Ok…..This is a pathetic theory attempt.
Just thought Id mention that i thought it was interesting that Jack said to the stewardess in TTLG that 20 minutes can be a long time.
Also thought it might combine with the Orchid Hatch video,which said they used a shift of negative 20

wtf: I just watched that scene, and yes, I think it is significant. Funny though why its 20 minutes and not one of “the numbers.”
Agreed, stip, odd they wouldn’t use one of the numbers?????
wtf: When I rewatched TTLG I just assumed that Jack meant anything (like a crash) could happen in 20 minutes, but you might be on to something.
Good point Annie…I could be looking for clues in all the wrong places…lol
commenting again because I forgot to vote +1, silly me!
wtf: No, it could still mean something, but I know what you mean. I think we’re all grasping at straws at this point and we’ve still got five more months to wait!!!
Could it not also be that time moves slower on the island? 20 minutes could be like a day on the island, or whatever.
Annie ….Are you hooked up with your new computer?Dont mean to hound you or anything ….just wondering..
wtf: we respectfully ask that you delete the “I’ve got nothing” quote…its beneath you. You do have something…
Oh….I know I’ve got something baby! LOL
stip: agreed!
wtf: Handyman is coming this week to assemble my desk and I’ve scheduled the cable co. to come Monday to connect!!
I can’t wait to get in on all the good stuff!! Thanks for asking.
I tried to get into CodeLoSt’s (or however he spells it) theory this morning too and couldn’t get in. hhmmmmm wonder why????
wtf: that’s the spirit!
Annie, Ben is jamming the signal to Codelost…
joe: Then we’ve got to get Des to find somebody to unjam it right away!!! Any takers it’s not dangerous….
nice theory. I have been having the same problem with that theory Annie. I wonder if our buddy posted some language that the filter is catching and denying us access to the theory.
WTF did jack say that to Cindy. I really hope she plays a bigger role in the future. I like her. I wonder why she was taken so early. I’ve always asumed that as the surviving crew member, Ben needed to know what Cindy knew about why the plane ended up near the island. But she has seemed awfully at ease among the others.
I’ll take the tower if someone else will hit the LG
I can’t swim.
Wait I am a swim champ.
Nevermind, I will just row the raft to the LG.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalt!!
No Lockeko….Jack said it to the hostess in TTLG
Did you know that Cindy was supposedly secretly loved by the author of Bad Twin..(forget his name)
Stip dons hat, holsters gun, grabs whip…
que theme song from Raiders of the Lost Ark

Rag….Just hold your breath and go for it man!
joe: It’s a rahft.
wtf: I think it’s Gary Troup.
stip, I found a link I wanted to pass on in honor of your friend.
http://www.amherst.edu/~rjyanco94/literature/alfrededwardhousman/poems/ashropshirelad/toanathletedyingyoung.html
wft, jack said that to the hostess in the flash forward. Yeah, now I remember. I wonder is something very significant will happen in 20 min in the upcoming season. Also, I’m sure to a surgeon, 20 min can be the difference btn life and death
Stip in true indianna fashion, make sure and bring a gun to a sword fight
Woaw, I thought I lost all of you for awhile. Glad you’re all back. Did anyone unjam successfully?
I hope they do not find out I am really Mikail and see the grenade I am carrying.
Crap, was that outloud?
rmj, is that a grenade in your pocket or….
Am I just happy to see you??
I am not happy…so it must be a grenade.
(not that I am unhappy, just tired and overloaded…still have a lot of planning to do for this week of school)
I meant to put some emotion in the last post…
!! :)
I don’t think that supposed to work like that for you wtf, you sassy thing
….dons my snorkel and swims down to LG with my grenade…
rmj, don’t work too hard. what do you teach?
Wait, which reality are we in? Can I swim?
RMJ wait. You forgot your patch
Hey…if PG can get shot down …then I just have to learn to take it too
8th grade science…and I am not working too hard…that is why I currently swimming (or not swimming) down to blow up the LG. :)
(guys please go flag the ct threads as not a theory, Thanks)
I don’t need the patch. I have two good eyes in the reality I can swim in…and gills…so that is a little weird…dang DI and their experiments!!!
atta boy. I loved 8th grade science. at my school 8th grade was physical science, and I got to sit by my dream girl. ahh the memories. I should have known it would never work when she slapped me for telling her she had a nice acid.
ct threads?
casual friday threads. sorry
Nice acid…awesome!
dude, maybe mikhail is that thing from waterworld. and the freighter is the exxon valdez
We do Earth, space, and a little physical science.
