It's a Backgammon [game]: 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, & 42 happen to be the numbers [points] needed in order to win the game. >[link]

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So, as for backgammon, any number up to 24 could be the triangles, anything up to 12 could be the dice

The doubling cube is in multiples of 4, but 42 isn't anywhere in backgammon, is it?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

hmm. I didn't realize that dice rolls in backgammon can have the following notation:

"Dice rolls are shown either as "4-2" or "42", denoting a roll of four on one die and two on the other."

(from wikipedia on backgammon notation)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

What if the bomb going off on top of that pocket of energy changed the timeline in a different way than we have been assuming? Because that energy-pocket messed with time when it was released by the button not being pushed, so maybe the island was sunk earlier (or later) than we think.

If Sun gets to the temple and Jin is out in the jungle looking for her and they still don't reunite I will be so mad.

I've seen speculation on another board that Sawyer's parents are not dead. If that's the case, maybe it's tied to Locke's changed relationship with his father, since his father was the con man that caused the death of Sawyer's parents.

rewatching season 3 and my goodness, Juliet is so very awesome. What a rich character. It's so sad Elizabeth Mitchell doesn't have equally good material to work with on V. Same goes for the actress who played Penny who is now on Flashforward.

Tried rewatching the second season but couldn't do it. I think that was the WAAAALT!!! season as well as the Shut Up, Charlie season. 3 is a bit of the latter, but not as much as I remember.

Am currently entrenched in the notoriously bad Bai Ling ep, which I never actually watched.

coffee: the badness, oh it burns!

The island stuff is fine. But, Mrs. Tyler and "then put it on me" is just awful.

more coffee: didn't realize how much they'd started to seed Paolo and Nikki into season 3. It's retroactively annoying.
