The Friday Five

For today's Friday Five -I'm going to show 5 pictures taken by my son. As I've mentioned before that he likes to grab the camera and shoot a bunch of pics -So these are all taken by my son -See:
1. I guess he already knows the trick about taking a picture of yourself in the bathroom mirror ;)

2. Awhile back the kids put all kinds of blankets on the living room floor for some kind of imprumptu PJ party and here's what my son did:

I like his pictures of his feet on the different blankets! And the last blanket even kinda matches his outfit :)
Well,that's it for today -Have a nice weekend!

Getting LOST

Who all out there is watching Lost ? -Only a few more episodes left!
Think you got it figured out yet? Got some theories? I'd love to hear what you think!

Although I'm no expert on Lost. I have some theories like how there are common themes:
Destiny vs. Coincidence;Six degrees of Separation;Good vs. Evil; Alternate worlds-etc.

On alternate worlds I know there's a few episodes referencing Alice in Wonderland -Like something about following the white rabbit and Through the looking glass-etc. Further on alternate worlds-Time traveling and not too mention the flashes "sideways" themselves (When they show their world on the island and the alternate world as if the plane landed as normal.)

I also find it fascinating the six degrees of separation -everyone is connected somehow even if they don't know it (I pretty much find 6 degrees of separation a fascinating subject in general)

Then of course Good vs. Evil - I suspect much speculation has been made over Jacob vs. "The man in black". It would seem that Jacob wearing white might possibly be "pure" or "good" and the man in black "evil". Also there was a scene with a scale -one side holding a black rock and one side with a white rock-making it balanced -The man in black came and threw the white rock into the ocean. Again seemingly symbolizing black or evil taking over?-Possibly. There's been talk about one of them possibly being the devil even.

This brings it to the overall theme of destiny as well -What is the island all about? Are they destined to be there and "act like a cork" as Jacob suggested? Are they in hell as Richard mentioned before? Are they even alive? Maybe they are in some kind of Purgatory? And what does the whole Dharma Initiative got to do with any of it anyways?

As you can see -I am still quite confused. And there's probably other things worth mentioning that I don't remember -Not too mention could probably dissect every little detail for days =D So,What do you think ?!

Ready to watch Lost now huh?! I know the episode coming up tonight is going to have Desmond coming back to the island...

The Friday Five

I haven't done a Friday Five in awhile -You know when I post 5 things about any random subject. Well, here goes -so even though it's rainy and all today spring has sprung! The past few days have been really nice weather- things blossoming all over and of course it's Easter weekend -a sure sign of spring! So here's 5 pictures I've taken within the past few days:
1. A pretty flower from a tree in my backyard - I like the grey background from the fence:

2. The same tree just looking up into the sky:

3. Again the same tree but, with a bee going to gather pollen from it:

4. Moving on from the tree-I also have a nice Forsythia bush that's blooming:

5. And since it's almost Easter here's some of our decorations -these are on our back sliding glass door- I can see the Forsythia bush looking out there-See:Well, that's it for today's Friday Five. I have to make sure I get everything ready for Easter -we're having the big Easter feast over here. And of course we have to get our Easter eggs all dyed and everything. Until next time -Have a nice Easter weekend!
