Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I know. We already had a Christmas break for a month and now they want an extra two weeks?!?!

Thrive to spite them

That will give me time to try and figure out what's going on with my VCR, for some reason it won't let me set the clock.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

And my DVR keeps erasing my recordings! TV is out to get us!

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

OK, random but has anyone seen that commercial (for Staples or something) with the guy handing out posters for his missing rubberband ball? The ones that say "LOST" in big letters? Every time I see that I think, "That should be a commercial for Lost". How cool would that be, like people are trying to get the word out about Lost. OK, maybe it should really be for some less-watched but equally deserving show, like Veronica Mars, but it would be neat to play on the viewers' expectations that the flyer would be for some Lost object and is instead for a TV show.

Or maybe I've put WAY too much thought into this.

It does always seem to be on DURING Lost. Which is smart, because we're all so obsessed that when we see the 'Lost' posters, we pay attention.

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

arby, I've definitely noticed them, especially when they appear during Lost. We thought it was cute, but then they appeared during Alias too. I don't watch any other ABC shows, so I don't know if there's any pattern.

The Rubberband Man! I love the Rubberband Man.

Maybe it's subliminal! Glad to know I'm not the only one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I, too, Dana. And I feel very sad for him, for lo, he has lost his very identity. And some poor, probably well-meaning, soul has tried to replace it with the mundane, and not the true Rubberbands of the Rubberband Man.

And yeah, I always look at that ad and think, huh, Lost. Shortly after that I think, Gee, I hope he recycles all that paper. And the used ink cartridges.

There is a new commercial, Liese. And, you know, not to spoil it for you, but things turn out okay in the end.
