The Ack Attack!

I’m back from Oahu! I posted all my Lost filming location photos (paired with screencaps) on Facebook – click on the photo to check them out :D

(If you missed last year’s photos, check them out HERE.)

Click the photo to see my Lost Finale party photos! I’d love to see all of your photos – leave me some links or post them here and I’ll post my favorites over the next few days!

Having a Lost party for the big finale? Here are some ideas I’ve come up with or found online while planning my own party. I thought I would share in case anyone else is stuck…

• fake Oceanic boarding pass for everyone (these are really easy to Photoshop with your guests’ names)
• Rice Krispie treat 4-toed statue
• a cake shaped like the hatch computer or Black Rock or the hatch itself
• hanging a glow in the dark hatch map on the bathroom door
• having a disembodied hand that says “NOT PENNY’S BOAT” stuck to a sliding glass window
• giving out airplane-sized bottles of liquor and/or peanuts
• giving everyone lottery tickets with the numbers
• having the brainwashing video from Room 23 queued up on a computer
• playing only music that’s been on Lost or the OST itself
• any kind of polar bears – stuffed toys, plastic figurines, in cake or cupcake form, etc.
• get some KFC and cover the bucket with a Mr. Cluck’s label
• Dharma labels on EVERYTHING
• including a big Dharma logo on the front door (cover door with brown butcher paper, then paint Dharma logo – it will look like the hatch!)
• lots of Hawaiian food like pork, pineapple, mangoes, etc. (I HIGHLY recommend this recipe for Kalua Pig Nachos: Cisco’s Nachos Grande – this is SO GOOD and that pineapple salsa is redonkulous)
• Dharma food like ranch dressing, cereal, chili, etc.
• Apollo Bars
• Mai Tais, Pina Coladas, etc etc.
• scattering luggage/clothing around
• recreating the face of a Dharma van that people can stand behind and take pictures
• draping a silver tablecloth over some cylindrical and cutting out holes for windows to make part of the fuselage
• having tiki torches/fire pit
• making Fish Biscuits
• making Lost cupcakes
• make a Namaste New Recruits banner
• have everyone wear costumes of their favorite characters
• writing your guests names on a list, hang it on a wall and cross their names off as they arrive
• trivia contest

The possibilities are INFINITE! I’m sure you all have more ideas for your own parties – feel free to share!

I’m sure I’ll be posting photos of my party, and I hope you guys will show me pictures of your parties :D

Threadless has a LOST shirt!!

From the artist Nathan Pyle:

…I hope the shirt (and hoodie) can help soothe the sadness just a little bit and we can carry on in the midst of our impending LOSTless state. In the words of Hurley, “Let’s look Death in the face and say, ‘Whatever, man!’

I’m going to need to get myself one of those. ONLY 14 DAYS LEFT ;_;

Thanks to everyone who commented with questions for me! There were so many I couldn’t answer them all in the first go, so keep a look out for more answers in the weeks to come!

Have a question for me? CLICK HERE AND LEAVE IT AS A COMMENT ON THIS POST and I’ll try my best to answer!

After the jump: How big a Lost fan am I? Do I watch Archer? Who are my favorite fictional characters? Which Lost characters do I think will bite the big one? Why do I hate Jack so much? Will I be recapping any other shows next year? and more!

Every week I get lots of emails and comments from people asking me questions – questions about Lost, questions about TV/fandom, questions about my recaps/site, questions about me, etc. etc.

I thought it might be fun to open the floor, so to speak, to let you guys, my wonderfully loyal readers, ask me whatever the hell you want!

Have a question for me? Leave it as a comment here! I’ll post my answers later in the week. I can make it an ongoing thing if people are interested. So don’t be shy, all you Lurky McLurkers. I don’t bite, I promise.

TripAdvisor.com is featuring a page for Schrute Farms where you can read other people’s ridiculous reviews, which range from amusing to disturbing. You can add your own review as well!

I don’t know which is funnier – the person who name dropped “Battleship Galactica” or the person who wrote the review as a Cylon. LOL

Check it out here!

Here’s something fun to do on your lunch break.
