Here's a little tune inspired by the Season 3 Jack-centric episode "Stranger in a Strange Land" . Unfortuately, this reveal about missing Oceanic stewardess/ Tailie Cindy was made in the commercials well in advance of the episode's airing. (Eh, we all make mistakes.) But it still had the makings of a swell parody song of "Windy" by that mod supergroup of the 60's, The Association. So, let's fire up the Swan Hatch's lava lamp and take a listen. :)

CINDY
[audio http://www.ralfthedestroyer.com/Music/Cindy.mp3]

Who's peeking through the bars of Jack's bear cage
And has a brain that's lighter than air
Who looks like they've been " Tastin' the Rainbow"
Everyone knows it's Cindy

Who's trippin' out on The Others' Kool-Aid
Spent too much time in Room 23
Who's here to watch you captured a moment
Everyone knows it's Cindy

And Cindy has glassy eyes
Like she's been lobotomized
And Cindy, she used to fly
But now she's fried
She's really fried

And Cindy has glassy eyes
Like she's been lobotomized
And Cindy, she used to fly
But now she's fried (She's really fried)
Completely fried (Totally FRIED)

Who's trippin' out on The Other's Kool-Aid
Spent too much time in Room 23
Who's here to watch you captured a moment
Everyone knows it's Cindy

Who's trippin' out on The Others' Kool-Aid
Spent too much time in Room 23
Who's here to watch you captured a moment
Everyone knows it's Cindy

Who's chuggin' down on The Others's Kool-Aid
Way too much time in Room 23
Who's here to watch you captured a moment
Everyone knows it's Cindy

The next Sawyer nickname, "Doc", ( Pilot episode Part 2) is for this guy

Dr. Jack Shephard.

Obviously, "Doc" is just a friendly, abbreviated version of Doctor. At this point, Sawyer didn't have a major ax to grind with Jack. This will soon change with the vying for the affections of a certain freckle-faced fugitive. (Who DO I mean?!) :)
Don't fret about Sawyer. All he needs is a couple bandaids and a bottle of peroxide. ;)

Other famous "Docs"

Doc Holliday : Dentist by trade, gunfighter out of necessity, gambler extraordinare, fought at the OK Corral, had tuberculousis, looked like Val Kilmer.

Doc Marten: Maker of high quality, yet provocative, leather footwear

Doc: One of the adorable dwarfs from the Disney version of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"

Doc Brown : Beloved wacky scientist from the time traveling " Back to the Future" movie series. (It's all about the gigawatts.)

Doc : T. V. Show, formally on PAX TV , starring Billy Ray Cyrus, about a country doctor practicing medicine in the big city. It was a heart warming, but unfortuately, mullet-free program.

He can fix your spine. He can fix your kite. He can fix that little plane crash story with the press. But the real question is....can he fix my back brakes?

See, they've been really grinding lately. If he can't do it, I was thinking maybe he could at least float me a loan off some of that sweet O6 cash?

...Non la voglio più.
Comincio davvero ad odiare Jack...e a stimare Locke! (non pensavo sarebbe MAI potuto accadere!!!).
Ci sono alcuni motivi per cui comincio a detestare il dottore da spiaggia:

1- È lui che non ha voluto scendere con l'elicottero a cercare Jin, né tornare indietro per salvarlo.
2- È diventato un fattone.
3- La sua avversione per Locke è diventata irritiante.
4- È troppo senza tatto. Il suo "he's gone, Sun!" è stato agghiacciante -.-

Peccato perchè l' action figure è davvero fatta bene:

A questo punto vorrei che per la quarta serie facessero l' action figure di Ben. La comprerei al volo!

La temporada de Lost ha acabado. Era lo único que nos quedaba, era lo que más esperábamos, lo mejor de la parrilla. Y ya está. Ya no nos queda nada... Bueno, algo nos queda: preguntas. Como cada año.

Está claro que no es la mejor season finale de la serie. De hecho, ha sido la que menos audiencia ha tenido de ellas. 12 millones de espectadores, superados, por ejemplo, por los 17 del final de temporada de Grey's anatomy. Aunque sospecho que este hecho, como la bajada de audiencia de la serie progresivamente, tiene que ver más con los espectadores que eligen verla en sus ordenadores. Qué listicos.

