[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
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."
So, I wonder if the numbers could mean:
years, months, weeks, days, minutes, seconds
maybe not in numerical order.
or...
years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds
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.
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.
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.
ETFinish my thought
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.
BugMeNot gave me privacy1st@mailinator.com password=tribune and that worked.