I know, I was such a loser
lockeko: Surely, you don’t trust me to do that again this week do you? lol
LOL! You guys are hilarious.
Lockeko, true, best scene in movie history.
RMJ: dude, ditch the snorkel and strap on the James Bond scuba suit and jet propulsion backpack…
I think you are on to some, lockeko…and Dharma was there to clean up an oil spill!
Wait…maybe the Black Rock was the Exxon Valdez…the oil did cause a lot of rocks to turn black…
I also got in trouble for asking the teacher what his favorite planet was. He just looked at me with that WTF look, and while he was doing that I said, “just wondering sir, my favorite planet is Uranus.” The laughs were worth the trouble on that one,
Annie, I trust you implicitely
I used the jet propulsion backback to power the rahft…dang, I knew there was a better use for it!!
I teach the kids about how Uranus is made up of mostly methane…which is true…and amonia…also true…and then help them make the connection.
sorry stip but I rank several scenes above that one
— Doc Holladay and Johnny Ringo’s gunfight in Tombstone
— Fly by in Top Gun
— Wrench scene in Dodge Ball
— final performance in Blades of Glory, b/c its to flash theme song
those are just a few bro
dude, if they need help with that connection we are in ds for the future. since you teach earth science, maybe you’d like to help with the removal of the TNT thats now broken down into nitro.
btw: you all, (a New Englander’s way of talking southern) if you haven’t been in to read linuss’s thread lately, I’ve now trade marked the phrase Post and run TM. And Joe is making the T-shirts.
Okay now I’ll go and flag and not say a word about it. Zip the lip and all that.
Other great movie scenes you left out…
—the radio, fight, and diner scenes in TommyBoy (the scenes all happen in a row)
—the Iocane powder poison scene in the Princess Bride
—the reveal scene of Sixth Sense
—the Doc Ock fight scence in Spidey 2
I’ll give you Top Gun and Doc Holliday, but no deal on Dodge Ball and Blades of Glory.
Trade you the car chase scene in Matrix 2 and the pottery scene in “Ghost”
don’t like Matrix 2, one was enough, but love the pottery scene in Ghost. I’d have to throw in the “you eat for breakfast” from Happy Gilmore
loved the sixth sense reveal. That was classic. The beginning scene of Scream with Drew Barrymore was pretty classic too
Is my name is ragamuffinArzt now?
This is my thread ..and rag wins..due to Princess Bride shout out
yeah dude. don’t stand so close to me (TM)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXU8kCrRHJY
WTF where you been, don’t stand to close to RMA, he’s a little volatile this morning
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZQKqju2Trg&mode=related&search=
WTF: did we just hijack your thread?
Okay, I am out. I need to go watch some NASA clips and finish my plans for Thursday and Friday. The kids are building egg-drop-Mars-landers. I got to go to teacher space camp in Alabama this summer, so I have space program themes for everything now! And that is okay. I know I am a geek.
Annie, nice try but you all just doesn’t sound the same as ya’ll. But then again Charlie’s song would sound as good if it were ya’ll everybody.
@RAG: YOU DA MAN!
lockeko: I know I promised not to comment on you know what again, but sham’s is gone, your’s still needs some votes. Enough said?
Yes!! I win!!!
nuff said. nice win RMA.
Thanks lockeko. Nice add of the A replacing the J in RMA. I closed down CF for you. Now I am gone. I stayed to check out the police video. Niiiice. (you get the reference if you watch The Office…Scrantonicity, baby!)
thanks for the flags
the pottery scene from Ghost awesome
the reveal scene from the Sixth Sense chilling
“Who are those guys?” From Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Best ever
Stip ..The Righteous Brothers.. very nice
the “freedom” scene in Braveheart is classic too.
