@Loster21's Tweets O' the Week from December 11-18, 2010

bexmader I’m not allowed to have chocolate before dinner but I just had chocolate for breakfast!! Kid. You. Not. Thursday, December 16, 2010 9:14:08 AM

Just had to lead with that, it was priceless!  And with that I welcome you to this week’s edition of Tweets O’ the Week, home of my favorite LOST tweets from around the Twitterverse.

The standard stuff: THIS IS NOT A SPOILER FREE ZONE so if you’ve not watched LOST from beginning to end, do so and then come back.  Tweets from LOST cast and production are in red, and a list of their Twitter names along with their positions with LOST and current gigs can be found here.

First off, as I’ve continually posted for months here on TOTW, the new film TRON: Legacy was written by Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis, who wrote several of my favorite episodes of LOST.  There were understandably a lot of LOSTie tweets about the premiere on Friday, starting with Adam’s:
AdamHorowitzLA Off to the Tron premiere with @jollychan4. Our first! Saturday, December 11, 2010 5:58:20 PM   WOO HOO Congratulations Adam and Eddy, I DID see it on opening day AND I LOVED IT!!!  Thank you so much for honoring the spirit of the original movie while taking the sequel to a new level.  TOTALLY LOVED IT.

mike_schaub @AdamHorowitzLA @jollychan4 Have fun fellas, can’t wait to see it! Saturday, December 11, 2010 6:06:09 PM in reply to AdamHorowitzLA
LOST_4815162342 http://twitvid.com/YSRGG – @DamonLindelof Greetings, program! You never told us Kisswitz had written you a part #TRONlegacy #LOST Thursday, December 16, 2010 10:08:36 AM

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from March 3, 2010

Still Episode 6 Spoiler Free today, but tomorrow, LOOK OUT!  It’ll be a Special Edition TOTD filled with reactions to the episode!  Today, though, we start out with our favorite tweeting professional basketball playing new LOST watcher:
nate_robinson – Yo michael ain’t dead y’all my bad but he messed up big time #wordaapp lol about 15 hours ago
nate_robinson – I’m only on season 2 y’all relax #wordaapp about 14 hours ago

Here’s the latest crossover theory:

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from March 2, 2010

OK US LOSTies, what did you think?  No worries, as always there are NO SPOILERS FOR THIS WEEK’S EPISODE in the TOTD until Friday afternoon’s post!  I did, however, capture a lot of the tweets posted in response to the episode last night and today, and I’m saving them for a post Friday afternoon.  Don’t miss it!  Until then, some non-spoiler tweets from yesterday:

General LOSTness:
tomwilson23 – I’ve just fallen down a loop hole! Help me!! #Lost 3:51 PM Mar 2nd
Get it? “Help me!!” D’oh! Nice one, Tom.

CarltonCuse – Boston Celtic guard @nate_robinson is watching LOST from the beginning on DVD and tweeting about it. Loving his observations. about 20 hours ago

Here’s an example from a couple of days ago:

nate_robinson – John Locke pops is cold blooded #wordaapp 10:38 PM Feb 28th

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from March 1, 2010

jajajajameson – i keep thinking today is tuesday, then realize it’s not and the disappointment of no new #lost tonight persists 2:29 PM Mar 1st

Well, guess what? IT’S TODAY! Finally!
Or, as Beth put it yesterday,
gjacksbeard – Sundown in 25 hours about 22 hours ago

More from Beth in a minute.  First, LOST in Real Life:

LOST Character Miis for Your Wii

First published 2/26/10 on LOSTblog http://lostblog.com/2010/02/26/lost-character-miis-for-your-wii/

If you have a Nintendo Wii system you know that the avatars you can create for it are called Miis.  You are given a number of choices with hair, eyes, etc, and you can also choose shirt color and give them a name.  I’ve created these Miis for my Wii to look like some LOST characters and posted them on the Check Mii Out Channel, where anyone with a Wii can see them and even copy them to their own systems if they want.
My apologies, there are a limited number of hair styles, etc., so I am continually tweaking them.  If you copied my previous characters, they have all changed but retained the same number, so you would need to re-favorite them if you prefer the updated Miis.  Also, since these photos are of my tv screen, there are some limitations there as well, especially as to color.

