Is there a pool going on how many minutes worth of commercials there is going to be? If so, put my money on 40 minutes.

Not only is next week going to be a rerun, but I’ve been given to understand that we won’t see the next new episode until it’s officially Sweeps. Does that mean Nov. 2 or Nov. 9?

As for Walt:

I think we won’t see him again until the storyline has had enough time pass to account for his rapid growth spurt – in his wet vision sequence, he looked about eight inches taller already.

I’m an Auturo Fuente fan myself, though I’ve tried most on your list. I love Romeo y Julieta also…Cohiba is nice too though I think they are over rated (I’ve only had the Dominican variety) and enjoy Monte Cristo also. 🙂 I know its a hijack but thought I’d just reply quick…besides, the OP joined in too.

I won’t go into it here but any time John. 🙂 Its usually nice here too though it does get cold during the winter (I’m up in the mountains in a small town called Placitas).

yeah, but he was trying to infiltrate the survivors’ camp. When in Rome…

He had to briefly give up his barefoot ways.

Actually, it makes sense (to me, who knows nothing about tracking) that being barefoot would make them harder to track. Like Echo said, “_they_ don’t leave tracks.”

I think I have a major crush on Jin now. _grins_

What did Jin say to Michael at the waterfall to convince him to go back with him and BBD? Also, did BBD give Jin a hockey stick to fight with? 😉

I’ve been thinking that the rest of the survivors of the tail section were “turned into” Others – like being an Other is the result of some kind of virus. Like in _28 Days Later_ or something.

Maybe it wasn’t a kid. 😉
