybody else in their sleep. Just to get more air time.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

OK, so we have a bunch of secrets on the island, revealed to only a few selected people.

Only Kate, Sayid, Sawyer, Charlie, Boone and Shannon were to see OMGWTF POLAR BEAR and the creepy Frenchy signal, right? And someone (Kate, I think) told Jack.

Only Kate, Jack and Charlie saw what the invisimechasaur was capable of (mauling the pilot.)

Only Locke had looked eye-to-eye with the Eye/invisimechasaur.

Only Locke knows about the fact the island cured his paraplegia.

Kate's criminal past: only known to Jack and Hurley.

Charlie's smackfarthing habits: only known to Jack and Locke.

Jack's hallucination-maybe of his creepy dad: Only Locke knows.

Sawyer's past: Known only to Kate.

Sun speaking English: only known to Michael.

So, the holder of most secrets = Jack and Locke. What does that mean? I don't know. I have to work on this presentation for work and I'm in an avoid-y mood.

Hurley's gonna leak like a Yugo's engine block.

If I only had a brain...

I wonder if the plane is going to turn out to be the Bridge At San Luis Rey. (Has anybody else read that?)

[it's not that I think I'm terribly literate, it's that I think the book has become obscure.]

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

so i posted megan walker's french translation over at the Fuselage and one of the poster's there had a response to it that i thought i would bring over here to discuss.

tiggy--A while back I was wondering if anyone was going to come up with the French broadcast, and I'm glad someone did--I think there's an assumption being made that could be incorrect.

In the part "Il les a tue" or "He/It killed them," don't forget that in French, "les" can also refer to something plural that is not human. For example, you could say "Il a tue les chats" or "Il les a tue" for "He/It killed the cats."

If you wanted to say "He/It killed them" and expressly mean it was people who were killed I believe you would say "Il eux a tue," because "eux" is the personal pronoun. If you were having a conversation and it was already understood that the "les" referred to people you would use that, if not I think you would use "eux."

In any event, you can't conclude that it was people who were killed, because the way it's worded it could be either way.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. . .

thoughts? comments?

Kate's criminal past: only known to Jack and Hurley.

Doesn't Sawyer suspect something? And also, no one but Kate knows exactly what it is she did.

Only Sun knows Jin is Korean Mafia, although they all now know he's violent.

No one knows Sun planned to leave Jin.