La verdad es que los finales de la 1ª y la 3ª temporada de Lost quedaron para la historia: eran casi insuperables. Pero There's no place like home no ha sido tan vertiginoso y sorprendente, o no nos lo ha parecido, por una simple razón: la temporada a la que pertenece era la mejor de la serie. Llevábamos una docena de capítulos redondos, para una temporada redonda. Y así ha sido, de principio a fin.

Qué ironía que, tras las vueltas que hemos dado durante estos últimos capítulos, volviésemos al sitio donde nos dejó el final de la 3ª temporada, en el mítico final de Through the looking glass. "We've got to go back!", Jack gritándole a Kate frente a millones de espectadores con los ojos como platos. Y ahí estamos de nuevo: Kate se da la vuelta y le grita, rabiosa ella, pero guapísima porque ahora tiene maquillaje, que no piensa volver. Que aún está intentando olvidarse de todas las cosas horribles que pasaron cuando dejaron la isla. Y que no nombre a Aaron, su casihijastro-sobrino, que aún le tiene que explicar por qué no está cada noche ahí para contarle un cuento. Y Jack, con barba y empastillado, se calla. Un dramón.

Pues sí, los flashforward nos llevan a tres años después de cuando los 6 de Oceanic se montaron la película que se montaron ¿por y para qué? Pues por fin lo sabemos. Y es que si por algo está caracterizada esta temporada es porque ha sido casi autoconclusiva. Al estilo Damages: desde el principio sabíamos que alguien iba a salir de la isla, y progresivamente nos mostraron quiénes eran esas personas y qué les pasaría una vez fuera. Una gran estrategia para mantener el interés.

Mientras tanto, nos daban respuestas a preguntas que llevábamos arrastrando desde el piloto de la serie. El oso polar era un experimento de Dharma. El humo negro responde a órdenes de las personas. El padre muerto de Jack andando por toda la isla no era una alucinación. Tom Friendly es gay. Incluso supimos qué había pasado con Michael y Walt.

Pero no hay nada como verse cerrar tramas que seguías desde hacía mucho tiempo, como el reencuentro entre Desmond y Penny. Y el caso es que, aunque parece el final de la historia, todos sabemos que no: Ben ya prometió en The shape of things to come que mataría a Penny, para vengar el hecho de que Widmore matara a su hija. Y todos sabemos que Ben es capaz de todo, y lo que quiere, lo consigue. Esto pinta interesante.

Otra pregunta, que nos repetíamos una y otra vez, se ha respondido: ¿y qué pasa con la gente que está en la isla? Respiramos aliviados al ver a la mayoría vivos, que sólo perdieron su oportunidad porque el carguero explotó, y Ben ha movido la isla. Por eso no han podido ser rescatados. Sabemos ya que Claire no está muerta, sino ¿desaparecida? Bueno, sentada en un sofá de una cabaña que cambia de lugar, hablando con su padre muerto, y echando sonrisillas siniestras. Y además le dice a Kate en sueños que no se atreva a volver a llevar a su hijo a la isla. Y todo eso mientras Jack decide que deben volver, y Ben añade: "Tenéis que volver todos". El obeso loco, el irakí vengador, el médico deprimido, la fugitiva con su falso hijo, cuya madre se aparece en sueños, la coreana rica, y el negro huérfano que no sabe que es huérfano. Y lo mejor de todo es que sabemos que casi ninguno de ellos querrá volver. Ah, y ese cadáver calvo que está en la tumba, un tal Jeremy Bentham, que en realidad es John Locke, que salió de la isla en algún momento y ha hablado con todos ellos, y al final ha muerto. A saber por qué.

Yo, en el fondo, sigo esperando que Jin no haya muerto, igual que su mujer, Sun, que está dispuesta a encontrar la isla. Quien sí sabemos que ha muerto es Michael, que lo estaba deseando el pobre, no como el actor, que dice estar decepcionado y ha hecho una gran muestra de paranoia y estupidez, al decir que "hay muchas preguntas sobre la gente negra de la serie. Sayid consigue encontrarse con Nadia de nuevo, igual que Desmond y Penny, pero un niño negro y su padre ¿no era interesante? En su lugar, Walt se queda huérfano. Todo eso se enmarca en el gran y extraño estereotipo de que un negro como yo, no es interesante." Será que la historia de Charlie, la de Libby, la de Nikki y Paulo, todos ellos blanquitos como la leche, no eran tan trágicas como la suya.

