LOST has partnered with CafePress in its final season to allow fans to make LOST merchandise like T-shirts, stickers, mugs, etc, and sell it on CafePress and/or their own shop for free. That is so cool!!

It doesn't stop there!

Hi Losties!

The ODI is back!
Four podcasts have been recorded over the last few months and will be released all before the premiere.


Both Karen and Vozzek are back and we will be hopefully be recording something new soon!

In this podcast Karen joins The ODI in an interview of new cast member of LOST who has a minor role in season 6 (that is what they want us to believe) but is also an actor that has a recurring role on the show Heroes.

Please keep in mind the first half of the podcast is spoiler-free except it obviously reveals who the actor is and for some that is a spoiler. We then discuss their career, their role on Heroes and then talk LOST.

So there are over 40 minutes of spoiler-free talk with a minor spoiler of who the guest is.

So if you don't mind a minor spoiler and really miss us, below the audio player with a download link to the MP3 file.

Welcome back and enjoy!!


PS: A note from Karen...As we head into season 6 and are nearing the end of LOST please note...I STILL HATE SPOILERS and will still stand clear of them.
Just as I always have.



Head over to "The ODI dot com" and/or Karen's LOST Notebook to listen to the podcast!

See you there!

Hi Lostie's!

As we inch closer to the premiere date for LOST all of us fans have kicked our Lostness into overdrive! You can feel the electromagnetism in the air!


Over the break fans re-watched all the episodes and chatted about things they may have missed the first time around or discovered things that made them see the show in a whole new light. That is awesome!


DarkUFO episode re-capper (who hates being called a re-capper. lol) and podcaster over at The ODI, Vozzek wrote a book about the things he and LOST fans never noticed about LOST.

The book is not a reprint of his episode recaps and discussions.  A totally awesome aspect of this book is that it encompasses not only his observations but the observations and theories of fans from all over the LOST world. He neutrally explores many possibilities to the many layers of the LOST story.


LOST enthusiast Jeff "Doc" Jensen of Entertainment Weekly highlighted Vozzek in his "Super-Fan" segment a couple of weeks ago.  You can learn a lot about the man and his book over there.


You can buy the book Things You Never Noticed About LOST at my friend Vozzek's site.   Don't worry about shipping because he ships all over the LOST universe.
Or

You can order from Amazon.com


Or ...{Insert dramatic drum roll here}...
You can win one of three copies right here! Yes Lostaholics, right here! {At Karen's LOST Notebook}
I will hold a Mega Lotto Book Drawing!

Three lucky winners will be chosen simply by dropping your name into the comment section at
Karen's LOST Notebook.blogspot.com/

All the names will be printed out and put into a special Mega Lotto Book Drawing piece of equipment, and three winners will be chosen at random.
Vozzek will even sign and write a note in the book for all three winners.


Let all your friends on Twitter know to follow Karen's LOST Notes/Karen's LOST Notebook and visit her site to add their name to the drawing.

Contest ends January 11 at midnight EST.

So, what have you got to lose? You gotta be in it to win it!


Tell your friends…Karen’s LOST Notebook is having a Mega Lotto Book Drawing!

Hi Losties!

First of all I want to wish you all a Happy New Year!







I wanted to touch base with you about how this long ass LOST hiatus has been going.










The first bit to share is that in my spare time I've been very busy over the past few months moving all my LOST notes from MySpace to Karen's LOST Notebook.

There are two reasons I decided it was best to move my notes and not leave them at MySpace "as is"...


1). So that non MySpace LOST fans could have access to Karen's LOST Notebook.
2). It seems MySpace was having issues with the amount of text and photos I need per post for my detailed episode notes.  This caused all sorts of formatting issues.  So instead of constantly having to struggle with problems re-posting them in full, its best I do that here and just post the links over there.


I am not abandoning my blog at all.  As a matter of fact it's because I want MySpace readers to have my complete notes and photos to use.

Let's face it...I am honest enough to admit I am not a writer and first to admit my notes weren't originally meant to be shared, they are crude, poorly written and I'm also aware sometimes my jotted down thoughts make it hard for some readers to follow.

But long time readers know there was a good reason for my madness and horrible writing as far as my note taking.  I was very sick for a long while, but that couldn't keep me away from connecting with LOST and absorbing myself in the puzzle, playing detective and keeping track of potential clues.  Thus writing down what I could in any fashion while my brain retained any information became my normal standard.


The wonderfully supportive LOST fans and friends over at MySpace stuck through the poorly underdeveloped structure, awful spelling and dreadful grammar of my notes.  Writing ability or lack thereof aside, I totally appreciate each and every one of you for coming back for more insight.
Fans asked if I'd ever go back and put my earliest notes into the format they later became accustomed to, and indeed I did.



Actually this moving process enabled me to add those very important snapshots in LOST time I took for my notes.









It has always been important for me to show that not only clue words, info and photos are consistent, but also my record of things and where potential clues present themselves, has been the same throughout. In other words...those "clues" and bits of info have been there since the very beginning.


The original date I posted the notes at MySpace is on the bottom of the moved notes.


So at Karen's LOST Notebook, over the next few weeks if you find more than one title posted in a single day, it's most likely my older material being moved over.  Please Don't feel compelled to read them, just know they're here for your research if you need.

