Apophenia

Some things I’d like to think took inspiration from Timely Persuasion, but probably didn’t: LOST – “Across The Sea” The recent “Across the Sea” episode of LOST features two nameless main characters.  The only named character in TP is Nelson, the alleged bad guy. But is he really bad?  The only named character in this…

Ramblings IV

Been re-watching LOST in anticipation of the final season.  Finished off Season 1, then decided to jump straight to Season 5 presuming these two will be the most relevant to Season 6.  I’m still impressed with how well the time travel was handled in a “Whatever Happened, Happened” sort of way last year.  Biggest hindsight…

ARG(hhh!) Again, Naturally

Here we go again. Back in November I wrote a post that detailed my small brush with infamy related to DarmaWantsYou.com.  This week saw the stars align for another 15 minutes of fame that felt worthy of revisiting.  The rough timeline: February 29, 2008 Timely Persuasion is released.  The book includes 2 hidden easter eggs…

Below are some interesting excerpts, along with my own “commentary on the…

Ramblings I

In the spirit of the early years of the Pearl Jam Xmas Single, here are some tangentially on-topic thoughts not big enough for their own posts: I’ve been having recurring dreams (and/or daydreams) where M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel (aka She & Him) cover “Start Choppin’” by Dinosaur Jr., trading verses in an acoustic duet. …

ARG(hhh!)

I’m a big fan of the TV show LOST.  I’m also a bit of an Internet geek. So when they pulled these two concepts together in their nearly annual Alternate Reality Game (ARG) between seasons I was quite excited — especially when they hinted at more time travel in the video that kicked it off….
