HELLLOOOO LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay...we'll get to the return of Michael in a second...or are we calling him Mr Johnson?...either way, he's not really the hot topic just yet....yet...
So Sun got off the island and had her baby....and we were watching Jin running around at seemingly the same time trying to buy a panda bear....for the ambassador of China....on an errand for his father in law....but Jin is dead...or at least buried....so how is this happening??????
This one is a head scratcher...or is it? Let's examine the clues.....
The first clue is the Year of the Dragon reference by the toy stoy owner...according to this:http://www.chinaorbit.com/china-culture/chinese-zodiac/year-of-the-dragon.html
the year of the dragon is 2000...This would be 4 years before Oceanic Flight 815 crashed on the Island...The second clue is that Jin has only been married for 2 months and he's working for Sun's father...So Jin's part is definitely happening PRIOR to Oceanic Flight 815....
Sun, as we all know, is pregnant on the Island in 2004.....as Juliet said "in 3 weeks, you will die"...do the math with the fact that, on the Island, women reach the middle of their second trimester and Sun is 15 weeks pregnant.... that means 5 months later she gives birth to Ji Yeon, so May 2005...we know she is part of the Oceanic 6, which for a recap I guess would consist of: Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sayid, Sun and Aaron......
Then there's the headstone, which has Jin's death as 9/22/ 2004, the day of the Oceanic crash....so he never made it off the Island.....and the fact that one sharp dressed Hurley is there...
So Jin's story is a flashback and Sun's is a flash forward.....My first thought was that's an easy way out and it really doesn't make much sense in terms of reasoning...why bother telling some lame-o story about Jin trying to acquire a teddy bear??? It's filler and pointless, unless it was meant to confuse...which it was...You get the build up that he makes it to the hospital just in time to deliver the panda and then you realize that his is the flashback and her's is the flashforward...SO Jin never makes it off the Island...and the way Sun is emotional would indicate that he is dead because certainly she would be more adamant about getting back to the Island...
A nice twist on the whole flashback/flashforward angle...employing them both in one episode....very sneaky, sis!
So here's a theory about how this might pan out:
Jack wants to get back to the Island, desperately
Hurley is being summoned by the ghost of Charlie to return to the Island...
Kate has Aaron and doesn't want to go back to the Island at all....
Sayid is working as an assassin for Ben to protect the Island...
Sun has a baby and is the only one thus far who appears to be living a healthy lifestyle, although she does have a baby that was concieved on a magical Island...
So maybe in the near future we will see that the folks who were left behind are in danger and it's possible that Claire and Jin are still alive...perhaps the Oceanic 6 were chosen randomly and now they need to go back to help their fellow LOSTIES....I don't know how this is going to play but damn, it's getting fun!!!
Now as far as Kevin Johnson is concerned, this will most likely deal with time travel....I think Ben put Michael and Walt on a heading off the Island that would put them into a different time..Think about how the helicopter took off from the Island with Sayid and Des and landed a day later...It's entirely plausible with this show that Michael ends up back in time, maybe a year or so and is "recruited", much like Sayid in the future.......REMEMBER, he's only been off the Island for about 30 days at the most....I highly doubt this is enough time to get a new identity and infiltrate a boat that's headed back to the Island....but maybe he does...It only took me 35 days to do the same back in 1996....but I had a lot more hair back then so that helped....what the hell am I talking about??!..........
Anyway, next week will set all of that straight...be prepared for time travel, alien abduction and the Watergate tapes....who knows how this thing will go.......
That's it LOSTIES......

HELLOOOOO LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tonight we have an all new episode of LOST entitled : Ji Yeon....I'll let the Korean name do the talking for me and let you figure out who the show is centered on....I also think the promos tell you as well.....I will spoil this for you: Jin's English is getting better by the day....I think the island can not only make a paralyzed man walk, it can also get you hooked on Phonics....
So today's update is a little informational, a little fun at the show's expense and the link at the bottom is a great interview with the show's Executive Producers, Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof...I highly recommend the read....
So, now for the fun...as you all know, I find pictures from the episodes from time to time and post them on the blog....I try to come up with something witty to say, in lieu of the actual dialogue...a "Mad Libs", if you will...So here are some photos from episodes so far, with a couple of attempts at humor...I will thank you all in advance for indulging me....