I also love the scene in Gladiator when the King’s guard doesn’t help him and he gets killed by injured gladiator
lockeko, yeah, I redeemed myself this week!!!
yes you did, but there was nothing to redeem, I was only kiddin’ with ya last week. we had already told how to flag them. Hope you enjoy your new computer by the way
Lockeko: “Sheath your sword” so Maximus can have a fair fight with Joaquin Phoenix - awesome scene. The respect for his former leader in that scene was spine tingling!
Annie! yes, I forgot about that line - awesome. “Hey teacher lady…”
From the Sting: Johnny Hooker walks in on Henry Gondorf passed out drunk. “Luther said you can teach me the big con, I already know how to drink.”
Was Henry Gondorf Sawyers grandfather?
definitely his gradfather, definitely
heres a little something from charlie to usall

RMA, when you were at space camp, did you see the oversize diapers like the crazy lady wore so she wouldn’t have to stop on her way to kill her competition.
I got to bring a pair of the diapers home. We weren’t allowed to use the bathroom all week!!! lol
hahahahahahahahahahahaha!
LMFAO Lecko!!
oh man! my side hurts!
Dude, that made my week.
Made your week? It is Sunday!! lol
both my past week and my future week - it is Lost after all…you have to exist in multiple time lines, right? So actually, I’ll get to laugh at this joke twice! Hey, that’s a pretty good concept. I think I’ll box it up and sell it on eBay.
I will snipe it at a discount price.
wtf: You started the Sunday thread! Good for You! “The Breakfast Club” on here, is so cool!
Annie: Glad to hear about your computer! Now you can officially be a part of Casual Friday’s and enjoy, what everyone else does!
Great video of Righteous Bros. Just caught it recently! Hmmmm, wonder where??
Enjoy your day!
I hate Illinois Nazis.
But…

remember tom and jack being all happy playing football
TM=Trademark. :-)
okay, so now we’ve officially hijacked WTF’s thread ;-)
WTF, you haven’t made it on LT until the gang comandeers one of your threads. I guess its a left-handed compliment in a weird, twisted, Ben kind of way…
Okay, Locko!!!
This one is for your comment on CF! And remember it is “the Mystery Machine”! And what goes on in there, shall remain a mystery!!

Oh, I see (TM).
Bye Kat (TM).

RMA, lets call a truce on the (TM) I’ll admit you win.
Yeah. I am done. We will call it a tie. I did not win.
hey, Annie79 just want to tell you that you are pretty rude in most of the comments you do. Just to let you know my theory you could not get in the morning because I tried to edit it to separate the paragraph’s and on the moment I save it I got an Error, Error 500 but, I talked to the webmaster and he fixed it for me. If you think I am trying to hide something seriously you are just showing me you don’t have to many friends or a life more than this site. But, whatever think what ever you want and by the way my theory is online again thanks to the webmaster. Check it out yourself and before judging try to think a little it would be a great help for everyone believe me. Here is the link to my theory to prove you I am not lying:
http://lost-theories.com/theories/2007/aug/25/my-lost-theory-codelost/
By the way Have a nice day Annie79 :)
Regards CoDeLoST (by the way that is how you write my nickname)
OMG, someone is after Annie. Annie after reading that, I would advise you to make sure your windows and doors are locked. looks like someone has an admirer
WTF, please tell me that picture is not your front yard. that is awesome. I had a friend in College from the Gold Coast and he was always showing great pictures.
yep…just a hop skip and a jump :)
What is up with Codelost?
you must love it
I am sorry, I mean CoDeLoST.
I will say CL for short. Not a big fan of trying to type the random capitals. Sorry.
RMA, he will come after you like he did annie. speaking of annie we haven’t heard from her since code’s rampage. hope she’s ok.
We need to go find her. I hope it doesn’t involve the LG…that is what started this hijack in the first place.
annie are you ok, are you ok, are you ok annie?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EuZc6yU1RU&mode=related&search=
LOL!!!!!
lockeko: You are too twisted, Irene! That’s hilarious!
call me thick people but i dont really get the point of this?? So in a hatch video someone mentioned 20 something and then Jack said 20 mins to the stewardess??
