Here's an idea for summer hiatus (or perhaps a way to throw a bit of a loop in the ol' storyline in season 2) - how about you show us some stories (or a story) of people who know those that are missing on the island? Kind of like one of the backstories EXCEPT it is about a person left behind, their relationship to the person who is marooned on the island and how they are coming to terms w/ their supposed death or disappearance. I think it would be kind of neat to see one of those who had been left behind and how they are dealing w/ it (would also give us some neat insights to the characters). Jack's wife/exwife/loveslave would be a good candidate, no? Hey folks - I'm trying!!!

On the FYI - it has been almost a month since I last viewed a new episode of LOST. Unfortunately, I have found that I am starting to experience withdrawl symptoms. I have begun calling my dog Vincent (much to her confusion - poor soul). My husband can't understand how his glasses now posess two separate lenses attached to two separate frames welded together. He also can't understand why when he puts them on I get all hot and bothered - not that he is complaining (yes, I am a Sawyer fan). I have developed a small collection of toy planes and can't keep enough macadamia nuts in the house. I fear that these symptoms will only get worse if I am not provided with some new material. Please save my sanity oh wise ones and throw us all a morsel to chew on!
