Wasting time with Jet

Boy has this show become an obsession!!!!

After months of wondering what was in the hatch, the first four episodes have failed to disappoint the fans. Theories are spreading like crazy over what's going on and what's going to happen and the show's been giving us one suprise after another. Here's some of the juicy clues and observations I've collected so far...

1) The Numbers: 4 8 15 16 23 42, they add up to 108 which is the number of minutes that go by before the numbers have to be typed into a computer. (Yeah, I guess everyone knows this one now...)

2) The theory of how the polar bears and boars got on the island was pretty much explained in that weird "orientation" film that Locke and Jack watched.

3) And speaking of the film, rumor has it that Ethan from the first season can be seen in the film somewhere, I've looked at it 5 times and can't find him anywhere!

4) FIRE was good with his clue about the Swan Logo on the Shark's Tail that attacked Sawyer, I'll give him props for that.

5) Here's one I just found (I hope no one claims it, damnit!!!), but in Hurley's Dream Sequence, right before Jin appears, you can see a picture of Walt as a Missing Child on the milk carton Hurley drinks out of, I caught that on my 3rd viewing, I wonder if anyone else caught it!

6) A lot a people a bitching about the whole Rose/Bernard Jungle Fever couple, props for suprise, but kill the bigotry, man...Some are saying they won't watch the show anymore, and that's plain stupid. So what Rose's husband is white, big damn deal! It's the 21 Century people! We should be past this, move the hell on! Lot people thought the black guy that caputured Michael, Jin, and Sawyer (Adebisi from "OZ", that makes two OZ alumni on this show now!) would be her husband, I'm glad they didn't go that route.

7) Back to the episode 4, in the end when Hurley decides to let everyone have food from the hatch, there's nice scene where everybody's enjoying their grub and being happy for the first time in a little while, all is calm, all is serene...till you realize, They're all on the beach! Jack, Sayid, Locke, Kate, Rose, and Hurley...WHO'S working the computer and pressing the button every 108 minutes!?!?!? Some Shift Schedule!

8) The "Orientation" film mention the island's magnetic fields, I think that's responsible for Locke's ability to walk again, lotta wacko science theories on the healing power of magnets.

9) I also think the numbers have something to do with the seat arriangments on the plane. Jack was sitting in 23B, Ana-Lucia was in 42F (Back of the Plane), hopefully the location of the others on the plane will be revealed.

10) I'd think Desmond and Rousseau would be a nice loony couple, they should show them meeting each other on the island.

11) Sayid's becoming a bit too dependable with the electronics, I'm half expecting him to make a coconut radio soon.

12) They should have Charlie look for a Drive Shaft album in the record collection.

13) The way their buliding things up, this week's episode coming...should be scary as hell...
