5. It's quality, not quantity that counts!

7. Define 'quality'.
It's subjective, like everything else in this world. Even laws. :D

8. Hey, here's number 8!
:evilgrin:


I know, it's weird what captures the lounge's collective attention, isn't it?.... :eyes:

My advice: Try not to take it personally, you'll be much happier. :hi:

9. No, that's it. It's all over for me.
If the vaunted Lounge doesn't recognize my stupendousness, what's the point of going on?!?

:cry:

14. Yep, he makes it!
Previews for next week show him talking to the First Lady's assistant. 24 can't kill off everybody this season... can they???? :scared:

17. Think about David and Sherrie Palmer's kids!
Both parents gunned down in separate incidents, both of which occurred during days of extraordinary national emergency. And now their uncle has been targeted!

I'd hate to have to pay for therapy for those poor kids!

20. Are you SURE that was him? I saw the previews, too, and didn't remember
seeing him talking. I thought that was the security guy, instead. (Aaron?) can't remember his name, but the bald white guy, who is really decent.

21. I'm pretty sure Wayne is ok but..
what about Jack? I don't think we'll find out next week what happened to him.

22. If they killed off Jack, they wouldn't have a show.
maybe he'll just get maimed or something. :evilgrin:

It's endlessly amusing to me how we talk about these people as if they really exist! LOL. :rofl:

23. I know what you mean.
I was upset that they killed off Edgar. He was such a loveable loser. :(

But what if this was the last season for 24... Couldn't they kill off Jack then?

26. OMG, IS this the last season?? I hadn't heard that. I hope not!
I only got back into it this season. I watched a lot of Season I, but then couldn't keep up and I'm not into the taping or Tivo thang, so I lost touch with it. The advance buzz on this season has lived up to it's hype. I'm totally hooked. It's basically the only thing I watch on TV, though. My "guilty pleasure."

:)

I suppose they could do anything they wanted to Jack, if it's,indeed, the last season. What else can happen to the poor guy? :shrug: It would be funny to figure out exactly how many times, per episode, he comes close to getting killed. It happens at least once, every week. That's gotta mess with you, after a while.

Poor, poor Jack. :evilgrin:

28. I'm only speculating.
The show has run for 5 seasons. It's had its ups and downs but has been a blast to watch. But I think that whenever the show ends, we won't be given any advance warning (again, only speculating here). That way they could kill off Jack and no one would be expecting it the way they might if everyone knew it was the last season. The writers seem to like nothing more than to do the unexpected... although if I'm thinking of this that means that others are too, so Jack's death wouldn't be unexpected and that would mean that the writers couldn't do it. I'm sooo confused... LOL

10. Maybe you've been seen w/ me
And you're being judged by this association.

Lots of my posts sink w/ one or very few (or even no) reponses.

12. At least you get a reply. I got none to
my 1000th post. Not a single one. I have never seen a 1000th post (dedicated to the milestone) go completely ignored until I pulled it off. ;)

25. I thought so, too.
If you know of anyone else who has pulled it off, let me know - but I think I've got this one all to myself. :)

31. Ah, don't sweat it, thought's appreciated but this isn't necessary.
It was sort of cool being that anonymous, it means I couldn't have stepped on too many toes. :)

27. Except this one, right?
I don't know. I can make 30 posts and get a response to only one or two of them, so if you're asking me, you're asking the wrong person.
