Hockey and LOST and the Amazing Race
The Ducks are on fire. It looks as if my early predictions may be completely off. Ottawa and Edmonton are not looking good. At least Edmonton has won at least one game. It could be a all California Conference final. That would be interesting and probably a lot of people traveling the 5 to go to games in both cities. No matter what happens, I love the Stanley cup playoffs. There is nothing like it. Many good memories of where the series could change at any second.
On to LOST. Amazing shit last night. I think Michael is being blackmailed. It sucks for Hurley. Had me crying when he was saying “Why did I have to forget the blankets” I really like Eko and Locke. they are a great compliment for each other. The big experiment is getting more and more intriguing. It is almost as if they are caught in a time warp and also experiments themselves. All of the passengers seem to have some sort of trauma that would bring them together. Station “Pearl” is intriguing, although I would have done more exploring, and I am sure we will see more connections and maybe a way to the real “?”. I need to rewatch it again and look at some things a bit closer. Like the readout and the “Orientation Video” Same guy, different name. Such a retro-future feeling all around Dharma. I just can’t shake the time-warp lab rat feeling I get about the story line. I love the journey of figuring it out and others theories. I do think it is neat that the directors also only know half of the storylines as to not give it all away. I have been listening to “The Official Lost Podcast” and it is fun how they try to bribe each other with background that has not been revealed. A great show.
I do love the tie-ins with www.thehansofoundation.org and other sites with the storyline. If you read “About the MHA” under “Mental Health Appeal” section of the “Active Projects” it confirms a lot of my theory of why they are there and how they are part of an experiment. More puzzles to confuse and figure out. 
It will also be a way they can keep interest over the summer until next season.
As for the Amazing race, I am so glad that MOJO are gone and very happy for “the Hippies” It will be a tough finish. All teams have a good chance. While not the strongest all around, the Hippies are my faves and I think they will surprise the others.
