They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

You two are awful snippy this morning. What gives?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

You mean the obit that Jack read and was the reason HE was about to jump off a bridge?

Good point! Of course Jack read it!

I didn't think I was being snippy, Cindy (and I didn't take P-C's post as such). Sorry if it came across that way.

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

I too was not intending to be snippy, just responding in turn.

Good point! Of course Jack read it!

And then there was the whole thing Richard said to Locke: "You're going to have to die, John." He was going to have to die in order convince the rest to come back. Which also implied that he would have to kill himself. So the fact that John killed himself shouldn't have been a huge surprise to the audience, but I am really baffled as to why it was to Jack, who read the damn obituary (a prop that even that long ago had the name Jeremy Bentham on it). The Lost producers KNOW the fandom screencaps the shit out of everything—hell, they COUNT on it—so I'm really surprised they fucked this up. Maybe Jack didn't believe the obit, but even then, it shouldn't have come as such a big shock since the seed had already been planted.

We have no heat, our furnace guy is in Puerto Rico, and the guy that's covering for him has informed me that we're third on his list. Plus? The kids are home on vacation (but we can't do anything, because we're waiting for the furnace tech), so I probably read in the snippy. I'm sorry about that.

Shouldn't Locke's corpse have looked worse if he died by hanging?

Are we really sure that they came back to the "real world"?

I mean, I don't even think I like that theory, but I just thought about it, and...

The Fishers did a good job.

Compassionately intolerant

I know I am a quibbler that quibbles but, Jack dives into an unkonwn pool, not knowing the depth, then tells Hurley they can stand in the water. A doctor...unless they've never seen the inside of an ER..is unlikely to risk breaking his neck that way!

Hasn't he been in that pool before? I'm pretty sure that's the pool where all the corpses and wreckage ended up.

My hope is that Ben tried to get to Penny and Desmond kicked his ass, or Penny did, or they did it together.