En fin. Esta semana ha acabado lo que, sospecho, ha sido la primera parte de una gran trilogía. La trilogía conclusiva de Lost. Podríamos llamarla Historia de una ida y una vuelta pero sería plagiar a Bilbo Bolsón.

Los restos de un barco, un vacío donde antes estaba la isla, Locke en un ataúd no se sabe cómo ni por qué, la tal Charlotte que parece ser que nació en la isla, y no lo sabe, el tal Daniel perdido en una balsa y Jack dispuesto a volver a la isla... Lo dicho, preguntas y más preguntas.

Y todas tendrán que esperar a ser respondidas en enero de 2009. Hasta entonces, sólo podemos darle vueltas a la cabeza...

Não tivessem sido as insónias deste fim de semana, demorava mais uma semana a terminar a temporada... Estas são algumas das imagens do último minuto da 3ª temporada.

Fiquei com vontade de ver a temporada 4, mas vou apostar num tempo sabático no que toca a Lost. Dois motivos: vou esperar que a temporada termine, de modo a ver a season de forma maciça (como eu gosto); segundo motivo, eu não vi Prison Break ainda, acreditam?

So... it's time to see Michael Scofield "jumping out" of the prison!

It has been sometime since I last considered my list. Since it is a popular hit on my blog (people would rather look at pictures of pretty men than read the crap I come out with apparently), I thought I would have another look. I am changing things up though and this time I am picking winners in five different categories. Oh and I will also mention the runners-up so you know how hard it was to make my choice! I have spent WAY too much time on this. Also, I found it really hard to find pics which truly showed off the awesomeness of the guys I chose. I like to think this is because I like them for their 3-D versions more than just their pretty looks. Or it could be because I am one plane ticket away from being a professional stalker.

¿Por qué están repitiendo?

Recordemos, y los que no saben, el año pasado si no me equívoco en Octubre hubo una huelga de escritores que dió frenazo a la producción de cualquier cantidad de series en Estados Unidos, también la industria del cine se vio muy afectada, Lost y Los Simpsons fueron los menos afectados (hasta donde sé) ya que como "niños juiciosos" volvieron a sus puestos de trabajo antes de lo acostumbrado, Lost tenía planeada la producción de 16 episodios esta temporada de los cuales ya tenían 8 episodios listos en las fechas del parón de los guionistas y como el episodio 8 (Meet Kevin Johnson) aunque muchos lo consideramos revelador y bueno, no estuvo al nivel de los finales de temporada que bien nos tienen acostumbrados los productores, guionista y todo personal pertinente en los finales de temporada de Lost, por ello se toma la sabia decisión de hacer 5 episodios más con un final de temporada de 3 partes llamado "There's No Place Like Home" (No hay lugar como el hogar) claro, con ese titulazo pone a más de uno a fantasear y pensar, "¿Que Carajo se traeran entre manos?"

Siento que debo pedir disculpas, he tardado un poco en dar esta expliación para aquellos Lostmaniacos que no saben que es lo que sucedía, tarde en publicar porque me había topado con información interesante en un blog en ingles de la serie pero... NPI (Ni Puta Idea) de cual era el blog, por lo tanto no pude, o no he podido traer esa info, de momento solo sé que la primera semana de repetición no me fijé cual episodio transmitieron, luego fue el flojo "Eggtown" y esta semana será el genial "The Constant"

Los Episodios que esperamos ahora son

The Shape of Things to Come - La Forma de las Cosas por Venir

Ben Linus y Sayid Jarrah

Something Nice Back Home - Algo Agradable de Regreso a Casa

Hurley Reyes, Jack Shephard, Kate Austen

Cabin Fever - Fiebre de Cabina

John Locke

There's No Place Like Home - No Hay Lugar Como el Hogar

Capitulo de tres partes y el cual no sabemos sobre quien  o quienes girará.

And got these...

I would have gotten the Second Season figures and the hatch, but the toy store was out. Bummer....

So, here's the dilemma. Keep them boxed or take them out? I'm probably never gonna sell them. But every time I think of unhousing them, I hear Lenny screaming "You opened the BOX!"

I have never been this "particular" about stuff like this, let alone actually BOUGHT action figures. Great! I have officially cross over to geekdom, haven't I? Oh, man!

