Bag of Randomness

  • Sometimes it’s the littlest things in life that makes me happy – such as taking DogGeeding on a car ride and seeing his ears turn into a set of wings.
  • I saw a commercial yesterday for the Dallas U2 concert.  It’s a bit funny that the venue is always referred to as “New Cowboys Stadium.”  I bet a lot of tickets will have that name printed, but I wonder if or when an official name will be announced – sponsor or no sponsor.
  • New political bumper sticker – “I’ll keep my guns and ammo, you can keep the change.”  Hey, that even made me laugh.
  • Old but new politcal bumper stickers – I saw a vehicle with a new shiny W 2004 bumper sticker.  This picture doesn’t do it justice, but I could tell it was just placed on the car.  I made up a story about how that sticker got placed on there.  Basically, someone from The Island time traveled to 2009 but thinks it’s 2003.
  • I’ve taken some bumper sticker pics in the past but have forgotten to post them.  So here’s one that tells you to back off,
  • I think Governor Good Hair got caught up in the moment during his tea party appearance the other day when he hinted toward succeeding.
  • When I get together once a year with my old childhood and college friends for our scholarship meeting, I always feel like they are going to corner me and start an intervention.
  • I like the idea of high speed trains, but I have a feeling the airline industry isn’t fond of the idea.
  • I’m going to miss John Madden, and I’m thankful for the times he helped bring a father and son together.
  • I hope the Cowboys don’t open their new stadium like the Yankees did theirs.
  • I just learned that the Benny Hill music is actually called Yakety Sax.
  • It’s time for me to roadtrip to Abilene.
  • Grace

Random Lost Thoughts

  • Did anyone else notice that the show just started without a “Previously on Lost” segment?  That totally threw me off.
  • Young Miles found a key underneath a rabbit statue . . . an Alice in Wonderland reference?
  • Well, I was right about Dr Chang being the father of Miles.  Point, Geeding.  But then again, that really wasn’t a hard guess.  But I think we will find out that Dr Chang is a loving father and getting his wife and son off the island is some kind of precautionary measure.
  • Dr Chang was reading a polar bear book to baby Miles.
  • The look Miles gave his dad after he said he liked country music was priceless.
  • The Swan was being built in “hostile territory” which is in direct violation of “the truce.”  I just don’t see The Others not seeing that thing built, even if it’s “hidden.”
  • Why $1.6 million?  I see the connection to 16, but I need more.
  • Not only do Dharma students make learning fun, but they like to learn about Egyptian history.  But after reading a new theory, I think all this Egyptian stuff is really a red herring, and what we should be focusing on is Norse mythology.  How’s that for a curveball?
  • I used to work in the legal heirs department at one place and use to run across a lot of death certificates, and it was always worth a look to look at the cause of death when it was listed.  I never ran across one in which someone died because of a metal tooth filling flying out of a person’s skull, but that would have neat.  The only problem I had with that is that exit wounds tend to be quite large.  I know that from my days blogging for the CIA.
  • Where have you seen Bram before, you know that guy that was in the van talking to Miles?  He was one of the passengers of Ajira Airways Flight 316.
  • “What lies in the shadow of the statue?”  I dunno – shade?  Probably the bomb.
  • Every time I hear “circle of trust” I think you can milk anything with nipples.
  • Lots of Star Wars references, for instance, even the title of the episode was a tip of the cap to Star Wars – Some Like it Hoth.  But lets not forget about the movie Some Like It Hot with Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, and Jack Lemmon.
  • When Jack started to talk to Ben’s father about Kate it reminded me of a Jedi mind trick.
  • Sawyer is very Lando Calrissian.
  • Miles and Hurley are much like R2D2 and C3Po
  • And ‘the hatch’ or The Swan being built is reminding me of the Death Star.
  • Love . . . . .love will keep us together . . .
