The One and Only Stephen Joseph Thread
Stephen Joseph replied to Stephen Joseph's topic in Brandon Truitt
This thread sucks -
Nah, I dont think it contradicts. He was rushing, 20 seconds left. If Locke had missd that error, than fine you have a point, but it was a plot device plain and simple. EDIT: Who says time is moving forward on the island? It is certainly within the realm of physics for time to in fact stand still. If you believe that the universe is in fact a series of infinite stills (like animation) where the observer (soul) journeys through each, then time in fact can go forward or reverse. Yeah this is quirky quantum physics, but it is being discussed. There are massive problems with time in the quantum verse. I said before that I believed there to be electromagnetic forces at work. I now believe these electromagnetic forces are: 1) Mucking with Time 2) Mucking with Lostaways Memories 3) Mucking with Physics Laws I may have to back away from nanobots in favor of a more EM theory, and that because of these unique properties, our lostaways are experiencing a reality without time. Remember, Locke's Watch? Not working. Please refer to the "Double Slit" experiment which shows how information in the present affects our perception and memory of the past. Horses, Pigs, Dead Fathers...

Yup, I think thats right Spiff

1) I don't think Locke and Eko will be enemies. They'll be good foils, but hell, they're working together . Why else would Eko help Locke complete his temple? 2) Dad? --- Badass way to go on hiatus. 3) Note: In the film, what caused the "Incident" was not failing to enter the numbers, but communicating with the outside world via the computer. 4) Electromagnetic fields + Blast Doors. You do the math. The conclusion is obvious. 5) The preview was a smashup of the next 3 episodes. 6) Mr. Eko also stands his ground against whatever Locke stood against. General thoughts: 1) Our survivors disconnect from their reality is waning. Sayid talked to Kate about what he had seen. Hurley's in the open about the numbers. I imagine Jack will talk about it soon. They're figuratively waking up. 2) Isn't it amazing that with so little dialogue, Mr. Eko has replaced so many characters as THE most intriguing guy on the show. 3) Swann was a well-known remote viewer. Somehow, whatever is in the brains of our lost-a-ways finds itself on the island. Mental Projection? ESP? Something buggy. Note comment #4. EM does muck with our brainwaves. Meaning: healed by Jehovah, or Jehovah will support the son of Amon, and his successor on the throne of Judah (2 Kings 22:1; 2 Chr. 34:1) His history is contained in 2 Kings 22, 23. He stands foremost among all the kings of the line of David for unswerving loyalty to Jehovah (23:25). He "did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the way of David his father." He ascended the throne at the early age of eight years, and it appears that not till eight years afterwards did he begin "to seek after the God of David his father." At that age he devoted himself to God. He distinguished himself by beginning a war of extermination against the prevailing idolatry, which had practically been the state religion for some seventy years (2 Chr. 34:3; compare Jer. 25:3, 11, 29). In the eighteenth year of his reign he proceeded to repair and beautify the temple, which by time and violence had become sorely dilapidated (2 Kings 22:3, 5, 6; 23:23; 2 Chr. 34:11). While this work was being carried on, Hilkiah, the high priest, discovered a roll, which was probably the original copy of the law, the entire Pentateuch, written by Moses. When this book was read to him, the king was alarmed by the things it contained, and sent for Huldah, the "prophetess," for her counsel. She spoke to him words of encouragement, telling him that he would be gathered to his fathers in peace before the threatened days of judgment came. Josiah immediately gathered the people together, and engaged them in a renewal of their ancient national covenant with God. The Passover was then celebrated, as in the days of his great predecessor, Hezekiah, with unusual magnificence. Nevertheless, "the Lord turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah" (2 Kings 22:3-20; 23:21-27; 2 Chr. 35:1-19). During the progress of this great religious revolution Jeremiah helped it on by his earnest exhortations. Soon after this, Pharaoh-Necho II. (q.v.), king of Egypt, in an expedition against the king of Assyria, with the view of gaining possession of Carchemish, sought a passage through the territory of Judah for his army. This Josiah refused to permit. He had probably entered into some new Alliance with the king of Assyria, and faithful to his word he sought to oppose the progress of Necho. The army of Judah went out and encountered that of Egypt at Megiddo, on the verge of the plain of Esdraelon. Josiah went into the field in disguise, and was fatally wounded by a random arrow. His attendants conveyed him toward Jerusalem, but had only reached Hadadrimmon, a few miles south of Megiddo, when he died (2 Kings 23:28, 30; compare 2 Chr. 35:20-27), after a reign of thirty-one years. He was buried with the greatest honors in fulfilment of Huldah's prophecy (2 Kings 22:20; compare Jer. 34:5). Jeremiah composed a funeral elegy on this the best of the kings of Israel (Lam. 4:20; 2 Chr. 35:25). The outburst of national grief on account of his death became proverbial (Zech. 12:11; compare Rev. 16:16).

