So the guy who was the narrator and voice of the Hitchhiker’s Guide* in the film adaptation goes and makes his own futuristic book which is rather hitchhiker-ish. And then he narrates a commercial for it.
I’m hoping to find one more layer of recursiveness in which to make this totally sublime, but I’m content with what we have.
*And now every time I read the book it’s his voice as well.
Seriously these guys look like they’re having a blast while doing something they love. How many people can say that? (I hope you can!)

If you didn’t get the ending to LOST I hope that one day you do. And by “get the meaning of”, I mean of life.
The entire story is an allegory for faith instead if trying to figure it all out and make sense of all the mysteries. (as Jack did for a long time)
The point of how the relationships we have and people we meet are more important than how the smoke monster worked or how the island moves.
It’s a story about people who were lost in life. By the experiences they shared in the adventures on the island they came to find love, loss, hope and courage.
I’m not embarrassed to say that I cried my eyes out after watching the credits roll. I was sad and happy all in the same moment.
And it’s not because I’m going to miss one of my favorite TV shows, but because the story that has been told over the last 6 years through a little box in my living room has reached out to me and made me feel, for once in a very long time, content with my mortality and appreciative of the people I have in my life.
We all die someday and we should spend our precious time on Earth in the company of the ones we love.
Just let go and enjoy.
I’m totally digging the Hipstamatic app for the iPhone. It’s a recreation of a camera developed in the great wilderness of Wisconsin in the early 80s by two brothers. The whole story is being kept alive by the older brother of the two Hipstamatic creators.
The app is very slick and plays a great homage to the cheap all-plastic cameras of yore. With the tiny viewfinder, different films and lenses and the always different results it’s a blast to watch your photos ‘develop’.
The best thing about the app for me is the high-pitched whirring of the flash when you turn it on. Perfect.