Here are a few other things that have happened over the break:

* Was not able to attend San Diego Comic Con 2009, but many of you did! There were good times had by all.  Darlton and their team aired a few new advertisements involving a couple of survivors, brought a few handsome men from the cast to hang out with you, made the event extra special by literally sharing the love and creativity of LOST fans and have been on a Fan Appreciation mission of sorts.  And we were introduced to Damon Carlton and a Polar.com

* Damon Carlton and A Polar Bear kept us busy for over 16 weeks while we became art aficionados.

* I recorded a few interviews with special guests over at The ODI that will air soon.

* Put together a LOST University Class of 2010 photo with the help of fantastic fellow LOST fans and friends.

* There were releases of Mysteries of the Universe and sneak peeks for the season 5 DVD's.   You can find my posts on all of these by using the drop down menu.

* My friend Vozzek wrote a book about LOST. Things You Never Noticed About LOST.   You must get yourself a copy!

* LOST University classes began.   After fearing I wouldn't be able to participate in L.U. because I don't have a Blu-ray player and had no plans purchasing one, the Blu-ray DVD set was a Christmas gift so I get to take my classes after all. Thank the island gods for my PS3!


Christmas held a huge surprise for me... A little "Island" magic.
My family and Santa brought me a Dharma lab coat, a Dharma Initiative license plate frame {For my LOST license plate}, LOST t-shirt, Oceanic ornament for the tree, Season 5 Blu-ray DVD's, and an extra special surprise a... Dharma Initiative messenger bag.


This was no ordinary D.I. messenger bag; it contained some of my favorite entertainment magazines and an Oahu visitor tour book.
I was very confused with getting the Oahu visitor tour book and for a split second wondered "Why the hell is my family torturing me?!"

The reason...As much as it is my dream to spend quality time on the island, I knew deep down the reality would be that I would never be able to ever get there.
Well, my hubby had me open the front cover of the book and it was there that held the announcement he booked four days on the island for the premiere.




Needless to say I broke down in total shock combined with massive amounts of joy!
Here's proof in this embarrassing moment caught for posterity. lol!


Yeah, I know...I'm a DORK.









I realize four days isn't enough time for us to do what I want and need to do there, and much of that time will be spent traveling, but at least I will be there.


A dear friend of mine, Vanessa, who knows how much this trip means to me, suggested I journal my voyage.  That is the perfect idea!  So I got myself a journal and will have at least two cameras on me and I will try to document this adventure as best I can.

If you plan on being at the premiere, let me know because I'd love to say hello and grab a photo op with you, even if it's just for a moment! Being excited at the opportunity to be at a LOST event on the actual island with all of you has left me speechless.

Knowing the island is filled with beauty, love, peace, magic, LOST and friends, I know this adventure will be a dream come true for many of us.

Thank you for putting up will my Lostness all these years!

I look forward to meeting you and creating memories that will forever become part of my own personal journey.


Love to all who are "LOST"

Disclaimer: I never claim to know everything about the show and my thoughts by no means make me right! The things I share here are my views and/or opinions. I don't claim to catch every single detail either! You all know I hate spoilers! And I stand clear of reading certain sites as to not take me off my own course of research. The one thing I don't need to do here is rehash all of the obvious clues from an episode; we all know what they are. Understood? Let the fun begin! I'll only note things that I know come up as clues later, but need to be noted when they first show up and things I find that will be of importance.

Hi Losties,

The LOST season 5 DVD release is tomorrow, Tuesday, December 8th!
I hope you all have found a way to acquire yours!
If not...What are you waiting for?!   GO GET YOUR SEASON 5 DVD.




Here is a special peek at a few high resolution photos of Hieroglyphs we've seen on pillars, tunnel walls, and also Jacob's Tapestry for us to investigate.

A few things I'll have to look into further are:

* The symbols may be symbols to different languages and cultures. Maybe some of the symbols relate to Qilak Eskimo, Alchemy, Religious, Ancient Island Warriors, Zodiac, or may even relate to codes or symbolic tattoos.

* I see something that looks like a "seahorse" in one section.

* Although there are two symbols together (One can be interpreted as the Egyptian symbol for the sun), to me it looks more like the number
10.
* There is a large missing section of the tapestry.

* The tapestry shows an "Eye" {Egyptian eye of Horus. Who symbolizes healing and protection} touching a few of the figures, and with two seated beings on opposite sides.  But there also seems to be music being played while figures dance and/or move.   This of course leads me to ask the questions I know you've heard me ask many times before...Who is orchestrating this dance? Who is overseeing this game?
*
Language on the tapestry may be of different ancient languages, possibly including Latin, Greek,
Qilak Eskimo and Basque.
* Red tapestry
.

 Enjoy exploring!!



I would like to give a big Thank You to
Buena Vista Home Entertainment ©ABC Studios and their associate for including Karen's LOST Notebook in all the special previews and sneak peeks for the season 5 DVD!!!

Hi Losties!

Here's a sneak peek from the LOST season 5 DVD. A little insight to LOST University. YAY!!

PHY 101.2: Find out what you'll be studying in LOST University's PHY 101.2 "The Physics of Time Travel" course.

This course is sure to be a favorite of LOST fans all over the universe! This clip contains a bit about "wormholes" that transport you through space and time.

I prefer "shortcuts" to get me from one place and/or time to another place and/or time. It may sound like cheating, but it works nonetheless.

Enjoy your abbreviated lesson!
