when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
I feel so much less crazy now. With the bringing-multiple-books-because-I-don't-know-what-I'll-be-in-the-mood-for, that is. My family always mocks me for it. My people!
Lilty, I always bring a bottle of water--plane trips dehydrate VERY easily. I got my first Nalgene bottle "because it wouldn't get squished when I kicked my carryon under the seat."

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So, I wonder if the numbers could mean:
years, months, weeks, days, minutes, seconds
maybe not in numerical order.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
or...
years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I ususally travel with at least three or four wide-ranging choices, supplemented occasionally by a couple of others picked up in the airport, on the theory that I don't know what *precisely* I'll be in the mood to read.
eight for a week. 2 or 3 on the plane the rest in the suitcase. Often - I come home with 10.
Dh and I once went to my GP in South Carolina. for a week, but it was very hot in the middle of the day. We ran out of books. and both of us had about 10.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That is really cool, Allyson.
I, however, am an idiot, since I thought that the party was the following weekend. It doesn't make a difference, really, but I need to work out a couple of things.

Huh. Our modest little party seems to have garnered a mention in the Chicago Tribune.

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)
beth is me! The BF mocks me for bringing so many books when I almost always either buy more or get them as gifts on my trip - and hardly ever finish all of them unless my relatives leave me alone enough (read: almost never) - BUT I'd rather carry the extra weight than chance being without reading material of my choice when away from home. Carryon: usually 2 - the one I'm currently reading and a spare in case I finish the first one on the plane. But often I buy another one or two in the airport bookstore/newstand. Those ones are usually either Elizabeth Peters or Stephen King. Very, very rarely I'll buy a magazine.
re: the Numbers Stations - did anyone else get a major wiggins from this:
The voices that can be heard on these stations are often those of children, or are mechanically generated.
Sounds like a horror movie gimmick but still - eeee.
re: Hurley as patient - count me on the side of those who say Yes - but I can't think what for. (Think if it was schitzophrenia or something involving delusions, he would have been a lot more doubting of his own instincts regarding the numbers being cursed. Yes, he badly wanted validation - and finally got it from Rousseau - but before that he didn't seem to question himself/his sense of reality even though everyone else kept saying it was crazy.)
Agree it was telegraphed pretty obviously - for this show anyway - but we've seen stuff that wasn't a major surprise in the flashbacks before. Jack's first ep telegraphed the second IIRC.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Is there are buffista login for the Tribune, Kristen (or anyone)?
Finally got around to watching last night, and knew I wouldn't catch up here before bed. Nothing much to add. Loved the ep. Fury rocks it, per usual. Loved, loved, LOVED the scene with Rousseau and Hurley.
Also, I really hope Locke turns out to have his own agenda, but not necessarily an evil one. I like how he could go almost any way now.
