Too Cute for Mere Mortals

How will I choose?

Finally have a picture of my puppy. Not sure which of these two I’ll get, I’m going to pick her out on Feb. 11.

From what we know so far, probably the one on the right, “Minnie.” The one on the left they are calling “Lady”. I’m partial to the darker golden Goldens, than the lighter ones that are all the craze.

Either way, they are ridiculously adorable:

One Step Closer to Obsession

Friday, January 27th, 2006

I discovered “The Transmission” a fan produced Lost Podcast. Finally I can get more Lost info. It’s actually a very well done podcast, with recap, production info, discussion on the episode’s events, but the best part is the call in section, where they play people’s calls from their “lostline.” I love hearing all the theories, and all the stuff people pick up on. For me, it makes it much more enjoyable. Check them out, or find them on iTunes.

I found a number of things pretty interesting, after having listened to all their episodes:

  • There are alot of influences, but apparently it draws heavily on Steven King’s The Stand, and a battle between good vs. evil.
  • The writers have confirmed that Pergatory is NOT the nature of the island.
  • They claim that there is a logical explanation for everything.
  • They claim there are no mistakes or accidents in the writing. Which is to say that things you see and know are very intentional. (This has later been disproven, there have been discovered a couple, like seriously 2, continuity errors.)
  • The Monster is NOT Nanite/Nanobot (as in Michael Crichton’s Prey) related.

I love knowing that the island is not pergatory, because there’s so much more to figure out. I can’t wait to see what the ‘logical’ explanations are for everyone surviving a plan crash of this type. If you know of other good Lost websites, send them along.

Oh yes, and I also was checking out The Hanso Foundation’s website. Kind of funny, they list 7 projects, one of which is about electromagnetism… all food for thought of course, but are there perhaps 7 bunkers? What’s your favorite theory?

My “Lost” Addiction Continues

Thursday, January 12th, 2006

New season started… Like everyone else trying to figure out what that island is. My friends think it’s pergatory, and everyone is dead.

This certainly is the most probable, but I sorta think it’s too obvious, like that’s what everyone thinks. I sure hope it’s better than that. What the hell is the smoke thing? Not there have been 2 people to stare it down right? Locke, and Echo? Is the whole thing a number curse? The number popping up in lots of places, is it causal or coincidence? Always more questions.

It better be good though; it’ll be a real letdown if the aliens turn Mulder psychic.

My Puppy Is Coming!

I heard from my puppy’s breeder this morning that Jewel (the mom) has gone into labor! She’s got 11 puppies to deliver!
