The last episode of LOST

Jeremy Benforth ... John Lock
What an episode. Life is so unfair! Now I have to wait until the next year to know what happens next ... LOL ... So, Ben is scheming to get everyone back to the island which by the way is LOST. See, Ben never had a real life outside of the island, with his cheesy dialogues, "Don't you know John, I always have a plan" or "How would I know, I lived on a island all my life" He does not have ESPN sports or lavish ski trips to go to or hiking trips or biking around his favorite part of town...See Ben, is a loser; His only form of entertainment is moving around islands, time traveling and playing the role of an arch rival. For all we know he is being chased by a debt collector. Now he wants to escape again. But he doesn't know where to escape since he LOST the island. To make everyone else's live miserable again he will make it back to the island. And guess what the OTHERS will say when they see him, "oh, NO , not him again! Leave us be, enough of your cheesy dialogues and stop moving the island around, would you? It makes my head spin" Jacob would tell him, "I had to move the whole island and still you came back, don't you get it! You are not welcome!" Alright, alright, now for my favorite scenes of the episode...drum roll please ... Penny and Dez; Awww, what a pleasant surprise. And finally, we know what happens to John. John's character is still as annoying as Ben's, but at least Ben's get lots of dimensions. John is just so confused all the time. Annoying. I have to say I will miss Ben's cheezy dialogues, Jack, Sawyer, Aaron, Penny, Dezzy and Dan. Until the next season then.

NickleBack - If Everyone Cared

"If Everyone Cared"

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive

[Chorus:]
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died

And I'm singing

Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
(I'm alive)

[Chorus x2]

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died...

[Chorus]

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died

My dedication to the late Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body.

Proverbs 31:30

“Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.” (Proverbs 31:30)

Superb Qawali - Neray Neray by BJS

Must see! The new generation of Qawals.

--- LOST --- episode 2/22/08

Aaron...Aaron...Aaron!
Kate's baby- is Aaron! That has got to be the biggest twist of the season. Why doesn't Jack want to see the baby? Why is Kate so attached to Aaron? Finally, Kate's mother came to her senses and recede her testimony, and no wonder Kate does not want her mother to meet Aaron; Aaron's not Kate's baby! John - oh John, honestly, I started hating that character since the day he joined teams with Benny boy. I think John's character is losing momentum; he seems to be desperate and LOST, precisely why we must have much to see from his character soon as he does seem to resound the theme of the series. Great show, I am glad I caught up to the season 4 in time, thanks my colleague Ivan :)

Sharper Image closing stores; files bankruptcy

Sharper Image is filing bankruptcy; closing down half of it's stores nationwide, sad news. I love shopping in Sharper Image, always finding innovative products for gifts or pampering myself :) I hope my mall's store stays open; plenty of support here. I wish them all the best.

Daily Devotional - Beautiful words of Christ

Matthew 6:31-34, 7:1-1231) " Therefore do not be anxious, saying, `What shall we eat?' or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?' 32) For the Gentiles seek all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33) But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well. 34) Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day. 7:1) Judge not, that you be not judged. 2) For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. 3) Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4) Or how can you say to your brother, `Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye? 5) You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye. 6) Do not give dogs what is holy; and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under foot and turn to attack you." 7) " Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8) For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9) Or what man of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? 10) Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? 11) If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him! 12) So whatever you wish that men would do to you, do so to them; for this is the law and the prophets."

VMware - run multiple operating systems on one machine

VMWare server is freeware which allows one machine to run multiple operating systems. This gives you the flexibility of running Window, Linux, or any other 32bit/64bit chip processor OS on which ever one machine you choose. Comes in real handy when you are not ready to migrate instantly to another OS; instead you can test drive it on a Virtual Machine. I will share thoughts about ease of use/install once I have completed an install of Windows XP Pro on a virtual machine on my laptop which currently runs Vista.

~ Harry Potter - The Deathly Hallows ~

I could'nt have put it better, "The main reason I like reading the Harry Potter books is because they allow me to escape the real world and imagine what school (and life) would be like if we were able to use magic. " states Daniel Gonsalves in his article about the upcoming Harry Potter's final book of the series. I am just as anxious and ready to visit Hogwarts again :)
