LOST TV: one week away from the beginning...

More thoughts about "Across the Sea"
I was sitting there looking out to sea, enjoying the episode with all the adrenaline and excitement as per usual, until Jacob lost his cool, and threw MIB into the "light-saber" cave. This made me incredibly sad for some reason. Is the light partly a last experiment by a dieing Tesla based on his earlier Philadelphia experiments? Maybe like a living, sentient creature, the islands heart projects its love for mankind..or peace, or understanding? As the great Elvis Costello once sang.."what's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?"...each of these things exist in each human being, and we all want more.I believe a game is involved..on a much grander scale, with Tesla's ghost, high tech, underground labs, like in the Truman Show, and somewhat like a huge, massive video game..
I also have been looking closely at the looms and tapestries in a few of the episodes..conjuring up thoughts of the mythological "Loom of Destiny", where the WIB could have woven the destinies of the 2 boys into the tapestries, sealing their fates. I believe the island is basically good, and gives visions, secret knowledge and perhaps even superhuman powers to the inhabitants of the island as it chooses. We never actually see WIB destroy the village , like Anikan in Starwars 5, after his mom died, or fill up the hole. The island came to mind while watching a recent episode of "Ghosthunters", where they check out some caves on Easter island. It was full of ghosts and power spots along with all those awesome statues.I strongly feel that the light/source/heart is or creates the EM, and the electromagnetic energy could be releasing a sound wave that can control humans in some way. As well as moving the island through time and space. I once thought it was a huge alien space ship, under all the grass, rocks and trees and would fly around.
What if the island lay in a small pool of water in Tunisia? Has miniaturization been debunked? No, I am afraid the plotline has transcended beyond goo and evil. But not for the Losties. Their very lives depend on the " scale inside each of us.." as Dogen illustrated, that that determines our core behaviour toward evil side or for good. And the 2 brothers are judges and juries, watching everything.: Has the 2 island theorey come up, where people are sent back and forth from island group to identical island group, experimented on, with mind control waves pulsing in audio form from the many EM pockets throughout the Island? : John Milton wrote in 1644 " Good and evil we know in the field of this world grow up together almost inseparably; and the knowledge of good is so involved and interwoven with the knowledge of evil, and in so many cunning resemblances hardly to be discerned, that those confused seeds which were imposed upon Psyche as an incessant labor to cull out, and sort asunder, were not more intermixed.":
In a poem called Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came" by Robert Browning the very first few lines seem very similar to our Flocke/Mib...:::
"My first thought was, he lied with every word, that hoary cripple, with
malicious eye Askance to watch the working of his lie On mine, and mouth scarce able to afford Suppression of the glee that pursed and scored It's edge, at one more victim gained thereby. What else should he set for, with his staff? What, save to waylay with his lies, ensnare All travelers who might find him posted there And ask the road? I guessed what skull-like laugh Would break, what crutch 'gin write my epitaph For pastime in the dusty thoroughfare,... As when a sick man very near death seems dead indeed, and feels begin and end The tears and takes the farewell of each friend, And hears one bid the other go, draw breath Freelier outside ("since all is o'er," he saith "And the blow fallen no grieving can amend";}"
Michael Shermer, in his book, "The science of Good and Evil", quoted Charles Darwin, in his quest to discover the birth of morality in our society, ..."How odd it is that anyone should not see that all observation must be for or against some view if it is to be of any service." Like the yin/yang symbol, each side hold a little of the other within them and must exist in order for the other to be a part of the circle. Each holds the other in check.

"If You Make The Island , They Will Come!..."

Was that the disembodied voice of Walt Disney? I have been a Lost Fan only a couple of years, but it has been awesome and I think its a new trend on TV and in entertainment. To try and relate to as many of the audience as possible, by trying to give everyone what they want. I'm sure with the next few years, all this amazing intelligence and excitement generated by the best show ever on TV,,,we'll start seeing repercussions and rippling effects. This is just the beginning of a new era, and as Lost Fans..we are in store for a whole slew of new "Lost" material to sort through..movies, video games, comic books, it has only just begun...And as far as what we know and what has been left out so far, I believe we're on a need-to-know basis, and much more will be revealed in the next few episodes, the finale and the next few years.
Along time ago, a few theories about DI food led to a humorous theory about the Apollo bar. As the candy bar may not be as important to the show as some things, like the game "Mouse trap" or Locke's brother, here's an idea, I call, 'Jacob and the Chocolate Factory'...
Deep within the island lies a vast complex, run by Jacob. In a section called Dharma Initiative Food-Research and Development, is a factory that makes only one candy. Imbued with the subtle essence of the island. Using ingredients grown in and around the island, with an unusual amount of natural ingredients which can enhance one's abilities, tapping in to any latent super-natural talents within the candy consumer. The Apollo bar, if eaten in huge quantities, like say by Hurley, perhaps; can give that person a few super powers. Hence its name, and origin are revealed. Secretly sold worldwide, the candy bar helps the island find its chosen people.
Like the old, silent films "The Perils of Pauline", "Lost"has kept us coming back for years. Each episode ending too soon. Like the final episode of "House" this evening, Hugh Laurie's character, Dr.House saw his dream girl, "Cuddly" walk into his house and thought she was only in his imagination. She was truly there, because he had planned it. He had fallen for her, and she fell for him, eventually; through hours of intense seduction by the good doctor, and perhaps years of desire. Jacob has his white lies, and MIB has broken, and will probably break more of the rules of the current game being played between the two brothers. The pieces are chosen, years through space and time, heartbreak and obsession, trial and error, freewill vs. choice, good vs. evil, even love vs. hate.... The Endgame has arrived...
Is Jacob a Sasquatch?

Or a werewolf in sheep's clothing? He seems to have really extraordinary speed and agility as seen in "Ab Aerterno", when he comes out of nowhere on the beach and starts punching Richard. And when he threw his brother, not a little guy, around like a bag of marshmellows. When we found out he had an ocean front foot house...well, could he really be the fabled, legendary "Bigfoot"?
