Lost with LOST

I refuse to postulate on this blog about what is going on on this show. I am way past theories, and having conversations with fellow Losties regarding the show. I think I'm actually getting depressed from it.

It is a show I like to watch alone now, in my bed under my covers. When people get on ichat and start chattering about what they think I get angry. I tell them "I don't care", 'Whatever", "Im not watching anymore!" But like a crack junkie too weak to stop, I go back to ABC every Tuesday at 9:00pm to have my mind messed with.

Unlike many viewers I didn't watch 3 or 4 seasons of Lost on DVD to catch up with the hype. I am a LOST original. I started watching season 1 right after it aired and have been watching in real-time. Meaning I have dedicated almost 6 years of my life to an unhealthy obssesion with being totally confused for a hour a week. Shamefully I have dragged countless people into this addiction with me. My poor fiance was never allowed to call me while Lost was on, so out of love and curisoity of what had me so hooked he began to watch 4 seasons all while studying for the NY Bar. One night he left it on while his brother was visiting from Portland and another one bit the dust.

One of the questions on my job interview for my current job was "Soo what do you watch on TV". As I ticked off the highlights and got to LOST I could see my interviewers eyes light up! It was totally a prerequisite to this job that you had to watch LOST and religously we gather around every morning after the show and speculate on what we think. But recently, I have been silent.

I am so annoyed!!!!

I mean I could go on for hours regarding the billions and billions of questions I have but I won't. Just suffice to say that I really doubt at the rate we are going that we will ever circle around to little things like polar bears and Walt's secret powers. We are just way too deep in the rabbit's hole. ABC and their extra annoying promos telling me "Questions will be answered" GO TO HELL ABC! They know exactly what they are doing jerking us along and all I can say if this ends in anyway like Dallas or The Sopranos, I'm burning something down!

I also have a bone to pick with Jack AND Sawyer. The are ALWAYS effin stuff up! Like for real you have been on the island for 3 years? Plus you travelled through time over a span of 40 years or something...Why do you keep throwing tantrums and questioning things? Obviously anything can happen! So please stop eating up precious episode time and plot advancement with your BS. I feel like punching Matthew Fox in the face!

OK RANT OVER..

PS I mean look how many people are in that picture!!! This is getting wayyyy out of hand..agreed?

Love,

TV on DVD alert

Before spring finally shows its face, we might have a few more weekends where we just want to be lazy and watch some TV. There is a plethora of things to watch during the week, but for those of us who like a good DVD marathon, I HIGHLY reccomend Sons of Anarchy.

This show usually airs on FX which is a channel a lot of people skip over. But for YEARS has been putting out high quality, premium channel worthy content. Nip/Tuck, Damages, and The Shield are all FX originals and they are/were fantastic television (Nip/Tuck has jumped the shark but that's another post).

I had never heard of Sons of Anarchy until this past fall. My co-worker would religously recap every detail of the show to a friend who ALWAYS seemed to miss the original airing over the phone. I'm telling you this girl is better then pressing play on your DVR. Overhearing snippets about gangs, and gun-running, the IRA, prison. It sounded like a possible replacement for the void that The Wire had left. So on a recent trip cross country trip I decided to load up my iTunes and dig in....

Sons of Anarchy (SOA) features a motorcycle gang that fiercly protects, each other and their small town in Northen California. Through the various and elaborate illegal dealings of the motorcycle gang we the viewers are dragged deeper and deeper into a world where cops will look the other way and the rules of "the club" regin supreme even above one's family.

For the ladies, this is one that you can get your man into as well. It has enough grit and illegal acitvity that he will be sucked in for hours on end. If you watch Gangland with a dropped jaw you will love this show!

Season 1 and 2 are available on iTunes and on DVD

Just because Drake told you to do it...

OK people, I'm back...this had just been sitting in limbo never published...so I'll start off with something that has been on my mind for quite a few months!


Ladies and Gentlemen (yes there are some former Zima drinking men that this is addressed to as well)-

It all started off as fun and games but I have a SERIOUS concern for the massive amount of people I see acting like Moscato is a delicious, acceptable, EVERY occasion wine..IT IS NOT!


Some people are going to be upset about this as they sit at work dying to get to their large size Moscato on chill to "help them unwind" after their stressful workday. More power to you and please if you really enjoy drinking fortified dessert wine by the gallon that is great, but let's stop acting like this is some kind of symbol of status or better yet an acceptable drink of choice because we were told it was by the rapper Drake. No one knew what Moscato was until he decided it rhymed with the word "bravo". He also decided that it was meant to be consumed with lobster and shrimp, so it is now paired with some of our more gourmet meals.


I mean some people even think it can be cooked with:


RT @MR_NOFLAW Soo I'm steaming sum fish and I poured sum moscato in it 2 see what its gon 2 taste like...always experimenting in the kitchen


-via Twitter




Anyways this isn't meant to knock anyone's taste because I truly believe as people of color we have a penchant for sweet things (tea, kool-aid whatever) But I am just hoping we can put cheap Moscato and keep Moscato in the category it is (think Hypnotiq, Boone's Farm etc.) So please don't bring bottles as housewarming gifts or look for Sutter Home Moscato on the wine list (it wont be there!)


Thanks for listening,
