Lol, its funny the way people's opinions differ I guess we love who we love and we see their stories in completely different ways

I don't know what you two are rambling on about. We all know that my interpretation of the show is the only right one, of course.

I kid; I kid! Still, I think it's interesting how much common ground there is between certain people on certain issues (I've agreed with you on a bunch of points, Brooke), and how much diversity exists on other issues (I don't agree with you on a bunch of other points!). The important thing is that we are discussing it. Good television draws out ideas, theories, and differing opinions; otherwise, we'd all be watching soap operas and 'Everybody Loves Raymond.'

See, if we can get along like this, all kum ba ya, why can't Flocke and Jacob just be friends?

Take a hint from this guy already, guys:



You guys and Richard probably knew him way back when.

20th century poetry class: Philip Larkin is my one true 20th century poetic love. Interested to hear what you think of him, if/when you get to him!

Start with This Be the Verse, for one hell of an introduction, and then move on to Aubade, which is gorgeous. He uses a lot of rhyming and strict meter, but he uses both brilliantly in my book. (He is kind of a love-or-hate thing though, so I won't be offended if you're not as taken by him.)

(Larkin was a misanthrope and an unhappy person, but a brilliant poet. Wilfred Owen, if you haven't touched on him already, also wrote some great stuff, as did Howard Nemerov. I like the formalists.)

Wouldn't 'Lost' just be great if Barney made a guest appearance? Possibly doing a 'friends' dance with the polar bear on Hurley's old golf course!

Please stop throwing things at me.

Also, Howard Nemerov's poem 'Because You Asked About the Line Between Prose and Poetry':

Sparrows were feeding in a freezing drizzle
That while you watched turned into pieces of snow
Riding a gradient invisible
From silver aslant to random, white, and slow.

There came a moment that you couldn't tell.
And then they clearly flew instead of fell.

... which I also love. To tie it to Lost: Whatever happened to the Hurley-bird?

Miles could see Barney too, couldn't he? I would love to see Miles vs. Barney. (I need to stop drinking so much caffeine.)

***Speculation... No actual spoilers***

Ok, so I HATED the last episode, I thought it was God awful until I watched it again. I'm totally convinced that Aaron is in fact the man in black, and Jacob is Jack and Kate's son thus making the two cousins. I'm not going to go in to Jacob too much, but go back and watch all of Flocke and Kate's scenes from Recon and it will make sense, I promise.

In season one, the physic told Claire that no one but her was to raise her child. That didn't happen, Kate raised him and now granny Littleton. Is the reason for this because there was never suppose to be a Flocke??? OR evil on the island ? If you watch the way Flocke treats Kate and Claire, it is almost like he was treating them as if they were his children i.e when he pulls Claire off of Kate, or was he treating them like his two mothers???

Then he brings Kate to the beach and tells her that he is STILL working through his crazy mother drama. Of course he is he just pulled his mother off of the woman that raised him for three years of his life. If you think about it why would he tell Kate anything? Because he feels he owes her because in his words she did what she had to do for Aaron or himself. Then he goes onto to talk about Aaron also having a crazy mother. Why would he say this? There was no point to this line unless he was trying to show the audience something. I think he was putting it together for us right there, he's Aaron, he's still the one with the crazy mother. Oh, and the way he tilted his head when he saw Kate for the first time in Sundown also caught my attention... Go back ad watch these scenes but imagine them as if Aaron were Locke and it will add up.

Now, I have no idea when Aaron came back to the island, perhaps he is in the locked room on the sub, who knows, but I am absolutely convinced he is Aaron. Perhaps Jacob and cousin Aaron flash back to the beginning of time, but no one else does leaving them the islands leaders.

Now, with Jacob. I don't have a lot to back this one up, but it is a hunch. I think Kate is preggers right now with Jacob. Her and Jack had sex right before they left and it has really only been a few days or weeks. We already know Kate most likely is not a candidate, but she is protected. Her number is 51 and she was not scratched out. Maybe she is not a candidate, but her son, Jacob wanted her protected for obvious reasons. This would also be why he is so happy and Aaron is so unhappy. Jacob would have been raised, at least for a time by his two loving parents while Aaron was stuck with crazy Claire mom thus making him the bitter man he seems to be today.

I know there are some holes and I am more convinced of my first theory than my second, but I am almost certain I am right about MIB being Aaron...Anyhoo, have a pleasant Thursday.
