    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    very good observations regarding the black/white scenario...I remember vividly the emphasis the writers placed on black/white and Locke...i.e. backgammon, his eyes, and the treasure found in the corpse.

    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    Did anybody see the white car that drove by far in the distance when Ana and "the other" were sitting on top of the ridge? Talk about a visual flaw the editors missed. Of course I viewed the show on a 50" HDTV DLP Sammy at my friend's house so this may not have been noticable in SD.

    Saw 2

    Thought this movie was awful. The second half of the movie was a direct rip off of "The Shining." If I wanted to see women and children chased by psychos with knifes, I would rent that at Blockbuster. But the semi-creative ending was worth the $7.00

    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    Does anybody speak Chinese/Korean? I'd love to know what Jin said when running frantically towards Sawyer and Walt's Dad. The only word I heard was "others"

    Mandatory Employee Party...

    Ehh that was really just two seperate points that just happened to follow each other =) But, IMHO this is a perfect example of not having the same values that your work place wants you to have. I want to work. I work hard. I don't go to work to make friends. The corporation's values are not...

    Mandatory Employee Party...

    I wouldn't expect the most encouraging advice about my idealistic life to come from a messageboard dedicated to an upperclass hobby that not many people have the luxury to even think about. When profit is the bottom line, the truth can get twisted in many ways.

    Moreso than just escape the rat race, I'm looking forward to trying to better society by teaching a Political Science-esque class at a university. Money is not that large of a concern to me. Ever since I heard about Noam Chomsky my life has never quite been the same =)

    Mandatory Employee Party...

    It has about 60 employees. My main beef with not wanting to go is because I feel that this money could be spent in many better ways such as a large donation to a community kitchen or upping some of the employees wages. I certainly don't need a raise hike considering I live with my folks and can...
