    Work

    Since you're working for a big bank I'm assuming you're in finance? Have you tried moving to a different division in your bank that might do something more interesting? Or even to a different company/bank/HF/VC firm altogether that does more interesting work, or where the work you do has more...

    Harpe's Lifting Journal

    Oh, I only did one set of 15 reps. The 2 is mistakenly there. My shoulders/upper chest would hurt when I was doing front squats with the bar resting on them, not a regular or hack squat. That would indeed make no sense. I'm sure my form was a little off, but I'm more comfortable doing hack...

    Harpe's Lifting Journal

    So I think I'm finally over whatever it was I was fighting. After a few extra days off, I got back to it: Hack Squats 2x5 200lbs Hack Squats 2x13 130lbs Stiff Leg Deadlift 2x8 145lbs Calf Raises 2x10 180lbs My scale broke but I'm going to reweigh myself soon, as...

    Harpe's Lifting Journal

    So, after a a month off from lifting I am back to start again. I had a severe cold that lasted about 2 weeks, then a bout of food posioning. The problem for the last week is that I have felt drained and out of energy. In the mornings my nose is a bit stuffed up and if I stay up too late (but...

    New Lost Thread

    Oh yeah, and the version of Valis was a fairly new one, only a few years old. So Ben has definately been off the island fairly recently (I am presuming he is the one who bought it since it is in his personal collection.)

    I agree with Ever Onward. I don't think Aaron is one of the 'Oceanic 6'. Or at least I sure hope not. So, Locke is going batsh*t insane. Putting a live grenade in Miles' mouth and leaving him there alone...I guess it is not that much worse that when Sayid tortured Sawyer for the location of...

    LOST theories

    I don't think that it has really vanished totally, as right now the audience is left unsure of whether the sickness was really real. The only one who seems to be sure that it exists is Rousseu. Desmond injected himself for years until he saw his partner go out with a rip in his hazmat suit and...

    New Lost Thread

    Their storyline was resolved, but it was originally supposed to be a longer arc. A lot of fans didn't like Nikki and Paolo, nor did they like how they were introduced (me included); making it seem like they had been there all along and involved in the action. If more of the other random...

    Sounds a lot like Existenz. I really hope they do not go down this route, unless they can tie it to the real world in an interesting way. This would only be slightly more interesting than "it was all a dream" or "they are all dead and in purgatory" in my mind. That said, your theory...

    New LOST thread - What is going on?

    Watch Christina Hendricks on Mad Men. She is the very definition of voloptuous on that show.

    LOST theories

    Ben is a diabolical genius. I love it. Hurley disappointed me this episode. He thinks it is a bad idea to keep Charlotte a hostage, but then becomes the bait in a plan to take Miles, Kate and Sawyer hostage? I thought better of him. Tsk tsk. I find it interesting that Locke is really the...

    Or maybe "he" refers to Kate and Sawyer's love child, because I doubt the others left some condoms in the cage for Sawyer. Wouldn't that be sweet?

    Have Any Of You Guys Ever Been Scammed Or Ripped Off?? Tell Your Story Here!!

    My cousin just brought home a divinci stereo today that he bought off a guy in a Safeway parking lot claiming that it was extra inventory. If it was real, it would have been a steal at $320. As it turns out, it is part of a big scam that has been going on in Canada and the US recently. There...

    LOST theories

    Might be Claire. Desmond's said that in his vision he saw Claire get on a helicopter (though whether or not that means she actually gets off the island, who knows). It's pretty much the reason Charlie decided to go to his death, so It'd be a shame if she wasn't one of the 6.

    LOST theories

    Lost and Smallville are nothing alike, please. The thing about the shows you mentioned as being good are that most of their episodes were stand alone; they had a different story to tell each week, though there was always the over arching mystery behind the show. The x-files was also great at...

    LOST theories

    Some indicators that time travel/warping is involved: In the last episode, the polar bear and dharma sign in an archaeological site in the Tunisian desert. there was an episode with Desmond last season after the explosion where he was experiencing parts of his life that he had already...

    LOST theories

    http://mirrormattermoon.blogspot.com/ Is the island on a mirror matter moon? The guy goes into quite a lot of detail explaining his theory, which I guess has a basis in pseudo science circles. Not really sure that I buy into very much of it, but I find it amazing the thought that people...

    LOST theories

    Another great episode last night. So far this season is shaping up nicely. Even though not that much happened in the first ep and not that much has actually happened on the island, the flashbacks/forwards have been compelling enough to keep me interested. Hopefully they can keep it up, and...

    LOST theories

    I always thought that the polar bears came from Dharma. They were kept in the cages that later housed Kate and Sawyer and escaped when the other killed all the Dharma people. The smoke monster has made a few appearances since the explosion in the hatch. It was shown being kept at bay by the...

    LOST theories

    Actually, there are going to be 3 more seasons, each 16 episodes. The writers of the show were originally thinking 5, but I am sure abc wanted to sell more box sets so they lowered the episode count and added another season. I was relieved to hear that they set a definate end date to the...