So send me your (kind) suggestions on this matter and/or a number of a good therapist. :)

It's been confirmed. The "Time-Loop Theory" for the TV show Lost is legit.

I am aware that the writers of the show have said no wacky time-travel related plots will be in the show. Well, they lied. Or made a mistake. Because this theory is too solid.

Basically (and I repeat, this is a very basic summary), what the guy who came up with the theory states is that when the Oceanic plane crashed onto the island in 2004, the entire island was stuck on a continuous time-loop of the year 1996. The island was being sent back in time every 108 minutes, which is how often "the numbers" in the Swan station had to be entered. So by crashing onto the island, everyone on the plane broke through some kind of hole in the time-space continuum and traveled back in time to 1996. (The hole was created when Desmond failed to enter the numbers in the Swann station the first time.)

That explains why Rose and Locke have their former health restored because both Locke and Rose were perfectly healthy back in 1996. That's also why Jack's dad is alive on the island (I think), because his body made it on the island, and his body wasn't dead in '96. It also explains why the outside world can't find their way to the island. And it explains a bunch of other stuff too.

The theory also explains the origins of the DHARMA initiative (they're the bad guys...Charles Widmore is one of them); the motives of Ben, Richard, Jacob, and the Others (they really are "the good guys" as Ben put it); why births can't occur on the island; what the hell that Black Smoke Monster thing is; and it just explains almost the entire show and what exactly has been going on (even the polar bears). However, it doesn't really explain how the show will end. That's not what the theory is. It is basically just a breakdown of how the universe of the show works...and what the rules of the world of the story are.

One very important part of the theory is that Ben and the Others are actually from the future, but in a fairly normal way. They stole the time-machine from the DHARMA initiative in 2007, and went back to 1996 to kill the entire DHARMA organization off...well, except for those members of Dharma who weren't on the island in 1996, like Charles Widmore (possibly...more on that later). This also makes Ben and anyone else basically invincible until time catches back up to 2007, which would have been never if the island stayed on its continuous loop of 1996.

So...the island was going on in its nice 1996 bubble while the world kept going forward in time outside of it...until 2004, when Desmond failed to enter the numbers, causing Oceanic 815 to come crashing into their 1996 world. And Locke further screwed things up by not entering the numbers at all, leading to the destruction of the time machine.

You can go and read the theory in detail at the "Time Loop Theory" page. It's quite lengthy...it took me about 20-30 minutes, but really, most of it fits together remarkably well. That guy has seriously put some thought into this. It's almost like he was a writer for the show or something. Now, as much sense as his theory might make, I'm sure he'll turn out to be wrong in some aspects -- for example, I think he was just a tad off on Widmore. And the actual writers of the show are most likely aware of the theory, and will modify any parts if necessary. But I think he's really onto something with the whole time-travel/loop business.

All right, so the "basic" run-down is done with.
__________________________

This "Time-Loop Theory" has been around for a couple of months now and has been covered and discussed in forums, Lostpedia, blogs, and probably a million other places. But while it seemed pretty logical, I wanted to wait for the show to start up again to watch for any bits of confirmation. And I think I got it with the last episode (Season 4, Episode 9).

The first clue came when Ben told Locke or Sayid or someone (I forgot when he said it) that "'when' is a relative term." Of course it'd be relative, if you're a freakin' time traveler!

Another was when it showed what appeared to be a "flash-forward" of Ben and Sayid in the year 2005, after the "Oceanic 6" make it off the island. In that flash-forward, we see Ben recruit Sayid to be his personal assassin. He uses the trauma of the recent death of Sayid's wife as a motivating tool to use Sayid to kill off key members of DHARMA. But...in light of the time-loop theory, this is actually a flash-BACK, my friends. Look at Ben's contemplative face, when the story shifts back to the events of the island after his supposed "flash-forward":

"Hmm...I remember back in 2005, when I met Sayid off the island. Too bad I'm back in 2004 now."

(Sorry I couldn't come up with a better caption.)
Also, in that flash-forward, when Ben checks into a hotel, he double-checks and confirms with the front desk woman what the date and year are. Seriously, who doesn't know the year? No one! No one except a time traveler. You'd have to make sure what year you were in if you happen to travel through time once in a while. I think this was one of the biggest confirmations of time-travel playing a big part in the plot.