"That was a lovely dance....here is your dollar"
OR
"I'm sorry you didn't find it "sexy"...here is your dollar back."
There goes Ben...getting his ROLL on....
"Now, Sawyer, we'll need you to try to look seductive in this shot........"
".....Or maybe this would be better......."
"....Or this......"
..THAT'S IT!!!!!.......wait...can we get another button removed?!?!?!"
These were all courtesy of ONE episode: #4 "Eggtown"...
"What?!...I cannn't bloody hear yew....what?...You "just called to say I love you"...who is this?...Stevie?!...."
Okay...so they aren't all solid gold but I have to admit..everytime I read the Ben one I laugh....maybe I should have stopped there.... :)
One more thing: I HIGHLY recommend you guys check out the comments section at the bottom of each blog...Sometimes it's like a whole nother blog has been written...I love all the comments from the LOSTIES!!!!!!! That's what this whole thing was for: creating a forum where I lead with an extremely self biased iron fist...
Enjoy this link and enjoy tonight's show!!!

About dang time
"Look! I know it's raining and we're in the jungle in the middle of a mysterious island and you just saw a your ex lover's wife and she just appeared out of nowhere and then some whispers happened and she disappeared but she told you to kill some people who just arrived on the island and you appear to be upset about that, BUT really....how do you feel about ME?!?"
Helloooooo LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I first need to apologize...I started this blog last Friday and never got around to finishing it...I think it had something to do with being exhausted and trying to fend off a snow shovelling heart attack...my driveway is over 100 feet long and I had to dig my way to the curb in order for the pizza delivery guy to get his job done....so without further ado..here's the update...
It's not often I disparage this great show but as a fearless leader, sometimes I need to call 'em like I see 'em......If I were Simon Cowell giving a critique of episode 3:06 "The Other Woman", I would call it OBVIOUS.....and that's where I have my biggest problem...this show has never been as obvious as it was tonight, which leads me to be a little skeptical about what we're being told...
I guess the biggest thing I could site as obvious is Ben's insane infatuation with Juliet....we all saw that a mile away...The interesting line here was spoken by the therapist, Harper Stanhope( note the name as an anagram: Another perhaps) when she says : You look just like her.....methinks this is more in reference to Ben's childhood sweetheart, who gave him the doll on his birthday...her name escapes me at this point...
The next biggest case of obviousness is the fact that Charles Widmore, Penny's dad is behind the freighter folks showing up...The question now becomes: Is Ben being honest about not knowing why Widmore is going through all this trouble to find the island? Again, methinks not....I'm not sure where the word methinks got it's start but I like using it apparently....
I know there were some other things about the show that might be worth examining deeper but truthfully, I felt it said all it had to say....it really is that point in the season that some episodes feel like they are stretching the inevitable and shoring up some mythology or overstating some points...NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING....I think they are building up for some big show stopping stuff for the end of the season....I look forward to it all...
Speaking of which, it looks like they are going to air the already filmed episode 8, entitled "Meet Kevin Johnson" next week, instead of postponing it until they have all of their other episodes filmed....also the season finale will be a 2 hour event, aired over 2 weeks because Grey's Anatomy has the bigger pull aparrently and for LOST to stay on Thursday night, it needs to break up it's finale....whatever...I swear this show can't catch a scheduling break to save it's life...The first season it had a crappy lead in and a crappy after show...The second season everyone berated the reruns and it had an even crappier lead in ....the third season they try the old "Air 6 episodes and then take a 13 week break"....that didn't work....and now, the writers strike wreaked it's havoc on the scheduling...if it weren't such a great show, it would have been cancelled a long time ago....jeez...who put that soapbox there??.....
Anyway, let's go out on a high note....Fellas, this one is for you:
El Prez..OUT

Chipotle is my constant
"We have to save Johnny 5!!" 
