With "Walkabout", "Special" and "Numbers" under his belt, I think Fury can probably claim the mantle of best staff writer on the show.

How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

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

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, this was a great episode. Go Fury. I kept pausing the tivo to wave my hands around and exclaim.
I love Hurley, and I liked his mom a lot, too. Love all the interconnectedness. It's fantastic, even if only incidental. I also loved what Vonnie was reacting to, the way that obsessives like us can watch and enjoy and squee, but it isn't in such a way that casual viewers can't watch, too.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I don't understand the existence of people who don't think of that.
Same here.
Also, Jessica, Kristin, Sean and P-C are obviously very hoopy.

Hey, standing right here! Or should I be having some kind of existential crisis?
Signed, also haven't finished the LotR books, have read no Harry Potter, That Book with Rabbits, and whichever book Sawyer was reading in this episode. I should walk around in smock with a giant P branded in the front for Philistine.

Flailing around at the numbers...
I looked up the sequence in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, and came up empty.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
I was a big geek last night and tried adding all the different combinations of those number to find anything significant. I didn't really find anything (although I had fun number crunching).

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

Man. And here I thought we had something in common.

Yeah, I added them together and got 108. Which is 9 x 12.
AND OMG 9/12 IS MY BIRTHDAY!!!11

I think he was reading "A Wrinkle in Time" this ep. He must have found a kid's suitcase this time around. With that long of a flight, I'm surprised there wasn't more reading material on board.

Shunned! Shunned by the Brain-Twin! t throws self out of Hurley's window
It's funny that the only person we've seen reading so far is Sawyer, the resident redneck. I'm rather charmed to think of Sawyer being enthralled with children's books.

Yep, definitely A Wrinkle in Time. I think the writers are having fun showing Sawyer reading incongruous things that the audience is likely to recognize.
