Weakerthans
I first heard Mr. Wodehouse mentioned in a song by The Weakerthans. His novels were described, among dozens of other objects, as being in a box of stuff the singer inherited when his father died. Deep stuff, I know, but I couldn't tell if the name drop was meant to be a smear or recommendation, so I…

Ice Cream Cones Cereal
Dear god, I hadn't thought of Ice Cream Cones Cereal in *ages*. My parents only bought us a box or two, but I remember sitting with my brother, dunking each one individually into milk. We treated it like a snack instead of a meal.

I meant "phish dicks". Goddammit, I've ruined *everything*.

Vegetarian, so no. Ask if I like fish dicks!

Here's another one: I heard Phish for the first time just a couple years back. I liked them.

I'm Going to See Them LIVE!
I'm twenty-seven years old, and have never, ever heard these guys. Unless they were playing in a department store or something, but I wouldn't have known it. An obnoxious girl in eighth grade bragged for a month straight that she was going to see them LIVE, and I thought, "If she likes…

Yay!
New Eels album? I'll be FIRST in line…. to seed it on my favorite torrent tracker.

Self-Titled Post
"Rancid's members released a strident self-titled LP in 2000"

I should also add that I'm currently listening to The Monroes' "What Do All The People Know?". They were probably such a one-hit wonders in the US that there aren't any haters, but if there are, fuck 'em.

I like your username, talkingstove. Can we be friends?

It's been years since I saw the Scary Movie flicks. I asked a girl out to see the first one, but my friend thwarted that plan by crashing his car into the stones lining her parents' property and we all had to help lift his car up to get it off the rocks. We went to see it anyway, but she stayed behind to survey the…

Sledge Hammer and Lost
That description of the end of the Sledge Hammer's first season sounds remarkably like how Lost's fifth season just ended…

Green Day: 2nd-Wave Pop-Punk
"no one does straight-up pop-punk better than the guys who blazed its dopey trail"

Well Locke managed to fall six stories and remain coherent while Jacob dropped in for a little pep-talk. So Juliet remained coherent enough (with half the bones in her body broken , though) to reach over and pound on the bomb. Dramatic license, I guess.

I just think it's funny that this is the third season finale in a row where Locke's never-rotting corpse has been a box.

Spoiler Alert!
The ending for Season 6: Jack is standing at a crossroads, like Tom Hanks at the end of Castaway. Ben, stands next to him. A plume of dust rising in the distance. As it gets closer, we see that it's a FedEx truck, driven by Desmond.

The Juliet flashback was meant to explain her changing her mind about her course of actions. But using a flashback like that, even if was short, did feel like something from S1 or S2 and a little lazy on the writer's part.

Also, Jacob's been bringing people the Island for a very long time. Perhaps Esau believes it is *his* birthright to control the destiny of the Island.

Iliana said, "Somebody else has been here," when she saw the disturbed ash and abandoned nature of the cabin. I think it was Esau who asked Locke to, "Help him."