Hellooo LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I go on a mini vacation with the wifey and no sooner do my feet step on Ohio soil, do I start getting the questions..."El Prez, where's the update?!"..."El Prez, what are you waiting on? Give us the dang update!"..."El Prez, you breath is funky.."..Ok so that last one was just the wife and no, she doesn't call me El Prez....but she knows enough now about time travel that she made me her default "constant"....As we learned in this week's episode, Desmond and Penny are definitely each other's lobsters....I mean, I've waited by the phone in my day, but 8 years?!?!...dang..
But enough about love and constants and blah, blah, blah....What's up with the time travel?!?!
Honestly, I don't know...I think this episode was a way of explaining Des' abilities, to forsee events in the future and to get us to a point where his story starts to make a little more sense..
You have to be really careful with having time travel as one of your main possibilities in your storyline...It can get pretty confusing...what intrigues me the most about it is how the writers are interjecting it sparingly...From what I can gather, when the hatch imploded slash exploded, Desmond was exposed to a MASSIVE dose of radiation....enough that he was sent through time, mentally....I say mentally because he didn't physically travel..he stayed on the island but his mind travelled back to a key point..
I really think I need to stop here with the time travel talk...I wouldn't be doing my full duty if I didn't really explore it more and try to give a better explanation...I stumbled in the past on this type of postulating and I don't want to say anything that may turn folks away from this great show...I truly believe it's not about time travel, but more about how the island has the ability to create certain phenomenon...I wouldn't put it past the show to take certain characters and allow them to "travel" on and off the island...say, certain people who have been there a lot longer and may know how to do said "travelling" without quite the headache Desmond received..
That being said, I found it extremely interesting that Penny's dad was bidding on a ledger that came from the Black Rock, the very ship that is on the island...
.....did anyone catch the name of one of the crew on the ship..The last name was Hanso, as in the Hanso Foundation...the very people behind the DHARMA initiative....it's all starting to tie together...slowly and surely, this whole thing is going to be one big ball o' yarn...or is it a tangled web we weave when we first practice to deceive....that's Sir Walter Scott...see? those LOST writers aren't the only ones who can be literate...or illiterate, in my case....
...Just one last thing about the time travel...it's more like the ability to see the future...a very detailed future, not one you can change but one you can predict...Faraday was seen tryng to guess cards back in Kate's episode..he got all but one and was very disappointed in his abilities....the question you need to ask yourself is: who else can do this? Ben? Locke? We know Desmond has it sparingly, mostly in dealing with Charlie's death...Is Locke's only about predicting the rain? Could Walt do it? Is that how we were able to see him in the jungle, way back in season 2? Remember backwards talking, soaking wet Walt? It should play out more into someone like Ben's favor...I think he has it down exactly and that's how he's able to stay one step ahead of everyone..the question is if Locke can catch up....
That's all for me...I'm sure this thing will unfurl itself on it's own....
Goodnight, my little LOSTIES......

The "Him" is revealed
Hello LOSTIES!!!
Well, well, well.......tonight's episode had some interesting turns in it....Once again we have a flash forward employed to cast an even larger shadow of questions...Let's start where we ended, with the reveal that Kate's "baby" was in fact Claire's baby, Aaron....also it's the "Him" Kate referred to at the end of last season's season finale, when she met Jack at the airport...
There is NO question that it isn't the same kid....who now appears to be around 2 years old?...I'm confused about the timeline but I'll give it my best shot:
They are on the island for 92 days or so....The baby was born about 30 days in, making it 2 months old, Island time....
They get "rescued" and Kate goes on trial immediately?? I don't think so...The fact that she told Jack that she's heard him tell "that story a dozen times"...that would mean some time has passed before her trial...let's say 6 months or so...That makes the baby less than a year old...which would put her trial ending at roughly 6 months or more later?
This is all a guess but I think the timeline is very important to the grand scheme of the story...because we know at some point Jack is going to grow a crazy beard, pop some pills and become suicidal....Matthew Fox indicated that that would only take a year and a half...so Aaron is a little less than 2 when Jack has the beard and is screaming about how he's tired of lying....so I guess it makes sense for now...
Which brings me to my next point: Jack perjured himself on the stand at Kate's trial....He said that 8 of them survived the crash and that Kate administered first aid and was a hero....We all know this is a lie but who concocted this story??? It had to be something they all bought into and it had to mean something signifigant to their well being for them to lie repeatedly...Are they being blackmailed or extorted or what??
