Happy Odd Day

Today's date 5/7/09, is one of only six this century that will feature three consecutive odd numbers. Math geeks are calling it "Odd Day". Those who are not math geeks are just calling it "Thursday"

Big Foot caught on tape!

I'm a believer now. You cannot deny this video... this is real!!!

Lost: Jacob's a dead man?!?

This is the reason why I love this damn show... I really have no idea where this thing is going now. I've predicted some big stuff this season, but now I'm done with the predictions for the finale, and I'm just along for the ride. Only Jacob knows what's going to happen! Speaking of... why is Locke going to kill Jacob? Is he going to hunt him down and kill him, or is he really just doing what Jacob wants him to do... remember Jacob said to Locke "Help Me". Perhaps it's a mercy killing that will release him from some weird limbo state he's in. OK, one quick prediction - Jacob will wind up being Jack in the final scene of the season. I have no reason why, but that would be pretty cool, wouldn't it?

Alright, what's with the compass? I'm figuring out a timeline here (which is getting more and more difficult on Lost). First Richard gives Locke the compass during his time flashes when he takes the bullet out of his leg at the plane. Then, when Locke flashes back to the 50's he confronts Richard and gives him the compass. The compass then travels through time normally. Richard visits Locke as a child makes him choose from several objects for the one that belongs to him. He chooses the knife and not the compass, so Richard leaves in a huff. Finally, 40 years later, Richard gives Locke the original compass when they are talking on the beach. A bit later, Richard gives time-traveling Locke the newer version of the same compass when they meet at the plane. Got it? Me neither.

I don't like Kate this season. She's not nearly as hot as she was in the past seasons... and now she's putting a wrench in the works while sit-there-and-do-nothing Jack finally starts to take some action. Why doesn't she want to create a variable that will change their past? That's easy: if they never land on the island she spends the rest of her life in jail alone.

That was the worst computer generated submarine I've ever seen. Stupid and unnecessary.

And the ship in the bottle? The Black Rock for sure.

One whole week until the 2-hour finale... which will no-doubt leave us with even more questions to ponder all summer. I'm kind of glad we're going to get a break, my brain can't take much more of this. Time for less intellectually stimulating TV - I'm gonna give my mind a much needed Big Brother coma.
