Nine months later, and the last season of Lost is here. I just watched the first episode of season 6 (although it was actually a double episode) and now it is a good time to say that I am more confused than ever before
The truth is, I missed Lost. I missed it a lot. But now, I feel a bit scared.
During the past 5 seasons, the producers introduced almost everything in the series: Time travel, ghosts, ancient civilizations, supreme beings, you name it. And most of times, it either made sense, or it was so amazing that you were about to accept everything
Countless hours have been spent on the Internet, on forums, on Lostpedia trying to define theories of what’s going on, how things will work, how is each story influencing the other story, all sorts of conspiracy theories, etc
According to Wikipedia, season 6 will be about multiple universes or multiple time lines. Although i am intrigued by the idea, I am kinda afraid that it will end up badly. And then I will have to cry and I cry really bad

I attended a show by Henry Rollins last week, and one of the jokes he made, got me thinking how screwed we are (we being Greeks). The joke that Rollins made was something like “you Swedes have such a weird language, that you can learn English while driving”. Although funny, I have to say that Swedish are pretty simply, especially when it comes to verbs. Let me illustrate with an example
Let’s take the favorite verb “to love” and try it’s present tense in English, Swedish and Greek
| English | Swedish | Greek |
|---|---|---|
| (i) love | (jag) älskar | (εγώ) αγαπάω / αγαπώ |
| (you) love | (du) älskar | (εσύ) αγαπάς |
| (he/she/it) loves | (han/hon) älskar | (αυτός/αυτή/αυτό) αγαπάει |
| (we) love | (vi) älskar | (εμείς) αγαπάμε |
| (you) love | (ni) älskar | (εσείς) αγαπάτε |
| (they) love | (de) älskar | (αυτοί) αγαπάνε / αγαπούν |
If after this demo, someone wants to argue that Swedish and English are difficult, I m ready to present more examples!

As usual, I was killing time online listening to my favorite Greek radio station, Galaxy
Because of this, I was reminded of a song that I really really really like. It seems that everybody and their uncle have sung this song at some point in their career, but I doubt i could find a better performance than the one linked here
So, here goes, “Con te partiro“, from Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman
PS: The part where Sarah starts singing in English is so amazingly amazing!

When new stuff fall under the category of “epic fail“, one has to return to more traditional values…
Therefore I predict that in the near future I will be watching again “Fight Club“, since, honestly, I can’t find any decent movie released in the past year
In the meantime… Where is my mind? (Amazing song by Pixies, and nice video-montage)

… when you see women like Mini Anden ?
Since today I had the extreme pleasure to watch the Riverdance show live in Stockholm, I can only post something Riverdance related
And if that act does not bring tears in your eyes, there is definitely something wrong with you!