All of the Miis on your Wii system will show up in random games.  For me, it’s Wii Fit.  It is so much fun to throw a snowball at Ben while I’m playing Snowball Fight or ride past Richard when I’m doing Island Cycling! If you want to see them on your own system, go to the Check Mii Out Channel on Wii and search the numbers of the characters:

Jack 6965 0522 8505

Kate 8985 6023 3812

I hope you all had a terrific weekend!  Short and sweet today, here are some choice LOST-related tweets from yesterday.  Some remind us of our past:

LaurelSnyder – I was just introduced to #Lost. Crap.
TobyRyan – OH MY!!! HOW?! WHY?! WHA!? Just finished #Lost #Season4

or our future:
kset03 – So help me god, if armageddon or rapture or some bull… happens before #lost ends… I will just go on a murderous rampage.
wales2k – Watching the latest #LOST ep. Knowing it’s the last season makes me a little sad. Will defntly miss those WTF moments.

jaybee63 – Quick note re: Tron Legacy. Story/screenplay written by Eddie Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, two writers from #LOST. It’s a good thing.

Can’t wait to see that!  But some are just plain funny, like this exchange between a writer for Castle and a writer for Warehouse 13 (keep in mind that many writers were put out of work when NBC decided to

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 27, 2010

First published 2/28/10 on LOSTblog  http://lostblog.com/2010/02/28/loster21s-tweets-o-the-day-from-february-27-2010/

My thoughts and prayers to all who have been affected by the earthquake in Chile and the resulting tsunami.  Though for many it ended up being a “dodged bullet,” hundreds were killed and many more were injured or lost homes.  It is to be taken with a sigh of relief that, in Hawaii, it ended up being a non-event.  Until that was certain, however, we were all very concerned about what might happen to our beloved LOST cast and crew who were there.

Having so stated, this is an interesting read.  Damon and Carlton were understandably concerned about their cast and crew’s welfare, @aohora was tweeting about what was actually going on in Hawaii, and @gjacksbeard’s had another perspective on the situation.  FYI, @aohora is a rabid LOSTie and a contributor to LOSTblog who lives in Hawaii, and of course @gjacksbeard is the Twitter account for Jorge Garcia and Beth:
aohora – Network/LOST production don’t NEED an evacuation plan! Grass Skirt Prod isn’t in the zone and they can just cancel shooting everywhere else.
gjacksbeard – Just woke up to tsunami sirens. Heading to higher ground like Stevie Wonder.
CarltonCuse – To ALL on the LOST crew — responding to the Tsunami warning — safe refuge is available at the studio.

Right, let’s just get straight to it, there are a lot to get to, especially as yesterday was LOST day for the UK!  There are definitely spoilers here if you haven’t seen this week’s episode:

eglomb – i made the mistake of creating a search for #lost in tweetdeck. It updates more often than the main feed. i dont know if thats good or bad 2:44 PM Feb 26th
Let me know when you find out.

unoriginal524 – I can’t be the only one who thinks Jacob is hot #Lost 8:49 AM Feb 26th

I can personally assure you that you are not.  But he’s not the only one:

bethan_x_o – jack from #LOST is hot. fact. 1:29 PM Feb 26th
brittanysanft - eating a Hot pocket. Reminds me of #lost. 2:27 PM Feb 26th

An announcement from Carlton:

