Giles ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
Hey, I just realized that Kate pulled the "I don't know how to work guns" line (from last night) on the island too, in the pilot.
I remembered that too, Lee. I took a break from brushing my teeth to inform Tom. I was very proud of my powers of memory.
(if you had the college experience I had, you'd be proud too!)
I think someone switched her to "Lying Liar that Lies all the Time By Default". Or, "Telling the truth is for the weak!"
You might be able to smoke boar meat, or make jerky. And while I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to do so, I betcha Locke does.
The unexpected big waves didn't bother me that much. I figure the whole thing was filmed over a month ago, and they seemed just "there's a tropical storm 100 miles south-east of us" big and not tsunami big. Mostly it seemed as though there was a really annoyed DM somewhere who has been trying to get the characters off the beach for the past three gaming sessions, and he finally just threw the dice and said, "OK, big freaking waves are coming in. Roll your swimming skills or go into the woods already."

I grew up in Southern California ibefore we were supposed to just say no. I suspect my high school experience was much like your college.
I never got the impression anyone was doing anything other than trying not to get bit by a dinosaur, or worrying about their father, or making up excuses for Iraqi bondage.
Island golf.
I just don't get why she would lie about the gun back at the beginning unless she automatically defaulted to, "lie whenever anything comes up- it's better/safer that way."
the more I think about it, the more FUCKED UP that seems. In that situation, especially.
I'm always puzzled by people who lie for no discernable reason.

I think that's part of it, though I can also understand not wanting to reveal that she's handy with a gun. People would have questions, and then she'd have to lie more. Better to lie in a way that people wouldn't pry into.

Other people had just found out there was a prisoner onboard the plane and Sawyer and Sayid were accusing each other of being same in an argument. I think she had a pretty good reason to cast suspicion away from herself (while winning people's respect at the same time).
oh, I forgot that.
oops

Oh, I'm sure you're right, and it was just bad timing. It struck me as an unfortunate and somewhat eerie coincidence, and took me way the hell out of the moment, but I don't see it as "inappropriate" exactly.

Me too- I just quoted Cleolinda because when I read that I remembered being a little weirded out. Nothing to do with logic, more the fact that the images are sort of brain searing. Anyway, I've always had issues/nightmares about giant waves.
Me not talk good today. Apologize for faulty logic, reasoning, grammar, and bedroom (that last part's just for TomW)