But there was also that last scene, when Ben confronts Charles Widmore at his penthouse. It had a whole bunch of clues in it...some of which I'm not too sure what they're hinting at.

First of all, Ben says that he can't kill Widmore and that they both know he can't kill him. Which is weird, because, really, what's stopping him? He could've brought a gun. He could wack him to death with his super-stick that seems to be his weapon of choice. He could choke him, stap him, punch him, whatever. But no, he "can't" kill him, for some reason...

Then they both talk about "rules," with Ben accusing Widmore of breaking them when he killed his daughter, Alex.

Widmore also says that the island was his, and that everything Ben got, he got from Widmore.

This is where my addition to the theory comes in...
All this leads me to believe that both Ben and Widmore (along with the Others) traveled back in time. Widmore was the leader of DHARMA up to 2007 and, up to 2007, DHARMA was in charge of the island. That's why Widmore claims that the island was his and it will be his again. In 2007, Ben joined with the Others to hatch a plan to steal DHARMA's time machine to go back in time to 1996 in order to exterminate DHARMA from the island. It was at that time that Widmore, after he realized he had lost, made a deal with the Others, and Ben, to save himself. "The Rules" are what the Others laid out for Widmore in exchange for sparing his life. And everyone who traveled back in time from 2007 was made invincible at least up to 2007, because they were all alive up to 2007. That's why Ben can't kill Widmore.

One of the "rules" that were laid out would be that Widmore leave the island immediately. But he was still allowed to try to find any way possible to find it again -- which explains why he was at the auction of the captain's log of the "Black Rock" ship (it contains the '325 bearing that is needed to make it onto the island). This was an easy compromise for the Others to make because they knew the island was invisible to the outside world -- and they didn't expect Desmond (or Locke) to fail in entering the numbers, which served to both keep the island in 1996 and keep it invisible to the outside world.

Another one of the "rules" would be that no innocent people would be killed, a rule that Ben has repeated throughout the show to both the Oceanic survivors and everyone else. When Alex was murdered, Widmore had apparently violated this rule. BUT, he maintains that Ben in fact murdered her himself -- which may be true. Because of the fact that she died indicates that unlike Ben, Richard, and Widmore, she actually did not live through the year 2007; She died sometime before that (perhaps 2004? Which is the year of last week's episode). Ben could have knowingly killed her for some necessary reason, banking on the fact that he could take her (fatally wounded, but not dead?) body back to 1996 and keep her alive there. As long as she didn't make it to 2004, she'd be fine. But "fate has a funny way of course correcting," as evidenced by Charlie, so of course, she died anyway, exactly when she died before -- and that's what Widmore is pointing out.

So...yeah, I've concluded this "Time Loop Theory" is legit and give it my stamp of approval. If all this didn't make sense, I promise it will make sense if you go back and read through the Time Loop Theory that I linked to above.

I'm sorry if this was all esoteric babble for all you non-Lost fans. We will now resume regularly scheduled blog-posting.

Song of the Day:

Weezer - "Island in the Sun"

I chose that picture of Ben because I'm not sure if he's good or bad. Judging by the happenings in the few episodes we've seen this year, I'm afraid to say he may be good. He's still creepy.

Lost recaps are on the air tonight - those enhanced episodes with the pop ups - so you can get caught up before the final episodes of the year start next Thursday. I've been doing some snooping and found some secrets of these new shows. Want to know what I've learned? Follow the jump!

April 24th's show is titled "The Shape of Things To Come." Now, I'm assuming that means the writers plan to lay out this whole Oceanic Six business and explain what happened to the rest of the survivors, why Sayid is a hitman for Ben, and what happened to Michael and Walt once they motored away from the island. Oh, and we should FINALLY learn who was in that coffin in the last finale! Too much to ask for in one episode, though here's a brief preview I've found for the show: Locke's camp comes under attack, and Jack tries to identify a body (!?!) that has washed ashore.

This article has some fantastic insight into the show. There's also this conversation with the show's producers, explaining where they're headed. And if you want to look ahead to the season finale, here's some good news (kinda).

Just for fun...