I think this story will continue to unfold as the season wears on...but it still leaves us scratching our heads as to how Kate came about being the mommy to Aaron....What happened(or happens) to Claire?? We know she wouldn't just give her baby up...and we know Kate would never take a baby..she might kill an abusive stepdaddy but baby stealing doesn't seem like her kind of business....
Jack also lied about saying he didn't love Kate anymore....But then he got super weirded out about her referring to the baby and that he wouldn't get any "coffee" until he accepted the baby....What The Fudge is going on here?!?!?! I'm losing my marbles...I think the circumstances that dictated Kate getting Aaron are what's behind Jack's depression, suicidal tendancies and drug and alcohol abuse....For a hero and leader of men, Jack's a little off the ranch, you know?...Also, and he may not even know it or maybe he does, but Aaron is Jack's nephew, since Christian Shepard is Claire's father...from what we know so far, this has yet to be discovered by Claire or Jack.....interesting...
Then you have Miles trying to extort Ben for 3.2 million dollars...I loved Ben's reaction about not exactly being in the right place at the moment to make that transaction happen....
But that story will have to wait until Locke comes back and removes the hand grenade from Miles' mouth...DANG!!! That's some cold stuff!!!! But funny from a torturers perspective, I guess....
Last but not least, you got the case of the missing helicopter...It's apparently taking the long way around the island....It looks like next week we'll get a glimpse of what that's all about...One hint: It may or may not have to do with Time Travel.....just a warning...
On that note, I'd like to send you off with an interview conducted by Jeff Jensen over at Entertainment Weekly...There are some mild spoilers so read only if you want to know more about the show.....Like you don't want to know......
http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20179125,00.html
Just some weekend reading...again, DON'T READ if you want to be unspoiled....but they are kind of mild...nothing too revealing....I swear it's like some weird LOST angel and devil are sitting on each shoulder telling me to tell you what to do....very cartoon like...anyhoo...
Enjoy LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A horse named Whimsy...
" 'The Life and Times of El Prez'....This should be a great read!"
HELLOOOOOOOO LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once again, we find ourselves at the foot of another great chapter in the LOST saga.....Tonight's episode is entitled "Eggtown"....It may or may not be Kate-centric.....It may or may not have a twisted ending that will rival last week's head scratcher....It may or may not feature one smooth Sawyer and a box o' wine.....This bit may or may not be getting old....
After the last post, I was looking for something more whimsical to update you all on but with the serious dramatic turn that this season has taken, that whimsy is getting harder to find...however, if you know me by now, you know that I can whip up some whimsy...so here goes...
"Seriously?!? You WANT me to sign it 'Foxy' ??"
3 keys to a good time: Matthew Fox, roses and sweet, sweet karaoke....
Ok..that's all the whimsy I can manage....I don't know what's wrong with me...I gotta go out on a high note..
When asked how much time has passed from Jack on the island to Jack, bearded and drug addled, Matthew Fox seems to think the time line is somehwere around a year and half....So take that for what it's worth...I guess going crazy and pill popping doesn't take as long for some as it would others...
So to recap: Fall in love with Evangeline Lily all over again tonight..
"Eggtown", after a special Enhanced version of last weeks show, "The Economist"....
That's all folks....

The Orchid
Hellooooo LOSTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!
I submit to you today a THEORY. A time travelling, polar bear in the desert theory. What I am about to embark on is mind bending and scientific. It may be completely plausible or it may be completely plausible only in the world of LOST but it is a position that the writers which to take, therefore it becomes my responsibility to you to bring it to light.
Every week, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, the 2 driving minds behind LOST, host a podcast over on ABC.com...In these podcasts, they answer fan questions and expound very little on some things we may not have noticed or don't have full answers to and they shed a little more info on that particular item. Oftentimes they can be heard giggling like school children, either at our expense or at their own...either way, you have to sift through their ADD...well you don't, but I do...being El Prez isn't all wine and roses...
Anyhoo, this week they were asked HOW CAN THERE BE A POLAR BEAR IN TUNISIA? The desert of all places??? And especially a polar bear that's obviously from the DHARMA station, the Hydra???
