Here’s some questions for you to chew on for this week’s Lost discussion:
Is there really a magic box? Was that Locke’s father or Smokey? Why do leaders have to kill their father? Why does Jacob require that for leadership? Does this support the theory that maybe Jacob isn’t so good?

Here’s an open discussion about the final new episode of 2009 ABC’s updated version of the television series, “V,” titled “It’s Only the Beginning.” New episodes of “V” will be back in March 2010. If you’re reading this and have not yet watched this episode of V then please beware of spoilers.
Let’s discuss!
I wasn’t always this conflicted about the quintessentially American holiday of Thanksgiving.
As a child, Thanksgiving was something like a practice run for Christmas: My parents, my brother, and I would drive to my maternal grandparents’ house for a fun, delicious, and somewhat chaotic celebration with our large extended family. The foods we consumed were not dissimilar to those we would eat at Christmas; the fast-paced, witty conversations we would share were comprised of the same sorts of jibes and teasing exchanged by our stereotypically rowdy Irish family at Christmastime; in fact, the primary difference between Thanksgiving and Christmas to my eight-year-old self was the lack of presents and gingerbread at the former. The company was the same, as was the…

One of the levels of Modern Warfare 2 has recently caught some controversy especially in the wake of the recent terrorist attack in Ft. Hood, Texas last week. The game gives a warning and allows players to skip the level without penalty, however there is no cut scene or anything to explain what happened if you do skip the level. In case you haven’t heard, the level in question puts you in the role of a C.I.A. operative infiltrating a terrorist cell. In order to prove your loyalty, you must participate in a terrorist attack on a crowed airport, which in the…
I want to start out this by saying right away that I do not want Netflix to be involved in this issue. Though I have discovered this issue through Netflix, I do not hold them responsible for what their rating partner writes. I hold Common Sense Media responsible for everything. OK, now I will explain what happened.
So I was taking a look at the rating description for the comedy, The 40 Year Old Virgin and here is one line that Common Sense Media (a movie rating service for informing parents on the contents of films) had to say about the film under the sexual content section that really stood out to me, “Relentless and slangy discussion of sex, some comedic activity, including the…
The Bengals have apparently signed Larry Johnson to a one year deal, as a back up, for now. Already LGBT groups in Ohio were coming out against the signing, but I don’t think it will have much effect. In my opinion LJ is a low class homophobe but that alone should not preclude him from working. He’s not making policy in DC, he’s a running back, nothing more. If I were the Bengals I wouldn’t have touched him with a ten foot pole. He is a destructive force who has no concept of team. Haven’t the Bengals had enough issues that past few years without adding another egomaniacal troublemaker? They have finally righted their ship and now they may be dropping a…

5 out of 5
Modern Warfare 2 doesn’t just pick of where Modern Combat left off, it takes the game to a whole new dimension. Set five years after the fist game in the year 2016, players will find Warfare has truly become modernized, borders have disappeared, uniforms are relics, the battlefields is called the world, war is fought everywhere. Modern Warfare could in fact be seen as wake up call against war as players no longer fight in an unnamed, generic, Eastern European bloc, but instead are called to the front lines in suburbia. Yes you read this correctly, the Russians have invaded…
