Okay, only laugh I have had all day, and it was a good one. At Nutty's expense. (Sorry, dear.)

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

t Does pratfall into a cream pie in attempt to give flea at least one more laugh...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

is it better to cast DDK as a kinda convincing Korean native, or someone from Japan whose Korean is fluent and casual?

Well, as you know, pet peeve, but for me it would have been optimal to cast someone who was Korean and whose Korean was fluent and casual. Except for the part where that would have meant no DDK, but still.

Being someone who is periodically annoyed to have to run through the "What are you?" gamut, I would rather have more people able to see the actual race purportedly represented, so as to promote less future "They all look the same to me"'s.

But see above, re: pet peeve, so not necessarily the best resource on said issue.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Hey.

The sun rises from over the ocean, on the east coast. On the west coast, NSM. Okay, I know, Hawaii, and it is an island, and I am sure that they actually shoot on, like, the south-facing side or something.

But the whole ocean = sunrise thing is so imprinted in my brain that California, and by extension everything west of me, is Very Different.

Actually, they shoot on the north coast of O'ahu. Sun rises from behind their right shoulders, if they're standing on the beach looking out at the ocean.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

A) Move to Vancouver. Plus: green. Minus: no sun; too cold to prance around in bikinis.

Someone over on the TVtome.com forums floated the theory that the island is actually Vancouver Island and the Polar Bears were actually albino black bears (which really do live in B.C.). He was set straight pretty quickly about Vancouver Island not being tropical and also not being deserted or remote.

Perhaps he'll be proved right, however, when the castaways are set upon by hippies, senior citizens, and politicians next week.

Our wings are not tired.

I hope they don't have to move, because how the hell could they make the beach look the same without a whole lotta faking?

Delray Beach! We even have the big banyan trees. We could totally pass as the Lost island, and Sayid and Sawyer could stay at my house.

eta: so we don't have any mountains, but we can work around that

Rolling Stone has an excellent interview with Dom.

Monaghan enjoys the fake voice mails he trades with Abrams: "I call up as his Indian chiropractor, he'll call me as a gay DJ from Orange County and I'll call him back as a German professor wanting to get his waist measurements. I think that's going to continue for years."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Anyone know where can i find pictures of the kiss between Kate and Sawyer? Just because I want to, um, research it.
