Careful, buddy. There's a hotel lobby phone with your name on it.

To clarify my last post, I did expect an answer to what the island is, and I think we got it last night. I just expected that the answer would still be opaque. All the talk about the sublime, or the unknown, is correct. We won't see a further explanation of what the glowing cave is because it represents origin of…

" I can see how you could consider that a non-answer, but it's the only answer this show could give. LOST is a post-modern myth, and all myths come down to the sublime. The glowy cave is just a freaking symbol."

Meddle and Ummagumma by Floyd, for sure.

Everybody Loves A Clown… Sugar Shack… I could go on and on.

Don't forget it also launched Alyssa Milano into a long line of relationships with major league pitchers.

I'll stick to complaining about the lack of originality in AV Club posts.

I saw the first one
Eight times in the theatre.

Alicia Keys
I'm not the best judge of singing performances, but she bad last night. It felt like she would end and the judges would rip her apart ("I still like you, but that wasn't good, Dawg.")