4 years of Aikido, 3 years of Takwando, in that time, 5 years of training with a Bo. I never really believed that the stuff would become "instinctual" but I was doing it for physical fitness. Then some asshat tried to mug me one night and I think in 5 seconds his arm was broken at the elbow. I, to this day, don't remember those 5 seconds. I think he was as suprised as I was (though, in much much more pain).

Brazilian, I hope.

TONIGHT's EPISODE SCENE BY SCENE SPOILER (via some dude on ABC's Lost Boards) Just saying, he's been dead on twice before. Read at your own risk.

I think we're just doing categories now Some are kayfabe and some are legit Let's split up the match awards (HD and PPV) Most Improved And the Fall of Haim~! must return!

*IF* I don't win the fan vote for Most Hated Heel, I throw a lemon at a homeless person.
-
Yeah, Brooks throws a ton, but you just can't sit Palmer no matter what.
-
Get Battle. If you intend to play him this week, that is unless theres a SF vs. HOU game coming up
-
SJ vs. PK dum dum dummmm!

1. Eko 2. I am pro-flashback

Teke, First, congrats on getting into the playoffs, hopefully. Yes, Peyton's going to have a field day, but I don't htink they face houston. Tennesse? Anyways Kennison's going to draw Champ Bailey, but neither of your other options are that appealing. If you get a pt per reception, then I would roll with Kenny. If you feel badly about that matchup, then Lloyd has a better matchup. Brown is near useless. As for your RB's, I'm in a similar situation. I actually have Smithand Gado as RB's you do in my friend's league that I am struggling to make playoffs due to injuries. DAMN YOU PRIEST! Anyways, I also have Ricky Williams, and I will likely play him over Gado, due to his matchup. For you, I think Duckett is the safest play, unless you hear that Fragile Freddy is OUT, then by all means, plug in Jones and let him tear for an easy 80 and a score. EDIT: This week is interesting. The team with Chad Johnson and Alexander is NOT in the playoffs and is in a MUST-WIN to make. I beat the snot out of him last week.

the official who is on your ignore list thread
Stephen Joseph replied to Annabelle's topic in No Holds Barred
I wonder once in a while if Im on anyones ignore list Then I don't care, because I probably ignore their posts anyways -
Ep 3 I believe, it was on a passing shot of the wing, according to the screencaps...the discussion on this is about 10 pages back in this thread. Its definitely on the screencaps, and downhome believes it, but im planning on viewing the dvd just to confirm.
-
btw, has anyone confirmed the dharma logo on the plane via watching s1 on dvd?
-
How many times has Lost pulled a swerve?
-
We cannot confirm that it was Ethan who hung Charlie. We only speculate on this. Only what we see is "canon" The "Others" are though, evil. They forcibly take people. Perhaps misguided, but they are not doing nice things. "They" have different goals than our survivors. While a 6 week break sucks ass, it will give us some time to get everything worked out so far. The story is very complex, indeed. But complex stories often have simple threads. For lost, Backgammon.

PR and SJ are not finished yet my friend. The hand slap will make sense, I promise you
-
Yeah you got lucky For 50 bucks, thats a big pot on the line, and pretty fuckin stupid to let it ride on a call like that. But hey, wtf do I know? I'm just 12-0 in my pay league.
-
1) SJ has some choice words for one Axel. 2) SJ gives an open challenge for anyone to face him for the title. Someone does? Who?

I want to personally applaud Ed Wood Caufield for an excellent writing job. Brav-Fucking-O