Here are a few choice LOST-related tweets from yesterday!  Sorry this TOTD is shorter, I’ve been working on a fun LOST-related project that I’m hoping to post on LOSTblog later today, stay tuned… I gotta say, though, I love these:

urwelcom – i feel like a meth addict between binges! its been 2 days and im fiending for more #lost! damn u #damcar !!! about 23 hours ago
dbernstein – Browser problems – I’m totally missing the end of the health care summit! Now I’ll never find out which one is Jacob’s replacement. #LOST about 23 hours ago
mulderism – If the four letter word is… And the reason Jacob was chosen was… It’s amazing how this story can be interpreted in so many ways. #lost about 23 hours ago
JeffHolton – DIET COKE LIME is an anagram of LOCKE MITE DIE. Maybe we should have seen that one coming. #LOST about 23 hours ago
junderwood – Charlie Pace! #thingswewantback — Just thought I’d hop on the bandwagon with this one. #Lost about 18 hours ago

Then some good news, and some EEK news, from LOST production:
DamonLindelof – Guess who just finally got VERIFIED? about 19 hours ago

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 24, 2010

First published 2/25/10 on LOSTblog  http://lostblog.com/2010/02/25/loster21s-tweets-o-the-day-from-february-24-2010/

Hey LOSTies, you posted some great LOST tweets yesterday!  I did actually include a couple of tweets AT THE VERY END that are spoilers IF you haven’t seen THIS WEEK’S EPISODE.  Don’t worry, I’ll put a warning up before you get there.  But come on, watch the episode already!  The first tweet isn’t even about LOST, but it is from our favorite tweeting LOST editor, and I thought it was hilarious:

mjgoldman – & that was just CSPAN! RT @Cory_Bird: Random night of TV..Crazy Island, Mormons in Mexico, 15 year old pregnant chicks..midgets remodeling. 9:37 AM Feb 24th
DamonLindelof – Old Miss is currently voting on their new mascot to replace “Johnny Reb.” And who’s in the lead to replace him? ADMIRAL ACKBAR. 4:49 PM Feb 24th

That’s a Star Wars character, folks!  But apparently Damon heard from a lot of Ole Miss alumni about his misspelling of their alma mater’s name:
DamonLindelof – Apologies to Ole Miss for getting it wrong… I have offended all Southerners on this day and for that, I am deeply sorry. Still. ACKBAR! about 23 hours ago

I loved this coming from Jorge Garcia’s partner Beth talking about their podcast Geronimo Jack’s Beard, probably because I have been climbing a steep technology hill myself lately:

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from 2/23/2010

WOW what an episode! But don’t worry, no spoilers here if you haven’t seen it, BUT GET ON IT WILL YA?  This edition of TOTD starts off with writer and exec producer Adam Horowitz playing with us a little bit.
AdamHorowitzLA – Okay. So Damon’s finally leaving for good. Detroit? Whatever. Have fun there. Thanks for memories. Moving on. 8:59 AM Feb 23rd
DamonLindelof – @AdamHorowitzLA is not talking about ME. 9:19 AM Feb 23rd in reply to AdamHorowitzLA
AdamHorowitzLA – To clarify — JOHNNY Damon 9:31 AM Feb 23rd

Yup, he’s a Yankees fan.  In other news, a tweet from another writer and exec producer about a great article:
CarltonCuse – How Damon and I formed our partnership for LOST. (via LATimes) http://tinyurl.com/ykd4er6 12:58 PM Feb 23rd

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 22, 2010

Happy LOST day, US Losties!  Less than an hour to go for you lucky east coasters!  No worries everyone else, no spoilers for tonight’s episodes on this post!  But you will need to have seen last week’s episode to understand these first two posts, starting with a great one from my boss, the editor of LOSTblog:
LOST_BOSS – I just want to mention that I am not a candidate, if nominated I will not run, if elected I will not serve. 1:01 PM Feb 22nd
echobase77  – #LOST – Jack is no. 23 – Psalm 23 – the Lord is my shephard – Jack Shephard…can’t believe I just realized this… 6:27 AM Feb 22nd
Niickaaa – 23 is my lucky number now #LOSTstuff 2:40 PM Feb 22nd
mbotastic – Seeing Richard Alpert scared and beat up is sort of heart breaking. Such pretty people should never look so bad #Lost 2:44 PM Feb 22nd

