I keep forgetting to congratulate bk on snagging Bruce Villanch for the benefit.

***** EVEN MORE LOST SPOILERS *****

Reading over some of the blogs that DR Jennifer linked to, it occurred to me that Jack's flashforward mainly indicates that he isn't coping with escaping from the island, not that he is necessarily feeling guilty of being of three to four who managed to escape. It could well be that everyone made it safely off. If I'm recalling Kate's reactions clearly, it could be construed that she has just grown weary of Jack's downward spiral. As Ben had said, "What do you have to go home to, Jack?" It looks like he spoke the truth. Jack could be doomed to suffer the same sort of post-war trauma that so many veterans experience and he's medicating his pain with drink and drugs. And in his suffereing, he believes that the one true way to relieve his pain would be to return to the island.

I hope I don't stay obsessed like this for the next nine months!

But did he snag Guy Haines? That's what I wanna know!

Yes, I'm wondering if it could be Claire and Aaron.

*And was Jack's ex-wife - or whoever that was who came to see him in the hospital - pregnant?

Yep, she looked that way to me.

Does anyone ever wonder what this show must budget on retaining fees for the cast members?

***** SUCH LOST SPOLIERS LIKE YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE *****

Ya know, today would be the perfect day to chat out loud about the couple of HHW'ers who haven't caught up with the show.

Like that DR Singdaw--who does he think he is anyway?

Especially people like Rose & Bernard, who disappeared for a year.

Thanks, Jennifer, for that link. Here's the most interesting thing I've found there so far:

Hoffs/Drawlar (funeral parlor) is an anagram of . . .

Flash Forward.

Next time you see Joanne, ask her why she hogged all the scenes from Allison in COUNT THREE AND PRAY.

Maybe she just outsneered her since our beloved Allison is a true graduate from the Sneering School of Acting.

Add me to that list of unconcerned nonviewers. From all I gather it sounds like much ado about nothing and disconnected attempts to pretentious symbolism, rather like TWIN PEAKS.

Joanne played a hillbilly with a definite Method bent....she wouldn't start sneering for a couple years until FROM THE TERRACE.

Before the performance there was a disclaimer to the audience that there would be loud music, platform shoes, and spandex.

From K-Mart, circa 1974?

As someone who personally knows both the Log Lady and the one-armed man, believe me, Lost is head and shoulders (and possibly one arm) above Twin Peaks. No comparison whatsoever.

I glanced at a couple of the Lost Spoilers and saw the name Ben and was confused for a moment. I don't watch the show and wondered what the H*ll you all were talkin' about.

So...are you saying that those of "us" who are talking about it so avidly and with great admiration of it cannot possibly have any taste when it comes to such things.

Although, since you are a non-viewer, it wouldn't be prudent (yes, I said "prudent") to be dismissive of it.

I get all I need of this program from this site. A lot of people I like and respect cannot miss it. I can. And do.

George, I think TLT's WHOREHOUSE (which opens in two weeks) has only four Aggies, too. Amazing that any college can win the "Big Game" with a football team of four players.

And why are two local theaters (within 30 miles of each other) both suddenly dragging out WHOREHOUSE when there so many other musicals that never get done locally?

That's one of life's imponderables. $:-\$

This FIREBRAND OF FLORENCE dilemma continues. After I got screwed over by the used seller on Tuesday, I sent the President of the Kurt Weill Foundation an email asking if he could help me out with a discount on the edition ($425 for subscribers and $600 to nonsubscribers). While I would love to have the entire Weill Edition, I would rather purchase only the ones I really really want. He told me he would get back to me. No word yet.

So, I found a copy on AbeBooks, and I've sent trhe vendor two emails now asking if it's the single orchestra score or the complete 2-volume edition I want. That was two days ago and still no response. Is the universe telling me to forget about this?

However if the producers of LOST were suddenly to cast Miss Carroll Baker in a role, I would start watching again....in February.
