More From Comic Con '09




In the air since 1979 and over 30 years of airline safety. So are we to believe the "reset" Jack talked about worked and the crash never happened?






Again this video would point to the crash never happening in that Hurley says he has had nothing but good luck since winning the lottery. If this is true and we are going with the crash never happened than are we to believe that the last 5 seasons of LOST never happened? Guess you can definitely say TPTB over at LOST certainly are Crisis On Infinite Earth Fans.

Our final pairing in this half of the competition finds a number 7 seed from season four, The Economist.





In the first round it made it easily passed Raised By Another and then in a surprise upset made it through by beating The Shape Of Things To Come.

It's Not March But ...

It's time for another DAG Project Field of 64. This time we are going to find out which is


The Best

LOST Episode


EVER!


I have already cut the original 64 entrants into the sweet 16. Here they are separated by seasons but in no particular order:







How could we do a field of 64 for best episode without the one that started it all? The two hour pilot is of course in the sweet 16.







Also from the first season is "Outlaws"



"Walkabout"







and "Exodus" is presented in it's two hour entirety as one entry





Moving on to the second season we have "Two For The Road"





And the two hour season finale "Live Together, Die Alone"




Season 3 presents us with "The Man From Tallahassee"






"The Man Behind The Curtain"




"The Brig"




"Greatest Hits"




The Season 3 finale "Through The Looking Glass" another two hour episode that fills just one space in the brackets.





Season 4 offers up "Cabin Fever"






"The Constant"




"The Economist"




And the two hour finale "There's No Place Like Home" only parts 2 and 3 are considered here.



The only episode from season 5 to make it to the sweet 16 is the two hour finale "The Incident".





I will be giving them their seeds and putting the first group of combatants up in a few days. As it was the last time, I will also post polls at the top of the page for people to vote for their favorites. When I post the field of 64 pairings I will also list the episodes they beat to get to the sweet 16 so you can see if some of your favorites were also included in the 64 best episodes ever.

True Confessions




We're stuck in the summer doldrums, as far as LOST is concerned, during this off season hiatus (the last one we will have to sit through and I am not so sure how I feel about that) and with Comicon '09 a few more weeks away and my next idea for a field of 64 still to be sorted out, I felt I owed my readers something entertaining. So with that, I will treat you all to a story that is unfortunately true. It would have to be, I mean there is no reason to make up what you are about to read. Some of you know the story already and to you I ask that you either suffer through yet another retelling or simply go away and leave me with what dignity I still have. Those of you that do not know the story, please to enjoy as I tell you the story of "Chris and the self imposed Dirty Sanchez!"

A few winter seasons ago I found myself home alone with a day off from work and nothing much to do. I was lounging around the apartment while tooling around the information super highway. I was two cups of coffee into my day when I felt the first grumblings of a sweet AMS (Awesome Morning Shit) and I decided I would kill two birds with one stone and refill my coffee mug on the way back from the commode. I dropped off my coffee mug in the kitchen and took my normal position for a nice movement. It was quite uneventful and after a few moments my crap sausages were completely deposited into their watery grave. I then began the paperwork part and a little background info is needed here: I am usually a three wipe and done guy, unless there are extenuating circumstances i.e. the brown apple splatters - in which case it might just be easier to get in the shower and deal with than going through wipe after wipe to try and clean that up. But as I said this was an uneventful evacuation and after the first wipe I did the wipers version of "spell check" and inspected the paper and found that it was unmarred by the second wiping. Wow I almost had myself a "Walk Away" awesome indeed.

After I flushed the fetid tootsie turds I made for the kitchen to fetch myself a fresh cup of coffee. I added cream and sugar, stirred, sample taste, ahhh, perfect, and started back toward the computer. A few steps removed from the kitchen I found myself the recipient of a wriggling ass itch. You know the kind where it makes you do a little dance before you even get to dig in and it feels like something is borrowing its way into your rectum. Well, I got that approximately 10 seconds before I got one of those itches across the tip of my nose that is 49% painful and 51% itch. You know the kind that makes your eyes water in the few seconds it takes you to get there and scratch it. Well, I had one hand full with a hot cup of coffee so there was only one solution it would seem. Use my free hand to scratch both offending areas. Which I proceeded to do.





Now, let me tell you what really happened in the bathroom: When I wiped the first time, two entire squares of TP remained in my colon and formed a barrier between the second wiping attempt and the horrid mess that so needed that second (and a third) wipes attention. I dug between my cheeks with a vengeance attempting to rectify the dreaded crack crickets that already had me doing the St. Vida's' Dance across the living room. So much so that on the way back towards my face I didn't notice that through my boxers I had managed to get a finger full of fecal matter and proceeded to try and clear up the nose itch that had me ready to sneeze, spit, and spill my coffee all over the living room.

I immediately began to wretch and had to make my way back to the kitchen and I will leave the rest to your imagination!

U2 Tribute

U2 paid tribute to the passing of Michael Jackson during their first concert on the 360 degree tour which took place in Barcelona on June 30Th. Not the greatest of quality but it it is kinda memorable nonetheless. If you want to skip the "Angel of Harlem" part fast forward to around the 3:25 mark when the MJ part begins.
