That's Shannon. Sun found an herbal remedy for her asthma... just as she knew what to use to clean your teeth when you don't have a toothbrush.Lacero said:
See above for the synopsis.3rdpath said:
Just because Hurley is a little large is no reason to compare him to a pregnant lady...3rdpath said:
Awesome grab! Did you get that directly from TiVo or how? I'd love to hear the translation (although you might want to make it in white text in case others don't).3rdpath said:
I knew the singer sounded familiar... may I also recommend "the blowers daughter" and "cannonball"

i grabbed it from another site...had to scale it down quite a bit because of MR's size restrictions.
spoilerbasically the subtitles say " fortunate winner, los angeles, california"...and the voiceover says "lottery winner"...the next episode is titled "numbers"
Wow! Thanks for the translation. Its nice to finally get some back story on Hurley, hopefully we'll finally see more of Hurley's past next week, cause every week I think, man Hurley is probably the only main character who hasn't had a look into to their past.
Anyhow, did anyone else get a good laugh out of Hurley's CD player's batteries running out. Everytime I would see him with that CD player, I always wonder, they've been on the island for so many weeks and Hurley still manages to have battery power in that thing. And as I thinking that again on this episode at the end, the batteries finally give out. On a side note, I guess this is why in production they decided to Hurley a CD player and not an iPod!

3rdpath already provided the translation. Highlight the hidden white text after the word "spoiler".
Woof, Woof - Dawg
They don't post the comic strips at the Sally Forth web site until 2 weeks after they appear in newspapers, so I've been waiting for today to pick up this one from February 14.

Love it! It fits so many of the shows that I am now in to, that one needs to "capture" every word to fully understand the full story....
Repost of original post text:
Wow, GREAT episode tonight. The magic numbers are "4 8 15 16 23 42"... they're engraved on the side of the hatch in the jungle. They were on the original long-wave transmission heard by Rousseau (what led her to the island in the first place) and Sam Toomey 16 years ago. Sam Toomey used them to win AU$50,000, but was convinced that the numbers were cursed as bad things began to happen to all those around him. His friend Leonard, who also heard the numbers, ended up in the looney bin. Hurley, who spent some time in the looney bin with Leonard, used them to win $80 million in the lottery... but Hurley subsequently began to suffer the effects of the "curse" attached to the numbers (his grandfather died, his sister-in-law left his brother for another woman, his mother broke her ankle, etc.).
It would seem that a goal now is to get to the black rock, site of the transmitter that Rousseau and her team found, to see if there's any idea who ORIGINALLY set it up. Someone from World War II, perhaps?
EDIT: MSNBC's Lost page pointed out something I missed... one of the companies Hurley bought after winning the lottery was a box company in Tustin. Locke used to work for a box company. Is Hurley Locke's boss, and neither of them realizes it? The list of off-island connections between the survivors (Sawyer-Jack, Hurley-Locke, etc.) keeps growing and growing.

Sorry 'bout that... forgot about the West Coast. I've yanked my text for now... will repost later on. You read NOTHING... there was no text... nothing to see here... move on...Lacero said:
the west coast thing - funny hah
as to the episode, I found it to very humourous, which was a welcomed change from the norm.

You know what this thread is about! Don't read it until you watch the episode!Lacero said:
I feel sorry for the poor schmucks like me with kids that TiVo shows and don't watch them for days (except for tonight - I watched this one just now)! Loved it - nice to get some background on Hurley.
Gee, I hope I never win the lottery!
Wait a minute, what am I saying!?!? This show is seriously warping us!

The trick is to never use a string of numbers that's repeatedly endlessly by a mental patient. Funny that "42" was one of the six numbers, though...Doctor Q said:

I said to my wife that those were numbers I would play.
evoluzione said:anyone come up with a pattern/formula for those numbers yet?
another great eepisode!
Probably cast/crew birtdays with the exception of 42 which is well... 42
My girlfriend came up with a good thought about this show last night. We don't know any of the actors (with the exception of the LOTR character, who is so drastically different that it doesn't matter...). She was watching a morning show with the actors (who are still on the island...) and shut it off because she didn't want to have any connection to them.
LOST is not at all like watching Friends, there is no celebrity guest star like Bruce Willis that you can say "I remember him in Die Hard..." I don't know if that makes it more interesting to anyone else here, but it sure does to us.

And last night's episode was very good, the numbers are intriguing!
