Also, Locke is still Teh HOTT.

He is big man on tree too I see.

I have the picture on my desktop, but it is making me sad. A couple weeks ago they tore down a twin of that tree about a mile from my house. Tore it down to build condos. I drive by the empty lot every day and it makes me sick.

Oh Laura, my sister. That's going on all over, here. I can't drive anywhere from my house and not see a familar landscape in the process of being tickytacked. It hurts, yes, and makes me physically ill.

That's one reason I'm hoping to move before I have to witness any more of it. "It'll still go on, wherever you move," you say? Yes. But I won't be in love with a new landscape. I won't have its familiar contours imprinted on me, from all the years it's been there as I walked over it, or drove by it. It won't hurt so much when it's not loved and familiar.

I'm sorry they tore down your tree. Where I live, they'd name the condos after the species of tree: "Deep Willows Creek," "Three Oaks Ridge," "Hawksnest Hollow", etc. The irony's especially painful when it's an old family farm, and the whole development is named "Longmeadow Farm," especially when I knew the family and played there often as a child.

Ah, you do understand my pain. Most people who live on Hagan Ranch Road, or Ives Dairy Road don't understand that a very short time ago these were family farms.

The huge Banyan tree was right downtown, next to a gas station. It is amazing it lasted as long as it did. When you walked under its crown you forgot there was a city. So sad.

But YaY! When I see the Lost tree it brings back the nice memory. I love when they do scenes there. The actors must love climbing the tree. No matter what your age, a tree like that brings out the urge to climb.

Heh. I just read the Details cover article on Matthew Fox, wherein the writer spends an entire page describing how much his day-long interview with Fox felt like a date and trying to convince himself that he was OK with that sensation.

Thank you Laura!

What a pretty, pretty cast.

Hmmm, Matt, think I'll go look for that Details when I'm off at Borders magazine shopping tomorrow.

It finally occurred to me that the cast picture linked to upthread had comments below it.

My god, there's not a development on TV anywhere that doesn't have someone on the internet bitching about it, and if they're bitching on LJ, there will be icons.

So. True.

Oooooh! I just saw an ad for the S1 DVDs that are coming out.... THIS TUESDAY!!!!1!

It's true!

TV Guide had a mini-disk with some stuff on it including a song from Driveshaft. Sadly, my computer won't play it (too small a brain) and I have zero extra time at work to fool around with this sort of thing. And I can't play the song on my cd players because there is a warning that the mini-disk can ruin a cd or dvd drive that isn't a tray entry sort of drive.

Did anyone watch the mini-disk?

The set was in my Gold box a few weeks ago, and I got a message from Amazon yesterday that it had shipped.