Did you know "what" is the Lost equivalent of Grey's Anatomy's "seriously?" True. Watch this if you don't believe me. If you have a question about something you've seen on the show, this website will likely have an answer (these people have a lot more time on their hands than I do). You can find one of my favorite Lost bloggers here. Ms. Whitney does a great job of getting scoop on the show! Today's post has the skinny on the next week's show straight from a regular person who was lucky enough to be an extra. One last tidbit: if you have a theory on Lost, send it to USA Today. It could get published! You could have it instantly published online if you leave it in the comments section here.

That's all I have for now. I'll be back next week with a recap of that episode (will that body be Michael's???). If you've missed the show and must watch it now, go here.

As we are nearing the end of the fourth season of this incredibly awesome show, there are still so many aspects that need to be answered. From the smoke monster in season 1, to time travel in season 4, the questions that need to be answered keep piling up. So here is a list of some plot points with some questions on each one that need to be explained. 

Big Toe Statue

I still haven't been able to forget about this after Sayid, Jin, and Sun discover this while sail-boating the end of season 2.

Where did this come from?
When was this built?
Why does it only have four toes and why is the rest of the statue missing?
Is the statue of the 'god' of the island?

The Smoke Monster

It has killed people (Echo was awesome) on the island, and remains one of the biggest puzzles on the show.

Why does it make that clicking noise like an adding machine?
Does it involve magnets in any way?
Can Jacob control or use the Smoke Monster?
Why did the Smoke Monster not kill John Locke in season 1?
How does Roses's comment on the sound of the monster being familiar to her and on being from the Bronx work into play?
Does the monster produce visions from one's past?

Jacob

This bad boy is the ruler of The Others. They all seem to fear him, including Ben. Ben has stated that Jacob can cure cancer,which may explain how Rose is now healthy.

How come he was invisible to Locke during the encounter in the cabin?
Why did Jacob tell Locke "Help Me"?
When Hurley discovered the cabin, why was Jack's father in there?
How does the cabin mysteriously move and vanish into thin air? 
How can Jacob know all the mysteries of the island as Ben claims he can?
Why is Jacob so interested in Walt?

The Numbers

Although bits and pieces have been released on the numbers, they have yet to be explained. Yet, they appear all over the show. Hurley hears them being spouted from a crazy in the psyche ward, and wins the lottery using them, which leads him to believe he is cursed. Danielle Rosseau hears a transmission and follows it, which causes her to crash her boat on the island. On a map, the coordinates are near Kosrae, an island of Micronesia. They were printed on the side of the swan hatch in which Hurley noticed, as Lock blew the hatch at the end of season 1.

But who is responsible for the numbers?
How do they involve the island?
Why do they appear almost everywhere?
Why were 'these' numbers so important that they had to be repeatedly entered in a computer?
What is so special about them?

Walt

He must be pretty damn important if Jacob told Ben to put him on the list. Yet, we have not seen him since the end of season 2. But there is no doubt that he has some sort of powers. Remember when Michael told Walt he'd go look for Vincent as soon as it stopped raining, and it immediately stopped? When Walt grew angry that someone wasn't paying attention to him while reading a book on birds, and suddenly a bird just slammed into the window and died? Ben was also notified about Walt's strange behavior after his capture, and was pointed towards a few dead birds. Walt's stepfather was actually scared of him and didn't want Walt. Walt set fire to the raft near the end of season 1. Numerous characters have claimed him as special or different, including Locke.

How did Walt know of the Hatch when he warned Locke not to open it?
Why is Walt appearing in other people's visions and why did he appear to prevent John Locke from killing himself?
How did Walt get his powers and where the hell is he?
How did Walt communicate to Michael through the computer?
Why is Jacob interested in him?

The Disease and Vaccine

Desmond injected himself with a vaccine for 3 years to prevent himself from getting sick. But we also see a rip in Kelvin's suit when he goes outside. Ben does talk about it after he is captured. Rousseau strongly believes in this disease, as her entire crew got sick and died shortly after reaching the black rock. Also, when Claire was abducted, Ethan injected her with a vaccine, the same one Desmond used on himself. But Juliet told Jack that the vaccines were used to save Claire's life and the baby. We also know now though that Claire is not in the picture (in the present).

Is the disease just a hoax?
Does this disease only effect pregnant woman, or is that just part of what it does?
How come no one has been infected on the show yet or is that what Minkowski died of on the freighter?
Did the virus kill Claire?
Does the disease only effect people that can travel in time?

