almost lost!

here follows a google chat snippet from last night as i pondered starting the multi dvd pack of lost – the complete first season that chris mundell** lent me.

me: so do you watch lost?
Martyn: funny. ha ha. [dry hollow laugh]
i try not to, but wife sucks me in.
why, do you?
me: no but chris mundell gave me season 1 on dvd
Martyn: I think the show is stupid.

a little later, i turned the box over and noticed that the total running time is 1068 minutes.
holy moo! martyn just saved me 1068 minutes! that’s a lot of hours folks!
thanks martyn.

** warning: there is a strong chance that you will spend at least 15 min if you follow this link to chris’ funny site.

  1. Gimme back my DVD’s!!!

  2. well, i have no tele neither, my mate. whassis about? lost something? don’t think i’ll lose any sleep over losing out on this show, do you? i mean, shouldn’t i rather be out there taking pictures?

  3. well, i have no television. however i do have an old video monitor that i will hook up to the cheap dvd player that my friends insisted i take. they then bought me arrested developement season 1&2. i find it f’ing hilarious! if all television was this funny i’d probably get one. but it’s not. ….and that saves me more time than i could possibly calculate.

  4. yeah I love watching LOST.

  5. LOST is the best show ever!!!

    It is addicting and tons of theory boards going on.

    I think you need to take the 1068 and times it by three to make a proper investment into the show for season one.

  6. Greg, you and Martyn have wasted thousands of minutes expounding the universal significance of the South African Rugby squad. It’s just a fun way to connect and ponder life. You really only need to watch the 2 hour pilot to DECIDE FOR YOURSELF if it’s worth another 16hrs.

  7. ur missing out on the best 1068 minutes of your life…
