Shutting Down The Internet, At Least For Occasional Five-Minute Intervals

Damon Lindelof. I'm pretty sure I don't understand what's going on on "Lost" anymore, but that doesn't make me any less obsessive about it. As I've mentioned before, I'm a loyal listener to the "Lost" podcast with producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, and I'm realizing that Lindelof, in particular, reminds me just how much of my life I've wasted. He's running the most challenging show on television, he's producing the "Star Trek" remake that everyone seems to love and when "Lost" ends, he's writing the screenplay for a movie version of Stephen King's "The Dark Tower," which I'm not afraid to admit occupied about 14 percent of my childhood. And he just turned 36. Meanwhile, most of my friends have trouble getting up before noon on a Sunday. Jerk.