Well, our creators alluded to the Island's "Special Properties"....They even mentioned that there may be particular places where these properties are stronger and therefore have displacement abilities...They didn't say "wormholes" but the allusion was there....The other thing they mentioned was the "Orchid video"....
Now the Orchid video was part of the Season 3 DVD special features....I have posted it below for you all to witness....After watching the video, I will try my best to explain WTF you just watched...
Now, after watching that I can only come up with the following points:
1. The #15 rabbit has in fact either duplicated itself or travelled back through time and space and has arrived upon itself....
2. The yelling of "Keep them away from each other!!!" signifies that if the same being comes in contact with itself, who the hell knows what will happen..an explosion? The apocolypse? Who knows?
3. This "doctor" has been in 3 seperate films, all under the names of someone different each time....remember the Swan film? Dr Marvin Candle. The Pearl video, he was Dr Waxman. This time: Dr Edgar Haliwax..this name doesn't show up in any google searches, so I would have to assume it doesn't mean anything more than it's just another alias....that involves candles and wax....
4. The woman in the background yells out that they "are still learning about"....and then it cuts off....so obviously this was new technology at the time...
Has Ben perfected it? Is this the reason for the passport and clothes and does it speak to his ability to get off the island?
The other part of this mystery reverts back to last week's point made by Daniel Faraday, the latest Island newcomer...He specifically told Frank to follow the same coordinates that they flew in on...Do not deviate!...This was interesting because it goes back even further to when Ben let Michael and Walt go and told them to stay on the bearing of 325....Was Ben honest with Michael about the bearing?
Is it possible that if you select a different bearing out of the island, you could end up in a different time? Could this explain the 70's style pimp suit Ben was wearing in the picture that Miles had? Is it possible that Michael went back to a different time? A time BEFORE the flight crashed?? Is this why Walt would now appear older?
I have to be honest with the last part...That theory comes from my good friend, DocArzt, who runs a very successful and informative LOST website of his own. The Theory was so good that I had to share, but I will not take credit for it...But boy! does it get the mind going or what????
That's it for today..I think time travel, wormholes and desert dead polar bears is enough for one night...
Later LOSTIES!!!!!

I submit to you today a THEORY. A time travelling, polar bear in the desert theory. What I am about to embark on is mind bending and scientific. It may be completely plausible or it may be completely plausible only in the world of LOST but it is a position that the writers which to take, therefore it becomes my responsibility to you to bring it to light.
Every week, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, the 2 driving minds behind LOST, host a podcast over on ABC.com...In these podcasts, they answer fan questions and expound very little on some things we may not have noticed or don't have full answers to and they shed a little more info on that particular item. Oftentimes they can be heard giggling like school children, either at our expense or at their own...either way, you have to sift through their ADD...well you don't, but I do...being El Prez isn't all wine and roses...
Anyhoo, this week they were asked HOW CAN THERE BE A POLAR BEAR IN TUNISIA? The desert of all places??? And especially a polar bear that's obviously from the DHARMA station, the Hydra???
Well, our creators alluded to the Island's "Special Properties"....They even mentioned that there may be particular places where these properties are stronger and therefore have displacement abilities...They didn't say "wormholes" but the allusion was there....The other thing they mentioned was the "Orchid video"....
Now the Orchid video was part of the Season 3 DVD special features....I have posted it below for you all to witness....After watching the video, I will try my best to explain WTF you just watched...
Now, after watching that I can only come up with the following points:
1. The #15 rabbit has in fact either duplicated itself or travelled back through time and space and has arrived upon itself....
2. The yelling of "Keep them away from each other!!!" signifies that if the same being comes in contact with itself, who the hell knows what will happen..an explosion? The apocolypse? Who knows?
3. This "doctor" has been in 3 seperate films, all under the names of someone different each time....remember the Swan film? Dr Marvin Candle. The Pearl video, he was Dr Waxman. This time: Dr Edgar Haliwax..this name doesn't show up in any google searches, so I would have to assume it doesn't mean anything more than it's just another alias....that involves candles and wax....
4. The woman in the background yells out that they "are still learning about"....and then it cuts off....so obviously this was new technology at the time...
