this is cool!
i found out what was up w/ desmond making that lightning rod out of the golf club.. 'k....so.... remember when hurley was going back to the beach and he ran into desmond and was like, "dude!
you're nekkid, get some clothes!
Another time, while we were on Oahu, we took a back road back to our beach house (rental) and saw the airplane prop, used in the show.
I have some pictures, and will find them and upload.
This is the airplane. It was in a parking area, behind a cyclone fence.........other filming equipment was there too.
This is at Kualoa Ranch, right by where Hurley made his golf course.
There are lots of old World War 2 bunkers at the ranch. This is one of them. I am sure they use them on Lost.

Now go figure out why 'the others' showed Sawyer that they were on a second island... when they have always seemed to have been able to 'walk' from one encampnent to the other - sans boat (which would be needed to traverse the water.)
That mystified us too.
Of course Sun is pregnant by her lover, who took a leap out the window.
Where is Claire getting diapers and clothes for her baby? Why isn't Hurley losing weight?
When we were in Hawaii last December, we toured the movie sets at Kualoa Ranch on Oahu, and they showed us lots of the sets for Lost. That valley is so recognizable, and has been in lots of movies and TV shows, Windtalkers, Magnum PI, Hawaii Five-O, and more I can't think of at the moment.
This show is so weird, that I am about to stop watching. I think the writers don't even know, and are making it up as they go along, in true soap opera style. Then new writers will come on who will write storylines that don't work because of the other events that they aren't familiar with..............just like on soaps.
All I can say is that if it doesn't start to make some kind of sense soon, we are quitting.
the thread on the wt$ and the illuminati got me to think, and since i have to write a term paper in my sociology class i thought why not research some conspiracy theories.
please help be listing some of your favorite ones.
i only ask that you not tell me about 9/11, or the kennedy clan assassinations.
the most disgusting one, in my opinion, is that the Holocaust didn't really happen.
so often, you see people all up in arms because it is revealed that an individual is "gay".
do you really care??
personally, i don't.
I don't care, but I think if one of my children were gay, I would care............only because it is a hard life for them, but getting better.
hi everyone, just wondering what your thoughts are on people that say they are born gay?
ive heard that this isnt actually possible, and that there is no scientific backing to it, im personaly not gay but i was just wondering what some of you think on this matter, and if you have anything to back it up with, thanks,.
.
I do believe some people are born gay. I have a niece who is gay and I was not surprised when she came out to the family. She always dressed and acted like a boy, and even wanted to be called "Joe" when she was 12.
I also think some people have traumatic things happen in their lives that lead them to being gay. It's just a thought, and I have no proof.
just wanted to run an informal poll to see how "effective" or hopelessly "ineffective" the borg tract assimilation drive has been.. i for one, have not received the tract, and i live in densely populated development.
did anybody get it left in their doors/mailboxes?.
We were gone for the weekend and came home Sunday night to find one inside our front door screen.
The funny thing is, no one EVER comes to our house. We had gone camping and our truck and trailer were not there, so they probably felt safe leaving it. I show it to people who come over (my kids) but haven't opened it. We just laugh.
naperville, dekalb, joliet......... il.

I think that's it.
is this weird, or what?
the jw that works for me just gave me a gift for boss' day... albeit a little belated... but i was shocked!
I don't recall that JW's make an issue of Boss' day or Secretary's Day. I had friends that worked as secretaries and they always looked forward to the lunch that day, each year.
we all had those moments in childhood that were pure magic.
moments that were full of wonder that brought us great joy.
sometimes those memories are connected with music or certain fragrances.
My grandparents took all of their older grandchildren camping every summer, for two weeks (1950's and early 60's)............sleeping in tents, cooking over the campfire before they got a Coleman stove, and I remember being about 7 when I got invited to go. Those were the best summers of my life. My cousin, Sharon, was 3 years older than I was so she was always there, and was my best friend my entire life. My grandparents were old, in their 70's, so I always think they were amazing to do that at their ages back then. There were always 6 or 7 of us to ride herd on.
Grandma cooked such great food, in huge volume, and I still marvel at the pancake eating contests she allowed between my brother and my boy cousins. Grandma snored so loud that one year someone put a sign on our tent, complaining about how loud she snored, complete with a sketch of sawing logs. Whenever she said she was going to bed, Sharon and I and the girl cousins would run for the girl's tent. We had to get to sleep before she did.
We went to Twanoh State Park, on Hoods Canal, in Washington State. We had hiking trails, swimming with a raft and diving boards, boat rental, paddle board rentals, a great playground, with swings, slides and a merry go round thing, all those things are gone now because of lawsuits I think. When it rained, we would pack everything up and go to one of the outdoor kitchens, that were really open sided cabins, built forever ago by the CCC. We would build a huge fire in the fireplace and grandma would cook over the wood stove at one end, and the cousins would play games. Later they built a tennis court and when we were teenagers, we would have dances on the tennis court until one of the adults in our camp would come and make us go back to camp. We were JW's but they were pretty easy on us, for the most part.
Great memories.
i have recently been the recipient of a 30 plus minute presentation via phone of the melaleuca home based business opportunity.
what i would like to know is there anyone who uses the board that has any experience with them.
they are based out of idaho falls, idaho and before i even contemplate getting involved i intend to do some heavy researching all you comments to this effect would be greatly appreciated.
I've been in network (multi-level) marketing for many years. I've been quite successful at it.
At first I worked hard and made about $100 a month, but it increased over time. Now I do very little and make about $1000 or more each month. It's all residual income. I need to order $100 a month to qualify for my commission check but I sell all that I order and use very little of the products myself. If I did more I could make a lot of money.
My company is not Melaleuca, but I know of them. It's a good company with good products.
As with all companies using this type of marketing, the prices are way up there, so I buy most of my nutritional supplements at Trader Joe's. But my company has a tea that keeps you regular, that I won't be without, and a toothpaste that is homeopathic in nature, and prevents gum disease. I sell tons of it to dental clinics all over the country. I don't go looking for anyone anymore. Everyone comes to me, via my website.
