My first LOST Discovery!

Hello Fellow Bloggers...

//DISCLAIMER//  
 If you have not seen the season 4 finale of LOST, then disregard the following post. Mindofbert.com and it's affiliates will not be held responsible for spoiled episodes or emotional distress caused from reading this post. Furthermore, if you do not watch LOST and do not even care about the show than continue reading post. 
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!  (ipastor)

As many of  you know, LOST is quite an exciting show that has crazy twists and turns. Every now and then there are little details in the episodes that most people don't catch until you re-watch the episode or slow it down (Like the writing on Charlie's hand in the beginning of season 4). Well, ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to say that I have finally discovered one on my own. Now don't get me wrong, I'm sure many other people have discovered this. But no one I know!!

In the season 4 finale, as you all remember Martin Keamy straps a heart rate monitor to his arm which is linked to a C4 Bomb on board the freighter. Now, while we were watching the episode a few weeks back at Carlos' house and Martin first flashes his "heart rate monitor" I immediately yelled out, "Hey that looks like a guitar tuner!" The only one that seemed to agree with me at the time was Yoel (And they wonder why bassists are so smart). Well a few days back I was re-watching the finale and when I saw the "heart rate monitor" I remembered that it looked like the tuner so I paused it and examined it. The guitar tuner it reminded me of was a Korg Guitar/Bass tuner that I happen to own. After carefully comparing the two I discovered that I was wrong. The item on Martin Keamy's arm was not a Korg Guitar Tuner. It was actually a Korg Metronome. That's right people, the Genius prop artists for LOST decided to use a $30.00 Cheap metronome that you can find at any music store, painted it gray, added some designs and a flashing green light and VOILA you have just made yourself a C4 detonator/Heart rate monitor. Seriously though look at the two pictures very carefully and you will see that they are literally identical. The buttons, the screen, the arch on the side, and even the moving needle are exactly alike. 




So there you have it folks. I have discovered my first LOST hidden detail. Now I don't think this detail will help us or give us any clues (e.g.  Martin bought it at a guitar center in L.A. where Charlie happened be to working at the time as a guitar salesman) but still I thought it was pretty cool.

Friend of a friend!

Hello Fellow Bloggers...

As many of you know, a few months ago, I attended a "Lost Launch Party" with a small group of people from my former church's worship team. Well, I got an interesting email today from a dear friend, Ernie, who also happens to be former FRC worship team member. I figured that rather than explain it to you, I would show you the email.

Greetings my friends and fellow LOST devotees!

I have a friend from high school who happens to be a first cousin of Josh Holloway. I sent her the pictures from your awesome premiere party, and she forwarded them to him. He was kind enough to send back an autographed picture for the FRC worship team. I'll mail the original but here's a scan of it.

Enjoy the new episode tonight. I love and miss you all very much!


-Ernie

How awesome is this! Thanks Ernie!

I think Sawyer is now my favorite lost character!

Cool Toys

Hello Fellow Bloggers...

I recently found these pictures on my phone. I found these action figures at the mall while Christmas shopping this past December. Are these the coolest dolls or what?

Bold Confession

Hello Fellow Bloggers...

Well, there is no easy way to say this so I'll just come out and say it.

I am in Love with Miley Cyrus a.k.a Hannah Montana!!!

Wow that felt good to get off my chest. You see less than a month ago, I had no idea who Miley Cyrus was and didn't really care. But when I we were on our way to winter camp this year, they ran out of movies to play on the bus so they just busted out the Hannah Montana dvd. I figured, "what the heck. Let's see what the big deal is with this chick". All I can say is that show is freaking hilarious. Well after coming home from camp, I made the mistake of looking her up on youtube and now I can't get her songs out of my head. They sure are catchy...and positive (which is rare these days). So there you have it. I am a Hannah Montana fan. There I said it. Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Lost Party

Hello Fellow Bloggers...

Well, I was planning on blogging about my experience at a recent Lost party I attended this past Thursday, however since I took so long to do it, some fellow bloggers beat me to it so I figured that rather than tell you myself, I would let you guys read about it from them. Check it out here and here. All I would like to say is KUDOS to Michelle Garcia for planning the coolest Lost Party I have ever been to. Actually it's the only Lost party I have ever been to. Her creativity just amazes me. She is actually the "Famous Designer" that made me my tuxedo shirt I wore to the My Naked Pastor launch party. It ended up being pretty popular and people couldn't believe it was handmade. Thanks Mickey!!...Oh yea and the second half of the party was Rock Band. All I would like to say about that is you absolutely cannot play Rock Band or Guitar Hero without Kyle Johnson!

My New Favorite Show
Hello Fellow Bloggers...
Ok, so we recently upgraded our cable package to the "basic expanded" package. What does this mean you ask? It basically means that now instead of having 22 channels, we have like 5o something channels. Due to my extremely busy schedule, I don't really have much time to watch TV, but now I am totally hooked on an awesome show. It is called Survivorman and is a documentary about a man named Les Stroud, who basically dumps himself in the wild for seven days without food, shelter, water, or tools. Oh yea and no camera crew. That's the coolest element of the whole show. He is his own cameraman, and does all his own shots. He has survived in some pretty wild places such as the Kalahari Desert, The African Plains, and The Arctic. I have found myself glued to the TV for hours watching re-runs of old episodes and am absolutely amazed at the things this guy does. He will eat and drink whatever he can find (and I mean anything) and he will live wherever he can find or make some sort of shelter. I'm not exactly sure what time it airs but until I could get Tivo I'll just keep catching up with re-runs.
