Did anybody else watched the MadTV parody about "Lost"?
It had it's funny moments especially liked the actress playing the role of Shannon. I thought she player her perfectly.

), I enjoyed reading it.

I'm finally caught up. This was a great episode. Good to see Jin is human and not just some cold blooded killer.
Good catch on Hurly on tv. Why would some american winning the lottery be newsworthy in Korea?
As for the batteries, I didn't mind it so much. Figure the batteries could last anywhere from 50-100 hours(who gets on a plane w/o fresh batteries), toss in that he could only be listening 30 minutes a day or every other day and they could have that thing last a 1/3 of a year.
Well the only non-English speaker of the 16 main characters. There are still about 30 other cast aways.
