The brother tells his sister she can't support herself (by catching a fish). She uses her femine charms to get the hobbit to do it for her. He tries to get Hurley to do, but Hurley has no luck.
Redneck guy was hiding peanuts, then decides to give them to the pregnant girl.

I know, I know, the producers said everyone on the island is alive.

OK, just to play along, it could be that they were already dead, but the "death" on the island moved them along to the next level? Like, from purgatory to heaven or some such thing?

I am good friends with a couple of doctors. They do make a lot of money, moreso than pretty much anyone else I know, but they have more debts (especially student loans) than anyone else I know, so it kind of balances out.

God, this show kicks so much ass. Terry O'Quinn's character, Locke, is great.

Watched last weeks episode again tonight. I can't say enough how much I'm enjoying this show. And I'll echo the many people here praising Terry O'Quinn. I've always enjoyed his acting, and I think this is the best thing he's done.
Anyone else reminded of the video game Half-Life when they saw the guy with the suit walking around. For anyone not familiar with Half-Life (if your not, you should be asap) as you go through the game, occasionally in the background you'll see a creepy guy in a suit. He appears here and there. It's a very creepy technique for the show. Anxious to see what the deal is with him.

Take a look here, It will give you some kind of idea but I think that this is just just a bit to way high estimates for some things. For example, starting FP w/o OB in my area starts closer to the range of 80-120,000. Not that that is not a good deal of income, its just not as high as some people think physicians start out at.

Thanks for the updates on the missed ep. Clearly I missed a good one.
And as for that "pump" picture posted earlier--That's not mine, baby!

Actually, I've only seen her act in 4 ep. of Lost but I will take her over anyone mentioned(officially) so far for Lois. I'm still on a one man campaign for Kristen Davis though.

I know, but Margot Kidder always looked about 10 years older than Clark in the Reeve movies. She just looked ragged.

The latest copy of TV Guide has Lost on the cover and an article with 10 "Secrets Revealed." Actually, there are only a couple interesting secrets, and apparently the rest of the world is making the same guesses as we are here. Spoilerized, here are a few:
The Comic Book
Purgatory
The Koreans
Hobbitses & Heroine
Hurley
Most of everything else was lame 'secrets' about the cast. {yawn} But there's some nice info too.

Yeah, I read the TV Guide article, too.
Is it just me, or does it seem like they're kind of down-playing the "science" and "pseudo-science" angle?
Right now, I'm thinking that absolutely nothing is off the table as far as this series is concerned.
