Boone survived a fall in a moving jet plane from 30,000 feet, but could not survive a fall in a stationary plane from 30 feet.
Heeeeeee.
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

What is even happening?
I was looking through Natter 27 (which is from a little more than 2 years ago) for something, and came across a Lost conversation, starting somewhere after post 6050 (slightly out of order so I don't have to keep copying the quotes-back).
me: TiVo was relevant to my life for about 6 months.
Betsy: Maybe you will fall in love with *Lost*.
Kristen: Just in time for them to cancel it.
me: That's where the smart money is.
Jess: I can't honestly see Lost lasting more than a season -- I just don't know where it has to go. It's not even like they can spice things up by adding new characters (unless another plane crashes on the same island every year around November sweeps or something.)
Kristen: I think it's easier to be a successful TV show when you don't ever go anywhere.
Jess: But JJ Abrams is all about the long multiseason arc. And I can't see Lost doing the same kinds of resets as Alias has been able to -- being stranded on an island, they're in a very finite universe. Eventually, they'll have solved all the mysteries, exposed everyone's secrets, and it'll just be a bunch of bored hungry people sitting around the campfire trying to build a coconut phone.
Allyson: And cannibalism.
Besty: Maybe they could put on Hamlet.
Katie M.: Now I'm imagining the Hamlet that would result from fifty randomly-chosen people digging up their memories of eleventh grade, and I really want to see that episode. Especially if it's a musical.
Other notable comments:
Allyson: There's a lot of other survivors no one focuses on who will all be sort of red shirts.
MAIN CHARACTER: Let's check out that cave with the bloodstains all around the perimeter.
OTHER MAIN CHARACTER: Yes, I bet there's tivo and a blackberry inside!
RANDOM OTHER SURVIVOR WITH NO SCREEN TIME TIL NOW: Hey! I volunteer!
And so on.
Liese: I'm going to assume I'm going to hate Lost. Seems easier that way. Less emotional risk. I'll still watch it, but hopefully won't like it. That way it'll stay on the air.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Eventually, they'll have solved all the mysteries, exposed everyone's secrets
HA.
Oh, if only we had known...

What is even happening?
If only.
Liese and Kristen are damned near prophetic though, and if you consider the hatch, Allyson's not all that far off.

The warden -- I've seen him in a million things. . . so -- are they going to do a rough Lostzilla heart transplant?

I guess he'll be up for getting Jack out now.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Crap! Now we get to listen in every time Sawyer gets all hot and bothered. This should be annoying, since his temper always seems to be up.
Warden: Bill Duke, saw him last as Phelan on the Bowel Movement ep of BSG
I'm really hating this whole "we're not bad cuz we don't kill" schtick from the Others. No, they just mind-f*** people, manipulate and torture, demean, humiliate, threaten, and break people psychologically.
But thank goodness they're not killers. /sarcasm

Because books.
"Come on, I got license plates to make." Heh.
Oh dear. Sawyer is a baby daddy.

He's a bad baby daddy. (Of course.)
