Lost in My Own World
As regular readers of this space know, I'm often the last to the party when it comes to pop culture phenomena. Two years passed between the first time I heard the phrase, "You'd really like Aqua Teen Hunger Force" and my first viewing. (Three days passed between my first viewing and my relentless overquoting of the "Universal Remonster" episode, but that's another story.) The Family Guy and Arrested Development bandwagons had left the station long before I tried to jump aboard. (I don't have a Nielsen box, so don't blame me for their demise.)
What does this have to do with anything?
Thursday night, I was in the video store, trying to keep myself from renting Apocalypse Now and thus having to finish my Mr. Smith review, when it crossed my mind to think, "I should finally give the Lost DVDs a try."
So I've been watching Lost. And if I didn't need a paycheck and occasional Mountain Dew injections, I may well have been watching Lost nonstop since Thursday night. It's that freaking good.
Remind me of this next time something great comes along. I'm trying to cut my slack time down to 2 months.

I can't believe how good the show is! At least you had the sense to not give in to my idea of going out and getting another Lost DVD last night. ;)

Don't feel too bad, I took forever too. I blame the free rentals at Hollywood Video that got me hooked.

Let me ask you this: youever notice how much Sawyer looks like Kid Rock? Kind of pushes him into a whole new realm of skeez.
