All I could think about was how cute he was & how much STH would have loved military Des. I was pleasantly surprized I could follow all the future stuff since I got lost when Hiro went back to feudal Japan. What a love story! Penny stopped his nosebleed. P.S. I love my new avi. It's courtesy of soka king. (smooches to Albert kitty)

I think Charles is up to a lot of things that Penny doesn't know about, but is on the verge of discovering. It's probably why the ship had direct orders not to take a call from her. When talking to Desmond, Penny says "I know about the island. I was researching... (static)... and then I spoke to your friend Charlie and that's when I knew." I'm going to guess she was researching her father or something or someone connected to him. It also makes the whole Oceanic six cover up story more intriguing since Penny clearly knows more than she should.

They even used the term he uses in Slaughterhouse-Five--being "unstuck in time." I was surprised they didn't stick a clip of Sawyer reading Vonnegut in there, just for the hell of it. They usually do when they reference books. Anyways, because I'm a huge Vonnegut fan, I had to love this episode! Though, a lot of it did confuse me...especially the ending...wtf was with Faraday's journal?

I never understood Flashes and don't think I ever will. This episode was a comfortable mindfuck for me. Umm.. if Daniel had that note about Desmond being his constant, then how come he didn't seek Desmond out when he got there? He showed no interest whatsoever in Desmond. Is it crazy that I think that note was not in his journal until after he sent Desmond back to see him in the past.. and after the issue of having a constant came up between them? Thinking out loud... so Jack doesn't appear to know about the hatch and its magnetismic properties (i do know that is not a word, I just like it!) Jack wasn't on the beach when the hatch imploded. He was in Otherville. I'm guessing noone said shit 'cept the hatch blew up (or in). Did anyone actually know or recognize it had an impact on the island and the people? Refresh my memory. They all seemed to be in a stupor and then just went about business as usual. Felicia - Maybe Daniel didnt remember Desmond? He couldn't remember the three cards from a few minutes ago, so perhaps all that exposure to the radiation really mindfucked him?

I think this is a close second to last season's finale. That finale had so much awesomeness. I do think this is the best season of LOST ever. It will be a crying shame if they are forgotten at Emmy time again.

Is it crazy that I think that note was not in his journal until after he sent Desmond back to see him in the past.. and after the issue of having a constant came up between them? Thinking out loud... I think either the writing was NOT there before his talk with Des or either it was there and he didn't really know what it meant and just remembered it after talking with Desmond. Did he have any interaction with Desmond on the island? So, let's see....next episode it'll be December 25th, 2004--Christmas Day. The episode after next it'll be December 26th, 2004. Does that day sound familiar to anyone? From Wikipedia: "The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake was an undersea earthquake that occurred at 00:58:53 UTC December 26, 2004, with an epicentre off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The earthquake triggered a series of devastating tsunamis along the coasts of most landmasses bordering the Indian Ocean, killing more than 225,000 people in eleven countries, and inundating coastal communities with waves up to 30 meters (100 feet). It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in history. Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, and Thailand were hardest hit."

Now the card memory test makes sense. That was one I couldn't figure out - how it was so difficult to remember three cards and why that scene was even significant! It totally fits that Dan forgot his constant. I know how he feels... I forget what I had for breakfast the day before so don't ask me any details of 8 years ago.

Actually Michael and Walt headed off at a bearing of 325: "Henry told Michael that by traveling at a compass bearing of 325, they would find rescue." source But this is interesting When the group buries Eko, Locke looks at Eko's stick and takes special note of one particular bit of scripture carved on it: "Lift up your eyes and look north. John 3:05." Locke takes this as a message to himself and determines to go north on a bearing of 305 degrees. Though skeptical, Sayid accompanies him, as do Kate and Danielle. ("Tricia Tanaka Is Dead") The compass bearing eventually leads the team to the Flame station, where the group meets the Other Mikhail. So the 305 compass bearing has been used before. source Is it crazy that I think that note was not in his journal until after he sent Desmond back to see him in the past.. and after the issue of having a constant came up between them? I don't think so. That is precisely what I think happened. Forgetting something like that seems a little implausible. Even with Faraday's memory issue.

It does line up with the theory of Miles changing the present when he was being a ghostbuster (the picture frames changing).

For Claire, it could be the song Catch a Falling Star. It was important to her that whomever adopted the baby sing it to him because her father sang it to her when she was little. And when she got to the baby's room in the hatch it was the song the mobile played.

Faraday wrote that to himself back in 1996 (or when ever) after meeting Desmond, I'm assuming, and the whole experience on the island just confirmed to him that his info was right and he was on the correct path. That was my interpretation, anyways. Here ya go ...