The Island

A good amount of the characters on the island were brought to it by accident. There may be meaning behind this as well as the miracle of this many people surviving a horrible plane crash.

Where exactly is the island located and how come it is so hard to find?
What time effect delay (31 minutes) does the island have compared to the rest of the world? 
Why does leaving the island have side effects (Desmond in the helicopter) if you don't stay on the exact coordinates (as explained by Farady)?
Does the island only help those who serve a purpose and is that why Locke temporarily lost the use of his legs, which ended up getting Boone killed?
Why are random objects from different periods of time stranded on random parts of the island (the ship Black Rock, airplanes, etc.) ?
How did the Dharma initiative find it?
Why is Charles Widmore interested in the island, and why does Ben claim he wants to 'exploit it'?

Ben Linus

He is one of the most interesting characters on the show, and we don't entirely know if he is good or bad. He is masterfully manipulative, and there are more questions surrounding him than anyone else. Sayid discovered his secret room with numerous passports and currency, so we know Ben has access off the island. Miles has stated they are looking to find Ben Linus and shows a picture of him taken at an airport. And sometime in the future, Sayid is assassinating people for Ben.

Can Ben time travel?
How does he have access to have such massive sums of money (Miles asks for 3.2 million)?
Why does he so fiercely want to protect the island?
Why is Sayid killing people for Ben and who else is on Ben's list?
How is he as powerful as he is?

The Mystery behind Through the Looking Glass

In this season 3 finale shocker, a troubled and drug addicted Jack attends a funeral of Jo[.. ..]antham, which he finds in a newspaper on an airplane.We learn that Jack and Kate are both off the island, and that Jack desperately wants to go back. John Locke could be in the coffin, as he did hate his father, and could go by a different last name. When Jack asks Kate about going to the mystery person's funeral, she responds with a disgusted 'Why Would I go to the funeral?' This makes it clear that Kate hates this person. No one attended the funeral besides Jack, so this person has no friends or family.

Who is in the coffin?
Why is Jack so messed up he nearly kills himself?
why does he 'have to go back to the island'?
How did Jack and Kate get off the island?
why is Jack sick of lying, and what is he lying about?
Why does he yell 'Get my father down here' at the hospital?
And a few other specific questions that still have me perplexed:

How does Jack end up so far in the forest after the crash? 

Why was Jack's Dad's coffin empty?

What was the reason Hurley was in the mental institution in the first place?

What happened to Desmond after he turned the key?

How come Richard has not aged, he is the same age now as when he met Ben as a kid?

Why won't Jack see Aaron?
 

When Losers watch Lost they don't see the island full of mistery - they see their life without the misery. That's right, Lost is the TV equivalent to Crack, once your hooked theres nothing better than chasing those surprising plot twists. They number many, we all know, and it's because of those plot twists that have diverted the usual minute criticisms a loser would bring up like the Princess Lea Hair Continuitty in Empire Strikes Back since they usually have the time in which to do so. Par Example:

1 . Why Hurley has still got Man Tits after 100 days on the Island.

2. Why has Sawyer and Jack, no wait, why hasn't every man on the bloody island grown a beard. They're really starting to question my belief in the realism of Castaway.

3. Why has no one questioned why Sayyid Jarrah, looks like an Indian, talks like a constipated Bangledishi is playing an Arab.

4. Why has no one asked why Sayyid's last name, as mentioned above, Jarrah, is a load of gibberish and isn't in the Arab name dictionary (Oh Yes they do exist - they're watching you, those evil Arab name Dictionaries)

But then question becomes that in the world of the repeat, illegal downloading and other countless ways of watching your newest episode of Lost is why Losers have to make up the tradational 'My cat licked my balls and died' excuse so you don't have to attend an engagement which crosses the 'Lost Hour'. Well that's because Losers like talking about the future plot lines up until the next week comes and destroys the past week theories they have recorded on the discussion forums, comments section of news articles, etcera, etcetera.

Sadly, it's a endless cycle that begins with every Lost episode and ends with the subsequent "You Got to Be Fucking Kidding Me" at th end of each episode.

P.S. Comment From Loser: "I bloody knew Jin would get killed off". That's right fellow Loser, you were right, you were right, but Hurley's still got those Man tits, so don't get ahead of yourself just yet.
