Lost and Translation

[hollyking]

Another of the gifts from hollyqueen is a dictionary of German slang. I could have used the phrase Beißen wir schnell noch einen ab! on Saturday.

I have learned a few things after watching season one of Lost. They are:

1. If you show up near the end of the season and start having a speaking role... You gonna die.
2. The average person needs to get a little basic survival training. I know more about surviving from just my time in the Boy Scouts than a lot of those idiots.
3. Never allow a crazy French woman anywhere near your camp.
4. Being a high school teacher doesn't mean you know a damn thing about handling old dynamite. (See rule #1)
5. A 20' boat cruising around in the dark in uncharted waters can only mean trouble.
6. This is the most important rule. Until you are rescued everybody needs to keep it in their pants. No macho bullshit will be allowed. With all those damn trees they could have built a damn luxury liner and been on the way home if they would just work together. If I was on the island I would have put a cap in kate, locke, sawyer and most definatly shannon long ago.

I love my bear. :)

Yeah...I have no idea why two of the more decent characters on the show have fallen for Shannon. Worthless waste of space, that one.

Jin, Sun, Jack, Charlie and Claire are what keep me watching. I don't see why so many people like Kate. Must be 'cause she's hot in that tooth-picky kind of way.

I hate Kate only slightly less than I hate Shannon. I used to like Locke but his obsession with the hatch has really turned me against him.

I like Hurley.

We have the first 6 episodes of this season recorded and now that I'm caught up we're going to start watching them tonight.

They would have killed me in the first week, if I didn't die from sleep-deprivation first. 'OMG, we're on a deserted island! We need to find some iron ore! And start making charcoal! And farming -- we're obviously going to need an agrarian society! Mapping! We need to map this place! We'll make a sextant from the iron ore we smelt!' And *thunk*, Locke's knife would be burried in my forehead.

I don't know about sextants but you can bet I'm going to start working on some projects from Latitude Hooks & Azimuth Rings. Some of that knowledge with an ATS-3 in an Altoids tin and I'll have help on the way in no time.

Not that building a society on an isolated island doesn't have it's charm.
