I have watched every episode of the West Wing and Lost

and I am pissed at ABC for running lost extra two minutes - and those were important two minutes this evening - and cause me to miss the first two minutes of the West Wing.

From now on I will tape Lost. This way I can watch a 62 min program in 45, while skipping all the commercials.

2. Not for the ones who have yet to see it

Boone came back to camp and jumped on Locke, screaming that he killed his sister, that she died in his arms. And Locke looked back at him and asked why there was no blood on him. And Boone let go, bewildered, and then he looked aside and heard and saw Shannon walking around alive like everyone else.

And then it dawns on Boone that the stuff that Locke gave him make him visualize what - Locke said - he wanted to. And then Locke asked him how he felt when he thought that Shannon was dead and Boone thought about it and said: relieved.

8. Another weird part was that Boone and Locke walked back

into the jungle, in the middle of the night.

4. Shannon didn't really die.

It was all a "walkabout" experience induced by the paste Locke used on Boone's head wound.

3. It could be worse.

You could be a fan of The West Wing and Alias, which ABC chose to run opposite The West Wing now. And since I have digital cable, I can't watch one show and tape the other anymore.

7. I know. You really need two VCRs if you want to watch one program

and tape another. Or, if you are out of town and want to record several shows on different channels.

A few years ago we bought a small TV/VCR - I think that they are getting really cheap these days - and I have used that one for that purpose.
