Stephen Joseph

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.

Cold return shot of Stephen Joseph, dressed up to wrestle, with OAOAST Championship Gold around his waist, pacing back and forth across the Upstarts locker room. Towels and sports drink bottles lie on the benches, Stephen wringing a wet towel with his hands. He pauses as the sweat drips from the towel to the floor below, cocks his head leftward towards the camera, smiles and then notices the boos from the crowd Crowd: BOOO! You Suck! BOOOO! Stephen Joseph smiles at this, sits down on a bench and from off camera takes a water bottle, downs a swig, smiles again, places the bottle back off camera, clears his throat, and begins to speak. Stephen Joseph Last Sunday Night, I, Stephen Joseph, OAOAST Champion of the Woooorrllld, successfully defended my title for the 5th straight week. In total, I've defended my World Title belt 21 times in the last month, each time earning a pinfall or submission win. I *AM* a fighting champion, and true to my word, I walked out of November Reign still YOUR World Champion. ::BOOOOOO!!!:: Last Sunday Night, I faced a challenge. Tha Puerto Rican, tried and FAILED to get the title away from me. Now, Ed, you put up one hell of a fight, and I commend you for that. I commend you further for shaking my hand afterwards. Sure, you didn't like the fact that I cheated to win, but a champs gotta do what a champs gotta do. You were too busy enjoying the cheering crowd, forgetting that your purpose that night was to WIN the match, not the fans. I took advantage of that. Still, it was a hell of a match, and as soon as I exhaust the list of challengers that are breaking down Calvin's door for a shot, I'll give you another. SJ vs. PR II, whatta match. That could Main Event Anglemania son. Now, I've got to turn my attention to a recently returned ::finger quotes:: Superstar. Axel Crowd: YEEEAAAHHHHH Axel. Fuck Me? No, Fuck you son. You want to talk about not respecting me? You want to completely diss the World Title that I have around my waist. Son, I can handle your shit talking, but you don't EVER talk shit about the OAOAST World Title. You might wear it one day, you really want to shit on that lineage. I might not like most everyone that's held this belt, but I despise them, not the belt. The belt is the BE all and END ALL of the business, so if you won't take back your disrespect, I will beat it the hell out of you. Anytime, Anywhere, Any stipulation. You want to talk about disrespect? ::Stephen Joseph stands up, grabs a water bottle and throws it against the locker room wall, soaking Scotty Static's jersey hanging on a hook.:: Let's talk about YOUR disrespect you hypocrite. Where were YOU this year? You were in Japan, doing your shoot wrestling. You abandoned the OAOAST, because you felt it was sinking. You used us, and then were laughing at us. When Drek Stone and Hoff took their crybaby ass bawl and left, you LEFT with them. And now what? You're back? Axel, you're back because the SHIP has been righted! And who did all that work? WE DID, THE UPSTARTS! I DID, as a FIGHTING CHAMPION. I WILL NOT STAND FOR YOUR SHIT! ::Stephen Joseph is visibly shaking. He breathes deeply, to calm himself down.:: As for tonight, whoever signed my "Open Challenge" it will be for the title, and I will consider you to be Axel. Woo be unto you, for tonight the ring is my inferno, and ye who enter...abandon all hope. Scotty (from off-camera) Dude, my shirt's wet. Johnny (appearing on camera) And it's orange at that. Stephen Joseph Where the hell were you two? Scotty Meeting Stephen Joseph Meeting? Johnny Yeah. You got any stain cleaner? Stephen Joseph Just send it to our dry-cleaners. I'll take the tab. ::Stephen storms out:: Johnny What's his beef? Scotty You know Stephen, always paranoid he's going to get screwed by Corporate Johnny Yeah, Corporate. Scotty Poppyseed bagel? Johnny Dude, where'd you get those? Match CUE: "It Ain't Over For Me!" PYRO~! PYRO~! PYRO PYRO PYRO~~~!!! OAOAST World Champion Stephen Joseph steps out from behind the curtain, title belt fastened to his waist. His reaction is well, negative to say the least. He is flanked by his protege, Tha Puerto Rican. COLE We all though Tha Puerto Rican was turning on Stephen Joseph, but they're thick as thieves again. Stephen Joseph walks down the rampway and begins to walk around ring, Puerto goes to the opposite side. Stephen scales the ring apron and poses with the title on the turnbuckle. BUFFER Introducing first, the cOAOAST World Champion, from ATLANTA, GEEEAAAAWWWGGGGIIIAAAAA, the master of the Finality, heeeeeee issssss STTTEEPHEN JOOOOSEEPH! And the crowd boos. No big suprise. The music dies down, and then the lights go out! STYLES OH MY GOD~! COLE How'd he get there? The lights come back on, and Stephen Joseph is outside the ring pummeling Caboose! The referee is calling for Stephen to get back into the ring but Stephen Joseph decides enough is enough, and throws Caboose into the ring first. Stephen: Puerto, RING THE DAMN BELL! COACH Oh Hell YES~! COLE Stephen Joseph has swerved us tonight! Caboose scrambles to get up in the ring and meets Stephen with some rights as the champ slides into the ring DING DING DING~! Caboose whips Stephen Joseph into the ropes, and hits a spinning elbow! Tha Puerto Rican jumps up onto the ring apron, distracting Caboose and prompting the referee to come over! Stephen Joseph with a low-blow to Caboose while Puerto is trying to get into the ring. COLE Is this what Stephen Joseph had in mind? OH NO! COACH OH YES! Stephen Joseph, meanwhile, has put on some brass knucles. He steps around Caboose to put himself in between him and the ref. Stephen Joseph drops down and hits a European Uppercut with the knucks to Caboose's jaw! Caboose slumps to the mat, Stephen chucks the knucks, and Puerto jumps down off the ring apron. Stephen Joseph smiles to the crowd as he pulls up a limp Caboose. Resting his body facing his chest, Stephen lifts the deadweight of the former wrestler turned announcer with a reverse full nelson, balancing Caboose's head between his legs. He drops Caboose with a SYNCHRONICITY DRIVER~! COLE NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! STYLES OHHHH MMMYYYYY GAAAAAWWWWDDD! COACH Where the hell is that ECW reject? It's academic by the referee! 1! 2! 3! Stephen Joseph retains, but the carnage isn't done. Puerto Rican has grabbed Michael Cole and throws him into the ring, and Stephen Joseph decks the referee! FINALITY TO MICHAEL COLE~! Puerto Rican comes into the ring with a microphone, tossing it to Stephen Joseph Stephen Joseph All I see are two bodies named AXEL lying here. FUCK ME? AWW NAWWW HELL NAW, I WILL FUCK YOU UP! COACH PR NIGHTMARE ON MICHAEL COLE~! Puerto Rican and Stephen Joseph pose admist the bodies of Michael Cole and Caboose. AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF! (Take it away Adam)

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.

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

Umm, I am in atlanta, so like, i dont have a chance. i will leave feed tuesday!

ALWAYS go with a proven starter especially since you dont know if McMahon can do it again WHAT IF BREES THROWS TO GATES?
