How many Wuh wuh wuhs?

If you haven't been living in a bomb shelter for the last two years you know that the TV Digital Switchover thingumabob was just around the corner. Yet the first thing our newly appointed government does is subject us to yet another date change and moves it back until June. I mean, how many people still use rabbit ears on their 1970 tv? How many TVs from the 'coaxial less' era even work?! Can't we all just go buy grandma a $10 salvation army special with a cable jack on it and save us six more months of digital tv preparedness?

Oh well, at least we can laugh along with this spoof right? Oh, and someone give this lady an Oscar because she deserves it!

An oath with a twist

Ladies and Gents, our Constitution in art form. Never thought I'd say those words (or type them) but there you go. Now hopefully President Obama can live up to the hype we are throwing down because he has a very tall order ahead of him but I'm along for the ride and I hope you all are too.

Will Jack ever stop being so EMO?

Hello. My name is Dave and I'm a LOST addict.

I have to say I pretty much looked like Jack over there after what seemed like the longest break between seasons ever but I made it. (Even kicked my Oxycontin habit as well...) But after season 4 becoming my favorite of the shows history, can LOST keep it up for another two years? Heck one year?

My friends, that answer is YES. After watching (and re-watching) the first two episodes of Season 5 I can honestly say my head is spinning trying to grasp the new mythology, references, hidden messages and even magic dungeons that apparently old white women like to hang out in. Oh and did I mention time traveling heroes? (No, not that horrible OTHER show on TV) Fear not fellow Losties because if you haven't realized it's a Sci-Fi show wrapped with a warm character drama blanket (Locke, smoke monsters, moving islands and ghosts of Ana Lucia anyone?) then what have you been watching for the last 4 years?

Sure I had to have a 20 minute conversation explaining the logic behind the time warping elements to my father (and reassure him that this won't turn into Back to the Future: Part 4 but Faraday is quite Doc Brownish, no?) and a few people didn't remember the old lady was Desmond's Time Nanny who told him you can't change the future it course corrects itself, but that is what makes LOST so wonderful; it never ceases to destroy your preconceived crackpot theories and just keeps punching your logic center and saying "Eh eh! Now what huh buddy? What else ya got for me?" and that just makes us all talk about it more and come up with new and equally ridiculous theories that have a 99% chance of joining the crew of the SS Failboat.

I didn't want to give a synopsis of the two episodes because you can go to 11ty billion other sites and read recaps but I just wanted to give a giant sigh of relief and hope that you too can join me in embracing another sure-to-be-riveting-and-oh-so-frustrating season of the most engrossing show ever to be decoded into pictures by my retinas.

Now if Kate would just become interesting again and Jack could stop, well being Jack for 5 minutes all would be perfect with the world.

So readers, what do you think of LOST so far?