Again im sorry for the thickness… if someone could explain i would be delighted
VK, I’ll let WTF clarify, but she is trying to draw attention to the fact that Jack says “Yeah, well 20 minutes can be a long time” to the flight attendant (as opposed to “That’s plenty of time for me to have another drink”) and how coincidental that statement is with the Orchid video of the bi-located rabbits being set at negative 20 minutes.
The pose is that Jack may possibly know something we don’t yet about how time is “different” somehow.
Does that help? It doesn’t with the rest of the lunacy on this thread, which I am part of, but hopefully it answers your question.
only sort of… i think the main problem here is that i have no idea what the Orchid Hatch video is… my bad.
If you could let me know what episode its in then i might be able to play catch up…
thanks
Its not an episode - recently released info at 2007 Comic Con. Do a search on Orchid video.
I’m okay, everyone. Call off the search and rescue. Just went out for the day.
Guess you just can’t miss one day (or afternoon even) around here without things blowing up.
Never would have guessed I’d be in the middle of it though.
we’re just glad you are ok annie
Annie: Did you see the video, that locko put up here! Hilarious!
OMG…
Cant believe i have never seen that before… wow!!
That sort of thing is what i really love about lost!!
Just as i was feeling pretty confident about a theory or two, something comes out that totally blows my mind!!!
Thanks a’lot stip
your welcome…a’lot
;-)
VKain: Lostpedia, The Tailsection, and DarkUFO, especially, are good sources of information, if you’d like to give them a try.
dab when you are incognito you should log in as hereisdabiatch, no one would get that
Ya know, Locko. I am beginning to see that we have been a very bad influence on you! Isn’t it great, man!!
hey guys can you have a look at my NEW 3/3 SEASON and see what you think??? would love some feedback
Anyone heard from Shamballa or Hex or Thinker?
Hope, Shamalama is okay. Haven’t seen Hex or Thinker today, though!
very bad dharma beer. and I think we should have known better than to drink the stuff thats been in the microbus for like 25 years, had a funky taste to it
Apparently, everyone is taking shots at me tonight. And now, you Kat?? What is the world coming to. We won’t last another 6 months until Season 4. I am predicting a lot more insanity. What next??? lol
Maybe it’s time for me to introduce a good song from “The Boss”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5v6lh_wApQ
That wasn’t the beer!!
that song is like “brown eyed girl” every drunk in america thinks he/she knows the words and tries to sing it when it comes on at the bar. I love those songs
I can top that:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ck5r3NC8FI
One of The Boss’ best.
Hay Kat: Go over to the Mrs thread. I posted a steamy video of her boy Sawyer for her. Check it out!
dab it wasn’t too steamy. didn’t do anything for me hormonally
Stip: I would have to agree with you, about that! You topped It!
BK (TM)
well kids, I’m going to take dab’s advice, eat my bologna sandwhich and head off to bed. catch you guys in el manyana. Thats spanish for the manyana
Okay, Goodnight “Living La Vida Loca”.
later man, thanks for your support this weekend
Leko……loved the annie are you ok ? vid .LOL
According to Lostpedia in the episode ‘one of Us’ series three, Richard Alpert says that time “really flies” on the island. Could this link in to what Jack said to the stewardess???
allisonF: do you think time on the island moves FASTER than the outside world? We’ve posted a lot about the opposite - because of Walt.
I also think the X-Rays Juliet looks at are a major clue as well.
Stip: have just watched TTLG part one and jack says ” 20 minutes is a long time”. He’s drunk. I now don’t think there is anything in it at all. He says it without thought. As for my post, I read it on Lostpedia and i sort of remember Richard saying it ( time flies) but I can’t find it in the episode “one of us”. I just thought that linking the two was a possibility but it poses too many problems if time does move faster on the island.
Sorry, this just seems like another attempt to find the meaning of the universe in these character’s most quotidian conversations.
I’ve figured out the significance of the “20 minutes” quote. Jack is trying to convey to the stewardess that 20 minutes of mile high clubbing in an airplane bathroom stall is the equivalent of 3 hours of passionate love in a bed.
The twenty minutes makes more sense, because that’s how long it took the helicopter to fly off the island to the ship….. while it was a day in the islands time.
Thanks for pointing that out cutlerite :)
