    Lost S04E12 - 15 May 08 - Theres No Place Like Home

    I think Jin's dead in the future. In the most recent episode, Sun says to her father, "Two men are responsible for my husband's death. You are one of them." She doesn't elaborate on who the second one is. My bet's on Ben, but it could be Michael instead because Michael and Jin were friends...

    grillin' time: what's your favorite grub?

    BBQ ribs all the way. Pork, country-style. I was born in Bangkok and we had a nanny named Noi. She gave our family this killer recipe for BBQ sauce. It's friggin fantastic and we guard it with our lives. My husband got it written down on our 1 year anniversary (the "paper" one :D) Simmer...

    1 month early, I am a dad!

    Depends. Our little one was sleeping through the night at 7 weeks. Of course, *I* being the awesome wife that I am, let my husband sleep when he went back to work at 4 weeks. Congrats on the little one :) Lovely name! It's all uphill from here, I'm afraid (barefoot, in the snow, backwards...)

    Tech Help Needed - Netflix Movie Player

    It's a corporate network but we are in a sort of unique situation. Our parent company doesn't have any access to our laptops; they used to, but we were all laid off. Then another company bought our bankrupt company. Before we were offered our jobs back, we all disabled PC Anywhere and Big Fix...

    Tech Help Needed - Netflix Movie Player

    Hi all :) I have a Netflix subscription and I wanted to be able to do the “Watch it now” feature. You have to download the Netflix Movie Player which is a plug-in for Windows Media Player. I did that and it was fine. But every time I try to watch a movie online, it gives me MediaError(1400)...

    What are you reading (Mar '08)?

    Dead Witch Walking by Kim Harrison. I call it "Buffy lit" - the genre of female demon-hunter types. This one is particularly good, typos notwithstanding. Witches, vampires, pixies, fairies, weres... it's kept me interested and is amusing. I like the world she's made up (science is outlawed...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#34)---12/03/07-'POWERLESS' Mid-Season Finale (or the End)

    That's why I think Nathan's really dead, not just mostly dead. You probably have to get the blood into him right quick to save him. Claire's all the way across the country, Adam's gone, and Peter doesn't have that ability that I'm aware of. I can't like Hiro any more. What he did to Adam...

    The Santa thread, Part 2 : Childhood revelations

    I resisted learning but eventually could resist no longer. We were living in Africa (Liberia) and Santa talked to us on the CB radio that was run by the Marines of the US Embassy. For some reason, I didn't think a thing of it (I was 5 or so). But then on Christmas Eve we were woken up by my...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#32)---11/19/07-'Cautionary Tales'

    It's quite possible that Elle is not the age she thinks she is. She's been living at the Company, she said, since she was 8 (IIRC). If he wanted to, Bob could have easily sped up her age by having birthday celebrations more often than usual (say every 8-10 months) or less often than usual...

    Looking for suggestions for good fantasy series to read

    I picked up the first book in that series based on a thread very much like this one, here. But I only got through about 50 pages or so. I thought it was very slow and it didn't grab my interest.

    Would you like cheese with that Whine? *RANT*

    I have to agree with you. I wonder if it's the way our society has become so entitlement-minded lately. It seems to me like nowadays there's a definite desire for people to get what they want NOW and to heck with anyone who gets in their way. No one wants to wait in line or be courteous to a...

    What are you going to be for Halloween?

    I'll be 31 weeks along so my options are limited. I bought a red t-shirt and will be painting the kool-aid man's face on it.

    Anyone seen 3:10 to Yuma?

    You're misunderstanding our use of the word "flaw." A "flaw" in a literary character - and a film character is still considered a literary character AFAIK - is not saying that the character is badly written or has something wrong with him that should have been fixed by the screenwriter or...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#28)---10/22/07-'Flight or Fight'

    I'm bored. I think they keep introducing new heroes/villains to keep viewers interested, but then they have whole episodes without certain cornerstone characters. So viewers are getting bored without seeing their favorites. I like Hiro the best and honestly don't care that much about Claire...

    Serenity Sequel possibility

    Is it so ludicrous to think that they can hire a new pilot, just like they hired Wash? I would prefer a new Firefly series continuing the story, rather than a new film.

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#26)---10/08/07-'Kindred'

    "Hi there! I need to report a bad guy running around. He's evil and he works for a company that finds people with magical powers, and he tags them then turns them loose again. His daughter goes to my school. Please arrest him, kthx!" ?? How exactly would that work? Buh? Ok I must be...

    Anyone seen 3:10 to Yuma?

    I liked it. And I'm a girl and I'm not that big on westerns - I went so that my husband got to see a western on the big screen, which is rare these days. I thought that a lot of the "stupidity" was actually reference to the fatal flaws of the primary characters. Dan Evans's fatal flaw was...

    How Come Every Cop Show Feartures a Chaotic Aligned Character?

    The show that the OP is talking about is called "K-Ville." Does anyone know what that means? We even asked someone who's from New Orleans and she had no clue. It's bugging us.

    Heroes Season [Volume] 2 (#24)---9/24/07-'Four Months Later'

    Isn't it possible that Nathan had a second illegitimate child, since he had one (Clare), and that's the flying stalker boy? How else would he know that she's a Hero too? As far as I know, none of them have been able to tell that others have or don't have powers. Love David Anders! I hope...
