Say it ain’t so, Jin.

ABRAMMMMMMSSSSSSS, ABRAMMMMMMMSSSSSSS. Pull camera back.

Alas, one of my favorite characters on Lost is gonna bite the bullet! Now of course it appears that the next 2 1/2 seasons will take place over about 3 -4 weeks (Since Sun made it off, that means she leaves the island in the next 3 weeks - based on Juliet’s timeline) so we still get a lot of Jin, but why kill him off? Thoughts? And what does this mean to the fate of everyone else? Are they also dead? This is the first time we’ve heard of someone who did NOT get off being actually dead. All other references where to “your friends” and “we have to go back” - nothing about anyone being alive.

OK, so how many of you thought that Jin was in a time loop and maybe lost his memory? Aaahhh hah! I thought so. Well, this appears to be the first episode of Lost that exists in 3 timelines: past, present, AND future. Take a look at the phone Jin was using (old school), he was only married for “2 months”, he was working for Mr. Paik (Sun’s father); and besides, Jin and Sun where going to the US after they got off the Island, not back to Korea. So we had flashbacks, flashforwards and current timeline.

I knew Michael was Ben’s contact as soon as he told Locke to “sit down” - My question is this…where is Walt? As far as I know Michael didn’t have any extended family did he? K, let’s get this discussion started…

Why are you not watching this right now?

Already on its third episode, Download: The True Story of the Internet is a nostalgic look back at the beginning of the internet, the bubble, the trouble, and the legacy. Discovery Channel (check DSC’s listings) is airing this engaging miniseries, hosted by journalist John Heileman, and I, for one, am hooked. Having lived and worked through the dynamic time portrayed in this docu-journalistic offering I find myself glued to the set. I wanted (heck…want) to be these guys and it’s great to get such a quality pop culture-esque treatment.

Download: The True Story of the Internet is about a revolution — the technological, cultural, commercial and social revolution that has radically changed our lives.” (read more)

Oh yeah, that pretty much says it all. The first 2 eps are being re-aired throughout the month so go set your TiVos .

Drop your linen and start your skinnin’ (peanut shells that is).
