people don't seem to stay dead on Lost.
Scott and that chick who went swimming would beg to differ.
Never fear

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Tavella--I saw it differently than you. I think they tried to get our sympathy for Sawyer in showing him as a little boy, hearing his father murdering his mother and then cowering as his father killed himself. I think what they were hoping to do (and I don't think they quite succeeded) was have us feel some catharsis when he killed Not!Sawyer, and then take that away by in effect saying, "Now he's a murderer and all for nothing. He's even a failure in getting revenge." That didn't make me feel more sympathy for him. Pity maybe.
The writers went to a great deal of trouble to make Not!Sawyer sympathetic--giving him that nice cooking scene and making him confused and sad at death, rather than cursing or something. If they really wanted us no to care about his death, they could have done what drama commonly does, dehumanized him. They could have had Sawyer walk up to the cart and shoot him before he said a word and wasn't quite "real" to us.

Ah, sweet internet. Is there nothing you can't give us?
And the Sayid_fans community seems quite active and iconoriffic.

Have I mentioned the Barberini faun? Because I think I should. ita may set up a whole new page for "Inanimate Men".

Sorry -- I don't do genitalia, Betsy [you know what I mean]. Someone sent me porny pictures today, and I unknowingly viewed them at work and almost died.
There's also Naveen_Daily. I love the daily communities.

Okay. No genitalia. This is armor.

Scott and Joanna should have gotten themselves better agents.
I hope poor Scott's grisly death really does mean that Steve gets moved up to regular status, as I think Dustin Watchman is the best looking guy on that island.