And if you heard Damon and Carlton’s official audio podcast posted yesterday, this is even funnier:
YaGottaBKiddnMe – Ok, how long until babies start being named Darlton? #lost 1:39 PM Feb 22nd

A great one from my favorite LOST prop:
SmokinMuffins – When one feels unwell, it’s good to zonk out on the couch and watch classic #Lost. Next ep: The Muffin Behind The Curtain about 22 hours ago

Some shout outs to favorite LOST characters:

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 21, 2010

Hello LOST fans! We regret to inform you, if you didn’t already know, that LOST inexplicably lost to Mad Men at Saturday’s Writers Guild Awards ceremony.  I love Mad Men, but it’s no LOST.  Ah well.  Carlton and Damon each tweeted about the award winners yesterday.  IMPORTANT NOTE: “MF” refers to Modern Family:

CarltonCuse – Congrats Steve and all the MF writers on your WGA Award. So incredibly well deserved. RT @SteveLevitan A very fun night at the WGAs. about 22 hours ago
DamonLindelof – WGA Awards. Yay to Modern Family, House and of course, Mad Men. Losing feels much better when it’s to a show you love. about 20 hours ago

Very gracious.  But Damon’s tweet prompted this response from a fan:

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 20, 2010

I hope you’re all having a great weekend!  Some really fun tweets yesterday…

LOST316 – I keep having Lost dreams all the time..is this normal? 10:08 AM Feb 20th
I hope it’s normal… A great tweet from Jorge (Hurley), life on the island sounds great:
gjacksbeard – Beautiful day. Bike ride and then sushi with Emerson. 1:16 PM Feb 20th

I hope you’ve all had a chance to listen to this week’s podcast by Jorge and Amy, it’s a hoot.  Next, a little shout out from Ben to Star Trek TNG fans like me:

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 19, 2010

Due to some Twitter weirdness yesterday, today’s TOTD post is short and sweet, mostly tweets from LOST production tweeters.  First off, Congratulations to LOST for the NINE Saturn Award nominations:

DamonLindelof – Thank you Saturn Awards! As promised, I will bring a robot as my date to the ceremony. 9:39 AM Feb 19th

And here’s more behind-the-scenes from our favorite tweeting LOST editor:
mjgoldman – Ex.Prods gave notes on their 2nd pass of 611. Very happy; praise 4 Bender. But CC asks “where’s roller skating sc?” DL glad it’s out. Uh-oh. 12:13 PM Feb 19th

Don’t worry folks, I’m sure he was joking about the disagreement, though maybe not about the roller skating scene… Well anyway, here’s the latest from Carlton and Damon, so nice that they’re so concerned about our having access to their podcast:

@Loster21's Tweets O' the Day from February 18, 2010

Yes indeed, I have slightly altered the title of my mostly-daily post.  Yesterday’s post was entitled “@Loster21’s Tweets O’ the Day FOR February 17, 2010.”  Shortly after I posted it, however, I received this tweet:
FlyAjiraAirways – @Loster21 The 17th was two days ago. about 21 hours ago

Understanding that he is in New Zealand and 21 hours ahead of me and therefore needed to cut me some slack, still he made a good point.  The Tweets O’ the Day are from the day before (or how else would I know which were the best of the whole day?) and the title now reflects that.  MOVING ON, still spoilery if you haven’t seen this week’s episode:
tomwilson23 – Would like to announce that I’m a candidate & I’m looking for people to co manage the island with me. #lost
jdkgl – I am scared. Among the examples for “What I cannot find on Google:” is Oceanic 815. #Lost is everywhere. 7:39 AM Feb 18th

Especially when you consider that she’s in Belgium!  Here’s a great series from a Lostie who works for an optometrist:
