Okay, I get more and more irritated every year that we don’t see more of the “good” singers. I liked that in Season 2 I was able to predict Ruben and Clay for the Finals. Would I even see them these days? Doubtful. Although one can assume from the amount of coverage given certain performers that they’ll be around for a while. Although they covered Scooter Girl quite a bit last time…
Yawn…get me to the Finals!
Changed my mind…I gotta do some predictions before hitting the character summaries. I’ll take credit for all the hits and edit out all the misses…
Jack:
We haven’t seen the last of his father.
Kate:
Was not being brought in because of the bank robbery.
Something about Jack recalls to Kate “the man [she] killed.”
Sawyer:
Will be redeemed, at least a little, but not this season.
Locke:
Locke was in a different profession before he was crippled. Maybe a cop? Forest Ranger? Army Ranger? Royal Ranger?
Sayid:
Will finally come out and tell everybody, “I’m Indian, you idiots!”
Claire:
The people who took Claire were looking for someone with a child. They’ll find they really wanted Walt.
(once she recovers) Will tell Charlie to mix in a razor and some shampoo.
Charlie:
Will go at least one episode without a one-liner. “Verbally copulating” is my current favorite.
Boone/Shannon:
Somebody will learn of their…er…encounter, and pronounce as I did, “Ew.”
Hurley
Will fail to say “dude” in at least one episode. Maybe that’ll be the season-ending cliffhanger.
Michael/Walt:
Walt made the plane crash. We’ve already seen that he makes things happen. He called a bird to him, called a polar bear to him, called (maybe?) his dog to him…so maybe he called the island to him. The plane breaking up in the way it did was just not normal.
May be causing all the hallucinations.
Jin/Sun:
Jin finds out Sun speaks English and reveals that he’s been learning Esperanto. Or, he learns English from Hurley and takes over as the resident “Dude” purveyor.
Evil Ethan (clarification since my son’s name is Ethan):
Is actually Adam, the French Woman’s son. Or, the monster thingy is the French Woman’s “child.”
I’m gonna use this title for my musings about my current favorite show, “Lost”. Just in case anyone’s interested, I also love “24″, “Medical Investigation”, “CSI”, “American Idol”, and “The Amazing Race”.
But this is about “Lost”!
I think I’ll just go character by character and fill in the blanks about their characters, background, and give some predictions about them.
But it’ll have to wait until at least after dinner…
I’m a grown man. Maybe not a mature man, but I’m fully grown, darn it! I can open my own stinkin’ door!
Background: To get into my building, I have to walk through the outer doors, then the inner doors, then a badge-detection portal. The badge-reader requires about a two second delay between entries or it beeps at you and you have to go through again. Therefore it’s in my best interest to be about, let’s see…two seconds behind the person in front of me. The doors should aid me in this goal.
But…no. Moron in front of me is probably ten seconds ahead but insists on opening the door, stepping inside, then holding onto the door in a very uncomfortable-looking manner. Sigh. Typically I’ll scowl and shake my head, although sometimes I stop and pretend to need to tie my shoes. I wear Birkenstocks.
Assuming I choose the former and accept this “generosity,” I’m now directly behind this idiot. Second set of doors (six feet away)…same drill. Grrrrr.
At this point, thanks to this moron, I actually have to slow down before going through the portal. Grrrrr.
If you’re reading this, and you do this…don’t. It’s not generous. It’s not helpful. It’s annoying. Unless the person behind you is impaired in some way (hands full, in a wheelchair, on crutches, missing an arm, voted for Kerry), let the door swing naturally. If they’re close enough that you could hold the door without it being awkward…don’t. Let it swing. They’ll catch it. Two arms. They work. Americans get little enough exercise as it is…we should not be deprived of opening our own doors!
I had a guy hold the door for me going into the bathroom. Seriously? I almost punched him. Swirly would have been more appropriate. If he hadn’t been my manager we really would have had a problem.
