Yes, I finally found the time last night, to catch up on the first two episodes of the new series of "Lost". Here was me thinking there was going to be a significant decline in decent storylines, but that doesn't seem to have been the case. Since the creators decided the show would end with a sixth and final series, and having mapped out their expectations for the remaining shows, things seem to have more cohesion. I like the way that they've introduced new characters at the start of each season, and this season's bunch are the biggest bunch of oddballs yet!
My wife still thinks the whole thing is a figment of Hurley's fevered imagination, combined with some experimental drugs. A while back, we saw the nuthouse he was in before the crash, and he seemed to have quite a few of the other characters sharing the same domicile. If they were all on the same medication, then that might be plausible. My theory that they were all dead seems to be losing ground, but you never know. That would explain new guy Miles, involvement in the "rescue" mission.
I could be insanely busy over the next month, so if I miss the odd post, don't fret. I'm at a crucial juncture in life. I'm almost at the end of a journey, but there are still a few twists in the road to navigate. Ten years ago, I don't think I could have done this, but I've changed. I'm much more self-assured, you might say. Sometimes I even suspect myself of being cocky, and it disgusts me. I try not to, but I work hard and feel I should get some recognition for it occasionally, even if it has to come from myself!
