Happy Lost Day!

Happy Lost Day everyone!

Lost Day is a day that comes every Thursday for a few months out of the year (2004 - Present). It's a wonderful day filled with intrigue, suspense and sometimes partial nudity. It's a day where people gather around the television at 9pm and proceed to have their minds completely blown apart by the sheer orgy of insanity and unanswered questions that barrage them for a straight hour.

I realize this sounds awful and painful. And it is. But in the greatest way possible.

For those of you that don't know, Lost is a television series on ABC about a group of castaways stranded on a tropical island. And with every day (1 day or less per episode) that passes, more mysteries of the island are uncovered and more details about the various survivors are revealed through the use of flashbacks and flashforwards.

And aside from a few missteps in the middle of season 2 and the beginning of season 3, the show has been consistently amazing. And this season (numero 4), has been the greatest the series has ever been. Answering some questions and revealing about five billion more with each answer. Alluding to things that will happen at some point, but taking it entirely out of any context that the viewer could possibly currently understand, but teasing you with just enough information to leave you screaming at the television screen, "WTF???".

If you haven't seen this show yet, I highly recommend putting it on your Netflix Queue right away. Or don't, if you value your free time and your sanity.

Happy Lost Day!
